Titolo: [forse OT]75 indizi per cui potresti essere un metallaro

d'umorismo (alcuni sono forti).
E' in inglese ma era troppo lungo da tradurre, a proposito scusate per la
lunghezza del messaggio.

None can teach you, it's all inside

MINCHIA!!!!!!! E' VERO! Conosco quel logo da almeno dieci anni e me ne sono accorto

Divertente! Molto anni '80 (e non so quanti capiranno certi riferimenti, qui), ma
