I'm not sure the Catholic Church would agree that Martin Luther changed everyone's opinion.

Yeah, I do. I'm really lazy and need some pressure to get going. It also gives me this nice kind of thrill and clarity. I also really enjoyed doing exams and tests in school and at uni.

That being said, I don't think I could deal with a constant pressure. Every now and then is nice to get this thrill and to get validation when doing well. But under constant pressure I would burn out quicker than a barn doused in gasoline.

From the line "Never gonna run around and desert you" we can gather that when a relationship came to an end, the person ending the relationship would run around frantically and burn all possessions of their former partner, thus turning their property into a desert, or "deserting" them.

In a few thousand years...

"We finally deciphered the text on it. It's a monument to love, to undying loyalty and affection! How amazing! Here, it reads: 'Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down'"

It should be a very short glance though...

Die haben da Klopapier? Bei mir an der Schule war das so ab 9:15 Uhr immer leer. Und diese schrecklichen Stoffrollen-Handtücher einmal durchgelaufen.

Well that sure is a bit larger than a church.

Interesting question. Are we talking about the volume or the floor area? For volume maybe a church? Then St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City would be the largest. I don't know the layout though, but I assume a large portion of it is the main "room".

Or do stadium with a roof count? Then maybe one of these?

Edit: I don't think I really thought this through. I was thinking too much of more roomy rooms. Most convention centers probably have larger exhibition halls.

Coffee can reduce how much iron get's absorbed. This doesn't have anything to do with the caffeine and the resulting stimulation though, but with something in the coffee binding the receptors or something like that. Don't know if this happens with other nutrients as well.

Mostly puffing up their feathers. On warm days they are suddenly smaller again.
