Except Blair is a proper noun, and you don't usually translate proper nouns.

But when we say: "T'es un blair, LOAF!", we mean "You're a dope, LOAF!" (just an example of course... ;) ).

It was just a play on words which sounds better when you say it, because the problem of the CAP in B[/b]lair is no more... :-)

To give you more material to pick on <G>, the actual full word is "blaireau", which is a slow, large animal... a bit like you, LOAF... ;)

I think it's kind of weird that he (Blair) took so long to get to his marine shuttle...it was right behind him...he could of ran, hopped in, and got out before that big bad bug could get him...
 
The bug attacked him while he was heading back to the shuttle, and then an explosion threw him off balance.
 
yeah, but before he was stupid and decided to check out that dead guy, he had plenty of time...
 
most would call that compassion... not stupid... he didn't know he was going to get attacked like that... he figured he could check *and* escape.

I guess i was being a bit harsh on the poor old man... so, do you guys think he survived? He did have the gun pointed straight at the bug's head when he dropped...

P.S. I know this is a worn-out topic... but what the heck...
It's still interesting to discuss
 
We're not supposed to talk about that :)

Still, I think he's dead -- even if he killed the bug Warlord, he still has the explosive decompression to deal with...:)
 
There are different classes of bugs: regular, warlord, mother creature -- and so forth, and so on. The official guide confirms that the one which attacks Blair is a warlord -- the *same* warlord who captured him earlier in the game.
 
I've got a warlord. It's an ant, he started giving me some shit about how he's soem supreme warlord of bumblefuck the ant kingdom and I'd better give him some damn sugar or he'll kill me. He's currently suffocating underneath an empty pepsi can.
 
Cruel...poor ant.

One day the ants will rise against you TyeDye! I've saved many an ant...and the Mother Creature will remember me :)

...and probably digest me...
