OT Rant. Don't read if it offends you
[QUOTE=Sxxxx;1802419]There are sections of England where the accent is so heavy I don't know what they are talking about either. All countries have their own accent, when they speak English. Irish can be pretty tough. Talk about the girls not being able to speak understandable English is just crazy. I don't have that trouble at all.{S N I P} When you take the bus to AC, you can see caribous collapsed in the fields!{S N I P}[/QUOTE]Hi S,
Are you sure that there are reindeer in PI? Or do you mean the De Havilland Canada DHC-4 cargo carrier (pictured below in use at an upmarket resort). They often 'crash' in the fields.
The English 'dialects' that I find impossible to understand, come out of N. America and with appalling grammar such as [I]"I gotten off of the bus"[/I]! [b]gotten[/b]!!! [b]off of[/b]!!! WTF? And many African Americans are utterly impossible to understand. So much easier to understand African British or African Australian or even African African (f**king political correctness gone stupid)! ABCs (Australian) refer to Australians of caucasian ethnicity as ' Skippies' in a totally derogatory fashion, yet we are being racist if we admonish them!
Oh, for the days of Sir Arthur Calwell (an Australian Politician) who said in 1949 [I]"Two wongs don't make a white"[/i] (referring to a case of mistaken identity of Chinese named Wong).
BTW, I notice that Obama often has a bulletproof screen in front of him when he gives speeches. Who are they afraid that he is going to shoot? Just wondering!
Back to sitting at the bar (in Hua Hin) snacking on NiggerBoy liquorice and thinking about the good ol' days (at least my 24yo Chinese porcelain doll buys me new clothes and cooks delicious Cantonese, Hunan and Sichuan style meals).
Ikks.
