This is a question Annoying words and phrases

Marketing bollocks, buzzword bingo, or your mum saying "fudge" when she really wants to swear like a trooper. Let's ride the hockey stick curve of this top hat product, solutioneers.

Thanks to simbosan for the idea

I know
I hate some parts of my country, where there is not a single shop or restaurant with someone able to speak Spanish. I've decided not to go there anymore. And that's the same people who complains. Ey, maybe they'll all get skin cancer at the same time :/

Try saying the same about Bradford, Tower Hamlets, or somewhere similar
without being labelled a racist twunt, then muse upon your double standards.

Oh, I don't mind them living in Spain
What I don't like is them complaining about foreigners when they're foreigners themselves. It seems they fail to see that.

And I don't like that there are parts of my country where I can't speak the language. I'd never think of going living somewhere if I can't talk the native language, even if it's only a little bit.

I've never been to Bradford
But maybe I should go and visit. It might make me feel like at home.

And I suppose
You're a racist twunt

Damn you

You vote BNP, don't you?
I knew.

Everybody in England should speak Spanish!

I think this calls for a new political party
British National Spanish Party.

Although I wouldn't fit in as I don't speak Spanish.

Oh, it´s easy
Even I can talk it.

And Sunday lunches will be replaced by Sunday tapas.

I like your thinking...

Just out of interest....
did Hernan Cortez bother to learn Inca?

Yeah
He had a Berlitz tape which listened to on the way over

We wouldn't want to repeat the same errors
Would we? And you can't imagine how many times we've said sorry and how much money we've given their corrupt goverments to pay for our faults.

However, we can talk about India, New Zealand, Australia, USA... They all keep their original languages, don't they?

Whatever they speak in the USA
I'm fairly certain it's not English.


Anyhow, squashing the Inca was more or less a global public service, murderous bloodthirsty pagans that they were... As a general rule, if you sacrifice multiple thousands of people in the course of a a single 'celebration', you more or less exempt yourself from humanity.

A way of thinking about it
Is that they would have exterminated themselves anyway. However, we left most of them alive (mainly females and as slaves) and their descendants, who are mainly Spanish by now, still claim that all the problems in their countries are our fault.

And people from the States might not speak English, however, they have a way of pronouncing they "r" that really turns me on. Having said so, I just like so much listening to English speaking. There is something that makes my skin go like chicken. It's a big problem when talking with my boss.
