I swear a lot in person, but in writing, if you have to resort to language that less advanced minds might find offensive, for reasons that are altogether arcane yet fascinating, it generally shifts the mental juxtaposition of the onlistener towards the inclination of belief that you posess a substandard development of elevated eloquence.
Which, for reasons that should be clearly obvious, even to a casual observer, is an undesirable impression to leave on fellow inmates (eh, sorry. Forumites).

I personally think Swearing is "bloddy" alright, but from my past experience I thought it was prohibited to use lang like that in here ....
But now I know its ok;) |

Pedro, and with a name like that I was going to get comfortable and start answering your posts in Spanish.

And (crying) no Spanish ...

Some of it is German, Some of it seems to be either Dutch (as in Netherlands), or Flemish which is similar to Dutch (but Dutch would be my first guess). There is also some English.

When we start making fun of each other's dialects/etc. it ceases to be funny folks. |

when we make fun in 'fun' it's extremely funny.. It's when it's done in ignorance and / or malice that it isn't funny..
btw why call it a bathroom in a bar? I can't remember the last time I went for a bath in a public bar...
Why call it a restroom? I'm not going for a rest.. It's a toilet or a WC or more colloquially (sp?) the bog... |

I was thinking it John, but didn't say anything about it. It really is a shame though.

Actually - I don't think it does stop being funny! It's only when it's meant to be malicious that it turns nasty. After all, most comedians make their career out of a bit of friendly xenophobia!
Everyone needs to chill out and take things with a pinch of salt really. No one would be this edgy if we were talking face-to-face after all.
Anyway, it's time for a fag and a scratch of my fanny (or am I mixing my linguistics here?). ;)

You could be right - so, for the record - I'm not a gay hermaphrodite!

Great B&W Pic. But you cant tell that its in a Bar. It would have done real good in a Self portrait. |
