Re: I saw something rather shocking today...
I thought that silly excahnge with MM was an evasive tactic, so I assumed you were about to cry.
You brought up being scared, so I assumed you were scared.
I thought you were a scared ****, but it turns out you are just a ****.

Re: I saw something rather shocking today...
you mean 'asterisks'?
Not much of a private school, was it?
As for the asterisks, the point was to offend, so just go ahead and feel offended. I'm not going to spell it out for you.

Re: I saw something rather shocking today...
While at Emarat after work for coffee and a pack of cigarettes (don't get judgemental, it was too tempting to start smoking again in Austria and I swear I will stop this weekend).
A little Emirati girl about age 8 comes up to the bakeria counter while I'm waiting for the coffee, and asks ever so politely to the Filipina girl for one of the plastic cup covers.
The Filipina hands over the requested cover.
The Emirati girl beams and says very genuinely:
'Thank you!'
I kid you not. I was floored. Left my mouth hanging open in shock.
I don't think I've ever heard an Emirati thank a Filipina worker before...

When I was a kid in AD, I was experimenting (for fun with friends) with trying to make F cuk You sound like Thank You but the recipient would still be left thinking that he might have heard f cuk You .

I must admit... it's a funny game and once that is occasionally played by the Millhouses.

I have no problem with them but they are not well thought of here...I think it's because they did'nt let our long range bombers fly over their country on the way to bomb another country once- and people here are still holding a grudge over it.
