To pronounce words in a foreign language correctly would be to embrace multiculturalism. That kind of thing just isn't done here :sneaky:

Funny thing about multiculturalism is how spanish speakers would rather not learn how to say it in English.. or American.
Sorry, I'm not feeling PC today.

First you bum a fag, then you go outside and smoke the fag...:eek:

And the faggots chips & peas debacle came about when discussing food - some coworkers were genuinely curious to know if we ate the same kind of food back home - and if it was true that food back home was tasteless shit etc... Some guy came in part way through the conversation and got the context wrong - arsewipe.
