In response to Re Good Shanghai Language Mills/Schools (paul fox)

Awesome!

In Australia, white South African people are known as 'Yarpies'. This is because they have a tendency to say 'Yar' instead of 'Yes'.

Instead of 'Parking their car', they 'Pork their core' and when buying sheets and pillows they ask for 'bidding' for their 'bid'.

As far as being 'well-adjusted', the only time they are successful in that regard is when they are 6-feet under.

Even crappy training centres are too good for such 'deechers'.

When we try to analyse white South Africans, we should be aware of colonial history in that part of the world. The British empire builders encountered much resistance from the Boers, the Boer Wars. The Boers were white too, and came from Holland or Belgium to settle the Orange Free State, amongst other parts of SA. The Boer language was similar to German, and Germans say 'ya' to mean yes. Inter-racial marriages between Boers and Brits must have taken place as time went on. I think Neil could be the son of such a marriage, and feels he should point out he is well-adjusted to differentiate himself from white Boers, who tend to be farmers who like squaring up to people they dislike.

As for crappy training centres, I wouldn't want my worst enemy to teach there, even if he were a deecher!!
