Well, blame the Belgians. They came up with that stuff some eight years ago.

Hey, wait! You have a TV? Or did you throw it out after you set your 
eyes on this wooden shoe dance for ADD sufferers?

Apparently it all has to do with some French speaking woman that says 
"non" every time someone asks her to dance.

That's what you get with them French speaking people. They also have no sense of humor. No, for real. I 
mean, yo, dawg, have you ever seen a French person in Aglami?!

No no, you're confusing folklore here. The presents rammed down the chimney are the stuff that's being 
put into your shoes. The real thing though, the presents that actually matter, are delivered by Zwarte 
Piet in a jutezak at the front door.

Jaques Tati, Bourvil, Louis de Funes, Fernandel, they all died before 
Aglami came into existence. So, no, I can't say I have ever seen a 
(funny) French person here.

Doesn't it make you wonder whatever happened to all French speaking 
people with some sense of humor? Do they all die before reaching Aglami?

Apparently they first try to hang out in one of them fr. newsgroups and I think that is where they die as 
well. Have you ever been to fr.? It looks like a graveyard over there.

I once had a teacher that made copies of gravestones. I tend to see

Hmmm, after googeling I'm not even that far off. It seems to have to do

Nope. I wasn't too old for CnC, PPG, Pinky and the Brain, Dexter's Lab, 
Batman or any cartoon really. As long as it makes me laugh. Also: all 
those cartoons had a second layer that was aimed at the older 'kids'.

Second layer? I guess I never understood those. Then again, I never really matured beyond the age of 8!

HK English is funny anyway. There was this guy asking us what we thought about the "wheel". Several 
minutes later, after the wheel was gone from the bus window, he spelled it out and it appeared he meant 
"view".

Take the THX 1138 references in Pinky and The Brain. Not to mention the 
whole Orson Welles thing that's going on with Brain. There aren't many 8 
year olds getting those references.

I've ran in to a couple of those things too. But mostly with foreigners 
trying to speak Dutch. Or me trying my hand at writing what some 
foreigner was saying.

One that pops into my mind now was the word 'fine'. Some Polish people 
were using that word to describe stuff they liked. But when I wrote it 
down, they asked me "what does that strange word mean". Apparently they 
think it should be spelled faine. They also use the word handy for cell 
phone. They didn't get that from English, but German. Of course I was 
thinking they were talking about something or person that's handy.

But 'no' takes the biscuit. It means yes in Polish. Although yes is 
actally 'tak' in Polish. It's a dialect word from the south and it's 
mostly used to confirm you've understood something. It's quite a shocker 
when they say 'no, no, no' when you're hoping to hear you understood 
what they were trying to say.

Come to think of it, "handy" is really a terrible word. I hate it when Germans say that.

No, no no! Which south of Poland was that? The south I've been to they all said tag. But then again, they 
were young people so they probably didn't speak the dialect.
