my innermost sanctum

fucked-up logic?

snooped around a blog of an ignorant expat bint of a bird, newly arrived 'ere on the wee islet to accompany her partner - erm, married to someone else - who's posted here.

started bloggin only to criticise just anything and everything about the islet, and it doesn't help matters that the title of each whinge must have the word SIN. which is airline terminology for the islet.

and which of course she takes pleasure in taking jibes at it. which methinks is a tad too much. yeah comin from me who also derive pleasure from takin potshot's at my fellow wee islander's.

the hypocrisy irony.

what got me goat is her queryin if wee islanders speak english to one another "on purpose" or "accidentally" - whatever that means - just because the islet appears chink to her, she wondered that by speakin english, the natives surely don't have any cultural identity whatsoever.

reet. so if i speak fluent welsh, that means i have no sense of cultural identity whatsoever. and worse if i happen to speak batak, navajo AND zulu as well. which makes me a complete fucked-up git.

so yers truly "explained" to her that english is the language of instruction at all school's 'ere. apart from it being a former british colony and that there are other races inhabiting this islet. besides, having malay neighbours doesn't warrant mandarin bein the national tongue.

now looking at that last statement, anyone with half a brain could somehow draw the conclusion that em ethnic chinks are not original inhabitant's - ie: of immigrant stock - innit?

no, not this bint. she told me that if i ain't chuffed with wot i read, i could very well fuck off. very polite that. and then get this, to another commenter, she replied that she was perplexed that there's a chinatown. given the majority chinese population 'ere. unlike in hong kong where she last stayed, the only "chinatown" she came across is a bar with that name.

this comin from someone who claimed to have a masters degree. and no, i'm not linking to her as i don't wish her to benefit the increase in readership.

also, it makes me wonder if she's somehow threatened by the fact that chink's here understand her rant's well. unlike em hongkonger's. not to mention, them shatterin the myth/image of the dirt-poor and dumb asians such that she could no longer speak english loudly and slowly like a complete spastic.

or hurlin a swear word or three at their direction's.

i said this 'cos i had encountered not a few western twats askin me, "why are you speakin english to each other? why don't you speak your singaporese [eh, wot the fuck is that? singaporese?? the bollock's they could come up with]"

my reply: "why, you've got a problem? or are you disappointed that there ain't no tales to regale your friends back home with imitations of our funny-accented engRish? twattin cunt."

oh yes, i lurve it when em delusional imperialist trash go blue in the face.
