(Language) Lounge Incest = England Wins

[100%]

I have noticed as of late, that members who are not in anyway related by nationality to England nor Wales, have subtly been throwing in some clicheish loik wurds.
Not only that, their grammatical structure, in the perfection of creating humor has this tendency also.

you know this to be true.


With a domination of Americans on the board, it is indeed surprising that England and Welsh slang should be most influencial.

It merelly emphasizes that the international members (ambassadors if you wish) from all over the world are characters with open minds and are interested in other peoples culture and know how to adapt to their surroundings.
(or are simply dweebs with no self thought).

There is no need to panic,
nor reajust your seating,
since
we are after all, in this forum, writing in the english language (your advantage), which obviously is the forte of those who's mother's lullabied them to sleep daily.

The other winners (those with english handicap) could have been;
US English
Auzzi English
CanadiaEnglish
FrenchIngleesh
GambianEnglish (& other colonies)
PenguinEnglish

Congratulations
:01:

Now, that's just a wee-bit imprecise.

[Mr. Mulder]

He said wee :blushing:

[j2k4]

I don't really believe there is a "domination of Americans" in the applicable area(s), Zed.

I don't know the exact numbers, but I'm quite sure there are at least several more participants (of those one would consider "active") from the eastern side of the pond.

As to the "wee" bit:

As a great admirer of things British(ish) all my days, I am greatly pleased to express to all of my U.K. board brethren my sincerest admiration for confirming all of my best and most accurate imaginings.

Having said that, I will forego any self-examination having as it's goal the determination of whether or not my use of the adverbial or adjective "wee" has British-influenced origins.

Now, having said that, I will also forego any inclination to deny that it is true. :)

Finally, I heartily contest the contention or implication that I don't have an open mind.

Every idea expressed in this forum is taken for the consideration it is due.

Some are better than others-what can I say? :snooty:

[JPaul]

"Wee" is Scottish. Fact.

My statement was meant to indicate that the areas where such differences are most evident (the Lounge and Drawing Room) are more heavily peopled by the gregarious U.K. crowd.

If you can check your stats for that, well...

What do the percents look like if you don't include the 87 percent of registered users that have one or less posts? To me it seems most of the people that are more well known here seem to be Canadian.

[JPaul]

Indeed, agreed and agreed.

The well known chaps here are the sons of Canadia.

[Jagarga]

the canadian lol boys have to be taken into account.

[JPaul]

the canadian lol boys need a kick in the cunt

Fixed

Those are unique hits, nothing to do with membership or posts. So it stands to reason that USA would have the most hits, what with you being a more populous country and all.

My experience of the off-topic areas of the board are that they are predominately British (though manker and Jpaul's sockpuppets probably make up about 50% of the British members). I think there are more Canadians than Americans round these parts but it's hard to tell, the lolboys tend to bend into one another.

Which was my only point.

I'll take your impression as confirmation, if you don't mind. ;)

[Snee]

Aboot, lololololol.

Eh?

[Proper Bo]

hoi, cockchops, it's not just canadiaians who say aboot:snooty:

[Snee]

Pffft, you are only saying that 'cos you don't want to admit to being of canadian heritage.

Only canadians say aboot. Fact :snooty:


Cockchops, cawksmuggler? :unsure:
