lets talk a little bit about the society.
society is a funny thing.
FOR EXAMPLE if i list out on my blog what i think are the top five schools with the best looking girls. the society will view my blog and say that i have too much testosterone in me.
however, if i write about top five schools with best looking guys, then society will say i am gay
but if i write about the top five schools with the best looking guys and top five schools with the best looking girls, then society will look at my blog, and say that i'm bisexual.
thing about society is most of the stuff you say, you can't win. society likes to judge people. they have nothing better to do really. the only things you can say are politically correct things, and in fact what i am saying now is a politically incorrect thing, cause i'm saying something bad about the society. bleah like i care.
and let me digress
we shall talk about Singlish.
many feel that Singlish should be abolished. in fact out government has emphasised the need for Singlish to be abolished.
we see the "speak good english" campaign, the "hua yu cool" campaign, but where is the speak singlish campaign.
Singlish is part of our national identity. we as Singaporeans can identify with Singlish. i mean the gahmen wants us to have this national identity which bonds us together and it's Singlish. but then they say don't speak Singlish.
i mean Singlish is a bloody language lorh! where else in the world can you see businessmen, taxi drivers, coffee shop uncles, old retired ah pehs who speak the common tongue? even in Britain lets say. we have the higher class like Blair who speaks the very the good england one. then we have the less educated speaking in a different form of england.
but in Singapore, everyone speak Singlish.
i can prove that Singlish is a language. in fact, Singlish has grammar!
like the word "meh"
can you say: "You can to go eat bar chor mee or hor fun meh?"
cannot right? wrong grammar!
but if you say: "This bar chor mee nice meh?"
that is correct grammar!
the first sentence sounds funny, while the second sounds perfectly, well, sound.
Singlish has grammar. and in order for something to be a language, it must have grammar!
there! Singlish is a language.
so don't try to take Singlish away. horh!
