  <rindolf>  uwd: what's up?
  <rindolf>  BTW, how has English become the official language of
             Singapore?
  <Altreus>  Viral marketing
      <uwd>  singapore has four official languages.
      <uwd>  one national one.
      <uwd>  also, politics.
      <uwd>  also, see wikipedia.
  <Altreus>  it knows all
  <Altreus>  [citation needed]
       <ik>  rindolf: it's a byproduct of the Richard Nixon / Henry Ford's
             campaign for chief taxonomist of western Nepal
  <rindolf>  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Languages_of_Singapore
       <ik>  (a coveted position)
  <Altreus>  taxonomist!
  <rindolf>  Wikpedia has an article about everything including the
             http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitchen_sink
  <Altreus>  They are in charge of taxis!
  <Altreus>  disambiguation pages make me sad :(
       <ik>  I like the disambiguity!
  <rindolf>  ik: heh
      <uwd>  i like disambiguation pages. they say "this thing you seek...
             it is not only one thing, you see? no, no, mon ami, this
             world, she is too big to contain only one of everything, eh?"
  <Altreus>  :D you talk like dee
      <uwd>  what.
  <Altreus>  wat
  <Altreus>  That message you said in French could have been typed by dee!
  <Altreus>  except it was you.
  <Altreus>  you doubleyou dee
      <uwd>  it was in English, actually.
  <Altreus>  okay
  <Altreus>  But it had some French in it
  <Altreus>  !
       <ik>  Two words! Four, if you count "no". Twice.
  <rindolf>  Yes, it sounded French to me too.
  <Altreus>  no is not french
  <rindolf>  non is.
  <Altreus>  oui!
  <Altreus>  elle n'a pas dit non
  <rindolf>  In any case saying "She" of the world is also a Frenchism.
  <rindolf>  Je ne sais pas.
       <ik>  But it's not french
  <rindolf>  Parlez vous anglais?
      <uwd>  it is also a generic Euroism.
  <Altreus>  oui
  <Altreus>  England is Europe too :(
      <uwd>  so not that French.
 <pkrumins>  Je m'appelle Pierre
  <rindolf>  pkrumins: heh.
 <pkrumins>  Je suis 24 ans!
  <Altreus>  Gods, the number of times I got contradicted at school for
             knowing that England was in Europe
 <pkrumins>  Je h'abite Riga
      <uwd>  Altreus: dude, given that was mostly English, i don't see why
             the sadface.
  <rindolf>  Tu s'appelle Peteris
  <Altreus>  it's no wonder stupid people make me violent
 <pkrumins>  Je'abite
  <rindolf>  pkrumins: not en Riga?
 <pkrumins>  maybe
  <rindolf>  or de Riga?
  <Altreus>  uwd: hmm
  <rindolf>  J'abite, non?
  <Altreus>  I seem to sadface a lot more than is necessary due to how I'm
             never actually sad
 <pkrumins>  Oui.
  <Altreus>  rindolf: habite
 <pkrumins>  Je monger a macdo.
  <Altreus>  il y a un h
 <pkrumins>  Je travailler on ordinator
 <pkrumins>  a programmator.
 <pkrumins>  Oui.
  <Altreus>  en!
  <Altreus>  probably au tbh
  <Altreus>  but a l' because vowel
      <uwd>  l'ordinator?
  <Altreus>  And travaille is the first-person present participle
  <Altreus>  And -eur
  <Altreus>  But mostly right!
      <uwd>  why -eur?
          *  Altreus pats pkrumins on the back
  <Altreus>  ordinateur
 <pkrumins>  tehe.
 <pkrumins>  jadone chats
  <Altreus>  I wonder if a pink one is an ordinateuse
 <pkrumins>  (or was it chiens)
      <uwd>  it's so much easier to say she and mon ami and have people
             think it's french than actually speak french...
 <pkrumins>  i think chats
 <pkrumins>  j'adore chats
 <pkrumins>  jaim a perl chat
  <Shiyiya>  jain n'est pas un mot
  <Shiyiya>  *jaim
  <Altreus>  j'aime
  <Shiyiya>  aussi jadone n'est pas un mot
 <pkrumins>  hmm
 <pkrumins>  pawings
 <pkrumins>  all i can say
  <rindolf>  pkrumins: chien is a dog.
  <rindolf>  I think.
  <Shiyiya>  Ues, chien is dog
  <Shiyiya>  *Yes
  <rindolf>  chat
  <rindolf>  chatte for feminine
