Shades of LISTEN TO ME FOR THE LOVE OF CHRIST!

I never thought this would happen to me, but I actually think that I have become a languageist.  Similar to a racist, but only for language barriers. Or Xenoglossophobia, fear of strange tongues.  What ever the definition, it does not change the fact that I am losing it.

I have also noticed a trend for our foreign friends that answer our technical questions on help lines about computers, services etc.  The trend is that if I just keep repeating what I said in my stupid/almost mentally challenged version of English, the person who actually speaks the language will understand me somehow.  Little do they know, the person on the other end is plotting how they could possibly move their particle through the phone lines and wrap them around their tiny throats.


Equality for all.  Love and kisses/peace.
