I am genuinely worried.
Even freaking out a little bit.
What's that?
About what, you ask?
The state of the economy?
Increasing levels of bigotry against Muslims in particular?
Global warming?
Nope.
My command of English.
That's right.
Oh shut the fuck up.
Anyway where was I?
Oh yea. My English.
Holy shit reading Singaporean-written
articles and interacting with them on an almost daily basis
is like walking through a goddamn minefield,
that's so packed with mines,
that it's impossible NOT to get hit once in a while.
Like walking past a shooting range,
where automatic machine guns are being used.
Sure, you could wear heavy armour,
and even if you could avoid getting seriously injured,
you would not escape unscathed.
One of the worse parts about reading such articles?
Not being able to immediately pinpoint a grammatical error,
because you've encountered it one too many times,
making it seem correct.
Those sneaky sons of bitches.
I'm guessing this is how
so many Singaporeans' English is breathtakingly horrible;
they and their friends make these errors so often,
they assume nothing's wrong.
And then,
these same motherfucking dumbasses turn around,
and accuse others (i.e. non-whites without 'Western accents') of speaking bad English.
Oh yes.
So long as you're White, or speak with a 'Western accent',
such as Australian or British,
then THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL YOU COULD EVER SPEAK BAD ENGLISH.
Not according to their puny little minds,
and warped thought processes.
You could be making a shit-ton of grammatical errors
and it'd still be viewed as 'excellent' in their eyes.
Fucking morons.
But if you speak with a non-Singaporean Asian accent?
These fuckers immediately jump all over you for your 'bad English'.
Without realizing they wouldn't know what proper grammar usage was
even if it was drilled into their thick-as-granite skulls.
Yeah. Thick as granite.
Can't think of anything else right now.
Don't like it?
It's OK. I respect your opinion.
So please continue to anally fist yourself.
Anyway, I need to write more.
Read more books.
This is fucking worrisome.
Goddamn dumbass Singaporeans.
Well enough of that
