Ass actually also means donkey so I don’t really see why this is so funny. If you don’t believe me read the bible, ass is one if the words!

Is your government running deep into insolvency? That seems to be the latest requirement for states in the US.

Okay anyone with the argument consisting of “everyone here is so dumb because we’re on the internet, ass means donkey, blah blah blah” SHUT up. This IS Engrish no matter what because the phrases “With DONKEY I will go out on a fine day. It may be generated that something is good.” do not make sense in proper English when translated as such. Therefore, Engrish. Get the sticks out of your ASSES/DONKEYS. End.

Sorry, Marv i have to do this

New York (pronounced /nuː ˈjɔrk/ (Speaker Icon.svg listen)) is a state in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern regions of the United States and is the nation’s third most populous. The state is bordered by New Jersey and Pennsylvania to the south, and Connecticut, Massachusetts and Vermont to the east. The state has a maritime border with Rhode Island east of Long Island, as well as an international border with the Canadian provinces of Ontario to the west, and Quebec to the north. New York is often referred to as New York State to distinguish it from New York City.

Restating your point in different words impllies you think the reader did not understand your meaning the first time. So you may have agreed, but you didn’t sound like you agreed.

The dreadful thing is that we have so much Merkin content on the teev that the younger generations understand Merkin English as well as their native dialect. Some of them even speak it frighteningly fluently. Cultural imperialism on the move; why you don’t just invade us and turn us into your 51st state and get it over with, I don’t know…

Could be an overdose on that new stuff, the stuff that was called “iSnack 2.0″ for about three days before apparently 97% of the Australian population emailed them saying “That is such a crappy name”, because it’s TOXIC WASTE.

By: dr handle

dr handle — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 05:27:43 +0000

And of course, if this person was truly getting on his/her high horse (high ass?) about dialect, s/he would’ve used “bum” rather than “butt” because, ZOMG, “butt” is a Merkin dialect word!

Actually, I suspect that anywhere in the world, a human had better not get into a kicking contest with an ass.

By: dr handle

For generating fine asses, apparently. In the old days, you needed a jack-ass and a jill-ass and a gestation of about 11 months – it’s amazing what technology can do these days.

And, once again, I was AGREEING with you. I know the British have this quaint notion that because the language was invented there, they ought to know what is correct, but I think their brains are addled from too much kidney pie. But in this case the complainant was Australian, and therefore has no more claim to be the inventor of English than do we Yanks, so I suspect an overdose of Vegemite.

I was stating in my first comment that it could be said different ways, and that calling people stupid just because of their dialect isn’t right.

By: JohnB

JohnB — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 04:32:53 +0000

Eh, sorry to interrupt whatever train of thought you have going on there, as unique as it may be, but I was agreeing with you. “Arse” is no more correct than “ass,” than “behaviour” is more correct than “behavior.”

By: JohnB

JohnB — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 04:28:37 +0000

And even an idiot knows that the majority of English speakers use this word primarily to refer to something OTHER than a donkey. That is precisely what makes this Engrish, because it was obviously written by a person who did not know English idioms well. And I doubt that there are many English speakers who are not aware that the word CAN mean donkey. It just happens that most people speaking English in 2009 rarely encounter donkeys, but often encounter asses. So before you go calling people who are having fun with the post here “idiots,” be careful that you are not living in a glass house as you throw your stones.

By: Someone

Someone — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 03:51:14 +0000

No, because if he IS a genius he will know which one of the “asses” he is talking about.

By: ShadowSplicer

ShadowSplicer — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 02:58:06 +0000

Yes, but in this instance he/she is calling us stupid for OUR dialect. So I think that he/she deserves a retort.

So, if an intelligent person is told by someone, “I’m going to kick your ass,” the genius then goes to protect his donkey.
