U.S.-U.K. "Special Relationship"

As the Fourth of July winds down and we remember the United States' Declaration of Independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain in 1776, let's take a moment to consider how British accents sound to Americans and how American accents sound to the Brits.

Is it any wonder your two nations haven't always seen eye to eye?

You can't understand what the feck you're saying to one another!

A Canadian, eh?

Foreign Swear Words

Thanks to Inexplicable DeVice (IVD), Mistress MJ now has in her possession The Little Book of Essential Foreign Swear Words which she won in IVD’s contest.

I have now mastered how to say “Die shitting” in Japanese…

Kuso shite shinezo!

“I’m having an orgasm!’ in Portugeuese…

Eu estou gozando!

And “suck my knob” in Italian…

Ciucciami il cazzo!

I’m not sure when the opportunity will come up to say “Your mother suckles pigs” in German…

Deine Mutter saugt Schweine!


But thanks to IVD, I’ll be ready for it!

What about you, bitches?

What are some of your favourite foreign swear words?

Yorkshire Speak

In an attempt to educate this ignorant Canuck, Yorkshire’s favourite poofs, Tazzy and Piggy, purchased this Yorkshire-English dictionary for me…


MJ: Let’s see if I’ve learned owt. (Let’s see if I’ve learned anything.)

Piggy: Aye, get agate. (Yes, go on then, get doing it.)

Tazzy: Best y’ do. (See that you do.)

MJ: Champion. (Excellent.)

Tazzy: By gum, we’ve supped sum stuff toneet. (Gawd, we have certainly drunk a lot tonight.) Ahm powfagged. (I’m very tired.)

Piggy: Ah-cud eet a'scabby-donkey tween tu Bre't-Vans. (I'm very hungry. I could eat a diseased donkey between two Bread Vans as a sandwich.)

MJ: Enough of this nonsense. Lesson over. Ahm still befuddled. (I’m still confused.) Boggled. (Mystified.) Flummoxed. (Bewildered.) Obviously I’ve learned nowt. (Obviously I’ve learned nothing.)

Tazzy: Flippin ‘eck, MJ! (exclamation of surprise.) You’re a barmpot. (You’re stupid.)

Piggy: Yes, MJ. You’re daft as a brush. (You’re stupid.) Yer arf baked. (You’re stupid.)

Tazzy: Yer gormless. (You're stupid.)

MJ: Gi’ over. (Stop it.) Any road (anyway) I’ll just have to make do with this handy Yorkshire Translator instead.

If anyone can assist with my Yorkshire Speak education, please submit your Yorkshire words and phrases in the comments section.

If not, then sling yer ‘ook. (If not then I suggest you go away immediately.)

Ta’ra! (Goodbye!)
