At my university, there is a program that assists foreign students in learning and speaking English. This program is always looking for volunteers, so I decided to join and help out. Besides, I've always enjoyed meeting new people from far off lands, sharing stories about the differences of our cultures.
Anyway, I was paired up with a young, Chinese woman who needed to work on her conversational English. I taught her a couple of useful phrases, like: "Sucky, sucky. Five Dollar" and "Me so horny, me love you long time". She's a quick learner and got the phrases down pat pretty quick.
Yet, when the program director found out about this, she was livid. She threatened to have me expelled and I was immediately removed from this English-speaking program. Interesting thing is that when the Chinese girl found out what the phrases meant, she thought they were funny. Why is everyone else so up tight?
