I understand your frustration.

Why the gently caress do we send foreign students to Utah of all places to learn English? Well I guess if you come to the US to study and don't speak English already you're either retarded or from some dirt country.

So that way the missionaries don't have to go to them duh.

I shall write to Utah to tell them that :

Headphones are for giving head
Jack leads lead to jacking off
'No comeback' means not jizzing on your partner's back
Analitics is the politics of anal

they need to know

How poignant and ironic that the blog was meant to address the exact issue that caused the writer to be fired.

I thought what I’d do was pretend I was one of those deaf mutes, or something...

The amount of asian students taking basic english courses throughout my years in college always surprised me. Even up to the year I graduated there were asian students in my high level major courses that could not communicate anything more than a simple idea in english.

My first experience with this was one of the first weeks of my freshman year when a group of super hot asian girls came up to me and some friends and basically were trying to make us do their english homework for them, which consisted of a one page worksheet with questions like "What is something you would bring to a dinner gathering?" with enough room for a couple sentences for each answer.

Except homophone isn't a homophone of homosexual. In Most of the US, the prefix "homo-" is pronounced differently for those words too. Homophone is pronounced ":haw:-mo" and homosexual is pronounced "Hoe-Moe."
