Scrabble. In a foreign tongue.
Jun. 23rd, 2011 05:25 pmAny game system that allows "veep" and disallows "lurgies"? Is corrupt, by any measure. It's like everything here in the States: on the surface you seem to be talking the same language, but actually everything is very slightly wrong, and the little threads of what's alien clog all your filters (I may have shifted my metaphor here), and the culture shock is all the greater for being insidious. It may prove ultimately toxic.
Still. Maybe not. What cannot be cured, etc: I have small hope of persuading the entirety of America that they're speaking the wrong language, saying the wrong things and driving on the wrong side of the road. And I still won anyway.
