B3ta collaborated with a mobile phone to almost end my life
Having been rattling round on here in various guises for all of 6 years now, I have picked up a lot of lingo on here.

I was in the John Hancock Mall in Chicago last Christmas, doing a round of shopping for the folks back home, and whilst in the lift my phone rings. It's my mate calling me, worried because she'd heard about the giant blizzards which had hit the city the night before.

Completely oblivious to my surroundings I loudly state "the snow isn't too bad but it got down to -25 this morning. This weather is really starting to cunt me in the fuck!"

This isn't the best thing to say in a lift that, I later found out, was filled with a deeply religious Texan family.

I doubt they were able to understand you
Texans... you need to speak very LOUD and SLOW for Texans. They're not the best at understanding 'foreigners'. As a Chicagoan, I am appalled that we even let Texans in past the city limits... sorry about that!
