Paris or Berlin...

I've been studying a little French, and some German- that along with a host of other things have been taking up all of my time.
Granted,
I think all languages have complications, and while I know that English is supposed to be the worst of them- I'm glad I'm English speaking. Mostly because if I had to learn it at this point I'd shoot myself.
But I'm also glad that a trash bag is neither male, nor female, and that it hasn't been neutered.
It's just a trash bag.
It's probably a lesbian,
but we (the English speaking), won't concern ourselves with that.

Our Changing Lauguage

For more than a half century there was a hotdog stand outside the baseball stadium in Indianapolis called "Gay Dans".  They changed the name to "Mr. Dans" because the word "Gay" had been usurped.  I thought that queer until I found that word had also changed meaning.  When I was younger, if it was said you were Green it meant you were new at the job, or ignorant.  It didn't have anything to do with the environment.  And "Animal Lovers" fell under the heading of "beastiality", and was found in jokes about the farmer and his sheep, etc.  I guess I'll never get done learning English, American version.
