"TENJOOBERRYMUDS"...

This is a hoot .... Sad, because it is TRUE ..... But a hoot!!!!
By the time you read through this YOU WILL UNDERSTAND "TENJOOBERRYMUDS"...

In order to continue getting-by in North America (our home land), we all need to learn the NEW English language! Practice by reading the following conversation until you are able to understand the term "TENJOOBERRYMUDS".

With a little patience, you'll be able to fit right in.
Now, here goes...

The following is a telephone exchange between maybe you as a hotel guest and call room-service somewhere in the good old U S A today......

Room Service : "Morrin. Roon sirbees."

Guest : "Sorry, I thought I dialed room-service."

Room Service: " Rye. Roon sirbees...morrin! Joowish to oddor sunteen???"

Guest: "Uh..... Yes, I'd like to order bacon and eggs."

Room Service: "Ow July den?"

Guest: ".....What??"

Room Service: "Ow July den?!?.... Pryed, boyud, poochd?"

Guest: "Oh, the eggs! How do I like them? Sorry.. Scrambled, please."

Room Service: "Ow July dee baykem? Crease?"

Guest: "Crisp will be fine."

Room Service: "Hokay. An Sahn toes?"

Guest: "What?"

Room Service: "An toes. July Sahn toes?"

Guest: "I... Don't think so."

RoomService: "No? Judo wan sahn toes???"

Guest: "I feel really bad about this, but I don't know what 'judo wan sahn toes' means."

RoomService: "Toes! Toes!...Why Joo don Juan toes? Ow bow Anglish moppin we bodder?"

Guest: "Oh, English muffin!!! I've got it! You were saying 'toast'... Fine....Yes, an English muffin will be fine."

RoomService: "We bodder?"

Guest: "No, just put the bodder on the side."

RoomService: "Wad?!?"

Guest: "I mean butter... Just put the butter on the side."

RoomService: "Copy?"

Guest: "Excuse me?"

RoomService: "Copy...tea..meel?"

Guest: "Yes. Coffee, please... And that's everything."

RoomService: "One Minnie. Scramah egg, crease baykem, Anglish moppin, we bodder on sigh and copy ... Rye??"

Guest: "Whatever you say."

RoomService: "Tenjooberrymuds."

Guest: "You're welcome"

Remember I said "By the time you read through this YOU WILL UNDERSTAND 'TENJOOBERRYMUDS' ".....and you do, don't you!

The word of the day...
Omelette....normally one would associate this with eggs whipped and fried with cheese or meat stuffed inside...but this is not so...I will use it in a sentence so you get the new english drift....

"Normally I would buss yo ass fo that...but omelette dat shit slide dis time"

The new language...amazing!!

what is worse than that is trying to talk to "most" customer service places on the phone. They all have horrible Indian(from India) accents.

I especially like the Americanized pseudonyms used in many Indian call centers.

Him: "Hello sir, my name is Steve. How--"
Me: "No it isn't."

This often leads to an interesting conversation about the customer service business and the weather in Delhi or Mumbai.

Would be so refreshing if they said,

"Hello sir my name is unpronouncable to you, you'll have forgotten it in 10 seconds & you don't really give a crap what I'm called anyway, how may I help you?"

I would be happy, and tolerant of accents, if they could just skip the dog gamn call script and let me tell them what is wrong from the start and get on with my day...

We get any where from 3 to 7 of those "address-update" calls per day!

I'm going to try that!

Voice recognition customer service software.. want to speak to some one in English? mutter obscenities in your favorite language (non spanish/non english)
It gets em every time. for added fun, continue it once you get a person, if they dont speak english, neither should you, at some point you will get a supervisor that does.

In a pinch, if someone is having communications problems with someone from the south, I speak all three of the major redneck dialects..."deep south", "cajon" and "ozark"
