If Looks Could Kill...
Remember that viral video of the contestant (Emarati??) on the Arabic version of "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" on MBC, the one who lags when asked a question worth 2000 SR I believe, and the question was "how many World Wars were there to date?"? Remember how hard we cracked up, how unbelievable it was that someone didn't know the answer to such a pathetic question, and how we watched on, bewildered that he actually chose the answer "3"?! 3 World Wars!!
Anyway, I had a personal, first hand experience with a bimbo of the same calibre as the aforementioned contestant this week in school.
"Seminar in Linguistics" is a class where we explore the development of written language, from logograms and pictograms ("picture" writing) to what written language looks like today. Anyways, so the professor was explaining how Greek and Arabic are closely related, and have ultimately stemmed from the same mother language. The best examples were as follows:
Alpha= ox= "alif"
Beta= house= "bait"
and many more that I can't remember right now (my notebook's prolly in the trunk of my car, if not stuck under the passenger seat).
Of course, we have all come across the Greek alphabet in some form or other, at least in physics during grade school. Come on now people, who hasn't come across these symbols!! Alpha α, beta β, gamma δ, delta δ, epsilon ε, etc. If you haven't, you shouldn't be reading this blog, coz you're an imbecile and I don't tolerate imbeciles.
So the retarded bitch sitting next to me in class, in her layers and layers of chiffon and silk and multicolor clown makeup, has the audacity to ask me "Dodo, are those symbols Japanese?" JAPANESE?!?
I wouldn't have been pissed, had this question come from a freshman, or the average person who doesn't know much about linguistics. But to hear it coming from a Linguistics major senior, in her last semester, was just plain criminal!! It's like someone asking you whether chocolate is yummy or not, and whether you came from your moms belly or a donkeys ass!!
I couldn't help but glare at her for a moment, before the words "intay 7mara?!!?" slipped out of my mouth, then turning around and pretending that she didn't even exist.
I can't believe that there are people who are this stupid out there in the world.
