New Language Discovered

[UncleDonald]

Uncle Donald has noted the emergence of an entirely new linguistic development here in Thailand. The language is used by and aimed at Thai people who may not understand english but is written using english words.

Example used in promoting an internet service:

It's your life. Connect it.

Is this a deep philosophical statement, perhaps reflective of some primal Asian thinking innaccessible to Westerners? Or is it just nonsense? Or has Uncle Donald been here too long?

Other candidate phrases would be of interest.

[astral]

You have been here too long, or had one too many?

Time for a break.
