Re: Camodia monkey farm
Are those places relatively near each other? In the same region?Chad Sexington wrote: ↑Mon Dec 28, 2020 5:04 pmMonkey Hangers are not Geordies, Monkey Hangers are from Hartlepool, Geordies are from Newcastle/ Tyneside.Doc67 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 28, 2020 12:04 pmAhh, the monkey hangers!

I wouldn't adopt one though, the amount of chest beating is insane.

They are 40 km apart or some similar vast distance that renders their dialects incomprehensible to each other.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

Theres a big monkey farm on a riverbank a few ks off the highway to Siem Riep. I googled it once and found allegations that many of the monkeys were bought from people who trapped them in the wild.
Monkeys were sold to labs all over the world.

Back in the day, there was one expat who had a monkey. Monkey Jim was his name (the expat, not the monkey).

I thought he was called that because he looks like a hairy monkey? That French guy who was murdered with his kids in Kampong Speu had a monkey. I met him in Psah Chas one time and thought about petting it till it bared its teeth. Bronagh Sloane had a monkey too. She's dead too so maybe they aren't good for your health.Username Taken wrote: ↑Tue Dec 29, 2020 4:57 am Back in the day, there was one expat who had a monkey.

Nothing wrong with taking pride in your dialect, and any true Brit who cannot comprehend other British dialects has lived a sheltered life or just isn’t trying.Doc67 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 29, 2020 12:06 pmand everyone else....John Bingham wrote: ↑Tue Dec 29, 2020 12:43 am They are 40 km apart or some similar vast distance that renders their dialects incomprehensible to each other.

The funniest accent is Bristolian followed closely by Norfolk and Somerset.
The weirdest is Brummy/Black Country and angriest Scouse or Northern Irish.
Scottish can be hit and miss depending where aboots they’re from.
London/Cockney/Essex/East Kent is just out there geeza, nowatimean?
Poshest is Surrey.
Interesting accent is Geordie with Welsh coming up behind.
Coolest is Irish especially when it’s spoken by a smoking hot chick.
Home Counties (Herts, Beds, Bucks) is all a bit neutral. Not London not anything.

Re: Cambodia monkey farm?
Now there’s an idea for any budding entrepreneurs, an online service delivering monkeys to fuckers you hate. Like Interflora but with macaques instead of magnolias.John Bingham wrote: ↑Tue Dec 29, 2020 9:00 amI thought he was called that because he looks like a hairy monkey?
