Divided by a common language
Despite my best attempts to become disgustingly multilingual, living and working in a globalized 24/7 interwebbed world means I still end up having to interact with people in places I've never heard of who would no doubt be more at home communicating in languages I've also never heard of, but restrictions on my cranial capacity mean we end up by default settling on the lowest common denominator, the language of Shakespeare and its bastard offspring.
I would thus like to take the opportunity to present to you, my faithful readers, an extract from an online "chat" I had the inestimable pleasure of participating in earlier today during the course of execution of my duties towards the furtherment of global capitalism, and inviting you to revel in the glory of the language which has clawed its way up from a minor northern European dialect of Old German to become the de facto inofficial lingua franca of this planet.
