OFTENTIMES, WHEN OTHERS TRY cumbrously to converse English, they overlook the mirror. Why? Well, because their language doesn’t just jibe with their skin-color….
Mariah Carey once quoted that Regine Velasquez is a “monkey”. Regine is a Filipino, we all know that. Analogously speaking, Mariah juxtaposed a Filipino with a monkey.
Well, I suppose there’s no indecency with being a Filipino. There’s nothing delinquent with being brown too. It’s just that it’s odd when you speak English during colloquial conversations even if your skin is DARK BROWN, which looks like burnt.
(Take note: Dark brown, not just brown.) Well, I suppose there are multitudinous variations of brown skin. We have the light brown, medium brown, dark brown, and reddish brown. (On my part, I belong to the light brown.) As well, I want to include the “burnt brown” – this is the dark brown type of skin, which has been darkened by sun rays, thus it looks utterly damaged! Clear enough?
So when people try to converse in English even if they look burnt brown… that is simply annoying! (Don’t ask why, just believe it!)
As if I can see a despicable monkey vocalizing the dollar language....
