Speaking N-ese
« on: June 03, 2008, 02:55:20 PM »
Here is a decipherng program for people who don't speak N-ese. See if you can interpret the following message:

Person A - Here is a picture from when I was at graduation.

(Picture has Person A in a pretty dress that is not quite flattering)

Me - The color of that dress is very pretty. (Mention something nice, without being falsely flattering).

N- And don't you dare say she looks fat in it.

Me - I had no intention of saying that.

N  (pulls me aside) - You need to stop taking everything so personally.

N-ese translation - Person A looks fat in that dress, but I don't want to say it, so I will pretend you said it. Since you won't say it, I will embarrass you in front of everyone by saying that you are rude to me.

N - Your sister looks different with the pregnancy. Not fat, just different somehow.

N-ese translation - She looks heavier, but I don't want to say it, but I want you to know it.


N-ese means taking the oppostie of what is said and assuming it is the true sentence that was intended. It is kind of like an evil Pig Latin :)

Love you all,
Beth

N-I was hoping you two would be at church today.   Me-no we over slept(Really we just did not feel like it)  N-Well Bob and Lori never miss.  Meaning Bob and Lori are better than you and you should do what they do.  Two years later Bob is caught in a second adulterous affair and stupidly Lori still stays with the idiot.
