Not by choice, and also not because any US citizens are changing languages.
The United States invariably does the right thing, after having exhausted every other alternative. -Winston Churchill America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between. -Oscar Wilde Wow, even the French showed a little more spine than that before they got their sh*t pushed in.[^] -Colin Mullikin

To be fair, I like synchronised swimming. The sight of a bunch of wet pudenda rising slowly from the depths in unison is quite exhilarating!

As Nish has said, many Indians are Muslim, but he probably also used beef dripping so he didn't miss out on offending the Hindus as well!
Pro tip - How to offend all of India (Muslims and Hindus) : serve them bacon wrapped sirloin! :rolleyes:

I remember most of the conversions, so if I wanted to I could approximate things fairly well after calculating it in my head, but as far as instincts go, the imperial system comes much more naturally to me.

Within the scale of a lab bench I can do metric at least as easily as the customary system.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius

It is really more of a creole
In my opinion, modern Indian-English is not a creole, but a cluster of dialects of English, some of which (now rarer) retain certain aspects of a 'pidgen' : a creole super-imposes an alien vocabulary, neologisms, and idioms, on a conserved native grammar: contemporary Indian-English[^], in all its fascinating varieties[^], is, grammatically, English, and it is English grammar that Indians learn.

The real sticking point I have with Canadians is the fact that they speak English, but measure distances in Kilometres, which as any fule kno, is quite unacceptable. Even our American Cousins haven't fallen so low as to use a system of measurements invented by post revolutionary unemployed hairdressers.

To be fair I admire Aussies. You have Great Whites Sharks, Box Jellyfish, Black Widows, Salt Water Crocodiles, Blue Ring Octopus, The Brown Snake, Merv Hughes, etc... The Most Dangerous thing we have in this country are Socialists and the Irish. No wonder you lot have a different attitude.

Now how the hell can you pay out on Merv when there is that complete wanker Warne that you could be paying out on.

That seems to be talking about people that are sexually abused at a young age, I'm talking about you Poms that are shovelling butloads of kids out of very young teenagers. Happens everywhere but seems to be rife in Britain, showed a couple this week, him 29, her 30, daughter 14, grand daughter new born. If the link you provided went further in depth where they weren't talking about sexual abuse, I will still point out that you are pointing out a minority that may or may not have a reason to bitch and moan and fuck up like they have. I'm talking about generic british residents, if they are in the minority then why are my airwaves infested with multiple british programs showing fuckers that won't get a job, bludge off mum and dad and then decide to have kids of their own to make a living?
