English grammar

Something that Linux users lack since they all dreamt of compiling the kernel while sleeping through their English classes.

An example of poor English grammar is 1337/leet speech.

English summer

Supposed to be ironic. English summers typically consist of rain and little sunshine, until 'global warming' changed it. Tradtionally when someone describes weather as 'an English summer' they mean rain when there should be sunshine.

"Pack for an English summer!"
"Out comes the raincoat then..."

--

(when raining outside in summer months)
"Typical english summer..."

Putting English on the ball

When I went to San Francisco, I heard some guys were playing pool. They put backspin on the ball, and someone said 'Nice English'. I enquired, and found out that putting English on the ball means putting backspin on it.

"Sweet. You put so much English on that ball it went all the way back up your cue and in your mouth."

English Teacher

Every single English Teacher is a waste of space and is a waste of time apart from two. The two good English Teachers are usually female. when you meet the first English Teacher they will seem funny, polite and nice; but really they are horrible, discouraging and rude people, and don't get me started on the Head of English.

"Oh my god, the English Teachers today, just turning around on me like that jeez, I'm so fed up of them. Can't believe they would just quick me out my class and tutor like that."
"Today was horrible, I had English, and my English Teacher just made ten times worse that it already worse: first accusing me of flirting with them secondly, shouting my name out in-front of everyone in class and just being there watching over everyone and making us do even more work on boring comers."
