We are watching Snatch, with the subtitles for the benefit of the Americans.

Why do the heathen foreigners need subtitles?!

Because they don't speak English, they speak American =p

The plural of "y'all" is "all y'all".

That's pretty amazing. I may need to sit down and recover....

And are they going "heh, 'snatch'" at all?

This isn't restricted to Americans! One of my favourite word games is a competitive tile-based word-building game called 'Snatch' and apparently inviting people to play it encourages all sorts of juvenile sniggering.

*snigger* No, I don't think they get it.

*grins* I hope we get to watch Twin Town, too.

That's pretty sad. After all, the star of the film IS an American. Although I do admit subtitles for the gypsies wouldn't be a bad thing. Were those included?

The subtitled most of it, except where he goes into really, REALLY broad dialect. But I can still understand much of that.

Hee. I still love what they do with language there, though.
