teochew neos,Originally posted by elindra:There are different kind of teochews you know
The teochews and the teochew neo ... the neos are the really nasty and ti ki (metal teeth) ones.
I didn't know this till my boss gave me a lecture on the differences within the same dialect group itself
interesting
first time i heard of this.
anyway, a big thank you to all who replied to my thread.
all the feedback and encouragement and correction to my previously negative
opinions of my dialect group. -
vulgar language in AA is not needed.Originally posted by missqi:nah. didnt attack character. just some vulgar language.
Use it in your own life, keep it out of others.
You surely don't get it -
teochew power!! mwahhahahaha.....
i think its the size of the family rather than the dialect group.... money also plays an important role...
sigh, blood is supposed to be thicker than water, but people choose to trust in money.... -
you are not alone....
i think every family has their very own story.
im a teochew too and sad to say, my story somehow similar with urs.
just make sure u dun behave like them can liao lor.
i oso wad..i make sure i dun mirror myself like them.
see, wad a nice teochew lady i am..
heehee
God bless la..
cheers!!! -
she's attacking the post and the remarks, not the character.Originally posted by mistyblue:You got personal and you always get personal with character attacking remarks.
If you do not udnerstand, at least post less.
as for the vulguarities, thats her short coming, which she admits to, so whats the fuss? -
why cant vulgar language be in AA?Originally posted by mistyblue:vulgar language in AA is not needed.

its not like i cursed threadstarter's entire family or whatever.
and you cannot dictate what i say.. -
as a pure teochew and coming from a big extended teochew family, i have to disagree with the threadstarter.
as far as i can see, my entire extended family is very nice n easy going, if a bit conservative. But certainly nowhere to the extent of the threadstarter's family.
It IS very offensive that threadstarter attributes it to being teochew. I hate to admit it, but I feel like using some vulguarities myself with regards to how some people paint their family shortcomings to being any dialect group. -
Then don't get worked up when some one hit back at you. You should not feel unhappy cause someone point it out to you when you dish it out to others.Originally posted by missqi:why cant vulgar language be in AA?

hello, relax la..
i dun think the threadstarter meant it..
maybe he quote wrongly.. wrong agenda... -
i was already worked up long before anyone hit back at me dude.Originally posted by mistyblue:Then don't get worked up when some one hit back at you. You should not feel unhappy cause someone point it out to you when you dish it out to others.
You still don't get it.
which part of this do you not understand? -
you were worked up over nothing.Originally posted by missqi:i was already worked up long before anyone hit back at me dude.

The guy was just ranting. And you still didn't get it.
Basically you are still not getting it.
Anyways, I don't want to waste anymore of my time.
If you must, ok, you win, feel free to post whatever you want. -
he was ranting, yes. but i was merely trying to point out that he was overlooking something. i admit the heatedness. and yeah, whatever. u win ok.Originally posted by mistyblue:you were worked up over nothing.

have fun. -
dialect group huh.. dying out. my mom used to say dat about teochew too. and hakka for something else.. noisy is it? she complains about everything. o well, im juz happy my parents are still around.
i can't even remember how its called.. hokkchia or something. im not closed to my relatives on mother's side, used to be when i was very young but not any more. unlike you, i have no idea how this "extended" family works or feels like. when parents dead, im on my own.
my father's side is a big blank null. he is canto, but no relatives, all dead or something. i can't speak either languages now. wld u like that? -
change ur attitude dam itOriginally posted by missqi:OI!
FCUK OFF AND DIE!
I'M TEOCHEW TOO!
MY FAMILY IS THE NICEST PEOPLE I HAVE EVER KNOWN IN MY ENTIRE LIFE.
MY DAD DONATES LOADS OF CASH TO CHARITY, DOESN'T SHOW OFF, IS DAMN HUMBLE, AND SO ARE MY OTHER RELATIVES.
I do agree with the hot-tempered part, though.
I know of alot of other teochew families too.
They are very nice.
Please DO NOT attribute your family's shortcomings because of dialect group.
m|m
makes me sick when i read ur post abt u screaming and showing whos boss -
admiting and changing is a diferent thingOriginally posted by HENG@:she's attacking the post and the remarks, not the character.
as for the vulguarities, thats her short coming, which she admits to, so whats the fuss?
ppl who keep saying they're like that and thats them are those who can never improve their charecter
that is...if they continue having this mentality -

gald to know that your entended family is very nice and easy going.
that will help to correct the wrong opions i have of teochews.
sincerely, very sorry to cause any unhappiness in you.
i really have no intention to be offensive in my post.
perhaps we have different ways of interpreting what i have written.
maybe i didn't consider interpreting my topic from you point of view.
forgive me, now that i know i am wrong to paint my family shortcomings to my dialect group.
you came from a teochew family with truly nice people so that proves me wrong regarding the wrong impression i have of teochews.
i truly have no intention of attacking any dialect group or race or whatsoever.
really very sorry -
wow i pity u man.
just when i thought my relatives r bad already.
but anyway, if u're in your house (visiting or anything), u can show more power. since after all it's your house, it's ur dad's house.
if you're visiting, you always choose not to visit. (if your dad forces you, you can explain to him nicely)...
whenever my relatives visit, i will find some excuse to go out. lock my room and put password on my com (so that no one uses it without permission..). if im at home, the most i do is to call everyone one round..and then just stay in the room and take the food into my room to eat also.
if im visiting, i dun visit at all. during CNY, the most i do is to visit my grandparents. -

Ok! In the end everybody's a winner and it's really a 'win-win' situation!Originally posted by missqi:he was ranting, yes. but i was merely trying to point out that he was overlooking something. i admit the heatedness. and yeah, whatever. u win ok.
have fun. -
Yeah. Then you probably won't even be around today....?Originally posted by verydisappointed:how i wish my grandfather joined forces136 during WW2 and perish during the fight against the japanese instead of creating a bunch of junks that created so much problems. -
And pls... People... If I have to add...? Please watch your 'languages'....
-
yah, that was what i meant.Originally posted by Devil1976:Yeah. Then you probably won't even be around today....?
how i wish i never even exist -
Well, since you're actually AROUND... Might as well make the best out of it?Originally posted by verydisappointed:yah, that was what i meant.

she reminds me of u actually. U scream like that too. Or should i show u that thread?Originally posted by olala:change ur attitude dam it
makes me sick when i read ur post abt u screaming and showing whos boss -
hmm... so have u improved yr character? i must point out in other threads u've often insist that people who are pointing out the obvious to u, are just, "being jealous of someone younger with knowledge" or to that effect.Originally posted by olala:admiting and changing is a diferent thing

its rather ironic that u will talk about being able to change.
