then i realised that i hate cantonese people cos my mother speaks cantonese and she talks like an idiot
lots of rote learned words and tonesOriginally posted by ORIGAMIST:Sorry, but how does an idiot sound ?
Pardon me, if you can't remember the thingy and only know it is orange in color, do you expect her to remember for you .. I mean there are so many things in orange .. .. if you remember, a gentle reminder may help instead of prompting ... I am not saying you don't know how to prompt, but there are people who really don't know how to prompt and often prompt the wrong thing .. back to the idiot thingy, how does that qualify your mother as idiot ?Originally posted by Omniknight:lots of rote learned words
things say before will forget (therefore i like forums so u can dig out things said before)
obvious things also dunno (the other day i asked for the orange coloured thing to tie up my xiaobai when i bring her go gaigai, then my mother say "what orange thing?" like DUH WHAT OTHER ORANGE THING CAN THERE BE that is related to my dog. then i gave her a few more chances by prompting her more and waiting a few more seconds and she still couldnt think of it. now i cant be faulted for treating her like an idiot)

I thought this is quite normal... somehow you don't sound normal ... ok .. seriously, I think you are bias against your mother or you could have hated her for some other thing.. therefore anything she do now is irritating or like you put it, sound idiotic .. you have to dig into your memory bank to search for your answer .. I agree with dumbdumb. .. cantonese sound much better than all other dialects .. I like to listen to cantonese song ... but I hate it when they start cursing ... I think they can be very vicious ..Originally posted by Omniknight:I CAN REMEMBER
i was asking her where she put the thing and she doesnt know what i was talking about and gave the stupid sounding "har?" with an exaggerated confused face like always
YEAH lets see if you can stay unbiased if you had to face her for 20 yearsOriginally posted by ORIGAMIST:I thought this is quite normal... someone you don't sound normal ... ok .. seriously, I think you are bias against your mother or you could have hated her for some other thing.. therefore anything she do now is irritating or like you put it, sound idiotic .. you have to dig into your memory bank to search for your answer ..

my mother contradicts herself ALL the time, but i dun call her idiot lehOriginally posted by Omniknight:YEAH lets see if you can stay unbiased if you had to face her for 20 years
she can contradict herself and still think she is right (she can say something completely opposite from last time)
some more she was raised by a woman who was so boring that her husband became depressed and needed to take medicine for it

I live with my mother for the past 48 years ... there are many things I don't about my mum doing, like lying to me about my children etc .. I hated it when people lied to me .. but I don't call her idiot... I still hold her although nowsaday I seldom talk to her .. but I still promised myself to change and try to talk to her again as before .. I want to do it before she leaves us... she is 80 years old now ... or else I will regret for the rest of my lifeOriginally posted by Omniknight:YEAH lets see if you can stay unbiased if you had to face her for 20 years

In your life time, you have only one mother .. I used to be my mother's pet until alot of other thing happened.. I had think hard and I cannot blame my mother entirely.. I may be wrong too .. and I am definately wrong in not talking to my mum .. so I will try to change my attitude towards her .. there is no right or wrong but there is something we must do before it is too late .. regreting is not the way out ... why wait for regret to fall in and not correct it so that there is no regret in life .. if you know what I mean ...Originally posted by Omniknight:idiot is just a name
and wtf do u want to change in yourself
and what about ur children
i treat her very well now maOriginally posted by ORIGAMIST:In your life time, you have only one mother .. I used to be my mother's pet until alot of other thing happened..
