Interesting Language Observation

It is good to be rational, apparently.

But to rationalize something is bad?

Is this a coincidence? Maybe it doesn't matter, but I think it says a lot.
Vroom!

It's good to be rational if there are absolutely no other usable tools in the box.
Under the same circumstances, rationalizing can be good too.
That ol' brain needs to keep busy or it'd just go mad.

Im going to hijack this thread. I write with an Indian accent. My posts are often a Bollywood productions. Oddly I am fine with this and I go with it, when I could write in other ways. That is why I sometimes butcher common order, and write as I do though maybe it doesn't show much here.

It would appear language is much influence. Sometimes I speak Mexican English and I guess it is fitting that it is this way, for Im not a native. Grammar becomes Mexican grammar, or Indian grammar, rather than English grammar.

Thats an interesting language observation. Now I dont have to make the thread myself. Hijacked!

I do much the same, although I'm always aware I'm doing it. I especially prefer this style...

That crow him like plenty time make talk with singing wire that live in wall.
Him talk many time in meeting place of great spirit.
Him talk with many spirit in meeting place many time.
That crow him more like tree pecker than bird with great beak, peck many time to wire that live in wall.
Listen plenty that crow but maybe him talk more than listen.

Nonono. That's American Indian speak, according to Hollywood. I do it often. Some people call me a racist for it.
