The English did invent the English Language, but they cannot use it economically when communicating their intentions.
Compare these phrases that Malaysians and Britons use to say the same thing:

Malaysians: No Stock.

Britons : Hello. Did anyone page for me a few moments ago?
Malaysians: Hallo, who page?
ASKING SOMEONE TO MAKE WAY...
Britons : Excuse me, I'd like to get by. Would you please make way?
Malaysians: S-kews. (excuses)
WHEN SOMEONE OFFERS TO PAY...
Britons : Hey, put your wallet away, this drink is on me.
Malaysians: No-nid.
WHEN ASKING FOR PERMISSION...
Britons : Excuse me, but do you think it would be possible for me to enter through this door?
Malaysians: (while pointing at the door) Can or not?
WHEN ASKING TO BE EXCUSED...
Britons : If you would excuse me for amoment, I have to go to the gents/ladies. Please, carry on without me, it would only take a moment.
Malaysians: Toy lert, toy lert.
WHEN ENTERTAINING...
Britons : Please make yourself right at home.
Malaysians: Don't be shy ah.
WHEN DOUBTING SOMEONE...
Britons : I don't recall you giving me the money.
Malaysians: Where got?
WHEN DECLINING AN OFFER...
Britons : I'd prefer not to do that, if you don't mind.
Malaysians: Doe-waaaan.(don't want)
WHEN DECIDING ON A PLAN OF ACTION...
Britons : What do you propose we do now that the movie's sold out and all the restaurants are closed?
Malaysians: So how?
DISAGREEING ON A TOPIC OF DISCUSSION...
Britons : Err. Tom, I have to stop you there. I understand where you're coming from, but I really have to disagree with what that you said about...
Malaysians: You mad, ha?
WHEN ASKING SOMEONE TO LOWER THEIR VOICES...
Britons : Excuse me, but could you please lower your voice, I'm
trying to concentrate over here.
Malaysians: Shaddap lah.
WHEN ASKING SOMEONE IF HE/SHE KNOWS YOU...
Britons : Excuse me, but I noticed you starring at me for some time. Do I know you?
Malaysians: See what, see what? Ah..
WHEN ASSESSING A TIGHT SITUATION
Britons : We seem to be in a bit of a predicament at the moment.
Malaysians: Die-lah!!
WHEN FACED WITH A DISAGREEING PARTY...

This is a question that was once used in a job selection process:
You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy night. You pass by a bus stop, and you see three people waiting for the bus: An old lady who looks as if she is about to die. An old friend who once saved your life. The perfect woman (or man) of your dreams.
There can only be one passenger in your car and you don't have enough petrol to return to the bus stop once you have left it. Which one would you choose to offer a ride to?
Think before you continue reading. This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used as part of a job selection process so your future could depend on how you answer this question.
You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to die, and thus you should save her first; or you could take the old friend because he once saved your life, and this would be the perfect chance to pay him back. However, you may never be able to find your perfect dream lover again.
The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants) had no trouble coming up with his answer.
WHAT DID HE SAY? (scroll down)
He answered: "I would give the car keys to my old friend, and let him take the old lady to the hospital. I would stay behind and wait for the bus with the woman of my dreams."
The moral of the story is that we can gain more if we are able to give up our stubborn thought limitations and "Think Outside of the Box."
Nobody came up with the "Australian" correct answer which is, of course, to run over the old lady and put her out of her misery, sh** the perfect woman silly on the bonnet of the car and then drive off with your old friend to the nearest pub to get drunk

No1. RULES THAT GIRLS SHOULD KNOW.......
----------------------------------------------------------------
1. If you think you're fat, you probably are. Don't ask us. We refuse to answer.
2. Learn to work the toilet seat. If it's up, put it down.
3. Don't cut your hair. Ever. Long hair is always more attractive than short hair. One of the big reasons guys fear getting married is that married women always cut their hair, and by then you're stuck with her.
4. Birthdays, Valentines, and Anniversaries are not quests to see if we can find the perfect present yet again!
5. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, expect an answer you don't want to hear.
6. Sometimes, we're not thinking about you. Live with it.
7. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as navel lint, the shotgun formation and monster trucks.
8. Sunday = sports. It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides. Let it be!
9. Shopping is not a sport, and no, we're never going to think of it that way.
10. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine. Really!
11. You have enough clothes.
12. You have too many shoes.
13. Crying is blackmail.
14. Your ex-boyfriend is an idiot.
15. Ask for what you want. Let's be clear on this one: Subtle hints don't work. Strong hints don't work. Really obvious hints don't work. Just say it!
16. No, we don't know what day it is. We never will. Mark anniversaries on a calendar.
17. Yes, peeing standing up is more difficult. We're bound to miss sometimes.
18. Most guys own three pairs of shoes-what makes you think we'd be any good at choosing which pair, out of thirty, would look good with your dress?
19. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.
20. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.
21. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor.
22. Foreign films are best left to foreigners.
23. Check your oil.
24. Don't fake it. We'd rather be ineffective than deceived.
25. It is neither in your best interest nor ours to take the quiz together.
26. No, it doesn't matter which quiz.
27. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. All comments become null and void after 7 days.
28. If you won't dress like the Victoria's Secret girls, don't expect us to act like soap opera guys.
29. If something we said can be interpreted two ways, and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.
30. Let us ogle. We're going to look anyway; it's genetic.
31. Don't rub the lamp if you don't want the genie to come out.
32. You can either ask us to do something OR tell us how you want it done-not both.
33. Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during commercials.
34. Christopher Columbus didn't need directions, and neither do we.
35. Women wearing Wonder bras and low-cut blouses lose their right to complain about having their boobs stared at.
36. More women should wear Wonder bras and low-cut blouses. We like staring at boobs.
37. The relationship is never going to be like it was the first two months we were going out.
38. ALL men see in only 16 colours, like windows default settings. Peach is a fruit, not a colour.
39. Pumpkin is also a fruit.
40. If it itches, it will be scratched.
41. Beer is as exciting for us as handbags are for you.
42. If it's OUR house, I don't understand why MY stuff gets thrown in the closet/attic/basement.
43. We're not mind readers and we never will be. Our lack of mind-reading ability is not proof of how little we care about you.
44. If we ask what's wrong and you say "nothing," we will act like nothing's wrong. We know you're lying, but it's just not worth the hassle.
45. If we hear from an old girlfriend, we will briefly fantasize about having sex with her. But don't worry; the fantasy includes you AND her, together.

It just demonstrates how you have to know the requirements up
front.... communication is everything! Sometimes it DOES take
a Rocket Scientist! (true story).
Scientists at the Canadian Research Facility built a gun
specifically to launch dead chickens at the windshields of
Airlines and military jets, all traveling at maximum velocity.
The idea is to simulate the frequent incidents of collisions
with airborne fowl to test the strength of the windshields.
NASA engineers heard about the gun and were eager to test it on
the windshields of their new high speed trains. Arrangements
were made, and a gun was sent to the NASA engineers.
When the gun was fired, the engineers stood shocked as the
chicken hurled out of the barrel, crashed into the shatterproof
shield, smashed it to smithereens, blasted through the control
console, snapped the engineer's backrest in two and embedded
itself in the back wall of the cabin, like an arrow shot from a bow.
The horrified Americans sent the Canadian Research Facility the
disastrous results of the experiment, along with the designs of the
windshield and begged the Canadian scientists for suggestions.
The Canadian Research Facility responded with a one-line memo:
"...Defrost the chicken."
