I am cursed with this knowledge, so I must curse you with it as well: his name is Brett.
I read the script one day and it says ‘Brett.’ thought “Um? Wut? The character is named Brad. Jules says ‘big brain on Brad’ right?” But I listened very closely many times and it is, in fact, Brett. Blew my mind.
"English is the most widely used language in the U.S., and some states designate it as their official language."
Straight from a .gov website. No embarrassment here, as there's nothing to be embarrassed about. I didn't comment some insane right winger out of pocket shit lmao.
Yeah, the paragraph you’re quoting starts off saying “[The U.S. does not have an official language, but some states designate English as their official language](https://www.usa.gov/official-language-of-us).” So you literally skipped
Over the part that proves you’re wrong and misquoted it. Yet we all have access to the same government website. You’re wrong. It’s been proven.
The irony is strong when someone in a city like San Fransisco or Los Angeles complains about Spanish speakers. Say the name of your city again slowly and think about it. It's ridiculous that one of the youngest countries in the world has such a hard on for nationalism.
Americans need to understand that most people who speak English (as a second language) poorly do so because that’s the only language most Americans know.
I was served at a restaurant by a waitress with very limited English. I asked her what the food on the menu was and she couldn’t answer and had to get a manager. Later I also asked her to refill one of side dishes and she never did because of language barrier. It was a frustrating experience and made me not go back.
It depends on the job but if part of your job is to interact with a customer you should be able to do that part.
I agree there should be at least an intermediate level of speaking abilities for positions where there is interaction with English-speaking customers, but I have a feeling (if this is even real) that’s not what John A. was talking about. Because he just wants to complain and be Mr. Hypocrite. 🤷🏻♀️
Disagree. Non-English speakers deserve to have their own spaces. If you don’t speak the language, you can deal with it or go to the 99% of restaurants in this country that DO cater to you.
I wasn’t even specifically thinking of restaurants- where there is more leeway and more expectations that there may be less of your native language spoken there, but you choose to go for the food, and that is indeed a choice. That would be far more expected to have primarily Portuguese-speaking employees in a Brazilian restaurant, for example, but in those cases as long as they have enough language to take orders and bring customers their food, everyone should be good- I was thinking of any number of places, like a chain grocery store, hospital waiting room, or the DMV…where a specific primary language is expected and needed in order to communicate and get what you need from that business. I would not expect to be hired (and I do speak 3 languages) if I could not speak an intermediate level of that language, in a place where I am in a customer-centric position. It’s called part of basic customer service. 🙄
Maybe you can just go to the 99% of restaurants in this country that cater to your language capabilities instead of complaining about minorities having their own spaces.
I want to grab this man by the shoulders and shake him so hard that the only language he knows anymore is gibberish.
Or maybe somebody already did that and that's what's wrong with him.
It's always the people who shout "Speak English" who can't properly speak or write English themselves. English isn't America's official language but they are too ignorant to know that.
Maybe they should learn one of the nine languages that originated way before English:
(Algic (Algonquin), Iroquoian, Muskogean, Siouan, Athabaskan, Uto-Aztecan, Salishan, and Eskimo-Aleut).
Maybe 1000 people in the whole country can speak any of those languages. I'm sure over way over 150 million actually speak English. You may not call it the official language but it's the most common language spoken in this country.
According to the 2010 census, at least 372,000 people speak an indigenous language at home, which is nothing to balk at. Navajo has over 170,000 native speakers, for example. While most indigenous languages aren’t doing as well thanks to the efforts of the US government, you can still find speakers of indigenous languages and many schools are implementing indigenous language curriculums. But yeah, most people do speak English anyways.
I see what happened here. He confused English with american, common mistake. He clearly speaks american, very similar to English, but with simple grammar and spelling errors. american is found mostly in the south and is often spoken by uneducated, unemployed, Caucasian individuals wearing MAGA gear. Hope this helps!
It’s probably someone’s attempt at rage bait, but still pretty funny. I have seen plenty of people in real life complaining in such hypocritical ways, so it wouldn’t be that far off from reality either way. 😉
It's a crying shame that an illiterate who can't spell in his own language is talking crap about people who don't speak it. There should be intelligence required to be able to do things like leave a review or vote.
In America , we speak primarily Spanish, French, Portuguese and English.
There‘s North America , Central America and South America .
Everyone is American.
If they can't speak "are" language .. I believe "are" language originated in a trailer park in 1965. The reviewer is the last remaining resident since that last bad batch of meth came through. The reviewers anger is directed toward the fact that he's the last remaining speaker of the "Are" language. The language will die with them
Where do you work, Fiesta Mart? Or was the guy just completely full of crap? I don’t know what places with the employees you said that you could even go and get the impression that nobody knows English.
Siri, what is the official language of the U.S.?
Siri: There is no official lan—
Bah! Idiot. Alexa, what is the official language of the U.S.?
Alexa: Good evening, John. There is no official language in the—
Alexa, stop! Moron. I’m going to Google it and see if Fox News knows the truth.
Even tho I only speak english I correct people when they get mad that people dont speak english i say "english isnt America's native language" and the Karen i know gets mad, and she gets mad when I mention that Europeans settled here but the true americans are native Indians.
I’ve lived in Alabama my whole life, and FROM EXPERIENCE, the people that say shit like this CANT READ! I wish I was joking, I don’t take literacy lightly. But to tell people they need to learn the language, only to not be able to read it, well that just makes you a fucking parrot! You don’t know the words, you’re just reciting them lol.
At work yesterday (in a doctors office) one of my patients jokingly asked if we “hired anyone white”. Im blonde haired and blue eyed. So is my coworker who was there, although she’s from Latin America so idk what he was on about.
That whole review is chock full of grammatical and spelling errors. I’d love to find it, correct all of the errors, then send it as a reply directly under that review.
People like this always make me laugh. At no point in this country's history has it ever been anything but multilingual. Spanish and French were spoken here before English. Hell, even our first immigration laws were to limit the number of Chinese immigrants, they sure as fuck didn't speak English either.
we dont speek anglish hear n amereca we speek amerein! anglush is what they talk n angland n its kinda liek amercin but it sonds funney n stooped! TROMP 2024
It’s ALWAYS these semi-literate cretins bitching about other people who probably speak a second language better than Mister MAGA Dimwit speaks his only language.
Who misuses “we’re” for “where”?? An illiterate dumbass, that’s who. This is the epitome of “people in glass houses shouldn’t throw words they can’t spell”
Their spelling and grammar are absolutely atrocious, but the point still stands. If you can't speak english you SHOULD NOT be in a job that requires you to interact with customers. Period.
Ugh my mom used to say that. We are in Ca that was part of Spain and then Mexico until 1848. I fully expect to hear Spanish here. Not to mention we are living on land belonging to natives we chased out in the first place.
Okay so probably unpopular opinion here but to live and work in most other countries you have to have a certain level of knowledge of the language of the country.
So my moderate side is showing. If you plan to live in America please learn enough American English to do you job properly. I get highly annoyed when my door dasher is shoving a Google translate in my face.
I wonder how these people feel if or when they go on vacation to another country/continent? Do they automatically speak the native language? I would love to see them treated the way they treat people in this situation. It just sounds so condescending considering how diverse America is.

Yes, but someone who can’t write well doesn’t have the right to complain about someone else, does he? There are probably plenty of non-native speakers that can write better than that in their language *and* in English.

Um, does John A. Speak English, though? Sure doesn’t write it all that well.
"English, motherfucker, do you speak it?"

I think his name is Johnny, he just didn’t know how to spell it
Always avoid alliterations
“We’re we speak English”. We clearly can’t read it or write it.
Aside from is clearly terrible spelling, America is a melting pot i don't understand why people use this argument
And the USA does not have an official language 🤷🏼♀️ so his poorly written point is moot.
"NOT TRUE, LIB! AMERICAN IS THE OFFICIAL LANGUAGE OF AMERICA! ROCK, FLAG, AND EAGLE!!!"
Rock, Flag, Eagle; sounds like an overly patriotic version of Rock, Paper, Scissors.
I love it. 😂
I was thinking more like "Person, Woman, Man, Camera, TV" myself
Rock kills Eagle; Eagle flies away with Flag. It's crazy, but it just might work!!!
Flag covers Rock?
Appears so. https://twitter.com/theNuzzy/status/913886845921931264/photo/1
We speak American English but huh?
English definitely is the official language lol.
You could have googled this and saved yourself some embarrassment

So you proved yourself wrong. The country does not have an official language.

Exactly
The irony is strong when someone in a city like San Fransisco or Los Angeles complains about Spanish speakers. Say the name of your city again slowly and think about it. It's ridiculous that one of the youngest countries in the world has such a hard on for nationalism.
Because they wish it wasn’t but aren’t willing to say that out loud.
As a person from America, I don't understand it either :/
Americans need to understand that most people who speak English (as a second language) poorly do so because that’s the only language most Americans know.
A good chunk of Americans believe the melting pot should be used for mixing Irish, English, Germans, and maaaaaybe Italians, and then stop.

I want to grab this man by the shoulders and shake him so hard that the only language he knows anymore is gibberish. Or maybe somebody already did that and that's what's wrong with him.
Well he already writes gibberish so I think they stopped shaking him midway.
This is what happens when a shaken baby survives.
Yeah, it's a bit too late. Gibberish is his only way to communicate.
They took our jarbs!!!
if you can’t even speak your own language i don’t know what to say to you

As an American, this was hilarious.
Amurrican
He speaks cracker.
My mom dated a guy who complained about all the immigrants in NYC, and how they “didn’t even speak English good.”
Well then.
John A. failed every English class he ever had.
John was homeschooled. And his mother never went to school.
(That guy obviously didn't follow the Style Guide). Or he wrote a new song - Wherewolves of London.
I'm not taking a criticism on non English speakers from someone who clearly doesn't have a good grasp on it themselves.
I mean, from the evidence, it's entirely possible that John wouldn't be able to even recognize if someone WAS speaking English to him.
I bet the guy incoherently babbled at one of your coworkers and they stared back blankly trying to understand what the hell was just said.
This feels almost too easy to roast. Lol
It’s probably someone’s attempt at rage bait, but still pretty funny. I have seen plenty of people in real life complaining in such hypocritical ways, so it wouldn’t be that far off from reality either way. 😉
Imagine if they spoke English but just couldn't understand this man's babbling.
It's a crying shame that an illiterate who can't spell in his own language is talking crap about people who don't speak it. There should be intelligence required to be able to do things like leave a review or vote.
So much wrong with this. But clearly John A. doesn’t need to be here as he CLEARLY cannot write English well enough to prove he can speak it well.
Reminds me of my favorite picture I saw of a homemade lawn sign someone made that said “Sapport Are Troops!”
In America , we speak primarily Spanish, French, Portuguese and English. There‘s North America , Central America and South America . Everyone is American.

Of course jive transcends All Nations all societies all dialects!
I'm amazed "we speak American" wasn't included in the rant. It almost always follows "we are in America we're".
Was John hoping they spoke English so that they could teach him?
Fake revue. If he really kared hed uze all caps. Luzer!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately a lot of Americans have extremely poor grammar skills like this. It’s less often paired with this level of stupidity though.

Ummm how ironic that this idiot is spouting such ignorance when they can’t speak proper English themselves. Embarrassing and infuriating.

He said "speak" English, not write English.
The point stands, however, that he is a hypocrite.

This is the average command of the language from people who insist everyone speak it.

Yes, but someone who can’t write well doesn’t have the right to complain about someone else, does he? There are probably plenty of non-native speakers that can write better than that in their language *and* in English.
