Lately I've taken to swearing at other drivers on the road in Pig Latin. I find that it helps relax me by turning my frustration with other drivers into a sort of game. Hopefully this makes me a safer driver.

Cursing in Pig Latin sounds fun.

Sadly, I now no longer remember any of it.

Doesn't sound so bad in English, but within the cultural context of South Africa, it'll likely get you punched in the face (it means you are implying that a person is an uneducated country rube who doesn't even have indoor plumbing.)
I think it would work better with van dwellers (like myself) to just say it in plain English. "Why don't you just go s!!t in your bucket". Puts the entire lifestyle into perspective, LOL.RowanFae said:Which would really suck for van dwellers
