Invest in a copy of "Fraffly Well Spoken" by Afferbeck Lauder. You'll soon get the gist of the language. Then you apply those lessons downwards in the social spectrum

Looks like I buy the next round.....



Life is great for me... Most of the time... But then I meet people online... Very few are real friends... Many say they are but know nothing of what it means... Some say they are, but are so shallow...
