Periodically I wander into Jewish discussion groups for the sheer pleasure of reading something like this

But someone who holds sheitlach are mutar can be machmir like those who prohibit by wearing a tichel etc.

the point is, if sheitels are assur, then it's not a chumra to wear a tichul

Do I ever hear anyone saying There's a perfectly good English word for all this so why are you using the Hebrew? No, not once.

I think the Japanese users around here could learn something from this.

Heh, so you do have the same kind of problem. =) In Russia it has become something that the elder generation hates the younger one for - the usage of foreign words instead of native ones which are shorter and easier to comprehend. The worst part is the way people transliterate English words into Cyrillics... -_-

Oh nononono....

Don't even get me started on the 'blend' of Singlish that is generally spoken hereabouts on the LRD.

Just yes *nods wholeheartedly in agreement*
