I believe I've posted this once before... but for those who didn't see it, it's relevant to your post, Pedro

How America screwed up the English language:

Villucci, they're brilliant!
I'm stealing "nutty-gum and fruit spleggings".

And on the subject of faux-Chinese, I was most disappointed when I returned to Amsterdam on business a few years ago to find that the Chinese restaurant that was there when we went on a Sixth-Form trip (rather close to the red light district, actually - I think Mr Hudson & Mr Davies must have got lost...) had gone. It was called "Foo King".

I recall a school exchage trip to Germany which involved a coach tour of (I think) Hamburg. There was one particular part of the tour (one shop-lined, presumably unavoidable, street in particular) that was done at quite high speed. People on that street were probably used to seeing coaches full of school kids (with their open-mouthed faces pressed to the glass) careering along with a teacher or two standing at the front trying to distract them with an intersting historical fact.

You know the Chinese restaurants are becoming more racist when they all just sound like you've thrown a kitchen drawer down a flight of stairs.... (Ching, Ting, Tong... etc)
