few of the girls at school have "invented" their own language, so they can talk bout stuff they don't want other people knowing. it involves changing letters or adding something to everyword, gets bloody annoying after awhile.

Something like pig latin? In Spanish or Portuguese speaking countries, people have the "p" language. Concists of adding letter Ps to the word and repeating the last vowel. It doesn't work with english very well.
At first, this was very annoying. Then I learnt it, without telling other people. Muahaha. All there secrets were revealed. Stupid.

French have what I think is called Verlon. That's backwards for the word that means backwards. They speak backwards. IE. c,a(meant to be a squiggly thing under C) turns into ac,.

Who could make a somthing that long, that retarded and still be sain (I mean the gu who first made it up). Was this e-mail joke from someone with an address like MentalPatient1002@selkirk.com

Note: Selkirk is the only mental assilum I know about so just so you know.

@ David T Verlon backwards is nolrev, backwards in french is a lenver (might not be spelt right(I can't write in any language)) pronounced "Ah-len-ver". If your english do it with a french accent
and you'll get it right.

No offence

Down here we're very multicutural, so people speak different languages all the time. I'll hear Chinese all the time, I don't mind that much except the Chinese have a habbit of shouting every word, I have no idea why.

It's just the same as having two mirrors facing towards eachother (like in some hair dressers, barber shops, or whatever you call them over there). It also makes high pitched UFO sounds when you put the microphone close to the speakers.

10? - contantly say the person's next to you name and when they respond deny that you ever said anything and repeat the process.

10??- as you walk past people in a bus stop or in a small room do not hesitate to fart and leave it with them.

This is my favourite:

5. If you have a glass eye, tap on it occasionally with your pen while talking to others.

But I 2 healthy eyes so I can't. But if ever I get into some kind of freak-eye-gorging accident then the thought of being able to do this will help me through the ordeal.
