Heh, if it's anything like getting ranted at by a Chinese mother I've already heard it. Repeatedly. My sophomore roommate had grown up in Texas but her family was from Taiwan, so she spoke English with a Texas accent but Mandarin Chinese with her family -- which meant that I developed the habit of answering the phone with, "Pei-Ling isn't here!" because her mother couldn't tell our voices apart when we said "Hello" and that would be the only word I'd have time to get out if it was my roomie's mother on the phone.
