Greetings? Letsrun anthropologists,
I notice that both these taunts are translated African proverbs that can be heard at any given time in marketplaces all over the continent of Africa between dissenting parties. They're especially more cutting when uttered in African languages like Swahili, unlike the harmless ribbing they appear to be conveying in standard American Colloquial English.
I posit that the rancour and bad blood between the two protagonists runs deeper than the unread and uncultivated posters that frequent this site realise. Which is why I am proposing an in-depth investigation, for scholarly purposes, into the cause of the dispute.
Sincerely
Your friendly professor
