some cute Konglish

A student today gave me my favorite bit of Konglish to date: "dog happy," "dog excited" and "dog hungry" - he had just learned "dog tired" and thought it could be expounded into any adjective form (and why not, I say?). I think I'm going to make it my personal mission to infect several people's slang with this one.

Another good one I ran into today: "Thank you, Mr. Weiss. Everyone please give him big hands." (How the heck is one hand, however big it is, supposed to help you clap, anyway? Ever thought about it?)

Dog funny.
Linda pointed out that it's totally fine to say "doggone happy," or excited, etc.
