An Indian, walking through a field, sees a white man using his hand as a scoop to drink water from a pond. The Indian calls out to the man, "Na ol an t-uisce, ta sïlan de chacbo." (Translation: Don't drink that water. It's full of cow poop!)
The man shouts back, "I'm English! Can't you speak English, Indian! Are you completely ignorant, you asshole?!!"
The Indian calls back in ENGLISH .... "Use both hands. You'll get more."
