LOL Cantonese is my first language, and you are right, it always sounds like people arguing. I know northern Chinese look down upon the language, but they are tolerating it for the time being as Hong Kong is economically developed.

I know deep insider the minds of unification-minded Taiwanese and mainland Chinese, we are "southern barbarians".
