I was in Malaysia once and a got chatting to a guy who didn't have the best English. He asked me for another way to say "I'm only joking" and I taught him to say "I'm only having a giraffe", which he managed in broken English ("Having a jee raff") I hope one day he says that to an Englishman and confuses him thoroughly.
What do you mean? Having a jee raff honestly sounds perfect. I'll be in Malaysia in February so I'll teach that one to some locals. Also, having a gazebo.

It's hard to put into text but the emphasis was on the ee. It was all wrong. But it made it so much better.
