An old story:
An elderly lady died and went up to heaven, finding herself at the Pearly Gates talking to Saint Peter. Peter looked at her; she’d obviously had led a troubled life, but true to his calling, he asked her the same question he asked all souls.
“What you done, Old Woman, to gain admission here?”
“Oh please sir, I’ve been a loyal AOL customer for many and many a year.”
“Ah! Well, you’ve certainly had your share of Hell. Come on in, Old Woman,” said the Saint.

A pidgin, or contact language, is the name given to any language created, usually spontaneously, out of two or more languages as a means of communication between speakers of different tongues, and usually a simplified form of one of the languages. Pidgins have simplified grammars and few synonyms, serving as auxiliary contact languages. They are learned as second languages rather than natively.
