I forgot all about this till just now.

New neighbors were moving in the other day, I had my window partially open and could tell they weren't speaking English but couldn't tell what language.

Then I heard two bros coming home, as they were loudly talking. The Man Of The House of the new neighbor said hello as they pased.

Bro1: Hey there, just moving in? Where are you guys from?
Man: Yes, we are. We're from Bosnia.
Bro1: I'm sorry
Bro2: Ohshi...
Man: Excuse me?
Bro2: (let it go man, let's go)
Bro1: Nothin.

And the bros continue to their house while the new neighbours have some a somewhat annoyed sounding discussion in their own language.

Huh, I thought anti-Bosnian sentiment was mostly a St Louis thing.

But: Ohshi? Oh, wait, at first I thought it was something in Japanese, but I think I get it no.

"oh shit" as said in the current young folk's vernacular.
