suddenly, i'm respectable;

Forgot to mention! I've got my old cell phone number back, so everyone who still has that number, text me! I'll add ya back. My contact list, it's empty, almost.

Edit: God, English Only pisses me off so much.

"Double standards suck ass. As Americans, we'd get so much shit if we went to another country and didn't bother like some of them do here. But vice versa? OH NO, WE HAVE TO CATER TO THEM!!!"

Jesus Christ, fuck you. Why do people say this every time the subject comes up? I can count on one hand--two fingers, in fact--the people I've met who were actually rude to me because I didn't speak their language very well while in their country.

I love that icon. I forget who made it, but I love it so much.

Uhhhh... That's completely the opposite. I wonder if this person has ever actually been to a foreign country? I mean, I'm sure it's not that way all over the world, but Japan and many European countries are usually quite cool with trying to communicate with English-speakers in English, or at least don't give them flack about it (to their faces).
