oi, f-list. I want to know how many of you would get annoyed if someone spoke to you constantly in a different language.
So this one guy I know (I've always been on rocky terms with him. Mostly because he's one of those guys that never thinks he's wrong "FEAR ME AND MY SMART PEEN" kind of attitude) is taking Japanese in college right now.
He's talking to one of my other guy friends in Japanese on facebook.
Here's the conversation I had with him after seeing his spam. (Normally I let this crap go, but jesus, it's gone on for too long)
Me: I don't care what kind of bothering you're doing but jeez. At least have the decency to talk to him in a language he understands. How do you think it feels having someone talk to you in a completely different language? It gets annoying. And it's annoying to see. If you want to /brag/ about your skills talk to someone who understand it 8|
Him: it happens all the time at my school. so i learned not to care so much
Me: In YOUR school. This happens to YOU. You go to a school with Asians that know different languages, you're bound to face something like this. However, not many people speak Japanese in Texas.
Him: not many speak anything other than english. so to avoid notifying the shit out of raul. I'm used to it, he can use an online translator (it's free and it takes like a minute to do). plus, he spoke to me in spanish, i don't know spanish, but you don't see me complaining about it. if it really bothered him that much, he wouldn't have done it to me.
it's a joke, and we both know it.
I would have responded to that, but you know what. I really don't want to argue with him anymore.
OKAY FIRST OF ALL. ANYONE would know you can't trust online translators. Especially with the Japanese language. THEY ALWAYS FUCK SHIT UP. I know first hand experience because I tried to do Japanese homework with it not knowing any better.
SECOND OF ALL? HE PROBABLY RETALIATED FOR ALL THE SHIT YOU'VE TYPED. You started speaking in a different langauge to him first.
ngghh asdflksj.fk. I had to actually upload an icon for this because all my other ones can't give me enough rage. King Stan, you are a beautiful creature.
