I don't think he'll stumble so close to the finish, I say 3. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I have to say that I think he'll be able to finish 6 before he runs out of time (or sanity). Although I hope he can pull it off and finish off all nine! Go, Slacker!

I'm guessing four, and I hope he's more successful than that, but if he completes all 9 languages, he'll have a very serious case of Mega-Penitenziagite!

What does "Mega-Penitenziagite" mean?

If you look at some tags or keywords, you will occasionally see the word "Penitenziagite"
This is a word given to us by our administrator to describe someone who is trying to learn many languages at once but not necessarily very well I added the prefix Mega--because of the ambitious scope of Slacker's plan! 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I say 2 - he's already starting to crack. I think during the third Pimsleur course the lines between reality and Pimsleur will blur, his identity will dissolve and he'll start to believe he's Alfonso listening to a Pimsleur lesson about Slacker.
but... one part of his spaced repetition-ruined mind will want to escape from that land where the food is always on top of the table and come back to our world... and he will throw off the headphones in a glorious Matrix-moment of enlightenment and come back to us. 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||
