More about this :)))
When the dentist offers an option of watching a movie during the treatment, and you
always
bring movies in "weird" languages on USB sticks... until the dentist asks you for
advice on
learning English, and you recommend lyricstraining and memrise and all that jazz, and
next
time you decide to watch a movie in English for your dentist's language learning
benefits :) |

And you also count as deranged if the film you insist on seeing during dental treatment
is Marathon Man.

There's a famous dental torture scene there. An evil Nazi war criminal (and a dentist)
repeatedly asks the main hero a question "Is it safe?" to which the latter having no idea
what the question is about gives various answers, but the evil doctor keeps torturing him
(by teasing the cavity in his tooth with dental probe) regardless of the torturee's
answers.

You realize children's laughter sounds the same in any language.

When you spend New Year testing which twitter hashtags currently get fireworks added :)

When you feel jealous every time you see somebody speaking a language they learned that you haven't, even though you've never had any desire to learn it.
