When your car breaks down and you sit on the side of the road in 98°F / 37°C weather, and one of your first
thoughts is, "This would be a great chance to catch up on my Polish flashcards!" When your mom picks you
up an hour later, you are still happily absorbed in your Anki decks.

When you are rather embarrassed that you don't know the answer to this question, but then you perk up
because it occurs to you that it would be fun to start logging important Anki stats in a spreadsheet for easy
reference. And then you start thinking about the Spanish translation of "spreadsheet" (hoja de cálculo),
which happens to be one of your favorite phrases, and so you feel even happier (although it is too bad
that your computer is currently broken so you can't make the spreadsheet right now).

When you get an Amber alert text message listing a
license plate with the letters "gde" and
immediately think it must be a Serbian license
plate.

When you decide to not buy the Catalan translation of a popular young adult book you just
happened across in a bookstore in Boston, because you don't plan to, and have never
wanted to, study Catalan, and you're already spending money on a French sci-fi novel and
TWO Hungarian fantasy novels that you'll learn to read someday, and you really have to
draw the line somewhere.

Aaaand you regret it everyday since then....
