#he's also literally the whiniest person i've ever met

[nordic-language-love]

talked to one of my colleagues and he said he's lived in 20 different countries and spent most of his life in the uae although he's originally from an english-speaking country. so i asked him if he spoke any other languages. and he seriously fucking said "no, everyone just speaks english anyway" :|

#i mean i get not learning the language of every single country you've lived in to fluency if you move around a lot but wow #i figured if he'd spent most of his life in the uae he'd maybe know a bit of arabic?? but apparently not #he's been in japan a year and he's so proud of the fact he just gets out a phrase book and points to what he wants to say :| #he's also literally the whiniest person i've ever met #everything is a problem and he's always the hard-done-by victim #he truly is the anti-me honestly #i don't even know what he likes bc he never talks about what he likes he just spends all his time complaining #asides from ww2 history and i only know that bc someone got him a book for his birthday
