Title

In the language learning world there are two types of people.

1. The people who learn for some practical purpose, their bf speaks the language, or they need it for work etc
2. The people who want to impress others by being a person who can speak X

Naturally most redditors fall into the second category. They're an underrated drama-positive group imo because they treat number of languages spoken in the same way that chuds view IQ points, like as in an objective measurement of your social ability. And so threads are often incredibly competitive, humblebragging, dragging each other down nonsense.

So like people who assume that if you can speak another language that you can also read and write in that language, and vise-versa. What annoying assumptions have people made that annoyed you?

Let's see what insults these redditors have had to put up with from the plebs today.

That you somehow have much more free time than them, because they "would love to learn a language, but can't find the time". If you're serious about it, you'll find the time.

It's insane that people can be so insulting when trying to justify why they don't have a skill that you have. They also say you're "lucky" to have such a "talent" for learning languages, as if you didn't put years of practice into that.

I HATE the talent word usage. I have picked up a lot of skills over the years, I wrote a book, I have calligraphic handwriting, I write nice notes, and I'm B1 in Russian. This did not happen in a day, I wasn't born writing fancy notes, I spent hundreds of hours honing those abilities to the point that it's effortless now, yet all I get is "Omg you're so smart and talented". Ugh.

Naturally they're are also extremely neurodivergent and don't know when someone's just being nice and that they don't actually want to learn Icelandic or whatever with you

They find some word, or a meme in that language and it's a word you don't know or regional slang you're not familiar with. So you can't tell them what it means.

"I thought you spoke ___(whatever language)"

As if they know every word in English.

>hey how do you say 'chair' in this language you're studying all the time?

>...

People ask -How do you say some word or phrase in another language. When you don't know... "So, you're not fluent?"

lol they keep getting found out as phonies

As I am an independent learner, they assume I just play with Duolingo and don't really know anything. Duo has really damaged the reputation of the independent learners :-(

Now everyone thinks I'm as low class as those, ugh, phone app people

I'm studying Japanese and i feel like i'm often judged and that people think i'm just someone who knows how to say "kawaii", "manga" and "sushi" and will lose interest in the language in three days despite having studied it seriously for years.

Japanese anime enjoyers probably have enough autism power to take it more seriously than most tbh

I actually didn't tell anyone that I'm learning Japanese. I'm a little scared that people would assume I'm this weird guy who loves hentai or something.

based autists being so uncool they can ruin someone's reputation just by association

It annoys me that they think I've given up or stopped studying the language because I don't mention it every second of every day.

implying they don't know exactly what you're doing and are taking bets on how soon you give up

There is nothing within the lore of 40k that would justify the existence of the Imperium on the basis of the fact that the Imperium is inherently genocidal, and in the wise words of the best Star Trek character: pic.twitter.com/k832f8XAuy

Exactly. There's a point where I feel like if you play the Imperium you need to be willing to just lean in to the fact that you're knowingly playing as the faction that's on the wrong side of history instead of trying to contort yourself into a pretzel trying to justify them.

I don't like the use of the word r-slur to describe developmentally disabled students, either. It's not their fault that their parents drank while pregnant.

One of the girls that killed this man in 2022, was rearrested for stabbing another man at a Subway station just 2 months ago. This group needs to go away for a long time. A danger to society.

!fellas you can't be afraid to stab a hoe just because she's a kid

Although one should always be skeptical and critical of what is posted on the 'farms, this accusation is so serious and, with far-reaching enough implications and consequences that I believe it is worth bringing forth before the users of this site. Today at 10:22 AM CEST time a user by the name of Coolio55 posted the following post on rDrama's community watch thread on Kiwifarms:

Turns out that that one image Homoshrexual posted on CREAMY_DOG_ORGASM's wall (The latter @ ing everyone to it) may have been 'p. Whoops!

To which Seafarer replied by calling dramatards attention-whore r-slurs and comparing them with soyteens:

Why is the Farms the only E-gossip site with a user base that isn't filled with the most braindead r-slurs on the planet? Everything on websites like /r/drama and soyjak.party feels very attention whorey, like everyone is always in a competition to shock or gross other users out.
