    Unfortunately you are not allowed to speak in tongues outside of those you were born into.

    Also nice username.

    yea, it’s irritating by way of inconvenience, especially in monocultures like the states, but it isn’t wrong or a “bad” behavior, so go for it.

      As someone that does this…

      People say I’m irritating but endearing.

      So take that as you will.

    Depends on context.

    This is the same idea as answering the phone with “Talk to me” which is generally from a pompous arrogant character.

    Like “I’m here, what do you have to say?”

    Howdy howdy howdy!

    I honestly can’t stop greeting people like this, even though I’ve never stepped foot in a place where it doesn’t snow

    All the people I’ve met who did that also happened to be irritating douchebags. Now whether there is a causal relationship and what is the direction of that relationship, I can’t say.

  I’ve lived in Texas as long as I can remember, but I was born in California.

  Spanish finds it’s way into my everyday speech constantly.

  My family is white as fuck, but my mother became fluent in college.

  I took Spanish in high school for my foreign language credits.

  While I’m not fluent, I’ve worked closely with people who primarily speak Spanish with a little broken English.

  The little bit of Spanish I recall, and the little bit of English they know, allowed us to work together.

  Is that irritating?

    no, speaking a second language to communicate with others isn’t irritating, especially in the southern and SW US, where Spanish is so common.

    why did you feel that someone, using a foreign word, to look cool, was similar to you using a second language, to communicate with its native speakers? Honest question here. That seems like a big leap in logic to me.
