I didn't learn Japanese, geez. I said I learned a lingua franca and I know that Japanese is only spoken in Japan so it doesn't count, geez.

what language?
>>17117561
Spanish
>>17117564
that's far from useless, are you planning on traveling to spain or latin america?
>>17117578
Yeah I will travel to Spain for a month
I live in Asia though so Japanese may seem more "useful" (maybe not)
People are idiots, news at 11.
>took time and effort to learn a new tongue
>people berate you for it
What's new? It has been this way for ages. Someone will always berate you for it, it's just the way it is. At least you added something to your book of experiences. Fuck them.
Do it not for praise, but so you can call them shit to their face without them knowing it.
