How can it be that there is a population of 250 Mil in Indonesia and 30 Mil in Malaysia but only 159mil people speak the language?

Are you Costa Rican? I fucked this girl when I went down there surfing. Once I got her going she was so nasty. CR girls seem to have their sexuality bottled up. She was a good fuck.

She used to visit Arizona, and I knew two brothers who both banged her.

This is her at the 2:00 min. mark.

This image hurts my autism.
Judging by the number of Russian speakers listed it seems to include L2 speakers. But If that's true then English should be about a billion+.
Fuck this image.

You have to take into account how many different countries speak english as either a first or second language, as opposed to simply how many people speak a certain language.

None of the above. There will be a nuclear war, followed by mass pandemics, with no significant survival of the species.

English. It is the "bitch" of other languages, meaning that it's very flexible in its ability to incorporate new terminology, slang, etc. It has been beaten so many times in history, whereas Chinese is not flexible at all. It won't work as an international language. Take for example the word "horse". English speakers could decide one day that "horse" no longer represents horse, but instead means fish. In Mandarin, the symbol for "horse" is quite literally the caricature of a horse.
