But yes, it's a shame that people who use English as their first language expect everyone else to speak it, it's really unfair.

No, no...we're not saying the English are arrogant. We're saying English-speakers, Cassie. Heck, I'm English...and Matt is too, right? So it wouldn't make sense if we were attacking ourselves.

Or were you talking to Bat when you said that?

[Bat]

I think she was attacking me when she said that, lol!

[Cassie]

Yes, I was talking to Bat, but he meant something different, it's okay now.

EDIT: No, lol, Bat, I wasn't attacking you. I was just defending the English as you would do America. I'm sorry if it sounded that way!

[Bat]

lol. We cleared that up.

[bambigoddess]

Oh, alright.

Alright, here goes: English, French, Italian, some German, most Spanish, some Dutch, and some Latin. German and Dutch are, by far, the hardest to speak.

Whoa! :o You speak so many languages! How do you learn them all, you're not even 18 yet?! Well done to you, you should be super-proud of yourself for that acheivement!

Hehe, thanks! Like I said, I worked really hard...but once you learn the basics, it's pretty easy from there.

[Bat]

I was kidding. It was sarcasm, lol.

Your apology is accepted, lol!

[bambigoddess]

Silly Brits and Americans.

[Bat]

lol.

Yeah, silly us!

[Cassie]

Good, good! Do we have sarcasm tags? They would be handy.
