    I've been learning Japanese since I was fifteen. It took six years to get my mom to not call it Chinese. I gave up on grandma. Dad is a big k-drama fan so he knows the difference between Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, though he can't speak any of them.
    The first time my friends and I went to a dim sum place, they did ask me to order. But this was because I had just taken a Chinese culture class so they thought I would know what was in everything. I just pointed at stuff that looked good. Hahaha.

    So he said, "Would you like to reach down my trousers." Or "I would like to get into your trousers." They are most definitely banned. Lol
