A foreign language is an a**hole

The beginning is trivial.

“Ah, I just want to speak a couple of words.”

But once that happens, “Ah, I wish I could have basic conversations.”
But once that happens, “Ah, I wish I could have longer conversations.”
But once that happens, “Ah, I wish I could work in this language.”
But once that happens, “Ah, I wish I could read books in this language.”
But once that happens, “Ah, I wish I could speak fluently like a native.”

It never ends.

What do you want me to do?
How far do you want to go? You a**hole.
