Same principle I used to justify taking Latin in high school. But it did help me appreciate the hilarity of the word "defenestration" after learning "fenestra" means window.
After 8 years of studying German starting in middle school and after 2 months of living in Germany in college, my German professor pulled me aside and asked if I had a learning disability that kept me at the 3rd grade reading/writing level. I wasn't even mad at the question.
For sure. Yelawolf, to me at least, seemed to be the only clear man not in contention. You could make a very strong case for everyone else on the track.
I'm pretty great at languages but start talking technicalities of music to me and I'm hopeless. Which is why it's kind of dumb I wrote a novel series where one protagonist is in a band. 😅
I'm horrible at languages too. Dabbled in Japanese in high school, Spanish in college, German in graduate school. Speak none.
I tell myself it helps me speak English, the stupidest and most illogical language, better.
Maybe we’d be better if our base language wasn’t a prank. We burned all our skill points by twelve.
I was 12 in 1992. A solid case could be made America and I reached the top of the parabola at the same time.

This factoid makes me extremely happy. Defenestrate is a top 25 verb, easy.

I switched my major to linguisics. All is well.
The real question is: who had the hardest verse on that song?
It was a real Olympic event. And convinced me there wasn’t enough Big K.R.I.T. or Danny Brown in my world, which has to be worth some points.

Poor Yelawolf. It’s like showing up for The School of Athens without a toga.
They set that man up.

Hey, why let reality win? And I think we could all benefit from a hint of Metalocalypse in our casts.
Nice, I can't learn language or music, but me draw picture good.
Sounfs like a winning path. I have a lot of admiration for visual artists. I’d trade half of English for some line skills.
