Umm doesn’t sound like much of a weak spot! I’m impressed!
Randomly I was pretty good at Latin at school though.

I was born in the US so English was the primary language. But I had to fail the first grade before the educators discovered I had dyslexia. I was trying to talk in English but thought in Spanish.
I went to a special school after school soon enough I was speed reading. After H.S. I decided to join the Corps (USMC).
I came home with a Filipina wife. Over the years she taught me Tagalog (Bisayan, Waray-Waray and Cebuano which are Filipino dialects) and I taught her Spanish.
My sisters in-law's tell me how was I able to learn their language? Da! The Spanish had ruled the Philippines for over 500 years. One third of the language is Spanish.
Truth be told my old lady watches The Filipino Chanel every day. When we first got married I bought her the GMA satellite from the Philippines.
A rich Filipino family in Forbes park was trying to get me excited about a mostly white looking Chinese Filipino.
Her pinoy boy toy classmates were tall, rich and softer than doctors cotton.. they were boy George soft…
The Hard Rock Cafe in Manila..
I know where I come from and I kinda disrupt the narrative.
I want a keepney with Atzlan Geronimo or kicking horse.
I fear Mindanao, Muslims, providing refuge for terrorists ..
I love the Philippines…. Don’t know why guys get sprung on filipina trannies???
true box called me out and avoided a gratuitous azz whooping. I would have fed him a jolly bee fist burger…
