#1 Plagerizing Will Smith now?

To me this statement is as arrogant as the "clinging to Bible and Guns" remark. (gotta take a walk, be right back). What, we kids were not raised right? I guar-un-tee the language bo speaks, Ivy League, is not the same language spoken out here; ever hear of a 'Post Turtle' mister? I know that he probably had to learn Arabic in his studies, but out in this part of the world a second language is also a requirement already - but we sure didn't know what arugula was until this year. Scholastic background in language - Spanish, French, Japanese. Learned on the fly utilitarian German and Italian. Moshi Moshi Usted smartypants, which dialect of Spanish should I have learned? Becuase what I learned is not the same language my neighbors/friends speak. This chic self loathing disgusts me.
