True, we are both ignorant. But it's no shame being ignorant in matters of no consequence that don't concern us. What I can't abide is that AFTER your baseless claims and your insult you chose to...

Io pure parlo un po d'italiano. Sono stato in Svizzera durante l'estate e o avvuto la fortuna di pratticare a parlare il francese e l'italiano con degli amici che o incontrato la. Ciao Italia! :)
