Genuine question, how many days of your life have you had to spend on this particular tinfoil convention?

understanding Spanish throws it off, but this is hilarious either way. LOL

  • I understand Spanish being from Latin America but for a long time I couldn't understand a single thing he said because of the Spaniard accent and crazy laughter, and I enjoyed the memes just fine. But then few years ago I watched it with the real subtitles and something clicked in my brain so now when I watch it I mostly understand him fine. But now the memes are ruined because it's hard to hear and read two speeches at the same time. Just an annecdote about our weird brains.

    • Just to add here that this guy doesn't have a "standard" Spanish accent. He was from Andalucía (I don't remember where exactly), a region rather known for its accent being difficult for even native speakers to understand.

      Anyway after I moved to Andalucía I now can understand the story he tells, but I have to pay close attention!

    • he is doing a deep deep Andalusian accent, plus the extra noises and laughs makes hard to understand. The normal Andalusian accent it's perfectly understandable by anyone that understands Spanish.
