I'll never forget what my very first Spanish teacher confided in me after many many sessions. I had signed up in hopes of intercourse with a busboy at the taberna in the basement of my workplace. You think I've got cheap furniture. She told me that all of hers was folding. Folding furniture. And she had a scar. That was visible during our meetings. But that wasn't all, not just the scar. There was... some facial... displacement. Not by birth. And muscle wasting.
I simultaneously translated the following from an instructional video tape during one of our lessons:
Once global warming sets in, I'll have to take my babies to a cooling center.
Then the señora wept into her dyed cotton crepe jacket.
