I'm an architect and interior designer. Currently I'm working at design bureau which focused on restaurant interiors. My hobby is character animation. I made some animated shorts myself and participated at some animation festivals. Also I very interested with all related to aviation. It's within my (not very close) plans to became a cessna pilot. I like modern English literature, art-house cinematograph, classical music and jazz, astronomical observations and bicycle riding. I'm ready to discuss all mentioned above and any other things you suggest) I'd be glad to know about different aspects of life in English-speaking countries, like food, customary practices etc.

    Wonder whether a person who invented this patter was native speaker.
    However I found this funny.
    Ok,
    - if you're a beginner in English then you should be able pronounce this: "Three witches watch three swatch watches. Which witch watches which swatch watch?"

    - if you're on an advanced level you should be able to deal with this:
    "Three switched witches watch three Swatch watch switches. Which switched witch watches which Swatch watch switch?"

    - but if you're a real connoisseur, so you've be able to say:
    "Three Swiss witch-bitches, which wished to be switched Swiss witch-bitches, watch three Swiss Swatch watch switches. Which Swiss witch-bitch, which wishes to be a switched Swiss witch-bitch, wishes to watch which Swiss Swatch switch?"

    Does the problem persists when you try to start to talk on your native language with one of your compatriots? Or it's about foreign languages and foreign people only?

    My recent favorites are 'Fargo' (tv series, but old classic movie is my favorite too) and 'Sherlock' (with Cumberbatch)

    Boris Vian. I know, people consider him trendy, but still his 'Foam of the Days' seemed very strange to me.

    I could imagine something wise of course, but even if I'll be loud enough for all the world to hear... who will listen? :)

    I didn't completely understood a joke about 'Africa'. Uganda - u kinda - you kind of [be kidding me]? Kenya - can you [believe it]? Am I correct? But what with 'Ghana'?

    I know that it's for native speakers, but I just couldn't help to put two more stories about forgetting things:

    An old woman invited her mates (also old women) to her home.
    When they came she served a tea for them.
    After they finished tea they had conversation... and she forgot that she regaled them already. So she served tea again... and again... and again.
    Eventually her guests said farewell and left.
    So they walked down the street and told one another about their hostess: She started to forget things. Today evening she didn't even suggested a tea for us.

    - Doctor, I got memory lapses.
    - Hmm... And for how long are you suffering it?
    - Suffering?... what?
    - Why. Memory lapses.
    - .... Which memory lapses?
