My wife asked me why I don't treat her like I did when were dating. So, I took her out for dinner and a movie. And then dropped her at her parents'.

Yesterday, I read an article about the negative effects of drinking alcohol. It scared the life out of me. I am never going to read it again.

I will bite: trilingual?

The joke I know is
What do you call a person speaking three languages? - trilingual
What do you call a person speaking two languages? - bilingual
Waht do you call a person speaking only one language? Hidden content removed

That's the one I meant. Except the last answer is ; an is someone who doesn't even speak his own language fluently.

You don't have to worry about your laptop or phone spying on you. It's that vacuum cleaner that's been gathering dirt for years.

Fastidious Note: wouldn't "a Briton" or "British" be funnier and more on the nose?

Almost a quarter of Americans are biligual. Tens of millions of them speak both Spanish and English, for example.

Ok.

mandatory joke:

The British Ambassador walked briskly into the foyer of a Washington hotel, and stopped for a moment to speak with one of the bright-buttoned servitors in the lobby. After he walked on, an assistant manager who had noted the incident, went over to the boy and said, "What did the Ambassador want?"
"I don't know," answered the bell-hop. "He couldn't speak English."

Fun fact from my own experience. On an intenrational conference a chinese scientist was presenting a poster, a US scientist walked up and asked a question. Says the presenter: "Could you speak English, please?"
