In South Africa you should never say "fork and knife" because it ends up sounding like "f***ing knife". We always say "knife and fork" instead. Thanks for your local perspective of Italy and your tips! They're awesome :)
I didn't know that! Makes sense actually haha
I usually ask for "silverware" or "eating utensils"
this I s fun to read …
that's why I only Eat with Bare Hands ....
Fok an knife
May I say, on behalf of my country the US, I apologize for some many of the commenters down below. I really respect and enjoy your content as I am planning on going to Italy in about a year (marrying a full Sicilian New Yorker lol). We are not all close minded and many of us love to know more about how to respectfully enjoy another country and or culture. It almost brought me to tears to read the hateful and absurd and unnecessary comments. Anywhoo, love the tips. Keep them coming please! xo
Thank you very much for your words Darcy! :)
Some people are not interested in other countries cultural rules and at the end it's fine as long as no one breaks the law.
I still don't get why they get so upset if some people care though haha
Sicily is stunning! You'll love it :)
Hell yea, finally someone saying it, I hate so much when people, after they find out I'm italian, they start saying "Ciao bella" ( I'm a man) or " mammamia" sooooo irritating
Lasciamo stare, ci si potrebbe fare un video intero sul 'Ciao bella'...
Itallish lmfao
Those facce di merda
Sam Farnsworth personal experience?
OOFA!
Note to self: pack pizza slicer and bring my own butter
Alan J Naw Dude That would be Way Worse.
Or just a fucking knife which is already on the table.
@@morgothfromangband6082 And a fucking fork too!
LOL!!!
Do it, you will be spotted as a foreigner as soon as you put out that butter.
I was kinda baffled when u said that in Italy you don't eat bread with olive oil at the restaurants! In Greece we always serve the bread with olive oil or butter and a lot of times the bread is served grilled, soaked in olive oil and spices and sometimes tomatoes on top! Anyway, lovely and informative video!
Yes! It's also the same thing in Spain and in Egypt. As well as a bottle of Balsamic vinegar. I would've sworn this would be a Mediterranean thing. How Italy doesn't do this is surprising. Maybe it's something only the Italians in Rome do not do?
I've been to Calabria region in Italy 10 years ago and there was olive oil and vinegar on the table every meal in the pizzeria. Dunno. And what's wrong with wearing bright top and sandals that scream "tourist"? I am one, am I not? :D
Other points were on the spot :) thanks
I think it's to aid cleaning the palette to be honest. It's like authentic italian recipes, there's a standard and it's there for a reason --- doesn't mean people can't go off "script" so to speak, but they don't come up with very specific ingredients or methods for no logical reason at all.
@@constantinepavlov442 Um yeah, oil and vinegar ... hmmm, maybe for a salad? lol
Because the bread on the table is there to eat with meat, fish or prosciutto. If you want bread with olive oil you just ask for bruschetta.
As a European I get lots of tourists yelling "DO YOU SPEAK ENGLISH?" No need to yell As children we are tought English in school. I become annoyed and some cases keep on speaking my language back.
The fountains are beautiful, only a crazy person would use it as a pool? I love the small drinking fountains 🤗
Also the Italians do It sometimes in other cities.
im just gonna say, i love your accent! it's so cute - it's like a mix of italian and then sometimes you have such a british accent! i love it!!
Haha thanks!
YES THANK YOU, when I see my fellow native English speakers screaming things like MAMMA MIA, CIAO BELLA, and whatever other stereotypical phrase they can think of, I cringe so hard 😭
Don't forget the hands hahaha
OOFA!
oh, by the way, I am in Rome (Ciampino)and my adorable native Italian landlords say no true Italian is offended by someone (Italian or not) saying "Mamma Mia" with or without the exaggerated hand gestures. Looks like it's just the cringy millennial bitches who are offended.
Mamma Mia Ciao Bella !!!! Ciao Elissa not Alyssa
@ Brian Pan- they always are, aren't they? The old saying "The only sure things in life are death and taxes" should be modified to " The only sure things in life are death, taxes, and millennials are offended by everything"...
Your “Hello beautiful people” will be my alarm ring.
Hahahaha
Love your channel!! I’m American, and I’m planning a trip to Italy in the fall. (Yay!!) So much good info!
Maddie Bartley You should definitely come here, it's beautiful. I actually live here now, my mum visited and she wants to move here also. 🙃
Midway through our trip we we’re at a restaurant quietly talking about how much we missed butter. The waiter within earshot looked over, winked, and then snuck us a whole stick of butter from the kitchen. He said he was from Austria so he understood missing butter lol.
Every American should watch!
What kind of animal jumps in a thousand year old fountain in public?

Hot ones

Nice to watch your clips before I travel to Rome and Milan next week. Thumbs up.
Love your videos! You have a very cool mixture of slight Italian and British accent. I traveled to Italy and fell in love with the culture. Honestly, out of all of my travels, Italians were some of the nicest people I ever met.
Deeply appreciate it. I’m going to Brescia soon, and this video explained many things to me.
Great video! Last night, my English learners watched your video. One of them being from Italy was highly interested. They laughed and enjoyed it so much. The italian student agrees with you.
This was soo helpful! A story I like to tell is when I was visiting family in Italy, I went on a date with a man from there and he could not speak english very well, and I cannot speak italian at all, and I tried to have him order me a slice of pizza at this restaurant.. he said ok and they came out with a whole pizza! I had a laugh, but this explains everything
You are delightful! Thank you for your insights!
I love your channel so much!! I am going to Florence and Rome for a school trip in November and I know a majority of the students will want to do this stuff but I WON’T LET THEM!
Hahaha you'll save them from embarassing moments, they'll be thankful later 😂
I've spent a lot of time in Italia, 3 years on and off, specifically in and around Umbria/Tuscany and Perugia. I Had Pizza pre cut and shared between people many times, Had bread with oil at a restaurant, I have an Italian father but I speak English, Hand gestures have always been a part of my family comunication and I've never offended anyone using hand gestures in Italia, When entering shops I always greet in Italian and Ciao! when I leave, That's just basic manners and i always try to speak and learn from people around me. I drink wine whenever i want lol, I wear all my own clothes and what I'm comfortable wearing, Normally shorts and t shirt or vest and trainers. What I wear should not offend anyone, I Never entered a fountain, that would be quite unhygenic and embarrasing, respect the fountains people. Just my personal experience. The answer to really not offending anyone is the same all over the world, Be Tollerent, Be yourself, Be respectfull and embrace the culture. Ciao!
Thank you for all your tips. My wife and I will be visiting Rome soon. I am learning a lot of good information from you.
Maybe we will bump into you there hahaha. 👍😀
I absolutely LOVED your video! Keep on putting out good content haha! I subscribed too! I hope to see more videos soon. Anyways, keep up the good work!!! ☺
I run a study abroad program and have asked my students to watch all your videos. Grazie!
That was a very interesting video, especially the part about cutting the pizza yourself. In Germany for example it is normal that the pizza is already cut, especially when you get it delivered to your home.
We don't cut it cause it stays warm for longer :)
Because Germany is famous for its pizza. ...
it really is the same in Italy, I think the girl is a bit confused
Sliced pizza is American thing too, when I go to Italy I’ll remember “no slices”
When I first traveled to Italy I had the pleasure of visiting Torino, Genoa and Savona and I never saw any Italians talking loudly or using exaggerated hand gestures. Actually it was quite the opposite; most Italians I encountered were very reserved, quiet and calm. I asked my Italian friend about this and she said the loud talking and wild hand movements are a stereotype and most Italians aren't like that. Another funny story is that during my time in Italy I fell in love with "espresso" but I found out that Italians don't say "espresso" when ordering it they say "cafe". So I started saying "cafe" at the coffee shop but the server would recognize I'm a tourist and would confirm with me by saying "espresso?" or show me the small cup and make sure it's what I want. And the same with sparkling water; I fell in love with "acqua frizzante" but when I would buy a bottle in the shops, the cashier would recognize I'm a tourist and would say something like, "You know this one has gas?". And I would say, "Yes, I prefer it!".
Exactly. The big hand gesture thing depends on the context. You don't see ordinary people in relaxed situations throwing hands at each other. Maybe, in traffic, you see hands going "YOUR CAR LIGHTS, SUMMER CHILD!!!".
Great video, thanks, everything you said is very true. I always say Salve, Palare Inglaise ? And most people are fine and helpful, and I will actually go on to say I found the Italian people amazingly nice natured and just want to help you, be fair, and try to get what you would like. The Italian people have feelings too, so consider them too by learning some words or language, and I had great fun, they think its cool and sweet.
Thanks for the tips! I’m American and can’t wait to visit Italy 🇮🇹❤️
Very nice video! Informative! Thank you
Thank you for the video, it was more than excellent! I Subscribed.
Brava!! Grazie mille!
Grazie mille for the tips! I loved your channel!
Grazie! I'm glad you like them! :)

How funny ^^
Nice greetings from Germany
In Europe as general, yes, these are great tips. I teach French and I could show my students this as well for much of it.
I really like your videos!! You’re always so enthusiastic! 😁😁
Thank you darling! 😁
I had wine with pizza in Rome, nbd. I don't care if that is "tourist", I just prefer wine over beer or soda.
I usually have plain water so I'm the weird one 👍
Just get what you want :)
Wine is fine but liquor is quicker.
@@LoveMokes Lol yall kill me, she's just keepin it real af. This is exactly the typa stuff I wanna hear before I go! Keep doing you girl!!
Cant imagine not liking beer :O
As an italian: it's perfectly fine to drink wine with pizza. Believe me. We are more used to beer, but wine is absolutely fine too and nobody will look you strange because of that.
If there's something that WILL make you look strange is to have lunch or dinner drinking cappuccino. That's considered gross here. Cappuccino is for breakfast only, and, in ALL cases, never to be used while you're having salty food.
In Portugal, the bread at the table is always accompanied with butter and sometimes olive oil.
Different traditions... I think people who ask for that are not trying to be rude :)
Maria João Primo Same in England
I like Portugal better than Italy. Love from the usa.
I like Spain better than Portugal.
Same in Greece!!!
In Italy they NEVER use butter.
But people don't go to the restaurant to eat bread and olive oil. Like wtf?!?! Loool.
Bread is only used to eat with salad or vegetables, antipasti (meat and cheese) or to eat the rest of thr sauce of a meal.
If you want to eat like that you order a Bruschetta that is different.
people actually jump in the fountains? LOL animals
If you were down to your last 3,000 euros and you saw a 2 euro coin in the deep end of the fountain, what would you do? Now who's being naive? 😀
@@janniwalugembe4386 from Caritas, an institution that helps people in need
Bravo another great vlog grazie ciao
good to know! going to Italia this August :)
IF People VISIT ITALY,... PLEASE RESPECT the culture and try to speak the native language,...or simply speak your language and apologize sincerely Be RESPECTFUL Please
when I was trying to teach a friend of mine some "Basic Italian Phrases" they screamed "MAMAMIA" with that hand gesture....But now they stopped doing it and im very glad :)
First time watching your videos, I love them. If you ever venture to America you will notice a difference between people of Italian descent on the east coast and from the midwest like Chicago where I'm from. My parents immigrated here. Italians from the east coast embrace all bad Italian stereotypes. It's very sad.
I love your vlogs!
Ohhh verrry useful 😍😍
It's sad that we use our vacation time and spend hard earned money and then are expected change what we do. I've spent a lot of time and money in Italy. My conclusion; wear comfortable walking shoes. Respect yourself and others. Ask "Quanto Costa" before you buy anything. ...or you will often get overcharged Be yourself and enjoy....and watch your purse or wallet in big cities.
When in Rome do as Romans do. Entitled tourist attitudes aren't welcome here unless you're willing to pay up. A tourist trap will surely give you that pineapple pizza if you're willing to pay the tripled price tag.
A fiend of mine who is Sicilian always drizzle olive oil all over bread and taught me to do so even in restaurants ))))))
Nice info!
I love Italy and Italians so much. I really want to understand why? Seems to me that Italy is my future home. Thanks
kasandra mendoza Have you actually lived there? I used to say the same thing until I moved there.
Your videos are very informative. My husband travels to Italy often for work, and sadly we have seen all the examples you have given.
Thanks Mary!
I know, I frequently see them too... Glad these videos can be useful for you and your husband! :)
They sliced my pizza in Rimini (without asking) I had and always have wine with my pizza in Milan and oil is always on the table with bread in Bergamo, people just go to Italy be respectful and enjoy that most beautiful country. ps wear what you want nobody cares what the tourists look like.
or maybe they see you as tourist and change to "for italian" to "for tourist". I don't know but it could be
Italian culture is changing and adapting, she's a bit more old school --- and I mean that as a compliment to her, she clearly has manners.
Thank you very much for your very valuable tips. It's important that we NOT make a 'brutta figura'.
You are great, I learned a lot from you
Hey great vid!
Haha when it comes to pizza, I've found some place do slice a pizza for you (and it seems almost more common if they think you're a foreigner) but most places don't..
Where I live, there's a Naples style pizzeria.. on their website when you want to order delivery, they have a section for special requests and at the top of the list is "sliced" haha... however when sitting there I've never seen anybody order a sliced pizza. I recently went for a pizza with an American and he was shocked that the pizzas were individual sized.. from his perspective (and other Americans I've spoken with), it was too small to share but too big to be a "personal" size
I've been in situations where I've had two people speaking next to me speaking to each other about me "maybe he speaks english" "should we ask him if he knows where XYZ is" or I've even heard some foreigners in different countries (not just Italy) saying horrible things about the locals assuming nobody understands... it really is horrible...
Haha wine with pizza may not be the most appropriate meaning, but haha what's worse is when you see people order Pasta alla Carbonara with an espresso, oh goodness... I've seen this too many times
looking forward to the next vid :)
I had no idea! Only for the delivery pizza I hope... But it doesn't make sense to me because the pizza cools down faster if you slice it!
Haha it's not that big come on! Plus the roman pizza is thinner, so it's way easier to eat an entire one on your own :D
Yeah it happened to me too! That's why I thought it was a good idea to include it haha
I swear if I worked in a restaurant I would kindly suggest my clients to not have pasta and espresso together... How can someone even think about mixing the two!
Thanks for the detailed comment, I'm glad you enjoyed the video! :D
i was ordering cappucino -during the day. also with the meal. kill me . haha.
You can have Lambrusco with pizza. It pairs quite well with pizza.
I'm Greek and I truly understand your struggle! We love you guys. Love Respect and Greetings❤👍✌😍😘
We love you too :) And Spanish too! And Portuguese. Greek/Latin roots are still present around Mediterranean (even in Portugal which is on the ocean, yes) :)
I love you italy and Italians from uk ❤️👍
No wine with pizza? I think we failed on that tip on our first visit to Rome. Love your videos!
Haha it's okay, lots of tourists do!
Next time you could try having pizza with a beer and see if you like it! :D
me too lol
As an italian: it's perfectly fine to drink wine with pizza. Believe me. We are more used to beer, but wine is absolutely fine too and nobody will look you strange because of that.

So, for the most part Don't be Rude! Don't jump in fountains, make stereotypes and talk about people.
Check! 😁
Good. Coming here screaming MAMMAMIA PIZZA PASTA CIAO BELLA is like goind in USA screaming " 'Murica, OMG, McDonald, Obesity, schoolshooting, yeeeeaaahh". It's just rude and ofc people won't like you
Quando siami stati in Umbria e cercavamo a parlare in italiano, sempre ci rispondevano in Inglese :D
Tu hai un bellissimo accento in Inglese :)
Saying ciao to Italians instead of bello definitely makes the, happier!
It's really that easy! :D
I always say ciao to people I know or to important people like polizia I use Salve. 😎
While I'm here.
Ciao, buongiorno! 🤗
CoralRae
Yes but it you take notice of all the vids and books and like the lady above doing the vid you only say ciao to friends too informal for anybody else. Say ciao to everyone believe me nobody gives a damn.
Ciao! Ti seguo da poco, e non commento mai, ma volevo proprio dirti che sei bravissima a parlare inglese! Io sto cercando di migliorarmi, e ho iniziato a seguirti proprio per questo (sia per la pronuncia, sia per il listening), e inoltre sembri molto simpatica. Continua così :)
Grazie Anna, sei gentilissima!
Ho ancora molto da migliorare con la pronuncia 😂 ma sono davvero contenta che i miei video ti piacciano!
Rome Inside a me sembra già perfetta! Ah, poi gli argomenti dei video sono molto interessanti. Continuerò a seguirti💪🏼❤
Grazie!
Haha I admire your braveness in using your italian, practicing and making mistakes is the best way to learn! 😃
An espresso perfavore . Sorry I only did one lesson on speaking Italian. I know almost nothing XD
Nice video. let's hope the English soccer fans don't make a "brutta figura" this weekend at the Rome-Liverpool game!
Let's hope so!
Many restaurants just have some olive oil on the tables. If you are going to a traditional restaurant, the oil is just there.
Your videos are cool and interesting. Please make one about scholarships and job opportunities in Italy
Hmm thanks for the info I'll always keep in mind 😜😜and by the way it may be rude to ask but can u upload an vid about Wat an Italian likes
Your pretty💛❤️
I have a question. If you're not allowed to ask for olive oil or butter with your bread, are you just supposed to eat dry bread or how does that work?
I have certainly been in Italy and heard both Caio Bella and mama Mia both in Florence and Rome
Italians deffo say mama Mia and Caio Bella
yes it's very common for italians, but if you are a
foreigner, 98% you are using them wrong and could possibly sound rude or that you are making fun of them
Ciao Buongiorno! 🤗
A me succede normalmente una cosa opposta, quando sono in Italia, viene presupposto che io non capisca l’italiano... ho ormai sentito delle cose molto interessanti. E poi la faccia di quelle persone quando mi giro e rispondo in italiano.... 😜
Hahaha fai bene!
Perché pensano che tu non capisca?
Every Italian restaurant i've been to in the US serves bread WITH seasoned olive oil for the bread.
In the US, precisely, not in Italy!!!👍😉
When I travel, it’s all about what I can afford and what I can carry: a small backpack. That means I wear my only pair of shoes: sandals. When my feet get cold, I put on my only pair of socks, and I’m so glad I have them with me. When you visit my country, wear what you want and eat what you want however you want to eat it. Unless you are very rude, we will help you...in English...because we have no other language skills, unfortunately.
"Excuse me, where's the nearest swimming pool / beach?"

Take wine with your Pizza. Trust me I garantee that Nobody in Italia cares lol Done it many times.
i never actually thought about walking the streets of italy making the italian hand gesture and saying "mama mia" but that would be hilarious to do with a friend 😂
It's like walking in NY with a cowboy hat and some chicken nuggets, screaming "9/11, obesity, OMG". People will get offended
A like a good fresh beer from time to time but I would seriously miss my glass of wine with my pizza ;-)

when I was living in Florida, I was surprised that the Amenricans, when using fork and knife, first cut the meat using the knife with their right hand, then exchange the knife with a fork and use the fork to bring the food to the mouth. ... very strange for an Italian
Maria Consuelo how do you do it lol
I'm American and I find it strange to be honest, but you'll see that more in certain parts of the country than others. I won't go on because some Americans will get offended. ;)
@@yafavbrujita762 You use the knife on the left and always keep the fork on the right, why should you change hands lol
so if you order french fries is it rude to put salt on them?
I have been told that ,on a day in Rome ,you get fined for wearing shorts ,or dipping your feet in that famous fountain you have over there . This rule was in the 90s ,so I don't know if it's still relevant nowadays .
I remember on one particularly scotching day in Florence stopping at a small cafe and slowly ordering a glass of mineral water. After listening to me struggle through the phrase replied in broad American English, “Will that be with bubbles or without?” 😳
Haha wa he american or italian though?
If he was italian, he probably much appreciated the effort you made! :)
No idea, it was a girl btw, I should have said.
Rome Inside
True
@@RomeInside The use of the word bubbles tells me she should be Italian. I think in America we would ask if they wanted it carbonated ... or call it either club soda or seltzer.
I am Italian, live in Italy and the bit about not having wine with pizza is totally bogus. This person is what Americans would call a prude. You want butter or oil with bread, ask for it. The waiter won't be offended and will bring it no problems.
Thank God. It seems really weird to me to be judged on my food combination choices by people working in restaurants. Dry bread is not appealing to me - I don't want bread without butter or at least something to spread on it. To me it seems very strange and rude for someone to judge me badly for that. So I'm glad to know that that's not something that all Italians would do.
Just a someone I’m afraid we will definitely be judged on asking ketchup))))
Thank youuuuuuuuu
Thank you for this comment! Everybody should order or wear what he or she wants...
Thank you for this comment. I always ask for butter with my bread. I’ve never gotten the stink eye from a waiter.
Buon giorno, ho una domanda: cuando uno viaggia a Italia, se la persona non parla Italiano, e migliore parlare Inglese, o Spagnolo? Io parlo Spagnolo, e me face piu similar al Italiano.
Thanks for listening, and pardon my broken Italiano.
Your videos are great and fun.
Cheers, from Los Angeles, CA.
The Spanish language has many similarities to Italian, but Italian has nuances all of its own. I'm English but also speak a little Italian and a little Spanish. A Spanish person will be understood just as much as an English speaking person in my experience.
A me la pizza la tagliano se chiedo 😂 sempre più comodo! E poi io di solito a volte la pizza la divido
So I am going to be moving to Italy as a Swiss citizen from America born and raised here in America third generation American Swiss i’ve never personally been to Italy but I’ve never fit in here in America and I do not speak the language too well but I do understand and speak a little
Also I am mentally disabled not severely just slightly so my comprehension level in my learning ability is slow do you think I’ll do well in Italy
"drizzle"
Ah i love that word
I’m going to Italy soon and I don’t have a problem with any of these except I’ll drink whatever I want with pizza.
maybe useless after a year, but this is not just an unwritten rule, wine is something that you won't find in pizzerias. in restaurants, you can tho!
Ordering wine with pizza in the US would be peculiar as well.
As a Roman fellow, I have to admit that I agree with you a hundred percent, which also makes me think of how extremely repressed we can be - compared to other western countries, but you’re right. We are REALLY concerned with the concept of “bella figura” and we’re judging a lot of people on that.
But yes: no flip flops, do not bathe in the water fountains and most importantly: do not wear sweatpants everywhere you go. We don’t need to know how lazy you are. We all work our ass off and yes, we’re all tired, but dress appropriately and make an effort. Nobody likes a slouch.
Mirko Frollano It’s ok. But keep that rubbish for yourself and let people do what they want to do. Otherwise you’ll come across as an idiot.
Lot's of people speak English in Italy not everyone, but a lot especially in big cities.

I am going to take a trip to Italy in July and I was wondering, is it frowned upon to eat pizza with your hands in Italy?
You can't, it flops about like a thin greasy flappy dog tongue. You need cutlery.
@@tweetiepie551 what?!no
We it with our hands all the time!I trick is to take it in your hand to creat a curve so that things on it dont fall
@@angelicagufi5790 no the trick is to bake a crust that doesn't gloopdroop like a zombies moobs
Excellent tips....and oops, i will stop combining pizza & wine. so wine is only with pasta?
red wine for meat
white wine for fish
so the choice of wine for pasta depend of sugo if with tomato,vegatables,fish or meat
Pizza + Beer is the perfect choice
Hey Zack, Luca explained it perfecly here in the comments :D
Ideally, we try to stick to either meat or fish for the whole meal.
So if I get a seafood pasta I'll get some sort of fish dish as a secound corse and with these you order white wine.
On the opposite, if my meal is meat based I'll go with a red wine.
Let me know if you have any more questions! :D
Grazie Luca
Grazie Elisa
Bump that I need that olive oil
Out of curiosity, what do consider "hot" when it comes to weather ?
Average temps in July and August are like very high 80's, almost 90.

Le prime due tips riguardo le brutte figure in Italia riguardano il cibo. Famosela 'na domanda :-D
Im still learning italian and im still a beginner ;-;
and im wishing to go to Italy

Little tip, in America we don’t say freaking every time we want to put énfasis on our sentences, it’s rude.
she's not travelling in USA, and yes, if you show as a classic tourist, you will be only consider as that, a
foreigner. Maybe they will not say it to you, but they will think it, and talk to each other
Treating fountains as pools is also very weird in the US, as far as I've seen. Americans may, however, throw coins in a fountain, is this considered strange?
Yes it's a bit strange :) we don' t throw coins in the fountains (except for the Trevi one)
No it isn't strange. It is strange that italians don't do it...every other western european nation does.
So much cultural difference! My sister and I were wondering the whole time in Italy why they never serve oil with their bread we thought it was so strange! Also one of our waiters kept asking "are you okay" I don't think he knew that's kinda rude to say to Americans when you're out, I think he was trying to see if we were enjoying the food which we were but he kept saying it which made my sister and I so uncomfortable lol
he was asking if you were done, if you enjoy it or if you wanted to order something else
He just asked you if enjoyed the food, is their job they have to, is so silly feel uncomfortable for this!.
You're weird!.
