Re: [Cz-L] Discrimination Thread

I will not say that I remembered Arthur from 2nd grade.
At the age of seven, I was still more interested in girls than in boys.
But, I am reasonably sure we studied Ukrainian as a second language.
Not that I remember any of it, either.
Three alphabets before the age of eight, was just too much for me.
