Agreed, reading this summoned the SpongeBob narrator in my mind.

I'm a geek, always around computers, gaming, tinkering, etc.

Once I moved for work, to Spain, didn't know the language. My laptop broke, like, when opening it, the plastic was fatigued and the screen just bent.

I was broke, expensive training... Couldn't replace it before a few months.

So I went to the bar of the inn I was starting at. And just, tried to pick up some words.

Long story short, after a while I knew everyone in town, had many friends, and after work, laptop or not, I would go to the bar. I got fluent in Spanish too.

Happiest time of my life. I don't think my mental health has ever been as good as back then.
