- Paying 4€ per load for laundry seems quite reasonable.
- Life without bakeries every 10 meters is not only meaningless but impossible.

- You've started to add up your purchases in your head in a store so you can give exact change at the till.
- You say "Chut!" instead of "Shhhh!" even when you're speaking English.
