{{quote|'''Chang:''' Every once in a while, a student will come up to me and ask, 'Señor Chang, [[Ask a Stupid Question|why do you teach Spanish]]?' They say it just like that. 'Why do ''you'' teach Spanish?' (''[[Beat]]'') 'Why YOU? [[Asian and Nerdy|Why not math?]] Why not cryptography? [[All Asians Know Martial Arts|Why not martial arts?]]' I mean, surely, it must be in my nature to instruct you in something [[Sarcasm Mode|that's ancient and secret]], like, oh, building a wall that you can see from outer space. Well, I tell you why I teach Spanish: [[Get a Stupid Answer|it's none of your business]], OK? And I don't want to have any conversations about what a [[Inscrutable Oriental|mysterious, inscrutable man I am]]. [[Asian Rune Chant|Oh heehee, oh huh huh]]. I am a [[Informed Ability|Spanish genius]]! In [[Gratuitous Spanish|español]], my nickname is ''El Tigre Chino.''}} |
