Line 816:
* Attempting to use the car radio's volume control to make human passengers louder.
* Completely losing your balance on non-moving escalators. Moving ones are fine. Stairs are fine. Escalators that ought to be moving but aren't are confusing.
* (Mandarin) Chinese ''hanzi'' and Japanese ''kanji'' use almost identical characters, but are pronounced differently and sometimes mean different things. Consider "大丈夫", which is pronounced "''da zhang fu''" and means "great man/husband" in Chinese, but is "''daijoubu''" and means "okay" in Japanese. This can trip up people fluent in one who try to learn the other. Sometimes the Japanese Language Proficiency Test exploits this by giving incorrect options for select-the-reading questions so as to trick Chinese users who are coasting by on their existing knowledge.
