You know you're an old timer when you talk to your western friends in part English and part Japanese / Chinese or whatever country you are in.

After spending years in 1 country teaching, you start to pickup phrases and expressions which sum up the situation perfectly. It's frightening when you start using these phrases to your western friends.
