Irish teacher: Meadb, why don't you see if [the acoustic guitarist in the restaurant] will play something you can dance to? Maybe you can get us our dinner for free
.
Me: Well, I have danced for my dinner before, but I don't think it's going to work in an Italian restaurant.
.
Irish teacher: You've really gotten free dinner? I don't think I have any talents like that...Perhaps I could recite some medieval Welsh poetry?
.
Student: Go for it. Do you have it memorized, or do you need a book?
.
Other student: Yeah, who _doesn't_ love Middle Welsh poetry?
.
Meadb: And, of those, who would _admit_ to not liking it?
.
Student: That would be social death!
