You speak English because it is the only language you know.

I speak English because it is the only language you know.

We are not the same.

Ich spreche Deutsch und Englisch weil du nicht Estnisch sprichst

Eesti keelt pole olemas

Sidenote, but as a Finn it's always so fun to read or hear Estonian. Very often I can get at least the gist of what's being said, and with this phrase I was like 75% sure of what it meant (the 25% comes from the fact that many Estonian words look familiar but actually mean something completely different than what I'd expect.) Finnic languages are pretty rare with like 7 million speakers total, so getting this "oh this language sounds so familiar" feeling isn't exactly common for us.

Somebody actually did a fun video on this where a Finn and an Estonian tried to guess what the other was saying.

One of my favorite things about Reddit was that whenever two Germans found each other in a comment section they would always start a long reply chain in German. I always thought it was cute.

tldr: the case was dropped because not a single witness could be found that would confirm any of those sexual assault allegations in front of police/prosecution

I don't usually like meme watermarks but I am okay with it here because it is required for the meme to make sense
