I can say "I don't speak [language], sorry." in about 10 languages, just so if someone tries to speak to me I can say that to them.

So far only one person has said any follow up things in that language. I like to think it was "but you're speaking it now!" but probably just about work stuff.

Is it weird that I get a very tiny kick out of the slight confusion I can see on some people's faces?

Nope, i also get that kick out of it haha. Love it.
Though, i must say that my french is really terrible so i might as wel just not speak it
