The problem was that he thought his Portuguese was better than every one else&#8217;s.  It was beyond annoying the strange situations because his perceptions were so different than reality.  He was constantly correcting my Portuguese, which was no problem.  But he was always wrong.  I guess I was being pacifist, but I never said anything.  Just let it slide.  But then one day in a taxi with a bunch of friends, he corrected my Portuguese one too many times (wrongly again), and I just exploded.  I have not spoken to him since.<\/p>\n<p>For whatever reason, I made this the subject of my first cartoon at ToonDoo.  I hope to make many more cartoons in the future on a wide variety of subjects.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have always wanted to find a program to make cartoons, and now I found a great one &#8211; ToonDoo.
