(AMP) TORONTO, Canada \u2013 Local bartender Henry McCullough has acquired just enough Spanish grammar and vocabulary in preparation for his trip to Mexico to be killed in its capital city.<\/p>\n
\u201cDuolingo has been really helpful with teaching me the basics, you know, hola, c\u00f3mo est\u00e1, things like that,\u201d said McCullough, who will come within an inch of being shot when he tries to ask a cartel member for directions to the nearest convenience store, but insults his sister instead.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd I\u2019ll keep on doing lessons during the trip!\u201d<\/p>\n
While McCullough admits he\u2019s far from fluent, sources close to him report that he has honed his Spanish enough in the weeks preceding his vacation to hold friendly conversations with strangers, one of which will lead to a misunderstanding that he will not survive.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s nice to be able to travel confidently and independently,\u201d said McCullough, whose belief that the word \u2018embarazada\u2019 means embarrassed rather than pregnant will get his nose broken as he tries to make small talk at a bar.<\/p>\n
McCullough says that he eventually plans to learn Spanish more thoroughly, although his current knowledge is more than what he needs to cry for \u2018ayudar\u2019 as he lies bleeding on the street in the Santa Fe district.<\/p>\n
By press time, Henry\u2019s friend Michael had learned just enough French to strike out with every single woman in Paris.<\/p>\n
