You are thought so little of, in someone’s mind they picture you to be very tiny and worthless POS, you may be called a “small place” if you mention that Japan is a small place because someone in your theatre class learned Japanese from overdosing on Anime, therefor you say who would want to learn Japanese because Japan is such a small place.
Me- “Who would want to learn Japanese because Japan is such a small place...”
Anime addict- “You’re a small place!”
