    Todd: OK, Matt, we're going to talk about adjectives. What is strong?

    Matt: Austrian coffee.

    Todd: Yeah, Austrian coffee is strong. Can you get Austrian coffee in Japan?

    Matt: Well, I'm not sure. They serve Viennese coffee. Which is supposed to be from Vienna, but when you go to Vienna, the coffee there is just small strong coffees. Viennese coffee in Japan has like cream on top and things like that, so it's like a new take on Austrian coffee.

    Todd: Wow, that's bizarre. OK, what is weak?

    Matt: What is weak? English coffee, I suppose. The English aren't really very good at making coffee compared to other people, other countries in Europe, so yeah, English coffee is generally weak.

    Todd: OK, well it's the same in America, so. Alright, what is heavy?

    Matt: Metal.

    Todd: Metal!

    Matt: Yeah, as in the music.

    Todd: Oh, OK. Do you listen to heavy metal music?

    Matt: I used to. I used to be in a rock band when I was at college, and it was kind of punk, heavy metal, but I used to listen to a lot, not so much anymore.

    Todd: Did you play?

    Matt: I was the singer.
