There's an episode of Dexter's Lab called The Big Cheese in which Dexter is trying to learn french for school. Using the age-old trick of learning by osmosis, Dexter creates a record (an LP, actually) that plays his vocabulary aloud while he sleeps.

Fortunately, that phrase seems to be the answer to every question he is asked, and eventually leads him to superstardom.
I feel kind of like that this morning. Although, I have yet to speak to anyone in exclusively terms of HTML tags, I think I probably could.
