I pirate tv shows and movies. They don't have embedded subtitles for when someone starts speaking another language anymore. If I don't turn on subtitles I may be watching something and suddenly realize, "These mofos have been speaking Mexican for the last three minutes!"
What I really hate is when the show does have embedded subtitles, but then the optional subtitles display over the top of them with "speaking Mexican"
