"Top 10 signs you've gone native in Spain."

"You've gone all touchy-feely...."
You've started yelling at waiters....

You've lost all political correctness....

You've stopped being so polite. Countless blank stares have made you realize that being excessively apologetic or thankful doesn't get you places in Spain. So no more "muchas gracias" (thank you very much) or "lo siento" (sorry) unless you really, really mean it.....

YOU TACKLE SPANISH BUREAUCRACY WITH CONFIDENCE: NIE✓, empadronamiento✓ healthcare card✓. You're a pro now, a fearless form-filler who stares right into the eye of the grumpy civil servant 'helping you out'.

They forgot "you're unemployed and you can't find work."

What? There's no "I curse El Caudillo at every opportunity"?

They don't say "sorry" unless they mean it? Another reason to love the spanish.
