An Interesting Conversation

[freedomreins]

I was working alone at the store today. A woman was buying some stuff, and as I rang her up on the till, she asked me if I was heading back to school, etc, etc. This is a pretty common conversation with customers as I suppose I must look like a student? Anyway, she asked me where I was studying and I told her that I was going to university in

Oh god, I've answered similar questions soooo many times. It's boggling how stupid the world is.

No kidding eh? I know people make fun of the States for not being aware of what's going on outside its borders, but generally us Canucks have a bit of a better reputation! This woman totally ruined that! lol

[righteous_twist]

Are you sure she was Canadian? LOL

[freedomreins]

Yeah, lol, she's friends with the store's owner, so I suspect she is ;)

Wow. That's... mind-boggling.

Zed Oh Em Gee. These are the ppl, sadly, that the rest of the world associates with being American. They should have to pass some sort of IQ test before being allowed to interact with foreigners thus limiting the damage they can do to ppl's impressions!

I know, it's awful isn't it?

They've just finished filming the latest series. I don't know when the new series is going to be shown though.

Soon, I hope! I just googled it but couldn't find out anything.

In fairness, in my part of England it sure feels like Nepalese is the more predominant language!

But strange woman! I would have been all "no, they talk French!"
