Funny, but really disturbing that some people are that ignorant.

Funny, but really disturbing that some people are that ignorant. I have gotten this question so many times. It’s so rude that they don’t even think it’s rude. A good comeback is what she did, keep asking where his family is from. If you really want to know, ask what ethnicity he/she is. I’m sure most people are happy to tell you rather than you keep asking them where are they from. So frustrating! |

My first thought when seeing the title before opening, “Will the peas think I’m self-centered if I mention the state after the country?” 🤔

That’s hilarious but also disturbingly sad because so many people are so freaking ignorant.

I think I have shared this here before but it is worth repeating.
I moved to America as a child with an American father and an Aussie mum.
I get to Texas after a few years living in US and one of the first things I am told is that I speak really good English for a foreigner and ask me how long did it take me to learn English??!!!
