    Accents. Ugh. I've had SO many guys say I sound European or something, and I can't figure why. I sound American, no denying it. My accent is a little weird I guess, after moving around so much and picking up little bits from so many places, but it's still very much an American accent. I have had guys actually ARGUE with me, telling me I'm from "overseas" or something. One dude even argued vehemently, ANGRILY. I was like, uh yeah dude, I think I know where I was born, I've got my US birth certificate and passport, but you can think whatever you want. Had to just leave that one. Weirdo.

    I just use it as a little convo topic, make some goofy little joke about it and lead on to the subject of wannadance. LOL! Everything leads to the dance

    I hope this isn't a thread highjack, but you reminded me of this story I've been dying to tell Bridgette.

    I refuse to tell people where I'm from if they pick up I have an accent. Normally I get Irish or English but I digress. These guys kept pestering me, "Where are you from? Where?!" for hours.

    Finally I said, "Look, I don't tell people where I'm from because I had rocks thrown at me last time I did!! OKAY?!"

    To which one guy goes, "I know I know I know!!! You're from MUSLIM!!"

    I would just look at the guy for a sec, then look down to my thong and say, OMG you're right it is real!!! (all the time looking at your bikini line and playing it up like her was talking about your pubic hair, lol!)

    OMG, Morri, I knew you were from Muslim!

    And Bridgette, your accent does sound foreign. It's really distinctive and I couldn't place where you were from either.

    I get that shit all the time with my red hair. It's elbow-length and really thick, and I constantly get asked if it's hair extensions or a weave.

    My favorite (regarding the color) "Are you Irish??"

    When I wear my glasses, they also ask if they're a prop all the time. I usually respond by taking them off and putting them right on the customer's head, to which the reaction is always the same "Wow.. (shakes head) you were right!"

    Foreign?? Are you serious??? Cuz I hear myself talk everyday and I don't think I sound the least bit foreign

    I just want to pop in and say EVERYONE has an accent... and no accent is more 'normal' than any other.
