Dumb questions people ask me

 

 

This are questions and statements people make that are just dumb!

 

• When they heard me speaking Spanish, people have asked me where I learned how to speak Mexican?
  
  
• When I say I come from South America, some say “what part of the south, Alabama, Mississippi?”     

   

• Can you help me find a good gardener?    

   

• People asked me what village do I come from and they cannot believe that there are cities, buildings, highways, subway system, or stock exchange where I come from.

   

   

• Someone asked “can you tell me how to spot an illegal immigrant?”    
        

   

• Most people assume that Latin America is just Mexico. Hello, there are 20 countries and they are not jungle, with snaked and natives. There are very distict cultures as well.  
        

   

• I was asked if my south American country was next to Spain…since I spoke Spanish.
  When I explained that South America and Spain where separated by the Atlantic, this person did not believe the Atlantic ocean was that big of a distance!?!?!    

   

•  Someone wondered why the US was the only country in the world that was divided into states; she thought the other countries were not divided at all.    

   

• Since you come from Latin American what language do you speak, Latin?
