people say the weirdest shit to me sometimes. today might just take the cake. first conversation:
G: where are you from?
Me: i was born in lancaster county, but i live here now.
G: no, where are you from? like what country.
Me: im american
G: really? you dont look all white. arent you mixed or something?
Me (to myself):wtf??????
Me (out loud): mixed with what?
G: i dont know, thats why im asking

conclusion: btw not all americans are white... one would think that in such a diverse city that would be obvious... and according to the government cencus guidelines, i'm officially white. that good enough for ya?

second conversation:
Me: can you reach that box for me? I'm too short.
N:(insert witty comment about how its convenient to be tall)
Me: that's nice
N: are you short because your legs didnt grow?
Me (out loud): do i look disproportionate or something?
Me (to myself):wtf?????
N: No, not really.
Me: then i guess thats not why im short

conclusion: i havent grown an inch since i was twelve. i started smoking pot when i was twelve. kids, dont do it. it stunts your growth.

third conversation:
G:sorry, we didnt invite you cause we figured you didnt drink.
Me: no, i drink a lot
G (to N): doesnt she look like the kind of goody goody who never drinks?
N: yeah who stays home and studies all the time
G: and she'll be married before she's 25
N: well i dont know about her getting married.
Me (to myself):wtf?????
Me (out loud): (simply exits the conversation)

conclusion: i dont even know where to start with this one. here my friends are trying to hint to me that im an alcoholic (geez, i only drink so much because i take less pills. i think ive covered this before. I have an addictive personality, whats your point?) yet i give the impression, apparently, that i dont drink. i quit school, again, because i... hate school, i guess... and apparently i give the impression that i study all the time.

im not even going to touch the getting married comment.
