Note: very long, GIF-peppered rant in progress.
Over and over and over, I get asked the same question in various forms as I'm working as a cashier in retail.
"Where'd you get the cute accent?"
"So where are you from?"
"Are you British?"
Over and over and over, my answer is also pretty much the same. I'm an American girl, and I've never been out of the U.S. I've lived all my life in the same Southwest, same state, same county, same town. I've even lived in the same house for over 15 years.
But NOBODY believes me.
