Random Person: So, where are you from?
Me: Lancashire, up North
Random Person: So are you like a farmer or something?

Just because I'm from NW England does NOT mean I'm a farmer

People like to jump straight to an assumption that I'm Polish based on my accent. After that one fails, their next guess is Russian. Again, fail. JUST DON'T FKING GUESS! ASK!

I'm kind of light-skin brown, but I'm not South Asian (ie I'm not Indian/Pakistani etc), I'm Middle Eastern.

I've had someone request a bhangra dance when Punjabi MC came on in the club. I've also had people asking me to teach them to wrap turbans, teach them urdu and teach them how to make parathas.

An old housemate of mine came into the kitchen when I had finished cooking:

"Mmmm smells good!! Did you just make a curry"
"No it was fried eggs and toast"
"Oh, smells like curry"

I have plenty more but those are just a few to start things off.

Anyone else want to contribute? :colone:

I'm Sudanese (North East African) and I've had a few Somalians call me a liar when I tell them I'm not Somalian :colonhash:

a man once tried to test me by asking me questions in Arabic (the native language of Sudan) to see if I was really what I said I was. I'm used to being mistaken for a Somalian but for someone to say I'm lying about my ethnicity that's a whole other level!
