When I tell Swiss people that I am from South Africa some typical reactions are: "but don't Africans speak French?", and / or: "but you're not black!?"

what is this show ? i like it xxxx

25

King of the Hill.

It ran for 13 seasons essentially in North American. Essentially about the generic amercian family and neighborhood in Texas.

It's very slow to get into, but once you see how deep the characters are developed and the commentary on 'life in america', the show is absolutely brilliant.

This kind of stuff happens ALL the time, everywhere. You can't get upset about it or you'll just be miserable! lol.

When I tell people I'm Portuguese they will ask either if I speak Spanish or Brazilian! Hello!? I do speak Spanish but not because I'm from Portugal!

Of course we all know the "do you/they speak Swiss" one.

My Chinese friend is constantly told by people how much they like sushi. She just tells them that she does to, what her favorite restaurants are, etc.

And a Austria friend of mine often got "I didn't know they spoke German in Australia."

I think people are just trying to be friendly. They don't KNOW that they don't know what they are talking about.

English guy at my stall last year, asked if I had any Danish Blue...." er no, I only sell British cheese".
