'Do you celebrate New Years in the United Kingdom'
minedewe my neighbours son was asking me questions about Paris earlier this year and wanted to know what the leaning tower of Pisa was like. He gave me a very glazed expression when I explained that the Leaning Tower of Pisa was in Pisa in Italy and did he mean the Eiffel Tower

"Are you German?"
Honestly.
Really.
Just how universally retarded to you have to be to ask someone who sounds as English as anything, if they are - German?
So I laid my jackboot into his groin and marched off singing Horst Wessel. *Amerikanische Schweinhund! Ach!*

Its all a surreal blur. But prob the worst one was:

"Oh! You're ENGLISH! Tell me, what do you think of the Queen? Oh no, wait. She's Canadian, isn't she."
I was once asked if I knew Princess Diana and replied, "Of course I know her. We all do. England's a small place. She sometimes comes round to my house for tea on a Friday." Worse thing I could have done, because they believed me and told everyone else in the workplace, who also believed me, so then I had to explain that I was only joking
