So it was your face that was responsible for launching all those ships.

Yes and yours started the aggro in Chapeltown

It's my curse.

I was like Jim Morrison...too beautiful to be taken seriously...

Poppy girl, but you are British, right? OMG! I though British people have no language barrier or accent issues here in the US.

Okay, English is my second language and I learned British English. So when I came here and spelled a Z, I always said ZED. Well they did not understand me. I was told it is incorrect. Then of course I still use letter s in words (e.g. realise, recognise) Once I told my friend, I just finished hoovering. She stared at me and said that Hoover is a brand. I said well when I lived in London for a year, I used to hoover She replied, lady we vacuum here. It was hilarious

Come to think of it, about 10 years ago I worked with this guy who was from somewhere in Norwich. We lived in staff accomodation at a hotel. One day, I had this peel off face mask on when he knocked on my door. I started peeling it off, and by the look of pure horror on his face, could see he thought it was my skin. Told him that all black people's skin would peel off about once every three months. Never did tell him any different!

Don't hate me 'cuz I'm beautiful.

Hi folks, just had to add mine to the growing list. When I came over to visit my now husband for the first time we went to his firms Christmas dinner. He warned me that at some point in the evening someone would ask me a dumb question. Turned out to be from the police detective sitting at our table. First question "Do you know Mr. Bean" to which I smiled and assured him I did and second question "Do you have cows in England". Same response from me with a look of total disbelief from my OH.

I met my USC husband's company director at a dinner, and he asked me why British people don't like Americans.

I said because they are "loud, obnoxious, overly polite, superficial, fake, insular, too religious, ignorant, stupid and uneducated."

He replied that I must have been very hard up for a husband!

You're black? I've been staring at your avatar for a number of minutes and I still can't see it... I'll have to keep looking.

Did I miss it?

I'm actually mixed race, my father black Jamaican, mother white English

I saw this in Ross last night...had to take a picture for y'all....
