I was picking up some fish and chips last night for dinner (yes, I'm really blending in here), at a place near my house. Clearly ordering in my pure, American accent, the guy at the counter who was from somewhere in Europe asked if I was Polish.
Yes, he and his assistant both said something to the effect of "You're from Poland, aren't you?"
Uh...no.
I immediately was racking my brain. Are Polish women ugly? It may have been an innocent comment, but honestly. If you think I'm Polish even after hearing me speak, something's up.
Do I have a huge nose? Do Polish women have huge noses? Ugh. I knew it. I have a huge nose. Or maybe a broad face? Double chins? Oh man. I have a double chin and big nose.
Searching for "famous Polish women" to figure out what it is, I came across Marie Curie. Do I look like her? :(
you guys are like twins! (it's the extremely bushy eyebrows.)
