Unimpressed

Usually when I get to know new people I would like to learn a few things about them. Like their name, what are they studying, and so forth and so and. Not least I want to learn where they are from! So when I meet bright people that answer back: 'Oh, I am from the States!' and nothing else, I am left seriously unimpressed with their intelligence. That you are from the 'States' is quite obvious by the very American accent you have, it will give you away every time you open your mouth!!! But which freaking one are you from, there are 50 States and I am not going to just randomly decide which one you are from. If I would I would either choose Texas or Florida, neither which are a compliment. When I am asked where I am from I usually don't respond 'Europe!'. Why not be really clear and just answer; 'I am from the P-L-A-N-E-T EARTH!' and speak real slow in case my alien intelligence is slow to catch up.
