Messing with people's headsTheophilous Thunderwulf says: What have you done to fuck with people? Was it a long, carefully planned piece of psychological warfare, or do you favour quick, off-the-cuff comments that confuse the terminally gullible? Have you been dicked with, and only realised many years later? Are you being dicked right now? Tell us everything.

Upon marrying a yank.....I was privvy to the following statements/questions....... and had to respond...
1. New wife's father, during first meeting with him:
"Do Yall have Pitzurh ova thayur?"
(internally) "Yes we're nearly 5000 miles closer to Italy"
(audibly) "Why yes, I guess so, although possibly not the same as you have over here"
(We ordered Papa John's)
2. New Wife's estranged Mother (via phone)
"Are yurrr folks rich?"
(audibly) "Not rich, not wealthy or well off, just at retirement age, they own their own house, enjoy a couple of holidays a year. I think i'd like to say that they have a rich and happy life"
(her) "Well good, cos she wouldn't know how to act around rich people"
3. Her mother to her
"You know, you're gonna have to learn a whole nother language over there"
Given that i'd just been speaking to her in English... I mean... ok... (oh, im English, from England, for the record)
Some Americans thing England is in London.
"Do yall know the Queen/Queen Mother"
"What do you call your dollars over there?"
"Oh you're so polite" (oh dear... no we're not, we're just putting it on for you...)
