"This Doesn't Believe Myself" ~Marcus

Questions and Comments Directed Towards Me:

Do you buy your chicken live?

Are there black people in the US?

You’re eating bread without tea?

Do you know Justin Bieber?

How many children do you have?

Why are you not married?

Would your parents accept you went home with a Mozambican husband? (purely hypothetical)

What do I have to do to marry you?

Do you have a Mozambican boyfriend? 
“No.” 
Oh, are you racist?


In America, do you unplug your fridge in the winter?

Are you a man or a woman?

You’re getting pretty - you’re growing a bigger butt!

Why do you have pimples all over your face?

Mukunha, mukunha! (white person, white person!) 



Concepts that are somewhat difficult to explain, no matter how interested and curious the question-asker:

Building a snowman
Lakes freeze and you can walk on top of them
Why I believe that people landed on the moon
Not everyone in the US is rich
The US is one country
America is many countries
Supermarkets – they sell food even when it’s out of season
Jack-o-lanterns
Halloween
