my roommate, the beauty queen...

here is an excerpt from an actual conversation i had yesterday with one of my lovely roommates:

her: so if you could be from any country in the world, where would you be from?
me: south africa
her: (rolling her eyes) no, no, i said what country
me: south africa
her: that's a region. i meant what country in that area...
me: again, south africa, you know, where the next summer olympics are going to be held? apartheid, cape town, johannesburg, amazing surf, is any of this ringing a bell?
her: wait, that's a country?

i won't give you the pleasure of divulging which roommate i had this glorious conversation with, but needless to say that we all had a good laugh over it.
