The Most Awkward Conversation Ever

While Craig and I were waiting for our taxi, a woman walks up to me and asks...


"Are you Chinese or Korean?"

"No. I'm American."

"Are you Korean?"

"No. I'm actually Filipino but I was born in America. I'm from California."

"I have a friend who is Korean."

"Uh-huh."

"I've always wanted to go to Korea."

"Uh-huh."

"Well, good luck."

"You too."

WTF?!?!? I should have said, "If you give me 20 quid, I can be Korean. I can be ANYTHING you want!"
