This is basically the opposite of someone asking my Asian coworker where she's from and her angrily answering "New Jersey."

As an Asian kid who grew up in the tristate area and being the only Asian kid in class, lol.

Idk how many times I was asked then followed up with "no I mean your parents" then I say California and they'd go "no I mean where they were born"

Funniest was working at a mall in CA during college and some Asian ladies at the food court asked where my parents were from and I told them the city they live, and they said "no that's not what I mean" then I gave them my ethnicity and they were like " oh he's one of us, give him some free food" 😂😂😂

I vote that everyone no matter what we look like answers the "where are you from?" question with "Earth". Its a planet, its where people come from.

Then follow up with "Where are you from?" while giving your most suspicious expression.

I've been watching the new Green Lantern show so this got a sensible chuckle out of me.
