When words say where and when you're from. In probably 2002 while working in Los Angeles I went out for dinner with some friends. We were siting at a table in the bar having a drink before going into the restaurant and...→[More:]

there was a table of women next to us having an animated discussion about something and one of the women accidently hit the woman next to her in the head. The woman hit in the head said "I smell burnt toast!" I turned and said "you're from Canada!". She was.

Probably early 1997 at an outdoor market in Atlanta I see produce with the Foodland logo. A woman next to me softly says "Good things grow o o" and I add "In Ontario."

"You from Ontario?"

"Yup."

"Me too."

Today I was walking down a downtown street and coming the other way was a group of women and as they approached one of them said "My lines! My Lines! I can't remember my lines! OooH!" I said "Detroit Zoo!"

"Yes!"
