Kev's Adventures living in and traveling around Australia
I'm a native New Yorker, living in Sydney, with manners taught in Texas (the accent only comes out when I've had a little bit to drink). I can say "I like ice cream" in several languages, but little else (although I'm learning "where is the Embassy" is also a good one to know.) I have a serious weakness for chocolate-chip cookies.
I may have spurred an HR issue today over a misunderstanding.
The woman I share my office with, who I’ve become good friends with, casually leaned over to me and asked, “do you have a rubber?”
I turned beat red – I didn’t know she was asking for an eraser!

that is freaking hilarious
Haha! That happened in London. Rob would ask us if we'd seen his rubber. We definitely gave him a strange look.
what you should have said was, "What you mean for the tip of my pencil?"
