Oh, man! I'm almost 27 and I still didn't figure out how exactly I'm supposed to answer "Where are you from?"

@deadgerbil Saudi Arabia, but if I answer with that, they're going to deny me pork and I'm already done with people denying me pork just because I look Muslim

@SW-User they won't accept any clarification afterwards? They just automatically cross out pork or can you explain that you aren't Muslim?

@deadgerbil Usually when I'm meeting someone new and they ask this, they expect a short answer. When I try to provide an elaborate answer they usually don't understand and assume things in bad faith, such as that I'm not being straight forward or whatever
