LOL, I don't know if it's touchy as much as getting really bored with hearing the same questions over and over. People deserve to get made fun of when they ask stupid or overly nosy questions, anyway.

* What is X?

Hello people! It is a Xi!!! And yes, I know that QNX looks like "ONE" - The worst is when OTHER GREEKS don't know what Xi is!!!

* Oh, you went to UGA! Do you know [fill in the blank]?

On a campus of 30,000+ students, it's probably not that likely that I know [fill in the blank] but thanks for asking!

* What are you doing with your English degree? Teaching?

This is the most irritating question on the planet! Any humanities/liberal arts degree-holder is bound to hear this at least once a week. No, I am probably not going to be teaching as a career. I'd rather get a Master's degree in something other than English.

* Where are you from? You have a strange accent.

This ever popular question is asked mostly by people over the phone. I'm from Georgia, but my father lived in different countries as a child (he didn't speak English until he was 15 - though he was always an American). So, I have a collection of accents to play with: Southern, French person speaking English, Irish person speaking English, lots of New York...etc...

* Is Theta Nu Xi a real sorority?

No. I made it up and I'm living a great big lie. I like to sport 'nalia for a non-existent sorority! Sure!

* (From people looking at my line shirt) Poor...siiiiiiis...tahnsay?

Not quite. Try persistence.
