People who are from the islands always want to know what island I'm from ("what island you from"?). They are always surprised when I tell them that I'm not from the islands. It's pretty funny b/c I've never had a non-islander stop me, only islanders themselves.
I have had a few people in random stores (e.g., Target) ask me if I was the woman who was an attorney on Girlfriends. I still don't know who they are talking about since I've only seen the show about 5 times (although I think it's a great show, I just don't watch T.V.).
People always say that I look younger than I am.
Older people often say that I'm sweet.

I always hear "What nationality are you? I thought you were Dominican."
People also think I'm younger than I am when they see me.

FeeFee and mulattogyrl, I'm sure so many women out there feel so sorry for you. 
Whenever I tell people that I was born in Russia, they always ask me why I don't have an accent.

Ditto and ditto. EVERYONE thinks I'm Dominican and EVERYONE thinks I'm like 16 unless I'm with a group of other people my age. Lovehaiku, I feel you on the grade thing! They also ask if I have my driver's lisence yet. I know, I know, I'll appreciate it when I'm 50, 'Black don't crack' and all that.

[QUOTE=PerfectVerse06]What are some things that people say about you or ask you a lot?[QUOTE]
Something people ask me alot:
"Ummm hi..ummm...my name is _________ and I am ummm you know, interested in AKA...are y'all having a line soon?" 
People usually think I'm younger, depending on how I'm dressed. They say I don't look old enough to be my daugher's mother.
People say I look mean (because I don't go around smiling all of the time).
If I'm out of state people ask the following questions when they find out I'm from Florida:
Do you live on the beach?
Have you ever seen an alligator?
Have you ever been in a hurricane?

People tell me that I look mean all the time too, lol. Oh well.
Also, my family and friends of the family ALWAYS tell me "You are a spittin' image of your Aunt Beola" who I never got to meet because she was murdered before I was born.

I thought of some...
"I saaaaw you rollin' your eyes at me HEFFA!" I guess this would be a variation of "you look mean".
When I see old friends, "Have you graduated, YET?" Come on, five years in undergrad isn't THAT long!
"Oh my, you have a deep voice! Do you sing?" It's not that deep, I don't sound like a man or anything.
"You have to be 21 to do _____" Yes, I do look 16, don't be jealous!
"Girl, is you mixed wit Indian?" No comment.
"Can I have some of your _____?" NO! It's MINE! Get your your own damn _____! Yes, I'm spoiled like that. Sharing sucks! Don't be hating because I only gave you only one french fry or nacho chip. That's what some peeps get for gambling up all of their money.
"You are soooooo cheap!" No, it's just that I don't have that much money. Also, I'm sorry, but i'm above paying (extra) for certain stuff.
