Dumb Blond

Today at work, this guy came in and said, "Are you the new owner here? Everything is different."

My answer: "American."

He looked at me quizzically, and then I said, "Did I misunderstand you?"

And he said, "I think so."

I had heard, "Are you not from here? What is your accent?"

This was very embarassing, but that's ok. He bought a couple hundred euros worth of books from me and stayed afterwards and chatted me up, something that pretty much never happens to me at my job anymore (clientele is just not the type). I decided that he likes his women stupid.
