A screenshot of texts between my partner and me. 8:43 a.m. [Me] I'm working on a story that focuses on how people act when they realize I'm from the south 8:45 a.m. [Partner] Oh yeah? Lol that should be interesting lol 8:45 a.m. [Me] Right π nothing you haven't heard before, I'm sure. 8:46 p.m. [Partner] Oh I get it lol. Say one thing and the response is always "Your not from around here are you?" π€£ 8:46 p.m. [Me] That's literally the title πππ 8:47 p.m. [Partner] π€£ 8:47 p.m. [Me] *an image of my computer screen with my document open* Not from Around Here TK. Premise: Things people outside of LA have said to me when they discover I'm from LA. βIt starts from the moment I speak, which is curious considering I spent over a decade misguidedly dropping my accent so people would stop conflating my intelligence with stereotypes of *illiterate* Southerners *The word illiterate was added after this image was sent to my partner.
