Story time...

Once upon a time there was a alien superman powered vampire named Vo-El, who was out braving the cold walking her trusty sidetick Nem-El! While they were out in the below 0 temperatures, which of course would do nothing for Vo-El as she is o so powerful and no blooded.. but anyways they were out enjoying the glory it is to just walk around and mind ones own business when a car comes up behind them and a woman lowers her electric powered window and asks rather loudly in swedish if one knows where the station is.. to which Vo-El was only able to reply.. "Ok.. I don't speak swedish but..." before...
*VroooooooooooooOOOM*
off she goes with so much power that it felt like she thought that Vo-El was going to reach into the car and murder her with the english language!!
Vo-El simply gave her the big finger and said "fuck you then" and continued on the glorious walk with Nem-El.

For the record Vo-El was in fact going to give the lady directions of 'if you turn around and follow this road then you will come across the station'.. but no the lady just had to freak out.. but really was there a need to put your foot hard to the floor and speed off like Vo-El was some kind of crazed freak? It really makes you wonder what this world is coming to when people act like that.

Vo-El actually got stopped again by someone wanting to ask for directions and it went a little something like this...
Dude in car - "Excuse me" but in swedish.
Vo-El - "ok I can't reply in swedish but I might still be able to help" (as you see Vo-El thought at least this way if they still wanted to ask the question in swedish that would be ok and it is informing them that english is what Vo-El speaks)
Dude in car - "no. it is ok" and off he drove.

I guess there just is no helping some people.. maybe Vo-El should just stick to "Sorry I'm not from here" coz it would sure get the same reactions.
Humans are complex creatures.
