three exchanges I have with everyone I meet in Montreal

1: person - Where are you from?
     me - Albany.
     person - Oh... your bus station really sucks/is gross/is scary.
     me - Thank you.

2: person - How long have you been with your boyfriend?
     me - Six and a half years.
     person - Wow! Why aren't you married yet?
     me - I'm only 24. (also, none of your business)

3: person - You don't speak French? Not even a little?
     me - Nope. I tried but it didn't stick.
    person - huh...
    me - I'm American.
    person - Oh, OK then.
