I bet. Best anomaly 🙌 .

“What high school did you go to?”

Such a strange custom to immediately gauge a person’s socio economic background

It’s weird because even though I was born and raised in St. Louis, I never got into that question. Then someone asks me that and I’m like, “oh yeah.”

😭 it’s crazy how it’s really just an stl thing too

High schools and Provel cheese.

When first doing business there, I answered University of Texas and got a side eye response. I was like, why would you care about what high school I went to until I saw the interaction play out every single time in introductions. So interesting…

it’s so annoying

My wife is from just across the river in Illinois, and even she doesn’t get it. 🤷🏻

very much, someone literally just asked me a few minutes ago too.

Same, but make it Germany.

“no, but where r u REALLY from” 😭

When I say which country I'm from usually half of the people have no idea where that is... 😄

Often people make a face like "oh, do you guys have like electricity and stuff?"
