Well, yes. I mean, really, enough... I've been living abroad for say, nearly 6 years and I always get this question when I reveal my nationality.

-"You don't look like Turkish?"

I do look Turkish. I do bloody look like a Turkish man who has an Australian Hat (and most of you think it is a cowboy hat you ignorants) on top of his head and who speaks fluent English. If you have not left your village except visiting closed-system all-included hotels, is this my problem?

I am talking to you Dutch (If you want you can replace it with French, German, Egyptian, etc.)!

Actually we are so fed up with the expression we see on people's faces, we have just begun to have fun with this situation. Me and Diadra wrote 10 answers to "But, you don't look like Turkish?" question.

+ Oh, you don't look like Turkish?

Answers:

1. I look like Turkish.. (slight hand movement and mind-trick)
2. Thanks, and you totally look German! (priceless..)
3. Can you paint me the picture of Turkish Abidin? (a Totally Turkish joke)
4. While you were living in the caves, they were building Hagia Sophia in my city.
5. Who does?
6. Why so disappointed? Xenophobic, are we?
7. Aww, look at that face. You're trying so hard to conceal your disappointment, that's so sweet. (:
8. Well I think you could work on that look on your face. You know, for the next time you meet someone Turkish. For being less rude, I mean.
9. Wow, did you know that having a less obvious expression of disappointment on face makes you look much younger?
10. Oh, you don't either.
