Warning: This Post is about Tampons (Not People who are from Tampa)

People who don't think that people who move to this country from other countries need to learn to speak the language have obviously never needed help finding tampons in an Indian deli.

"Where are the, uh, (whispers) tampons?"

(Speaking with a thick Indian accent) "What? The bacon?"

"No. (A little louder) The tampons.

"The condoms?"

"No! The TAMPONS!" (Guy in line behind you looks disgusted)

(Looking like you just tried to order a cheeseburger from the Dalai Lama) "Over there."

"Thanks." (Buy the tampons, leave the store)

(No longer speaking in an Indian accent) "Actually, I speak perfect English. I just wanted to mess with her."
