New patient that I had never met before.
"You have an odd accent!"
"I'm Australian."
"Oh. I'm so very, very sorry!"
The only folks that I can think of that would say that are Kiwis.
I find an Aussie accent on a woman to be incredibly attractive.
I think French is a close second.
Disappointing theists since 1968!

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
