Anyhow, I went out to dinner with two people I had met at the hostel. One guy was probably around my age then from Nairobi and the other was a man from England...I'd say late 50s to early 60s. I was bored out of my mind. The younger guy didn't speak much while the old man asked me the most ridiculous questions. He even insulted me by saying that I can't be from Canada because I am Chinese. Then no joke, he asked me something that I'd never forget. We were having a conversation (and I use this word loosely because I did more eye-rolling than talk) comparing Canada and England. At one point, he looked at me with a straight face and asked, "Are women allowed to drive in Canada?"
I have never felt like punching anyone in the face, let alone an old man. But at that point, I really could have.
I think the guy was trying to be funny :D i couldn't stop laughing after reading this lol
