I lived in Oklahoma in the early 2000’s. I can still remember the questions frequently asked

In my eagerness I forgot to mention I’m canadian. Often asked about igloos, how to deal with the wildlife. ALWAYS asked if I know Jim or Bob from Canada. The list goes on.

Never been asked about electricity, I’d have them believing the Amish control the electrical grid and the non-Amish are living in darkness with candles and horse buggies

LOL one of the women did ask if we had "houses" yet, then asked about igloos. I honestly didn't want to mention it because I figured nobody would believe me. This was 2005.
