Out here, you're allowed to be from California, New York, or Boston. Everywhere else requires some explanation. Unless you're from the South. In which case, they also want you to apologize.
How many times has this happened to you:
RANDOM GIRL: Where are you from?
ME: Louisiana.
RG: (accusing) You don't have an accent.
Oh, "Designing Women"! What hath you wrought?!

Or the alternative:
"You don't sound like you're from Louisiana."
Which really means:
"You don't sound like Delta Burke."
