On the line with computer tech support with a guy, who if he isn't American, speaks perfect non-accented English:
Him: "City?"
Me: "Washington, D.C."
Him: "So the state is Washtington?"
Me: "No."
Him: "What is it then?"
Me: "I guess it's the District of Columbia."
Him: "So you're in Canada then?"
Me: "No..."
He then put me on hold for like five minutes while he figured it out.

It would not shock me if an American did not know that.

But that's the best! It's a many-hour high as you grind the sorry computer into the dust it so richly deserves.
