8 Things You Don’t Ask People Touring Charlottesville

Dont ask in charlottesville

I got inspired by this article I read about the Chinese posters that are describing the 8 things to not ask Olympic tourists.

The 8 Don’t Asks:

  1. Don’t ask about income or expenses,
  2. don’t ask about age,
  3. don’t ask about love life or marriage,
  4. don’t ask about health,
  5. don’t ask about someone’s home or address,
  6. don’t ask about personal experience,
  7. don’t ask about religious beliefs or political views,
  8. don’t ask what someone does.

Basically, they’ve told people to not make meaningful relationships with people.

What are the 8 things you don’t ask people visiting Charlottesville?  I’ll start…

  1. Don’t you hate DMB?
  2. Did you know that TJ had sexual relations with a slave?
  3. Did you know that no service workers can afford to live in Charlottesville?
  4. ________________________  your turn!

    I’m glad service workers can’t afford to live here. Charlottesville would be wonderful if no one making under $50,000/yr could afford to live here.

    Oh, please do tell me how they do it back home?

    Would you like directions to the Olive Garden/Hooters?

    Would you like directions to the city republican headquarters?

    Questions one must always answer no: do I know anyone in admissions @ UVa / in DMB?

    Answers you never give to people visiting CVille:

    -You know, I’ve always wondered what those big ‘V’s in the streets are too!

    -No, I don’t know who the lady silhouettes are on the yellow and blue signs.
