Subway attendant: "You're paying in coins. That's fantastic. That's how it's done."

Street vendor in La Boca: "Wait, are you Argentine?"
Me: "No."
SV: "But you speak like an Argentine."
Me: "I've been here a while."
SV: "So you know how to cuss someone out then?"
Me: "Yeah, I guess."
SV: "Oh, well then you're practically Argentine."
