I’d have to say being a New Jersey fast talker.
I was born in Jersey and lived there until I was 15. I don’t look like Carmela Soprano or a blinged out housewife, no leopard print leggings or teased shellacked hair … but I did retain a bit of New Jersey twang in my speech (think dawg and cawfee) and I’m most definitely a fast talker.
Jersey people have places to go and people to dump in the Meadowlands swamp, we don’t like wasting time with slow conversation .

How about you?
What stereotype do you embody.

I suppose inner city urban at times but I don’t think I truly embody a stereotype

I have a very stereotypical “traditional female” response to mice – both living and dead, anywhere in my house (which fortunately doesn’t happen often and hasn’t happened in a long time): up on a chair screaming until the husband comes to my rescue. And I can’t – WON’T – touch a dead mouse to dispose of it. Totally eyeroll-inducing, I know, but it’s who I am.
I’m also accused of being a fast talker, by the way, but my accent is 100% Midwestern.

My late MIL used to do that. Chair, couch, table… whatever was closest. She let out a shriek that would pierce your eardrums.
A fast talking midwesterner? That seems like an oxymoron…

Sometimes I’m an oxymore. Other times I’m just a moron.

See how I wrote “oxymore” instead of “oxymoron”? That was me being a moron.

I love the road signs that help me speak your language lol 😂! At one time I tried to avoid being a stereotypical “blonde”. Ugh 😑 I’m happy that my red roots, auburn, a just slight gray are poking through now. When I was in the school system I was told that I was not stereotypical (still wearing the same flannel and tennis shoes and boots). I’m probably more stereotypical of an outdoor girl. Lol

I’m not sure if there is a stereotype of a museum historian, but I’ve been told several times that I “look just like one”. Long hair, worn up. Glasses (when I wear them), and almost 100% of the time with a skirt or dress down to my ankles. Add to that a brain that lives and breathes history and … you’ve got yourself an historian.

Stereotypical is an awful large multisyllabic word before coffee. Mom says I have to finish my coffee before I come out and play. No really. And I have to clean my room first too !

Stereotypical Latina, piss me off and I’m thinking of taking off my earrings, heels and other jewelry to kick some ass. And constantly comparing New Mexican food to Mexican food and telling my coworkers that NM food is bland as hell. I’m sure they are tired of me telling them this, but as a Latina/Hispanic it’s my duty to point this out 😆.

I cannot think of one, unless there is a stereotypical half-Indigenous, half-white person who belongs to neither side and hates stereogypes on both sides because steteotypes only exist in the mindsnof lazy people, and Republicans/Conservatives.
