Yeah, they call me this way.
Once someone told me: "You are not from here, you."
Me: "No, I'm not. You can hear it, can't you?"
- "It's not just about the accent, I can see it [the behaviour] as well." Funny people.

They make no difference not because there is none, but because they are, I think, enable to do so. Beyond Avignoun or Auranjo, they are a bit lost; it is already the "nord". The same way they call North Eastern French (those linguistically Romance) "
casques à pointe" (the famous WWI German helmet). They have no clear notions of others' identity. Many never move anyway so anything different to them is terra incognita.
