related tale 2: when guys check me out in a parking lot, they *always* make a comment that there's no room for a baby seat in my car. B*TCH I KNOW, that's the point as i am single and childless, lol.

My personal 'fave'.

Because of my my hair...

"So, do you smoke weed?"

White guys get that, too. 'Course, the person asking might assume I'm not that good of a basketball player, but a basketball player nonetheless.

"So... you're half Jamaican"
"Yes"
"Do you smoke a lot of weed?"
"No, the man that makes up the American half of my heritage is a cop. I don't do drugs of ANY kind".
"oh...:o"

I am well-spoken so I must be half white. (I'm not.)
I like extra mayo on everything. (Hate it.)
I grew up in the ghetto. (Norcal Suburbs.)
I frequent the clubs and only listen to rap and hip hop. If that's not true then I must be a PK. (Neither.)

WinniBug 06-17-2009 11:08 PM

I can't dance.
I live at Starbucks.
I'm not racist b/c I "have a black friend."
I don't wear shoes or have all my teeth.
I live in a trailer, have a couch on my front porch and and/or car parts all over the yard.

Some of this is probably more regional than racial, though

But, I really don't like to wear shoes... lol

I speak the Queen's English, therefore I think I'm white.
My parents arent married.
I always live in a project.
My degree is from a 2 year school..which I am still in.
Because I have a child, I must be loud, crass and on welfare, and I have no idea who her daddy is.

(When I was a receptionist, I got a HUGE kick of meeting the people I spoke to daily when they came to the office. Seeing them trying to hide their surprise that I am, in fact, a Black woman is always funny to me.)

$$$rich and stingy with money
crazy, overprotective mothers
large noses (cause air is free)

I can dance to Salsa y Merengue.
I am skilled with a knife.
I speak Spanglish.
I am lazy.
I wear pointy shoes.
I will steal the radio out of your car.

What do you call a Puerto Rican with no arms?
Trustworthy

Do you know how to starve a Puerto Rican to death?
Hide his food stamps under his work shoes.

OMG! When I was working my old job at the mall, I swear I thought I was going to flip out b/c another black girl (with Disney Princess/Jungle Themed acrylics :rolleyes:) insisted I:
A) Had two white parents (even though I do not look white)
B) Had at least one white parent (even though I do not look mixed), then
C) Demanded to know what color my parents were!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I guess I must be adopted or something!)

I speak English! Sorry to disappoint you!

I made an appointment to get my hair braided over the phone. Poor lady was so confused when I showed up, she was expecting a white girl!

When I was little, my English was "so good" people insisted that I was British or from a foreign country. (Even my mother!)

Oh yeah, I grew up in/around Detroit, moved to Plano, TX (a few of you know how Plano is...definitely not Detroit), then came back to the Detroit area for college.

None of the stereotypical black people at my school like me.

RU OX Alum 06-18-2009 05:25 AM

I only have one black friend.

I'm only friends with him to buy weed.

Well, its not so much my race, more of where I grew up. I lived in the North (rhode island), and moved to the south for college. People always call me a liberal yankee, which bugs me.


You're still a New Englander to your bones even if you relocated and joined the GOP.

"And this is good old Boston,
The home of the bean and the cod,
Where the Lowells talk to the Cabots,
And the Cabots talk only to God"

I went to Catholic school and I don't get this...:confused:



I'm going to throw a gender one in, while we're at it...
I'm a girl, so I can't possibly interview Plumbers, or know what I need to order from the plumbing supply co.:rolleyes:
