me: No offense, but what other shade am I supposed to call you? You should be proud, your skin is gorgeous.
girl: I'm not dark, stop saying that! Just because I'm not light like you or have your hair...
me: What the hell are you talking about, all I do is put mine in a ponytail. You're the one who knows how to do hair. You can do more with your short haircut (it fell just below her ears) than I could ever do with mine, your hair is beautiful!
girl:MY HAIR IS NOT SHORT AND I AM NOT DARK!!! DON'T SAY THAT, GET OUT OF MY ROOM!!!
Man...Some people just...dang.

I have a similar reaction when people call me light.

Well, not exactly. I have never kicked anyone out of my room.
