My wife tells me all the time I talk really loud on the phone when talking to my mom (she's caucasian), even though I don't really notice. You have no idea how many times I get yelled at for wearing shoes in the house...crazy Asian rules.

I know. That was more like a "if you mock me and I will mock you back" mentality. I just hope this can all go away. Unnecessary drama. (hell, by posting this I'm spreading the drama also )
