-That I KNOW how to dance. That is false lol I've cheered for 12 years and danced for 1 the only dancing I know how to do is dancing that has already been choreographed for me.
-That I must love Ramen Noodles, Kool-Aid and corn bead
-My hair is long so it must be fake
-That I only have an interest in politics because of President Obama (false, I've been following politics since I was in the 6th grade).

I thought about this today..

Anyone ever heard the stereotype that black people can't swim? ("because" there were piranhas in the waters around Africa, which is also why we didn't flee from slavery. hm.)

Anyway.. since, according to some of my friends, that's a stereotype, well.. I sure fit it. I swim as well as a the Titanic.

^^^Yeah, I've heard that. Everyone in my family can swim, so we don't count I guess.

Okay, now I'm stereotyping, but I just know I'm right. My friend just called and said that the news just reported people selling MJ commemorative t-shirts outside the UCLA hospital.

Something down in my SOUL tells me they're black. We are stereotyped as late for everything, can't turn in things on time, but whenever there's ANY sort of event (good or bad), t-shirts get printed up at the speed of light. The man ain't been dead but HOW MANY HOURS and you're already making $20 a pop? If it turns out they aren't black, I'll eat my words, but I can just FEEL it.

Black people and their t-shirts. If I ever die and someone puts my picture on a t-shirt, I will "haunt they asses"!

So I'm working at the mall at a jewelry kiosk. This man is gonna walk up with a shirt on that says "Free My Nigga Johnny"! I'm thinking to myself HELL NO! I hope he stays in jail for whatever it is he did! You should go too for that damn t-shirt!

This is funny but not funny at the same time.

Lord. That is so disrespectful.

And to christiangirl: there are bootleg concert/event shirts, and then there are "RIP my n**** Pookie from 145th and Amsterdam" shirts. I hate the hood tshirts!

My mother has this oversized shirt of some dude named D-shawn that she wears to bed. Who is that ma? You don't know him!

Piranhas are fresh water South American fish, so that's out. There are sharks in the salt water, as well as crocodiles in the river. Hippos are also mean and dangerous. If those critters were in my vicinity I probably wouldn't know how to swim either.

My old roommate always wore his FREE LOS and FREE someone else shirts and they were always in his Facebook statuses..

Well maybe if the dumbasses weren't stealing stuff and dealing drugs, they wouldn't be in jail now, would they?

I will be pissed if I'm ever on a RIP shirt.

I hate that people think all Hispanics are fluent spanish speakers. Or that we all enjoy latin food.

And when I order my food in English at the drive-thru, I expect you to answer back in the same fucking language.

Or the opposite, that we can't speak english. I was walking once by my home, which is a pretty decent neighborhood mind you, and a couple of tourist asked me to take a picture of them. Said sure and did it. Now we near a pier I should mention now. So then they ask me where there was water. I said "water" to make sure I heard right and buy time to sort my thoughts out for the directions. As soon as I said it the girl goes "yeah aqua". At that point I said I knew what water was and walked away.

Probably. Or in the head of whoever I asked me about fish. I was at pet store buying something for my mom's new kitten. But then other honkeys confirmed it.

I'm laughing at "honkeys" being underlined by spellcheck.

I'm allergic to fish as well.
