Foxfire 09-19-2004 06:18 PM

Aww thanks Shel. ;) The girl I took that for said the same thing. :p

FUNKNBASS 09-19-2004 06:18 PM

^^^ I agree with you ShelBel, I have a friend from the Filipines and he hates when people call him japenese or chinese, not hate, but thinks it annoying.

Foxfire 09-19-2004 06:20 PM

Imo it's easier to tell when someone's half rather than full. Skin tones are a dead give away, usually.

e p 09-19-2004 06:20 PM

Your skin is brilliant, Fox.

Foxfire 09-19-2004 06:21 PM

My Filipino cousins call me whitey.

:p

e p 09-19-2004 06:23 PM

Honkey, rather.

Da[size=2]mn[/size]! I didn't predict that one Wintermute.

:p

Wintermute 09-19-2004 06:28 PM

Romanian hair/skin tone is fairly similar to Filipino.

I've been to the Philipines, actually. Quite a while ago now, though.

im part laosian and every time i tell someone that i get that **** King of the Hill joke:

asian dude: Im Laosian.
white dude: What ocean?

ShelBel 09-19-2004 06:33 PM

*shakes head at stoopid ignorant people and wants to *THWAP* them across the head*

Foxfire 09-19-2004 06:33 PM

Haha that sucks.

It sucks here. Most of the people here only know the asian they see in kung fu movies.

:p

PaulSimonon 09-19-2004 06:34 PM

*is thwapped*

e p 09-19-2004 06:35 PM

Dude.


Fox, you know who you remind me of?

Bruce Lee.

ShelBel 09-19-2004 06:36 PM

I just get so irritated at people who refuse to acknowledge that there are distinctions, you know? I mean, I doubt I could've told Fox offhand that he was part Filipino, but at least I wouldn't have gone "Meh, Chinese, Japanese, Filipino, whatever".

Wintermute 09-19-2004 06:42 PM

I just get so irritated at stupid people, regardless of their specific stupidity. Though that is a pretty huge and arrogant one.

thats what it seems like to me. at least thats how some people think. when people say stuff like that i laugh because i think that its funny how stupid some people are.

ShelBel 09-19-2004 06:47 PM

Being uninformed is acceptable. Being ignorant (i.e. refusing to be informed) is not. I'm with ya, WIntermute.

jazzfunkboy 09-19-2004 06:48 PM

Fox, i think that you (like me) could be mistaken for being completly caucasian.

ive had people come up to me and be like "what are you"? :lol:

FUNKNBASS 09-19-2004 06:54 PM

At least they asked.

e p 09-19-2004 07:00 PM

That irks me when people are that concerned. It really doesn't matter who your ancestors were, so there's no point in asking. I would only ask if I were friends with that person.

Foxfire 09-19-2004 07:14 PM

Agreed. Some kids on my bus didn't see the asian at all. So it's an odd world. :p

I've had people bring attention specifically to my eyes (which I feel aren't the stereotypical "almond shaped eyes"), to which I said "What about you, roundeye?"

:p

e p 09-19-2004 07:20 PM

Actually when my parents went to China, they found out that the actual American name is "wide nose".

Foxfire 09-19-2004 07:27 PM

Okay! I gotta get back to work.

I have a report due tomorrow, I haven't started, and my parents are going to start bothering me in about half an hour.

Later MX. :p

Lay_Down_The_Groove 09-19-2004 07:30 PM

See Ya Fox

Left Shoe 09-19-2004 07:39 PM

just got back from harassing my friend at his job , this place is weird , when you tip the person they have to sing for you, so i ordered a 49 cent brownie and gave him a dime and he had to sing me their slogan :lol:

FUNKNBASS 09-19-2004 07:51 PM

I hate when my friends come to my job to bother me. I work carpentry and my boss gets all pissed cause he's always afriad of deadlines and keeps thretning to fire me. My work site this week is on the way to one of my friend's jobs so he like stops and honks and pisses the boss off.

thelowsoundofbass 09-19-2004 08:02 PM

i almost got fired today, stuped people that always change there story.

lowsound

FUNKNBASS 09-19-2004 08:04 PM

^^^ What happened?

Foxfire 09-19-2004 08:05 PM

I wish I could GET a real job.

Though at the moment I've got it kinda cushy. My dad pays me 60 bucks a week to make sure his website for his organization is in decent shape and I babysit my brother and his friends.

thelowsoundofbass 09-19-2004 08:06 PM

this one dude that doesn't like it that i got promoted, "caught" me looking throuhg his cds and told our boss. my boss then kinda fliped and wrote me up. now i have to be really careful around this guy cause he culd get me fired. but i am going to be really nice to him just to make him mad.

FUNKNBASS 09-19-2004 08:09 PM

[QUOTE=thelowsoundofbass] i am going to be really nice to him just to make him mad.

lowsound[/QUOTE]

That's how you do it.

thelowsoundofbass 09-19-2004 08:11 PM

lowsound

thelowsoundofbass 09-19-2004 08:13 PM

FUNKNBASS 09-19-2004 08:14 PM

Foxfire 09-19-2004 08:16 PM

I'm also considering getting them finger weights to help with finger speed. :p

thelowsoundofbass 09-19-2004 08:18 PM
