We’ve had a weird day…
We’ll be sitting down to dinner shortly. As it will be just Karla, Luke, Finley, and I, I don’t think too much inappropriate will be said…
Consider yourself lucky.
Choose your own inappropriate adventure:
"That was, of course, when we got a new CEO, who was a—let's see, how do I put this tactfully — FAGGIT! "
"The blacks have their own national anthem? How does it start, 'We wanna pick more cotton?' "
"3 hots and a cot, asshole, you didn't do shit in Vietnam."
We're not even at dessert!
Why does none of this shock me.

I can't wait to find out whether they actually can.

"Here's what I don't get about the Asians: why do they call themselves Asians? It's never Chinese or Japanese or Vietnamese, it's always just 'Asian.' Why would you do that unless you were ashamed of where you came from? Right?"
Holy shit I should get on Twitter and live-tweet this.

That’s not my experience at all.

I’m willing to be convinced.

Don’t tell your Japanese friends that.

Nor mine, nor anyone who should ever be listened to.
How you survive these conversations is to never take them seriously.

My Japanese acquaintances always refer themselves as Japanese. Chinese however do make a point of saying they are from Hong Kong or not. Koreans say they are Koreans and Vietnamese say they are Vietnamese. I don’t know anyone who refers themselves as Asian. I do not even think there is a category for Asian on Government forms. Here, you are either Canadian, Landed Immigrant (if so, place of birth is asked) or Indigenous ( First Nations, Inuit or Métis).

@renauda exactly...
You don't say "I'm European." You say I'm German, French or Italian."
Most of Russia is in Asia, do Russian citizens qualify as "Asians?" Of course not.
If you want to define a race by characteristics, that's fine. There's lots of caucasians in Africa, Asia, etc.
This is politically correct BS.
