  • I dont think everyone does this but I agree, if it doesnt have anything to do with the situation it would be annoying
  • Possibly because there's not a day that goes by when we're not reminded in some way that we're perceived as "different". I wasn't even thinking about race before I read your post. Who brought up race THIS time? As annoyed as you many be having to put up with "minority nonsense", you'd be even MORE annoyed as a minority having to deal with insensitive people who have no clue of what it means to be "different".
  • Congratulations, this is the biggest and most unfair generalization I have heard in several weeks. Give the man a cookie. No one ALWAYS does anything, it defies common sense to say that; anyway, saying people of other races ALWAYS do this no matter the situation is just stupid. Sorry, but it is. I'll admit that sometimes people get fixated on racism and that it would be annoying if everyone I knew did so at the slightest provocation. But what's more annoying is when otherwise quite nice folks make out entire demographics of people as whiners like that just because they've spoken out about something. Both types of people (those that cry wolf and those that generalize) cheapen and minimize the actual problem of racism and discrimination.
