So, part of my adventure today was working with a group of guys that, while cool, do not know when to quit.
They are your typical blue collar kind of guys, ragging on team members, gay chicken and jokes, talking about hot girls and pussy...normal. Until they turn it on me.
Today I was called racist...repeatedly for no obvious reason other than it was funny to the black guy calling me racist. Over and over, jokes about how I was a racist. When I asked him to do something: 'Yes'm, Mas'a, suh.' "It's because I'm black isn't it?" And at first I was like, haha...nah, I always thought you had a really good tan. But as the day wore on and these proddings didn't stop, indeed they intensified. I just lost it and had to separate myself from the group...because by the end of the day it was all five of the guys with these jokes against me (two hispanics, two white guys and the black guy). I tried to laugh it off and told them that my ex-boyfriend and my roommate were both black.
Then the jokes became about how I liked the chocolate.
*sighs*
It was overwhelming and upsetting.
Then I came home to find out that no one had fed or walked Harley since I took him out at five thirty a.m.
Lovely.
I am tired but still riled.
Oy, I just had to get that off my chest.

i throw out my gf is black one of my best friends is asian and i am a mutt of multiple countries thus proving your arguement invalid.
"It's cause I'm black, isn't it?"
"yup..."
I don't see any English family's coming to me and saying "Hey, Edwards the I through the III sucked ass, our bad, man." I wasn't involved and neither was anyone else living today. shut the fuck up and history will die faster.
Seriously, why should I be apologetic for something that I had nothing to do with?
I'm not going to people with English decent demanding that they apologize for what they did to my Indian ancestors. "I want an apology for smallpox infected blankets right now! And my great-whatever's land back."
Just wanted to say it cause its dumb. Anyways guys at einseins would do that too. Turned out it was because they wanted to get in bed with me. Not saying that's the case but it could be. I've seen the trend, not saying its just black guys but guys in general.
Today he yelled out across the concourse 'Look! Here comes the racist!' I think maybe he wants to get me beat up or something, haha.
