Actual quote from one of my teachers: "I'm not a racist..."
THAT CAN ONLY GO FUN PLACES, RIGHT? RIGHT????
Then:
Her: "Obama doesn't fit the prototype* of an African American."
Us: "Wtf?"
Her: "Totally!"
Me: "Um, no. I don't have a prototypical African-American in my head. Maybe a list of traits**, but not one typical African-American."
Her: "Noo, that's normal. Like his looks or the way he walks."
Me: "Really, NO."
Her: "Pah, you're too pc, you say the same stuff like Schilly***, that idiot****."
Me: "I DO NOT FEEL INSULTED AT ALL*****"
Her: *ignores that*
SO. MUCH. HATE.
* We're talking about prototypes in the linguistic sense atm, thus the topic.
** Basically, "African ancestors".
*** Some German politician.
**** "Oberdepp"
***** Actual quote.
racism: still not funny,
you're dumb,
