    runs back to AB's thread to update *suspected* (read actual) list

    Jeff failed to mention that he also hates it when people come up to him and say "Hey, you do LOOK like James Hetfield of Metallica!" :D ;)

    I get tired of all the Southern stereotypes such as "Man, you must really love country music and tractor pulls." Um, no, I do not. I have like 6 country CDs out of 800+ and I have been to 0 tractor pulls.

    Hey!Those are my lines! ;)
    U forgot:
    -It's not because France didn't want to go to war that we are cowards!
    -What's up with the latin lover thing?!It's not because I'm French(works also for Spanish and Italiens(maybe a bit less for them though)) that's I'm gonna steal ur wife or GF,or that I'm a great lover!(I wish I was though! :D )
    -Not all French drink wine,baguettes and live in crappy old houses in the middle of nowhere!
    And I'm sure I'm forgetting some!

    For having lived in Africa:
    -Yes there is electricity and running water in the houses.
    -Yes,slavery has been abolished overthere
    -No,I have no seen lions,girafes or elephants in the street
    -No I do not speak fluently African,for the simple reason that they speak over 100 dialects in most countries
    And finally my favorite:
    -No,I did not end up there cause I got lost going to New York! :p

    stereotypes about houston bother me. i'm pretty protective of my hometown.

    i don't like being told that because i'm a WASP i must think a certain way...i must be a racist, etc.

    i don't mind the lawyer stereotypes...though I work really hard to avoid falling into those pitfalls...and our practice is not very traditional in that sense...but i find i don't like many lawyers.

    Playing football and honors classes aren't always mutually exclusive. Saying they are is a stereotype.

    Agreed.

    I worked for Chase about 6 years ago and we had to work with the NY office to merge networks. Anyway, we were referred to as "rednecks who didn't know what the hell they were doing!" This was by a jackfruit named Abdul. Oh, it was a politically incrrect time my friend. We were all granted a full day of sensitivity training.

    I hate people who label me a "wigger" because I Don't dress in polo shirts and I enjoy rap music outside of eminem.

    I am white, but generally I find white guys my age to be annoying and stuck up. The only real friends I have had have been black or mexican, so I don't fit into "my" race, so I'm obviously trying to be someone else? I'm just who I am and I don't give a **** what people think!

    and of course since I say this, I get labeled as an eminem wanna- be.

    :mad:

    :confused:

    you're too easy, yoyao.

    can't say what i want, but it's a joke about me sitting in a chair and a bowl of cereal being on the floor.

    too inappropriate i guess.

    smartassprin :p

    by the way...
