So today I was leaving work today, already feeling a hair disappointed, and I notice this African-American woman getting into her own car.\u00a0 She’s staring at me, but I don’t think anything of it.\u00a0 I sit down in my car, and fire up the ignition, and in my peripheral vision, I see movement in my rear-view mirror, and suddenly the lady is standing behind my car, evidently taking a picture of my car, likely the plates.<\/p>\n
I quickly get out of my car and say “excuse me.”\u00a0 No response.\u00a0 Oh, this better be good.\u00a0 “Hello?”\u00a0 No response.\u00a0 “HEY.\u00a0 Can I know why you took a picture of my car?”<\/p>\n
“Weren’t you the one delivering menus in the hotel?<\/em>”<\/p>\n Oh, I get it!\u00a0 The Chinaman, despite wearing a dress shirt, and pin-striped slacks, like 90% of the people in my work complex, is obviously in disguise, to deliver Chinese food menus in the hotel also in the complex!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n “Do I\u00a0look<\/em>\u00a0like I’m here to deliver menus?”\u00a0 I state, pointing at my clothing.<\/p>\n “He had a messenger bag, just like yours.”\u00a0 she responds.\u00a0 Oh, I see.\u00a0 Asians with messenger bags are clearly storing nothing but Chinese food menus, instead of netbooks, sketchbooks, and notepads.<\/p>\n “Well I’m afraid you’re\u00a0terribly<\/em>\u00a0mistaken.<\/strong>”\u00a0 I announce, with every ounce of hatred in my voice.<\/p>\n “I was mistaken.\u00a0 I apologize,” this dumb bitch says very unconvincingly.\u00a0 I continue to glare at her.\u00a0 “I’m sorry.”<\/p>\n “You should be ashamed of yourself.\u00a0 You’ve just racially profiled me.\u00a0 And don’t try and get any sympathy from me since you’re black.\u00a0 60% of Atlanta is black.\u00a0 What is this double standard bullshit that makes it impossible for anyone to make any critical remark towards and African-American, but then blacks like you think it’s okay to make assumptions about me because I’m Asian?\u00a0 I’m not even fucking Chinese, I’m Korean.\u00a0 I’m offended by your ignorance.\u00a0 How would you feel if I photographed\u00a0you<\/em>\u00a0because I saw a black woman on the news doing some crime?\u00a0 Maybe I should start photographing every black person in the city, since the news is full of you people committing crimes on an hourly basis.\u00a0 You ought to be ashamed of yourself.”<\/p>\n Okay, so I didn’t actually say that last paragraph.\u00a0 That’s the conversation I had in my head as I left and was on my long drive home.\u00a0 The bitch left after apologizing, but not without me staring at her, wishing her ill-will and embarrassment for her stupidity.<\/p>\n lol.\u00a0 Chinese food menus.\u00a0 If I see her again, I’m photographing her, and posting her up online as a panhandler.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" So today I was leaving work today, already feeling a hair disappointed, and I notice this African-American woman getting into her own car.\u00a0 She’s staring at me, but I don’t think anything of it.\u00a0 I sit down in my car, and fire up the ignition, and in my peripheral vision, I see movement in my … Continue reading What happened to me today?
