Wow, that was racist

[oddjob]

this happened to a friend. he was in a convenience store and the counter girl says to him

her - "what are you"
him - "i'm sorry, what do you mean?"
her - "are you like chinese or something?"
him - "no, i'm philipino"
her - "oh, i thought so, cause your eyes aren't so chinky" while she said this, she actually made grabbed teh corner of her eyes with her fingers and made chinky eyes.

racism? ignorance? she was not trying to be funny, but she was also not trying to be offensive. she just did it. i view this as a very similar act as the OP's incident, even though it was more blatant, mostly because it was spoken, and mimed.

would we also see the same if they were 2 black guys and the walking girl threw up a bunch of gang signs or something? or the counter girl made big lips or someshit with hers?

btw, i'm asian, i thought both the OP and what happened to my friend were hilarious. mostly cause ignorant stuff like that is hilarious.

i don't really know what my point is.
