Title: Do you talk back when someone makes racist remarks towards you?
Post by: Cerveza mas fina on February 21, 2019, 01:18:14 AM: Yesterday some old geezer asked me if I cant understand Danish (as I have an accent) when I told him he has to move his car.

I told him I think he has a bigger problem with Danish as he still hasnt done what I said.

Should I just have taken thw high road here?

I'm a classic white mutt, on the one side are people from various parts of the British Isles coming in as indentured servants and then becoming Elevated Americans; then the other side are people immigrating directly from Sweden and the Brand New German Empire where the older women basically spoke only Swedish and German still even when my mom was a kid.

i moved to london when i was 19 and the sense of otherness is profound. they smile when they hand me my change, but it's always a smile that says "shouldn't you be down a mine or looting a shipwreck or something you pasty eating cunt".

Post by: Great Rumbler on February 21, 2019, 09:24:46 AM: I don't like confrontations, so I'd probably just remove myself from the situation.

On the other hand, I'm a white cishet male so it's not likely that i'd ever be that kind of situation to begin with.

What about the fact that we Americans call farting under the covers a “Dutch oven”

Post by: HardcoreRetro on February 22, 2019, 06:01:49 AM: Because it has the same function as a dutch oven? Keep the warmth/smell inside?

That's not racist.
