Found The Guy From Quickie Mart!

[Homicidalheathen]

So I go up to get the paper, and Habib (looks like him, talks like him!) at 7-11 says to me.....

Why are your eyes so red???

I say...I just got up.

He says, 'Don't you sleep well? You one of those people who Can't sleep all night tossing and turning or is it something else?'

Dunno what the guys problem was. Maybe he thought I had a joint out in the car or wanted to sell me some sleep medication.

Not trying to sound racist but he really did remind me of the guy on the Simpsons since he owns the store and all....anyway here is some interesting reading for those of you who are bored. YAWN

looks like from this racism is alive and well......terms I never even thought of or heard going on all over the world.

List of ethnic slurs

ज्ञानकोश: - The Indological Knowledgebase

The following is a list of ethnic slurs that are, or have been, used to refer to members of a given ethnicity (or, in some cases, nationality or religion) in a derogatory or pejorative manner. The term is listed, followed by its primary user(s) and a definition.

Terms on this list vary greatly in offensiveness. Many are taboo. Some are used more widely than might be imagined based on their "definition"; for example, Boatie can be used to refer to any Vietnamese person, a form of metonymy. The key here is that the person using the slur cares so little about the target, that the person's actual background is irrelevant. The motivation for using an ethnic slur is often racism or bigotry.

It is not uncommon for minority groups to adopt an originally disparaging term and use it of themselves, as an act of self-assertion. However, they may be extremely offended if it is used by others; nigger is an extreme example.
