This is not a racist question!

I just observed that race and racial identity means a lot to Americans whereas even Europeans rarely approach the subject. In fact in France , Germany and many European countries, race is not even an issue in census matters. In the UK, most people are not bothered what your race is.

Recently I learned about an American singer called Sanjay who is being heralded as a popular singer I guess. But I think people are just way too curious about his racial identity (half-Indian, half-Italian).

I had stayed in US for 3 months last year and almost everyone I met when I told him, I am Indian asked how much percentage?

WTF - I am 100% Indian but why should it matter? No - I mean I am 1/8 Irish, 1/8 Cherokee, 1/8 Italian and the remaining Anglo! Well Americans are most lousy when it comes to Math, but they do remember these statistics quite well I must say!

I was also in Europe and not even a single person ever asked me what my race was!

I think so! Its all about charging people lots of money while they give out samples that the drug companies make them do. Do doctors really care about patients, I really dont think so. I never heard of parents telling their kids to become doctors cause of the humanity of it but only for the income. These people become doctors for the money, and to impress the daughters parents for marriage, lol.

I can't stand going into certain stores that play the "boom boom" noise from their stereo sections, or when I go into the department stores,the noise really bothers me. Does anyone else have this problem?

Like rolling their eyes at you when you're being serious?
Or sticking their hand in your face when you're already Mad?
Mine is when somebody "grunts" at you like a HOG, to show they don't like you!
I just want to knock all the teeth out their mouth!
Hope you don't mind me venting a little?
