I was in the grocery store today and saw a black man...guess what was in his trolley...a watermelon.
After smirking to myself in shameless racist form, even though I'm half-black, I wondered, what stereotypes that aren't PC really are true?
My friend did just get his car hit by an Asian girl, and my car was hit by an old man driving a Lincoln Town Car...seen any stereotypes lately yourself that AREN'T supposed to be true or PC?
Here's another...ever seen any white people working in nail parlors? I don't think I ever have...they're all Asians.
I'll admit it, I'm going to hell!

I know this sounds horrible, but I really have never met a dumb asian. I know there are probably some out there, but I need to meet one.

Well, you have to understand that stereotypes are merely exaggerations of the truth. So there may be some truth in them, although it's not so widespread as the specific stereotype makes it out to be.
The one stereotype that I see the most truth in is that older Asians do tend to have poor driving habits. Maybe it's actually the older immigrant Asians or just older people in general-I really don't know.
It's probably not right to treat people of a certain group based on stereotypes, though, because the practices of a few don't necessarily also reflect on others of that group, right?

It is the fourth of July you know.... I mean Everybody eats watermelon on the fourth where I come from... maybe this is the only time during the year that he eats watermelon....
Anyway, Jews are typically careful with their money... I have known many Jews and none of them are what you would call extravagant with their $$
Mexicans typically do have a very unique way of tricking out there rides... tiny steering wheels, hydraulics, dingle balls, etc.
Also where I live there are tons of white women working in nail/hair salons.

Sweety are you bored and trying to piss people off?
1. Stereotyping often results from, and leads to, prejudice and bigotry.
2. Unchecked prejudice and bigotry leads to discrimination, violence, and, in extreme cases, genocide.
Words and thoughts are powerful tools!! Use them wisely You should be ashamed !

Asians really can't drive.
I've never met a dumb, lazy Asian, or a stupid, naive Jewish person with no money.
