Is the following phrase inappropriate: "if I keep eating rice I'm going to get wide eyes"?

Question

Let me know why (yes or no)
Ps: I said that phrase in a Thai restaurant to my wife (nobody else heard) and I've been eating sushi almost every day of the week

Answer 1

Yes it is inappropriate. It is meant as a racial slur.

Answer 2

It's funny because you said it in a non-offensive way. Looks to me like you only used it to describe how much rice you ate. I tell my wife the same thing shen we eat asian all the freakin time.

Answer 3

Dang, that's a tie between chocolate-coated almonds and Reeses peanut butter cups. those 2 are so marvelous that I keep ingesting even while my abdomen is done. Now that i think of approximately it, perhaps the cups are my in demand. they are so stable.

Answer 4

I don't think it is inappropriate in the context that you used the word--only with your wife. But overall, I don't think it is something you would want to say all the time, because it isn't true, and people may think that you are using the term in an offensive way.

Answer 5

I don't think it really makes sense....I think it would make more sense (and be a little inappropriate) if you said "I've eaten so much rice, my eyes are starting to slant."

Answer 6

Well yes, Orirntals eat rice all of the time and they don't have wide eyes.

Answer 7

yes, because of course if you keep eating rice , you will get more narrow eyes, silly.

Answer 8

yes

Answer 9

asians dont get as bent out of shape as SOME races when you joke about them...its all good

Answer 10

that's a funny question...and a funny phrase too. Don't think is inappropiate
