I get it, I'm Mexican.
People are always surprised to learn I have never dug under a fence with a spoon.
Are you currently employed as a house keeper?
I'm a nanny. Jeez.0 -
I'm Irish and I'm tired of people thinking I can dance a Jig while drinking. Not saying I don't drink or Dance, I can do one very well and the other, Well...0

I'm half Jewish and half Japanese.
In fact, I was circumcised at Benihanas.
That's funny. I'm sick of the Irish being referred to as drunken rabble-rousers. When I finish this pint I'm gonna kick someone's *kitten*!
:drinker:0 -
Not a racial sterotype but I'm from UK. My Polish neighbour said she thought all British do is drink tea and eat English breakfast.
Actually that is all my dad does0 -
I'm black and asian. I eat collardgreens with chopsticks :glasses:
Blazn?
At least it's better than Bra-moan
Yep... Lolat Bra-moan.. Dang... Nah still better than Samzilian. Sounds like a dinosaur.0 -
I'm from mainly German descent with a little Irish.
That must mean I drink.
Guilty..:drinker:0 -
I was sitting in the airport and this woman walks up to me and says 'Can I ask you a question? I adopted a black child, he is 2 and his hair is starting to fall out in patches..is this normal?'
I said, 'I don't have kids how would I know?'
Then it dawns on my dumb-*kitten*. Ohhhh...I said 'you're asking me because Im black? No honey you need to consult with a doctor not some random woman in the airport'.
Weird right?

I lived in Ireland for 5 years and more than one of my Irish friends would often get drunk and do a jig lmao. Great way to work off those alcohol calories!!0 -

I guess the Irish gives you the sense of humour that the German is lacking.0 -

One of the RN's was wearing her scrubs with her name tag on taking her vacuum out of the car when a white guy came up and asked her (seriously) if she was looking for work.....she is Mexican....and pissed!0
-
Yes. Agreed. My whole family is native american. People see me and see a white girl.
"Your name is Rain? Your sister's name is Natahni? Your parents must be hippies right?"
Like, dude... no...
"You're native american? HOW!" *makes covering mouth motion*
and my favorite.... "You're native american? Like, the tribe in twilight?" OH MY MOTHER EFFING JESUS CHRIST
"Your named after the thunderbird? Like, the car?"
*eye twitch*0 -

this was funny. lol0 -
I'm half chinese...and I can drive like **** about half the time.0

I'm Italian and our motto is: Eat through the pain, while drowning in bowls of pasta. (Actually, that's more like a fantasy rather than a stereotype giving my current lower carb lifestlye, but I digress.)
My ex, who is black, and I went to visit an urban deli and grocery store that sold all sorts of odd cuts of meat and such. He made a crack about his grandfather with his old country accent, asking for the neckbones. Not 2 minutes later a little old black man came up to him and asked him if he knew where the neckbones where! We had a pretty good laugh about that.0 -
I'm Cuban.
I didn't swim here, I don't engineer things from sticks, sand and old Chevy's and I don't sell cocaine like Scarface :laugh:
I did however, swim competitively, build a pretty awesome bridge in AP physics class in 10th grade, and own 4 different copies of Scarface (mostly my boyfriend's fault lol)0 -

lol holy *kitten* ...thats fked up but kinda funny ha0 -
No stereotypes about black women...I'm so shocked I almost fell on my big lo' *kitten* and messed up my hair weave (both of which I do actually have:)
I have neither, but I'll make up for it with my daily dose of fried chicken and a 40oz.0 -
hilarious!0

I helped a Chinese couple parallel park when I lived near chinatown. Complete strangers too. I couldn't bare watching them struggle after 10 min. Their family owned a restaurant in the neighborhood and they treated my boyfriend and I too dinner.0 -

That's better than having enough Native American to be mistaken for a Mexican all the while having a Jewish name. At least my father's mother was full Irish so I'm not short. I'm basically a mutt right?
Oh, do you work at a casino? (keeping the racial stereotype thing going)0 -
Mainly Swedish & Scots-Irish.0
-
I'm a blonde and I...oh wait...blonde isn't a race.
:laugh:0 -
I don't like to be referred to as White. I prefer European American.0
-
Oh please someone do one about chubby, midwestern white men with a pick up truck and a lot of guns.....0
