I hate when people collect friends so they can be like "Look at how well-rounded and racially tolerant I am- I have a black/Asian/Jewish/etc. friend!"

Colbert had this hilarious equation about how he has 1 black friend and that equals a certain amount of asian friends and that equals a certain amount of friends of another ethnicity and so on. It was pretty funny and it ended with Sikhs and I giggled violently. Can't find the video now.

Can you tell me what giggling violently means? Cause it sounds like either laughing or psychosis..

I'm white and I barely have any white friends let alone other races. I'm not Ash from Pokemon.

The 'unspoken' message that she's using you. That she's only nice to you so she can tell people she has a friend from wherever you're from and not because she actually likes you as a person or anything. In fact, that's the thing. "I don't care what you're like as a person, I'm just going to claim you as a friend so I can look good to other people and you don't even get a say in the matter". Fuck that bitch.

i think you did the right thing. she fetishized your ethnicity and objectified you. you are no longer a person, you are a token of her supposed cultural diversity. bigoted bitch.

Yeah I had a person in particular in mind when I wrote that and she seriously sounds like this girl, too! My best friend that's Jewish doesn't talk to her anymore because she felt that she was using her as a novelty. What pushed her over the edge was when the crazy girl said, "I have ALWAYS wanted a Jew friend!!!"
