Okay, a-hole clickbait title, I know.
I don't mean in a racist "how can the Mexicans not like Christiphor Columbus?" way, but in a more practical "why is that big bald dude with NJ plates wiping his black SUV down on a dirt road in rural NH while wearing a black suit?" way. I almost thought about calling the cops--not because he's doing something illegal (he probably is though), but because of the whole scene that just screams disrespect to the locals. Should I go check it out on foot? __________________ [Insert thought-provoking and comedic quote here] |

I did walk down with pepper spray and a multi-tool. "Well dressed fire hydrant" man and his shiny black SUV were gone. Am I going to hear about a body or a bunch of people losing their shyt on some new synthetic psychedelic? __________________ [Insert thought-provoking and comedic quote here] |

Maybe it was the bumper sticker:

I get you are being funny (or at least I hope so) but on a serious note I’ve met some people perpetually confused or outraged or scared of “foreigners” (doing mundane every day things but in a “foreign” manner). It doesn’t even matter that perceived “foreigner” is actually American, naturalized or born here. But for them we are all forever foreigners, as soon as they hear your accent or see you looking different or doing something that somehow is “disrespect to locals”. Lol
I know people who travel for work often have to wipe their cars before meetings because it’s just a bad look to show up in a filthy car after long commute. I don’t travel for work but I commute through a long chain of road constructions and my car needs wiping if I go to something important after So even if it’s a joke, it’s sadly not an uncommon sentiment. Oh and I gave a good friend, Italian immigrant, although not in NJ. She has multiple examples of people alluding indirectly or making very direct jokes about Italians being in Maphia. Right to her face. She shared that it’s painful every single time. It’s maybe funny but on their expense. Ultimately stereotypes are painful, not funny though |
