Remember the woman at the hospital who I work with, the one who said that bald is a hair color and off is a TV channel in a discussion about Godlessness? Well, she gave me another gem. Her: So, what ethnicity are you? Me: I'm Costa Rican and Filipino. Her: Ooh, Costa Rican! Did you immigrate here when you were young? Me: No, my maternal grandparents immigrated. My grandfather got a job in cartography here. Her: I don't understand why they would leave. I heard it's beautiful there. Was there a civil war or something? …this one doesn't bug me because it was entirely innocent, but really, woman? Because I'm Latino, she immediately assumed that my grandparents were fleeing from "a civil war or something". Wow. Just… wow. It's also worth mentioning that one of the first things she ever said to me was "do you speak Spanish?". This was, of course, her immediate reaction after looking me up and down. Is she older? If so, you could ask her to share her memories of the day Archduke Ferdinand was assassinated. Teach her that assumptions help no one. 7 minutes ago, Pinnacle-Ferring said: I read your other post about Spongebob!co-worker with no context. I was very confused. Sorry. You can has context now. 4

Woke up at 7AM to the sensation of an earthquake shaking the bed. Epicenter in Oklahoma, magnitude either 5.6 or 5.8, depending on who's doing the reporting. I heard about that. I didn't feel anything. It might be because I got home at midnight, though. There was another football game last night. (We won. Also, Reginald the spoon has become band famous. I'm so proud. ) Edit: I found a video on how to read sheet music. It's hilarious. Edited September 4, 2016 by Mistrunner 4

To be fair, we could probably just not use spoiler tags and nobody would understand what's going on anyway. Like why watching television is much saver than becoming one with nature. 1
