Okay, then I have one that really makes me sad...

There are a lot of Native reservations here in MN. I live in Shakopee and we have a casino less than 5 miles from here with a reservation. And you will see some of the natives drive up to the grocery store in their Hummers and 50k+ trucks with fancy paint and rims, but use food stamps to buy groceries. Some of my family lives up in WAY northern MN and I have had beer bottles and drinks thrown at me in bars by the Natives up there because I am a "stuck up white girl". I have honestly only known ONE Native guy that doesn't fall into that stereotype.

Note: I am NOT saying anything bad about people who utilize public assistance. I am however saying that if you can afford really expensive vehicles and louis and coach purses, then it just doesn't seem to add up!

I live in a small town, so mostly we get families who are food stamps and buy beer with their spare money, drink all day, yell at their kids, and hunt.
Because thats all Kentuckians know how to do.

Lmao.

But no really, it is sad.

Stereotypes are funny, because there is usually some truth to them. Like most people can hear a stereotype and immediately think of a person that they know that it applies to.

hmm... I'd say Black people are said to be cheap tippers. But I always tip. Even when its probably not deserving. So does a black person sayign that tip..put a whole in your theory.
Ido tip less to pizza drivers now..because you have to pay a delivery surcharge now!

Well, we don't get those delivery surcharges.

It really sucks that people think we do, but we do not get them.

And no it doesnt blow a hole in the thing, Lol.
My finacee's black, and he tips, but no other black person does.

Sooo. It sucks.

No other Black person does?!Well the people in my family tip. As they are all Black..I'd say that "no other black people tip" theory is out the window. Besides I think the worse tippers are old people. Not Blacks.

Old people tip me all the time.
Between one and five bucks.

So, that one is out the window.

If there wasn't some truth in them, where would people get the jokes? Of course there's some truth. People are always agraid to tell racial jokes in front of me. I don't see why people get offended, they are in fact, just jokes.

Why doesn't Mexico do well in the Olympics?

Because all their people who can run, jump or swim are already in the US...

Ahahaha! But really. It's funny. Why? Because there's some truth in it. Well, not entirely I guess. My dad can't run, jump or swim well!
