The one question they always ask you that you hate

[judowarrior]

When people learn my name, they ask "are you Mexican?" and then they continue to press implications, like I own a cartel as well or something.
Fuck off, Mexico is not the only country that speaks Spanish. Also, I do not do drugs, get over it.

When people see what classes I am taking, they also look at me in some kind of horrified way, like I am defying nature by being of Hispanic heritage AND challenging myself in school.

Also the one about liking most music genres under the sun. It normally goes like this.

Them: So do you like rap? I like Daddy Yankee. (obviously because I'm Hispanic)
Me: Some is good, but I do not like most that is on the radio today
Them: So what do you listen to mostly?
Me: Progressive metal right now, especially Tosin Abasi who combines Jazz, Classical, and Metal in to his music
Them: *Stares Blankly*..Cool
Pisses me off to no end

Granted not everyone is like this and there are a lot of cool people, but in the end it happens.

It's fairly obvious upon seeing me in public that I have a thing for tattoos. I'm covered. People who have no tattoos to speak of often try to sit down and ask if whatever they're thinking about getting is a good idea or they want to show me some horrible basement artwork they had scrawled onto their body. It irritates me to no extent because it implies that they think there is common ground between us when, in reality, I just want to snap their neck.

For those of you who do this, STOP. Those of us who actually give a shit about the body modification community don't give a rat's ass what you do to you own body, and we hate looking at your awful artwork. You may use yours as some sort of discussion piece, but we generally don't.

Oh yeah, and grabbing people in passing so you can get a closer look is RUDE.

No body asks me questions.

Are you a gipsy? No I'm not,I'm romanian! >.<

Why are you staying indoors playing games all the time? Because I don't like going outside much due to being fat.

What do you do for your paycheck?

F*** Off.....Been doing it for 10yrs

 

[Ochidi]

not exactly a question, but it pisses me off regardless: "You should play football/basketball"

I get told this often just because of the fact that apparently they can't comprehend that someone 6' 6" has no interest in mainstream sports.

People tell me the same thing. It irritates me how surprised they are when I say I don't really like sports.

As a Muslim I get bombarded with loads of annoying and insulting questions:

"Are you Arabian?" No you idiots, I'm Indian/Pakistani, Muslim does not automatically being of Arab heritage!!!

"Are you from Arabia?" No, I am actually from Africa

"Do you hate America?" Not a huge fan of it because some of it's people and policies are completely stupid but that doesn't mean it's all bad, it's got plenty of good things

"Do you like to blow stuff up?" No, I don't like anything to do with explosives and firearms and I'm a complete pacifist

"Are you gonna drop out of school and become a terrorist?" I've got good grades and I plan on going to university and become a CPA so NO!!!

"Are you gonna blow up the school" No, because I'm not a murder or terrorist

"Are you related to Saddam Hussein?" Just because I have the same last name does not automatically mean I'm related! Plus He's Iraqi and I'm not! End of story!

"Did your dad blow up the WTC?" No, he's the manager of a Mercedes dealership and has a good life and is strongly against violence.

The list goes on.

My God, what sort of place do you live that's filled with such ignorant pricks?

OT: "You're tall, do you play basketball?" I swear, every. single. person. asks me that. Sometimes I'll say "You're short, are you a jockey?"

 

[TheColdHeart]

"So because you're diabetic does it mean you can't eat any sugar at all?"

NO...do you honestly think that?!

 

[Nouw]

"Hey you have fake nails."
"Fuck you they're real."

Although that is exaggerated a bit xD, I have long nails (the lower part, not the part where you can cut off) so I get asked about my nails from time to time. Doesn't annoy me but when someone says I have fake nails, I'll rip them off and show the blood oozing out and laugh.

Being a bit more serious, I don't have a question that pisses me off when asked. Then again there is "Are you going to ask her out? or "When are you going to ask her to dance?" or "Do you still like her" and the list goes on... I don't hate it or get annoyed but another negative factor I can't seem to word.

 

[newdarkcloud]

ANYWAYS! i hate these questions (they always seem to follow the same pattern, but with different wording):
THEM: Do you have a Girlfriend yet?
ME: No not yet
THEM: ...Are you gay?

Its starting to get annoying, though getting called gay doesn't bother me at all anymore

This. This so very much.

But your are not gonna blow them up for asking so?

Just kiddin', i know you wouldn't... you won't, right?

Also, i hate when people ask me if i am ok - if I'm ok, theres no need for it, and if I'm not, then surely I'm not in mood for talking.

"Why is your face red all the time, are you like embarassed or somthing?" I just have really pale skin and thats how it reacts to the sun.

 

[Razgrizaces]

"Dude, why are you so freaking smart?" (After I pull over a 90 on a test)

"When are you going to get taller?"

Ugh. I'm smart because I listen in class, I haven't exactly gotten taller yet, just wait for me to get taller... >.< Hate people who ask me these questions consistently.

 

[Irradiated Tiger]

I wear glasses so I am frequently asked if i can see without my glasses and when I take them off people hold up their hand and ask how many fingers they are holding up. "None if you don't stop waving your hand in my face you d***!"

 

[DesiPrinceX09]

My God, what sort of place do you live that's filled with such ignorant pricks?

I live in Florida, and I've visited other states and I get asked questions like these everywhere. I don't mean to point fingers but they are always at their worst and most frequent in small Southern towns like the one I used to live in and where I spent middle and high school (Northwest Florida).

But your are not gonna blow them up for asking so?

Just kiddin', i know you wouldn't... you won't, right?

Nope, not gonna happen even if it is sometimes tempting. Me blowing something (or someone) up is as likely to happen as a chicken giving birth to Ostriches

"Is your hair naturally that blond?"
Yes. Yes it is.

I mean, seriously. They say it like it's a bad thing to have platinum blond hair.

 

[Verp]

"How can you know you're asexual if you haven't at least tried sex?"

... So how many times have you tried gay sex to determine whether you're gay or not, again? Or, if you're gay: are you sure? Are you really really sure? Shouldn't you try sex with the opposite sex a few times just to know for sure? What, you're not obligated to give it a try? Then why am I?

Of course, I usually can't be quite that snotty to people who ask that. But, sometimes I wish I could.

"Is it in yet" >_<

You win!
