At the office:

"What is Wasabi? It sounds Japanese, like Chipotle."

In America, "wasabi" is simply green-dyed horseradish.

Did you report them to HR?

Did you point and laugh at them?

Wasn't it Truman Chipotle that said, "A conversation is a dialogue, not a monologue. That's why there are so few good conversations: due to scarcity, two intelligent talkers seldom meet."?

ROFL @ Truman Chipotle

I don't laugh at her anymore. It's sad. After she asked me what state New Hampshire was in, it stopped being funny.

She did mention not being very good at Geometry, so I get it.

I work with a guy from India and our racist redneck boss keeps asking him to speak "Indian". Like he's told her over and over that imperialism is a thing, and that his native language is English not "Indian"- which we discussed at length and came away with the conclusion that we think she means Hindi. He's just started saying "Namasté" whenever she does it.

While you're at, tell him that it's 'colonialism' and not 'imperialism'.

No, because I have a basic concept of history. The states were colonized, the Indian subcontinent was absorbed as part of the British empire. I've been to middle school. You can't fool me into looking like the dumbass white guy who challenges someone's assertion about their own culture as if I know more simply because I'm white passing.

Colonialism is one country assuming [total] control over another; imperialism refers to political or economic control.

Islandman and CandiCame

You're both right. The East India Company began the British imperialism of India, which led to the colonization of the country.

"brown-skinned guy" privilege!

Pathetically played, de Wannabe...

...very pathetically played, indeed.

Can you play your equally pathetic "retard" card now...

...and then wish someone you don't like dead, again?
