I feel your pain everyday OP.

as for me, I look a wannabe arab in the middle east with my fair looks though I was born and raised here... I guess ethnicity is overrated !

I'm also from the Middle East but nobody thinks that I tan or due my hair.

*dye

I'm the tannest in my family for whatever reason. The rest of my family is either pale or slightly tan -.-"

I'm Cuban, and I'm very pale and I speak English fluently, even though Spanish is my native language. Then when I speak Spanish, people are all freaked out because they expect all Hispanics to be tan or to be Mexican, and I'm the only Cuban in my school. It's so annoying -.-

Maybe they're jealous of you?

OP should ask them where they get their skin bleached white. (Unless they are not white, then that would be stupid)

North Carolina is not very culturally diverse I guess.

Nah, we are. We just have fucking morons who were born here that think everyone's supposed to look like them or or else they're faking a ethnicity, especially in the eastern side of the state.

Once you stray 20 miles from a major university, there's not much cultural diversity

Or from a military base....... Lord knows, there's plenty of them here in the east side of the state =)

You could do what Haru did, and show him your pubes. That sure proved his hair was his natural color!

Hehe fruit basket ! That is my favorite episode lol

Who is Haru?

A character from the manga and anime series called Fruits Basket

I thought you were talking about Free! and I was really confused

(fruits basket reference)

Anime?

Anime?

Yep.

You missed the reply button.

Haters gonna hate. Potatoes gonna potate. In all seriousness OP, people would bitch for the smallest things. Just roll it off and fight another day.

You sir have just written the best phrase ever. Love it.

And alligators gonna alligate.

Taters gonna tate, Gators gonna gate.

Slaters gonna slate

stoners gonna bake

Sounds like they're jealous, just tell them you don't tan nor do you dye your hair, you come from the middle-east and your natural appearance has nothing to do with them. It's not your fault they appear to care more about your appearance more than their own and they should concentrate on themselves.

Well, that's their problem. They can wallow in their stupidity all they want, don't pay them much attention OP... and FYL.

You mean you "wannabe" selected "randomly" for extra searching at airports every single time?

#16, when you carry 8 boxes of Eggos in your carry-on luggage, you're going to get randomly screened! In most parts of the world, Eggos are locally available so you don't need to bring your own.

#25, they're hassling you because you're not buying enough overpriced food at the airport and on the plane.

D: That doesn't help.
