I say stuff like this all the time, not a reason for FML...

i really do wish people would just say "black" instead of "african american." i mean, when people start calling british black people "african americans," we've crossed the line.

I never realized that BRITISH Africans are Americans.

no that's what he's saying their not. that we lump all dark people and call them African American, when their could be some from Britain.

*there*

"Most African Americans live in Africa"

If you're going to call someone black an African American, you can call white people Caucasian.

#8, i was referring to someone else, sorry. i have no idea whether this man is british.

funny funny funny

i lol'd.

lol, pure fail.

no lie, that was a stupid thing to say. and thats not an FML!

nope that's just people being dumb and not thinking before they speak!!! oh but fyl though!....poor you!!!

that halarious!

how do you know he was "african american" and not just a black guy? :P nothing wrong with what you said. he should have laughed.

how can you say he should have laughed? your obviously not too bright!! kuz I'm black and I wouldn't have laughed! kuz I don't think it's funny!! but I doubt i would have been offended!! dat shits just not funny!! wack ass joke!!

I feel like I might understand that what you were trying to say was positive, but please, don't skip English class next time.

Back in the 30's and such, it was a compliment to be called "white." Eg. "That's mighty white of you, sir" (The Blue Dahlia; 1946). Maybe he took it as such. Probably not, though.

WTF!! did you really post that shit!! it was a compliment because every white person was racist. look at the time period you just stated!! the mutha effin 30's!! this is america do you know what was going on in the 30's? well let me tell yah it wasn't too fun for the blacks!! dats dat dumb ish!!

I feel like your comment could've been more impactful if you knew how to spell...
