Today, I had to explain to my neighbor that not all black people are lactose intolerant. His eyes still bulge out every time I eat cheese. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my 23-year old boyfriend is not talking to me because I bought the regular kind of macaroni and cheese instead of the cartoon kind. FML
Today, my coworker pointed to our nervous new intern and asked who he was. I jokingly said, "Can't you tell? He's our new slave." I then quickly realized how bad that sounded, given the intern is black. FML
Today, my boss fired me for being "too morally ambiguous". I work at a bagel shop and had told a customer that I was indifferent towards cream cheese. FML
Today, I came across a tourist in the street asking people for directions, but nobody understood him. I speak English, so I went to help the gentleman out. He said "Knock it off with the cheesy accent, pal" and informed me that my country is a shithole. FML
Today, a colleague found out that I struggled with anorexia when young. After ranting about how it's a silly 'Women's disease', he renamed me 'Miss Piggy' and made oinking noises every time I ate something. FML
Today, I was together with a few of my friends when I got up the courage to confess I have an eating disorder. One of my friends then said "... but you're not skinny." FML
Today, as always, my boyfriend has the ability to pop his eyeballs out of his eye sockets. He thought it'd be funny for me to wake up face-to-face with the disgusting sight. The shit in my bowels did an early Thanksgiving Day parade straight into my underwear. FML
Today, I went to Cheesecake Factory for dinner. There was a hot waiter who kept passing by. He saw me looking at him and I knew I had to say something. So when he approached my table I asked, "Excuse me, do you have any salt?" and he said, "I think it's right there on the table." FML
Today, I told my grandma my boyfriend had cheated on me. She told me that it was my fault for not straightening my hair, and for gaining a few pounds. FML
Today, I was trying to explain to my mom that I've been having panic attacks. I ended up having a panic attack from talking about having a panic attack. FML

I have plenty of friends who are African American and not one of them are lactose intolerant. I've never heard this stereotype before.

its not really a stereotype but statistically around 75% of africans are lactose intolerant. If you don't know any blacks that are than its probably because they just don't mention it or they have milder side effects to eating dairy then other people so just go ahead and eat it anyways. side note, about 97-99% of asians are lactose intolerant as well... basically every race expect for northern europeans can't handle milk.

You are a special kind of stupid, aren't you? Lactose is a sugar found in milk and cheese is then made from that milk.

Ignoring for a second the statistics about lactose intolerance and such, why the tartan **** does your neighbour think it's any of his business what you eat? O_o Why does he care so much about the potential state of your digestive system that his eyes bug out? That shit's creepy, yo.

How often do people eat cheese with their neighbours?
