Today, I introduced my first serious boyfriend to my mother over dinner. He is Asian. My mom insisted on calling him "Ching Chong". His name is Kevin. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I brought my boyfriend of a year and a half to meet my parents. Turns out he dated my mom. This should be a fun dinner. FML
Today, I introduced my Chinese-born girlfriend to the rest of the family. My uncle immediately blurted out, "He's dating a communist." FML
Today, I had dinner for the first time with my boyfriend's parents. It was awkward enough without his mom asking, "So, what do you do for fun, besides my son?" FML
Today, my mother started dating a man who insists people call him 'Panda'. FML
Today, I had a first date with a guy I met online. And his mom. FML
Today, my boyfriend's mother introduced me as his "friend". We've been together for 10 years. FML
Today, at a family dinner, my mom announced that my newborn brother was named after his father. His name is Kevin. My dad's name is Michael. FML
Today, I was introducing my boyfriend to my parents for the first time. I meant to say, "Mom, Dad, this is Tom." Instead, I said, "Mom, Dad, this is Mom." My boyfriend is now jokingly reconsidering our relationship, and my parents won't stop making fun of me. FML
Today, I brought my Japanese girlfriend home for dinner with my family for the first time. They all got drunk and made heaps of racist jokes right in front of us. My dad forgot her name and started calling her "Rice Ball" instead. FML
Today, my mother invited me to a nice restaurant to meet her boyfriend whom she's been seriously dating for a month. Imagine my surprise when she led me to a table and my boyfriend's father stood up, shocked, to greet me. Rather than being horrified, she is now planning double dates every week. FML

Don't pretend you have a neutral stand between every single race. I am racist to some extent, but that does not mean I tease them or judge them, I just get annoyed really easy by shit some races do. Generally the stereotypical ones.

**** your boyfriend's life. I can only imagine how extremely uncomfortable he felt. And to be polite he probably sat through dinner biting his tongue. You need to seriously talk to your mom about this. She's ******* rude.

My fiance is Korean, his mom could never speak English well, so my parents love to call him "E'war'" like she used to instead of "Edward". It doesn't bother him at all, I've even asked him, he thinks it's just as funny as my parents do. And his mom is an abusive, evil, drunkard...so none of us mind making fun of her.

wow people still say that insult insulting Asians? I haven't heard that name call since high school, and it's been at least 10 years since then.
