Race is the last taboo, you know.

So, I guess I am a racist.

Item one: On America's Next Top Model all of the girls got all up in it with the model from Alaska because she said "I am the stereotypical white girl." Apparently that is racist.

I say that ALL the time. Because my people are from England. And Denmark. And England. And Denmark. And Scotland. And a tiny bit from Russia. And England. I have no colors in me (except when W is home. Schwing!) AND I am from the OC. AND I grew up in the age of "Project Self-Esteem" wherein we learned that it was unacceptable to say things like "He is black." Instead, we were to say "He is wearing a red shirt." So I am super apologetic about my whiteness, and super aware of it, and, according to the Tranny and the Loud Korean--I mean the model wearing the penis and the model wearing the short shorts--that is unacceptable. Sorry.

Item two: I emailed Azucar the news story with the headline "Whites boost McCain's numbers" because I was all excited that my people got some props for something other than racial cleansing. Because we don't get to brag all that much. About anything. But I think that is probably racist, too. Even though I am gracious to W about the whites and how I will try really hard to get him a pass when the Aryans take over. Because I am a giver, and families can be forever, even if one of them is a Lat-in.

Item three: I am uncomfortable around one of our missionaries because he is deaf and wears a thumb ring. The deafness doesn't bother me, but the thumb ring is a little goofy. Like he is a fifteen year old girl. But in last season's ANTM they got all up in another model's face because they thought she was "racist against blind people." So I am probably in trouble for that, too.

Anyway, sorry for offending the various people in the world. All of them, with all of their different colors of shirts.
