It's ...white peeps can be so silly about race. It's definitely not "racist" to act uncomfortable about describing someone as black, but it is a sign that they do not quite know how to act around a black person -- which is to say that they don't have many interactions with people outside their race. Can't blame that person, who knows why they have been isolated in their relationshipsRoseRunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06771324416061217852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336273598199876862.post-74832909287209959332011-07-04T23:16:11.778-04:002011-07-04T23:16:11.778-04:00That is pretty funny... ask Eric how he would have...That is pretty funny... ask Eric how he would have described himself! Looks like "tall guy with dark hair" would have described 2 guys next to him too.<br /><br />LOL @ Kara's comment about gingers not having souls...that South Park episode about "gingers" has influenced me forever!<br /><br />I love the sweaty band design you got - it looks similar to the one I have but mine's pink. After several months of use, I still love mine! I'm not a huge fan of the super wide bondi bands either - might as well wear a hat if I'm covering that much of my head.<br /><br />Those toe clips look like what's on the bikes at my spin classes! They're also not designed for a size 6 shoe...I have to try to really cinch it down around the top third of my foot, or I find my foot inches its way forward over the course of the hour. I hope to try cycling shoes like that some day when I have a road bike! For now it's just my hybrid bike.RunningOnCoffeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00715671909290199683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336273598199876862.post-71579956709548202422011-07-01T22:56:52.062-04:002011-07-01T22:56:52.062-04:00your sweatyband looks awesome and I don't thin...your sweatyband looks awesome and I don't think it was racist it was descriptiveChristy @ My Dirt Road Anthem: A Runner's Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05571125963317402377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336273598199876862.post-38867813398492425332011-07-01T16:39:49.108-04:002011-07-01T16:39:49.108-04:00hahaahahah if he doesn't care, I don't thi...hahaahahah if he doesn't care, I don't think it matters.
