I get called a blue-eyed white devil twice a year (expo and circle city classic). Welcome to the club.

Sorry about the “up yours N…..”! God bless Blazzing Saddles! Unfortunately idiots abound.

Your story is not surreal. You evidently passed through a parallel universe, taking you backwards in time to the early to mid twentieth century when even the most lowdown nasty white guy may have had the idea that blacks, no matter how successful, were under that nasty guy in the cultural food chain. I would rather believe this story of a parallel universe than to believe that any person breathing today would still hold such a stupid and unholy belief (if even in the neurotic recesses of a sick mind). Or since you’re a Star Wars fan, maybe we should imagine that the nasty guy was mistakenly transported to this age from a long ago age, glitch in the transporter… Where’s Spock when you need him.

I wonder if this is the same guy that was banned from the war memorials and is now being represented by the ACLU?

Sorry Kevin, “Cracker” and the “n” word are not even in the same category.

One day, I was walking out of Circle Centre Mall and some random guy on the street yells “Hey Jew Girl” at me – twice! I think the worst part was that no one said anything.

Memo to self: quit wearing the “I love the Torah and Rabbis” t-shirt in public . . .

Same thing happened to me awhile back. I was walking under a pedestrian bridge in Chicago, and two black teenagers walking on the bridge above called me a cracker. The funny part was they didn’t do it to my face…but from a place I couldn’t get to. At first it irritated me, but then I realized that if you are un-intelligent enough to shout crap like that to complete strangers, you aren’t really worth a hill of beans and it really isn’t worth my time to be worrying about it.

No doubt the comment was made by someone of the PWT community. I will say the Blazzing Saddles comment was quick-witted and very commendable.
