The "Thank You, Come Again!" Offensive

21 Oct

I believe I’ve mentioned before that it is wrong to stereotype. Wrong, wrong, WRONG. As in not right. It can be downright offensive, even. Especially if you look like an Aryan and live in Idaho, like I do!

However…

If you’re like me, you can’t help but notice and make assumptions about certain ‘types’ of people no matter how hard you try, right?

Right!

I mean honestly, can I help it that I can spot a taco truck driver and assume his name is Jesus from a mile away (or that I assume his tacos with extra, extra jalepenos will be delicious – hooyah!!)???

No, I can not.

And is it my fault that I assume every pair of well groomed, suit-wearing, bicycle-riding young men around here are Mormons (or that I think they belong to a cult and should be out sewing their oats instead of trying to preach to the frigging choir because what the hell sort of mission is it to be sent from one Mormon hell to another anyway, shouldn’t they be sent to Uganda or Belize or some shit so they can be chased down by cannibals instead of trying to convert the only two non-Mormons around here, namely me and Jesus??? Ugggghhhhhhh!!!)???

No, it is not!

Then it is no surprise that I can’t help but assume that “Bob”, the guy who runs my local Quick Stop is “not from around these parts”, right??

Right!!
Heh.

“Bob” also runs the local Super 8 motel, too, but it isn’t MY fault that I assume that he seems to want to fit the stereotypical stereotype which we’re all supposed to pretend doesn’t exist:

Right???

Right!!!

Oh, but imagine my surprise when I found out that “Bob” also owns the local YMCA, too!!!

OK, he just works there, but still. I would have never assumed that! So from now on, I’m going to assume everyone named “Bob” are lifeguards as well as Quick Stop and Super 8 owners.

Oh yeah, and did I mention I now also assume that my “Bob” is a total pervert because every time he sees me all he says is ‘thank you, come again!”??

That’s riiiiiightttt.

:)

*** THANK YOU FOR SUBSCRIBING TO MY OFFENSES!!! ***
  • and it's really rude that you assume because I'm an old woman,, I peed myself laughing while I read this.... ... um... off to change my undies ....
  • Most of the time I'm right...like all the soopa HAWT guys with chizzzled bodies are gay? Right?
  • LMAO we don't have Mormons just Jehovah Witnesses but I assume it's the same thing, right??? Ha ha

    Hell there's nothing wrong with assuming...99.999999999% of the time those assumptions are on the money!
  • Mormons down here in the Bible belt are funny, too.

    Thank you. I'm come again.
  • What do you call a guy with no arms or legs floating in a barrel of apples? Bob. C'mon you knew that. Hey, does your Jesus pronounce his name with a hard or soft J? Hust wondering.
  • I usually need to take pills to get my turban that big.
  • Haha! Love the site and love the fact that I do all of these things myself!! I agree with the person that said, atleast you get a thank you and please come again! lol
  • Oh that is great!Is it wrong that I assumed that "Bob's" real name was Mohammed?
  • I think he may be a perv. Perhaps, he'd like to love you long time?
  • My favorite party store was just sold to a "from India Indian"... Now I have to explain the jokes I tell...
  • I'd like to come again, thank you.
  • Wish somebody would tell me, "Thank you, come again!"
