If your children have German passports, speak German as a first language, and were acculturated in German schools, they would absolutely be German or at least more German than anything else.

Pretty much. That child is certainly more American than they are Chinese as any ABC who returns to the old country to “find his or her roots” will tell you. The “I visited China and felt more American than ever” story is almost a cliche at this point.

Louis C.K. carries a Mexican passport and speaks Spanish as a first language which seems pretty Hispanic to me. Harry Shum was born in Costa Rica and spoke Spanish as a first language. According to the US Census Bureau, Hispanic origin refers “a person of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or Central American, or

He used to be a football player and then he took an arrow in the knee.

Neither is Louis Szekely or Harry Shum, but it turns out that Hispanics can be of any race or ancestry (hint, both are Hispanic).

Given her name, appearance, location, and nature of her offence, I would guess she’s native American.

This isn’t a “simple, stupid mistake”, the driver had to put in a significant amount of effort to do something that the cops told them not to do.

Wearing 3D glasses over normal glasses is a pain in the ass.

Probably grew up working class with a vague resentment of people with white collar jobs that he is having trouble reconciling with his current station in life and probably turns off potential romantic partners who grew up more solidly middle-class.

For a nontrivial number of people the his, hers, ours budgets end up with the “ours” part being the smallest of the three and they argue about splitting bills like roommates.

My suspicion is that, given his background and the kinds of thing he was saying, he probably gives off a chip-on-the-shoulder vibe that is off-putting to women who would be his dating peers and grew up in more solidly middle-class families.

There’s something slightly unsettling about her almost perfectly spherical bob.

I remember my cousin playing Quest for Glory as a thief just so he could pick his nose (if you failed, it would kill you).

I’m all about the Great Wall Coolbear, which is basically a Scion xB knockoff.

Must be between 8 and 12 characters including at least two each of: lower-case letters, upper-case letters, special characters (but only certain ones), and numbers.

That’s what the law is in Iceland. If your car is on, the lights are on no matter the time of day.

They’re also for people who know they’re going to see the doctor a lot. At a previous employer, my wife had the option of a PPO and an HDHP w/HSA. If you knew you were going to consistently hit your deductible, the HDHP made more sense because it covered 100% of everything from thereon out while the PPO had

It sounds like she may qualify for a VAWA visa, which is apparently available to undocumented applicants even if they “entered [the US] without inspection”.

I’m seeing similar things for my ZIP code, though I questions their comps. My ZIP code is a largely suburban area of DFW filled with South Asian IT workers and office parks. The white counterpart is basically the Galleria/Uptown area of Houston which has crazy traffic and a destination shopping mall.
