Wait, the parent's first response wasn't to talk to the school but to go straight to the media?

I'm as open-minded as the next guy but I don't smile at people until the 4th date.

He looks like the Aaron Carter that Aaron Carter always wanted to be.

Holy crap. They're pretty.

Agree, and that's how I do in my personal life and interactions. People could perhaps learn a bit about tact, at a minimum.

Although a romance happens, TFIOS isn't really a "romance." It is more about finding meaning in your life, even if your life is kind of fucked up.

It's a work of fiction. By definition it's fake, forced and contrived. Narrative arcs, character development, conflict, climax, denouement. It's pretty standard in every work of fiction ever.

$15 million lead isn't quite 'obliteration,' especially in the summer season when movies more than double the weekend take of The Fault in Our Stars. Albeit, usually with superheroes and special fx.

I hate that question!

This isn't racism or reverse racism. This is parody for the purposes of attempting to bring context to those who wouldn't understand how many casual, obstensibly well meaning remarks by white people not trying to offend can come off as prejudicial or offensive.

The thing that some white commenters don't seem to get here is that you don't have to have ill intentions in order to make statements that are racist.

You don't GRILL cheese in the microwave. You are making a sog cheese sandwich. You are doing sandwiches wrong, and it's very important that you know this.

this question is so rude across the board. I'm white and almost everyone asks me this when I meet them. What they really mean in my case is "how do you get tan and what country did you get that nose from?" When I reply deadpan "I'm white" it's usually followed up by "but you look so exotic!". Like that's even a…

What would be really powerful would be if you called them out on it.

I have been known to make a grilled cheese in one of those newfangled science ovens, but trying to deny that grilling them in a mess of butter doesn't make them a million times better is just trolling.

I'm familiar with just about all of them... Especially when I'm not on the west coast.

As a token black friend with a bunch of token Asian friends: yes, people say this shit and they say it often. I would also recommend looking at the "shit white girls say to black girls". It pretty accurate. Some people just can't help themselves from saying stupid and mildly racist things to minorities.

Because it isn't grilled. You're just making a melty, probably a little soggy cheese sandwich.

You MICROWAVE grilled cheese? What is wrong with you?

Get to know them for a few months, it'll come up organically as you become buddies.
