People that are constantly texting/BB'ming whilst you're talking to them either at work or when out with your friends. Rude and also very sad cause most don't even know they're doing it.

Also, just walked behind a gypo and his mum out shopping, the lad stopped to empty the contents of his nose onto the pavement just in front of where I was walking. He did it a couple of times and his mum didn't even say anything. Screb.

I've always assumed that it's because I'm tediously dull.

4 Asian girls sitting on the grass in the courtyard laughing constantly and loudly at ten to 5 in the morning. I had to get out of bed and everything to ask them to be quiet.

why does is matter they were asian? just asking...

He's just being discriptive ffs. He's mentioned they're girls; they were on the grass;it was in the courtyard. Why have you locked onto the race element?

The question is why did he lock onto their race? Do Asian girls laugh differently? Or in a particularly annoying way? I don't know I have never made any girl laugh.

John Terry called Anton Ferdinand a black cvnt, was that just being descriptive?

The question was asked why did it matter that they were Asian, a valid question, and for one would be interested to know the answer.

Not this again.

Pressing quote instead of edit, ffs.

@bornblue to be honest I am just curious if the fact they were Asian was relevant.

If they were Orientals it's going to be more of a high pitched giggle than a laugh.

relax, i did say i was just asking, if it doesn't matter why mention it...

There's no such thing as an Oriental person. It's only a term for 'things or objects'. A vase for example. A person would take offence from the term in China/Japan/etc.

lol I knew this would happen.

It was somewhat irrelevant pointing out they're Asian, though.

First of all, obviously not, as that's clearly used in a negative and hateful way.

Secondly, Asian girls have the stereotype that they laugh at everything...which makes it funny I don't get why people get 'curious', there's nothing mean by it.

It's like when pointing to some one, "See that black/asian guy over there....." It's only mentioned because it's the most obvious feature about them. Nobody says that if there's a whole load of whatever minority there, it's just the most defining characteristic at the time. It bugs me but it's annoying to discuss.

Probably would have been more insulting to call them Welsh. If the girls had been born in England they would have been English.

[Corky]

People who use the word "defiantly" when they mean "definitely".

Yes they do laugh differently and most of them always say "innit innit" which is annoying.

And before anyway says I'm being racist I'm half Asian myself and I tell my cousins it's annoying.

[Rincewind]

It's not so much calling them Asian but the 'assumption' that they were Asian. If it was white girls the post may have read 'four young girls' It is possible for Asian people to be white but their country of origin would not be known. So the word 'Asian' implies that they were probably non-white. I don't think it is racist to think this way as for most it is a natural thought. It all comes down to the context of the phrases and words used.

Quite and the reason I do not watch women's tennis. There is only one time that a woman may scream when not in danger.
