[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My poor 80something mom can't keep up with the changes. Says Afro-American, instead of African American. Oriental instead of Asian or Oriental American. (Ugh) Loves to point out "female doctor" or "male nurse" or worse, "lovely Afro American female doctor"....[/quote] My 80yo mom still says colored people sometimes. Her side of the family, from Detroit, says Walmarts, Targets, etc. Oddly, my mom (she moved to the Midwest in the 1960s) says McDonald, Starbuck, Wendy. As in "Those people who pay a fortune for coffee at Starbuck are nuts! I get my senior price coffee at the drive through at Wendy. Sometimes McDonald only charges me a quarter! How bout that?'[/quote]
