[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a white, Eastern European. I have Eastern European accent. I get asked by blacks, Asians, Indians, and whites: " Where are you from?". I find it offensive. I answer:" From NYC". Some don't get the message and press on further:"Where are you really from?" I find it infuriating. I answer:" I told you, NYC."[/quote] You are not FROM New York City if you have an Eastern European accent. Sorry, you're just not. Nobody cares if you're Russian, Bosnian, Albanian or whatever but you're posing when you answer like this and shows that you're uncomfortable with your real heritage.[/quote]
