Every time I saw them together I would not be able to resist...

"What up YingYang?"

And then, I'd get kungfu'd in the ass.

Was that racist?

Last night at a Chuck E. Cheese birthday party, the teen employee assigned to us was named Thor. I kept thinking of monster's offspring, and wanted to ask for a photo with him and his nametag so I could post it here, but I decided not to be the weird old lady.

It was Wōden's night off.

Did you tell him you knew a Thor ...well sort of online knew (although you did actually meet him, so that counts.....)

Clodfobble · 05-23-2015, 10:34 PM

Nah, I didn't even talk to him. He looked very hip, even for a kid working in a Chuck E. Cheese. Had one of those wide & lengthy Macklemore mohawks. Made me feel old.

Griff · 05-24-2015, 05:59 AM

Well, at least you didn't have to hit google images to find out what a Macklemore mohawk was...

classicman · 05-24-2015, 10:40 AM

WHS .. (after I googled) ... I. AM. OLD.

fargon · 05-24-2015, 10:52 AM

I also googled, I to am old.

sexobon · 05-24-2015, 01:35 PM

Yes, you two are old.

(see what I did there)

fargon · 05-24-2015, 03:38 PM

Gee sexobon, when I grow up I'm gonna be just like you. All smart and shit like that.

sexobon · 05-24-2015, 04:15 PM

You can't grow up AND be just like me...I never grew up!

BigV · 05-25-2015, 11:08 PM

never grew up

or

dirty old man?

sexobon · 05-25-2015, 11:45 PM

Young at heart.

Don't you know that it's worth every treasure on earth
To be young at heart.
For as rich as you are, it's much better by far
To be young at heart.

And if you should survive to 105,
Look at all you'll derive out of being alive!
And here is the best part, you have a head start
If you are among the very young at heart.

My sister and I stopped at an antique store in Memorial, an affluent neighborhood. All people working there were older white people (I assume they are the owners.) While my sister paid for her things, the older white woman asked where are we from. I've been asked this recent enough that I knew what she meant. My sister later said she almost answered Spring Branch (an area north of the freeway). It took her a moment but she replied, "We're Vietnamese." The lady said, "You're from Vietnam? Oh, I wouldn't know what to do with my hands and toes without those Vietnamese girls. They do such good jobs." My sister was confused. Use them, what do else to do with your fingers and toes?? my sister thought. The lady turned and asked me, "What do you do? Do you work from the home?" I replied I do bookkeeping, to which she said, "Oh! So, how long have you been here?" I've been in the states for 40 yrs. "You look too young to haven been here for 40 years." I thank her for the compliment then we left. To many, that was horribly insulting and racist to assume all Vietnamese females do nails. For me I just found it amusing. Those people were polite and friendly. As racist as the woman's assumptions were, I took her remarks were from ignorance of other cultures rather than from ill-intentions.
