Ok, like wasn't bad enough that this dumb girl made the rude "Chinese kids aren't even cute" comments to me last week. I ran into her again when I had to go in my friends store to pick something up.
Setting: Friend's business
Cast: Me, husband, dumb girl (FoaF-friend of a friend-now to be called Idiot FoaF or IFoaF), and other Friend of same friend but she is smart and sweet (hmmm, I will give her the acronym SaSFoaF)
So.......
Me (entering business): Hey girls, is A in?
SaSFoaF: No, sorry. You guys look nice.
Husband: Thanks!
IFoaF: Hey, what do you guys do for work anyhow?
Me: We own our own mortage and financial services business
IFoaF: Oh, fun, I need to make some more money. Could I do that?
Husband: Sure, we could always use help, we could talk about it.
Me: (silently kick him)
IFoaF: So, are you planning on working next year when the baby comes home?
Me: Very part time, we'll see.
IFoaF: I was thinking of starting a tee-shirt business. I could make you one with a Chinese Takeout Box and a Chinese kid coming out of it-it can read Chinese Take Out.
SaSFoaF: (rolls her eyes) Um, I don't think that would be very PC
Me: (blood pressure going up) She is right, I don't think the other adoptive parents, nor do I, think that is funny. Besides missy (nervous laugh), you are already on thin ice with me after your comments last week.
David: Honey, we have to go, we are running late.
IFoaF: I just don't know why you guys don't get a white baby? Why get an Oriental? (I swear she really did go there, again)
David: I , um, have to make a call, um, outside. Bye ( SaSFoaF)
SaSFoaF: (Looked as though she wanted to crawl under the desk)
Me: Oriental is for rugs, not people. I just, wow, you are misinformed. Bye, (SaSFoaF). Let A know we stopped in.
WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE DONE?

I swear you must be making this up! This girl can't be that stupid!
If you could give her my number I'd sure like to sell her some swampland!
It's smack down time!!! Ana ;-)
Is this what we have to look forward to? I can't believe someone really said all this! I'm afraid if it happens to me I'm not going to be so nice...I know it's going to be REALLY hard to show any mercy. Yuck. I Hope that is the last of the ignorant people you and your family will ever have to run into!
