Sometimes I am but sometimes not. I sense the sny(i)de tone of your comment though.

 

Actually I did an English lit major back in the day.

 

 

 

I did yes, you must be very smart.

Here's another literary reference for you - take a flying #@#@ at a rolling doughnut, take a flying #@#$ at the moon.

 

Look it up and correct the spelling.

The level of detail people will go into to “just be right”.

 

Winning a spelling bee does not make somebody more or less prejudiced.

 

Actually, I think you are incorrect there.

 

Winning (or losing)a spelling bee could well be linked to the inclination to being prejudiced.

[Mamil]

How so?

It's only prejudiced if it's a BEE spelling bee. 

 

Sorry. I'll take my coat and hat.

One of my "African" students summed up these types of topics perfectly in a few words.

 

European Skin colour people in South Africa ( Probably other places to) are always seen as:

Competent until proven Incompetent

Innocent until proven Guilty 

 

Where as darker skin colour people 

Incompetent until proven Competent 

Guilty until proven Innocent.

 

 

Myself have been guilty of this and have really put in an conscience effort to eradicate this in my life.

Human brain is a fascinating piece of genius and capable of subconsciously storing information that eventually influence your action without you realising it.

So what do you call white, indian and coloured people born on the african continent?
