i'm not going to explain it to you sh1thead, so go and read the entire thread before making a statement.

I travel a lot, actually. What I accused you of had nothing to with your religion. I'm about to ask Sully to chime in.

You've admitted you are part-Indian, and then you go and register the name "Inspector Jihad." Let's see, Brown person using the name "Inspector Jihad" and saying it doesn't pigeonhole them? Right... most Americans have NO idea the difference between a Pakistani, Indian, Egyptian, or Syrian. They just assume, and that's what I was getting at.

For some odd reason, you, Prole, and RabidMongoose took it as me saying Indians are all Muslim. I don't know what you think I meant that, but I most certainly do not. What I said was based on the fact that Brown people will get so self-righteous and say: "I'm not Muslim just because I'm brown, or I'm not Indian because I look Brown I'm a Muslim/Arab/Jew." So, you proved my point for me. Thanks.
so just cause some idiot cant tell the difference between 2 races...not 2 nationalities, but 2 races, I'm pigeonholing myself.
haha and according to you, it's self-righteous to correct someone of their ignorance. nice man.
Actually the point is that you're complaining of stereotyping as a brown dude while representing yourself as "Inspector Jihad". You can't exactly complain about the one thing and then go on to typecast yourself with a race or culture with your very name. You further help typify the race/culture with the negative connotations the word jihad has taken on. Thanks.

If you want to be viewed as an individual, start by identifying yourself as one. In any case you have no room to complain.

i dont know if you read the whole thread, but nowhere do i complain of stereotyping...infact i do a little bit of it myself by calling the dude a coconut.

and i picked the name for other reasons than my race. i jsut thought that it was funny. So cause some ingorant fool might misunderstand me, instead of him learning the differences, i should be walking on eggshells. fvck that man. thats his responsibility
And yet it's not the roommate's responsibility to figure out if there's a drain hole in the floor or not. Interesting.

Wrong.

I always find it funny how Indians hate to be pigeonholed on their culture and beliefs, but then you registered and posted under the name Inspector Jihad. Moron.

Why would the average Indian be pigeonholed with the name 'Inspector Jihad'? That makes no sense whatsoever. Most Indians are not even Muslim.

Has nothing to do with what the majority religion that Indians are. People hate having their culture pigeonholed, and using a name like "Inspector Jihad" is just asking for it. Never once did I accuse him of anything other than being a moron.

That makes no sense whatsoever. Why would someone from a culture that has very little to do with 'jihad' be pigeonholed with that name? You're making no sense whatsoever.

Nope, I make complete sense, you are just too dense to get it. Read sully's post or my subsequent ones.

I have already read the entire thread. People like you make me laugh. Do you think your posts are some sort of conclusive answer? Of course not.

There is humor to be found in this type of situation.

You don't need to explain it. I've already got it down. You have a hive mind and are extremely nationalistic when it comes to other people from your own country/descent. You are incapable of laughing at stupidity in any form if it involves your country or countrymen or people of your country's descent. In effect, you are an extreme nationalistic patriot.

Just because all bathrooms in India don't have drains doesn't mean he didn't do it because he's Indian. Come on! The reason all, or most, bathrooms in India don't have drain holes is the crushing poverty. You can't have a drain hole in your bathroom if your bathroom consists of a hole in the ground or a bucket you dump in the Ganges River.

Haha if you've ever been to India you would see how dumb your statement is. Its the country farthest from a hive mind outside of Europe and the United States.

I like to think of India as 'organized chaos'. It doesn't make sense to people who have only seen it movies but if you ever go there you will see exactly what I mean.

Indian people are getting mad because they get ragged on a lot. Like I said before I guess its the whole inherent human trait of attacking people who are generally rich and successful.

No, you don't make any sense whatsoever. You're advocating reducing people to lower themselves to the idiocy of people such as yourself.

As we have repeatedly seen on this forum, the hive mind tendency comes into the case of anyone anywhere else in the world lightly mocking any situation that is somehow involving India or Indians in any form.

Many Indians on this forum have shown that they are incapable of breaking away from the hive mind tendency. This tendency would be fairly similar to Americans refusing to admit that obesity in America is wrong and bad and refuse to lightly mock it. But they do. Indians can learn from this.

This roommate made a stupid mistake. End of story. It doesn't mean all Indians are stupid. It doesn't mean most Indians are stupid. Just this one Indian fellow.

Actually, he should remove any reference to Alabama in his profile if he does not want to be pigeonholed as some sort of uneducated redneck. Otherwise, we are free to reduce ourselves to another's idiocy level and freely assume that Mill is an uneducated redneck.

its not about his roommate, its about the fact that knowing that this guy is unaccustomed to this culture and yet making fun of it.
