Never happen, because it's used as a slur.

I wouldn't say a slur... It's a far cry from n*ggers or anything like that. It's sorta like Canucks.

because Canada and Belize hasn't affected foreign policy the way we haev the past fifty years 😛

And Russia would be Europe, because the Capital is on the other side of the Ural Mountains...or so they rationalize 😉


What my friends brought up to me, is taht even Though I'm from the Mid East, I'm still "Asian". I got all o_0 since you are used to hearing Asian as East Asian type of thing
