Ignorance is tolerable, but to the extreme, it just drives me up wall. Of course, I'm being a total and complete hypocrite, because I'm one of the most ignorant people you shall ever meet.
Back on topic...this particular entry has to do with people's knowledge of India. I keep getting asked stupid questions about India that any dimwit should know.
"Do they have electricity in India?"
"Where do you sleep...do they have houses?"
"So does your family have to live in little huts? Why don't you just buy a bigger hut for them?"
"Do they use money...or do they just trade stuff like we used to?"
Honestly! What the hell! YES, we have electricity, no, not ALL of India is a wasteland filled with savage huts, and YES, YES, YES WE HAVE MONEY. IT'S CALLED RUPEES, DAMN IT.
And these are coming from people I would expect to know, ranging from college students to 50 year old women! That's like asking a Jew how they're doing, recovering form the Holocaust (hopefully, they're not a holocaust survivor...), or something!
Oh well. I guess people are just ignorant, blumbering fools. Hmf.

lmao, wow... "Do they have electricity in India?" Well, duh! Otherwise, it'd be like outsourcing to the Amish! How else do you think they operate the phone lines for Customer Support? Er, sorry, stereotyping there. I do that too much...
ROFLMAO! Sarah, I was totally going to say that but I was lazy.
lol, stereotyping's wrong, but it's just so darn fun
What's funny is that all my cousins are computer-engineers! In Dubai!
And I DO know an indian there who works for a telemarketing thing...TWO!
Omg... so, is it rude stereotyping if it's true??
Well...I don't really care if people make Indian stereotypes about me, because it's more of a compliment than anything else, lmao.
