Has some other pretty good nuggets there; esp complaints about the cost of gas and gasp, shock horror the lack of big box stores and 2-day shipping.

    Emphasis mine.

    I also experience weekly microaggressions in the form of rude looks and comments about my shaky German — even though I still know enough to understand when I'm being talked about.

        Microaggressions in a sentence like "X caused me microaggressions" became a euphemism and verbal tool used by people - particularly bad people - to say "X really made me fucking angry".

      It's like the boomers who go ballistic when they hear someone speaking in another language because they're paranoid that they're being gossipped about.

        My spouse and I speak a foreign language together and in the defense of white racist shitheads (???) we are usually trash talking them. They also don’t know that I suck at this foreign language so I use it more to make myself look like a genius (I’m white).

          My cousins would all speak English but whenever they want to be racist towards whites, blacks, or Mexicans they’ll switch to our language lol
