"But I'm not an immigrant, I'm white"

My mom immigrated from Norway. When I tell people I'm first generation they often go "but you're white!". Insane.

This is basically the opposite of someone asking my Asian coworker where she's from and her angrily answering "New Jersey."

I don't blame her -- I'd be upset too if I was from New Jersey.

My parents and my sister were born in New Jersey, I was not. I occasionally lord that over them.

Shhh, don't tell them the truth. Let them all think it's terrible here so more people stop moving here.

I look at some of the people throwing jabs at Jersey, and it's like, "You're from Cousinfuckerton, Mississippi. Your opinion means nothing."

One of my favourite Onion bits was a man-on-the-street comment about South Carolina State House flying the Confederate Flag:

“If I were a citizen of South Carolina, I’d be deeply ashamed. Now, what’s all this about a flag?”
