I should add that my first love who for many years I compared women to was a Mexican. My best friend for 20 years is a Mexican. The minor prejudice comes in waves depending on the news and activism. We have a large Hispanic community here, I grew up in a school system where by my senior year I was a minority, but there is shit that just gets dumb here.

I have a minor prejudice against people who qualify racial prejudice based off of the number of that same minority they know/are friends with.
Example (FM Radio Safe):
Person A: Black people are stupid.
Person B: What's your problem?
Person A: It's cool. Some of my best friends are black.
I remember when I worked in customer service during my college years and the sheer number of white people willing to take the piss of black and Hispanic people because I am a pale-skinned Irish-American kid.

It is amazing that I see skateboarders all around Japan, they don't vandalize anything and their parents don't sue when they accidentally injure themselves. It is pretty cool.

That reminds me of another minor prejudice I have. People who exaggerate the amount of times something happens in order to try and give credibility to something they are trying to convey. Those people go hand-in-hand with the guy who knows a guy who can do such-and-such for cheaper.

and people who use 'literally' incorrectly. 'literally' only works if you are using a figure of speech but with the literal meaning. For example, "she is literally driving me up the wall" means that she is somehow physically driving you up a wall. "It is literally a stone throw's away" means that you have measured exactly how far you can throw a stone and whatever you are talking about is by some odd coincidence exactly that length away. The one I hear often and drives me up the wall (figuratively) is "I am literally starving". No you aren't. You are just really hungry.
Thanks for letting me get this off my chest (figuratively)

I gotta disagree, with this part, yojimbo:
...'literally' only works if you are using a figure of speech but with the literal meaning...
Figurative speech is not literal and should not be taken literally.
You are correct in pointing out that using the word "literally" where a figurative usage is employed is incorrect.
A figure of speech is a departure from normal, grammatical usage of words and their meanings.
A figure of speech almost always will include words which are deleted, added or those whose meanings are changed.
A figure of speech may be used to indicate emphasis in a passage as well as to give greater meaning than literal speech would otherwise give.
What we have are people who wish to intensify what they intend to say, but do not know how.
They end up sounding like Mike Tyson when he would work the word "ludicrous" into conversation.
A minor prejudice of mine is giant oversized logos on anything, particularly clothing.
It indicates the person wants the world to know they have misplaced priorities as to what is important...

In danger of looking like a wimp in Gvac's eyes, you are completely right. I was off on 'figure of speech'. I mean people who use 'literally' to just add stress ('literally starving') and not understanding that you can't have a figurative meaning when you say 'literally'.

Is it OK if I kinda have to give myself a quick 1 minute refresher course the 1st time I put the chopsticks back in my hand again? Because I'll get through dinner just fine, I just need that time alone to get my sea legs so to speak.

Chewing....I don't even mean chewing with your mouth open (that would be a major prejudice). Just the sound of food mixing with saliva in another person's mouth ruins my appetite. I need background noise, conversation, or to be sitting far enough away to not hear it. The weird thing is that it never bothered me until I was about 23 when I was dating a girl who said it bothered her. I started to pay attention to it and now it drives me insane.

refresher courses are completely acceptable.
it makes for fun dinner time convo as well.
It's like being in a great steakhouse and ordering it well done and smothered in ketchup to not at least give it a fucking go.
I thought of another one....
When in a theme park of any sort, I instantly find myself looking down on adults who are wearing the parks merch. Kids totally fine. But a dad in a mickey mouse shirt just reeks of silly.
I'm sure I will catch serious shit for this one... but FOR ME, I find it really weird when I see a guy wearing a baby carrier. Dave recently had to wear one with jules cause I couldn't with my belly. But, there is something that bothers me about a man with a baby knapsack. I see no issue with a stroller, just the baby slings.
Holy shit, I am a bitch.

I don't understand what about it bothers you. Is it that the guy should be carrying the kid? Is it that you object to physical contact between a child and his father? Why would Dave "have to" use it?
Baby slings look weird to me, but only because I didn't grow up looking at them.
I have seen much worse things (like oversized strollers, those odd telephone cord child leashes, or toddler shoes that squeak as the child steps) what is it about the sling?

It's weird, but I find a lot of asian foods harder to eat without chopsticks. I had Vietnamese at my house last night and had to eat the noodle soup with a fork because I don't have chopsticks at home. It was much harder than when I ate it at the place.

People that smoke cigarettes in public places. There are trash cans all over the place but that fucking butt is going to end up on the ground, apparently thats not litter. You dont look cool, it instantly makes chicks not hot and I want to punch the assholes in the face when they flick their shit.
Also people who walk their dogs and let them shit wherever and then just fucking walk off. God I hate you people.

I find the same thing. A lot of Chinese food is just easier with chopsticks especially if you share the dishes.
