I agree with you in terms of that. All I'm saying is that the whole "act black" and "act white" thing gets on my nerves. Guess it does since I was known in middle/high school for being an "oreo" (even though I am mixed anyways) just because I don't act "gangsta".

In a way I think of it as a compliment (since they said it because they felt I dressed appropriately, talked well, etc.) but it's still dumb overall imo.

Anywho, this thread should have been locked a while ago
