Input: Text: before i start, i am stressing the fact that i am not actually a racist, but after today, who can be too sure whether or not i am.


in my 3u english class today, we were analysing the short story "the fall of the house of usher", by edgar allan poe. it was a group assignment, so i sat with my friend, his girlfriend and our subject of the story (lets call her may).

i was in need of a pencil sharpener, because i had misplaced mine. so may says to me, "i can let you use mine" and to try and convince me it was a worthy sharpener, she says "it was imported here from pakistan".


usually i am quick with a joke and have no issues getting people to laugh, but it is typically on the spot and usually involves no thought before i tell my joke. this was my downfall. after she tells me about her sharpeners origin, without hesitation, i say "no thanks, i don't need any terrorist sharpeners"..


fuck.. turns out she has pakistani heritage, everybody in the class of 35 went silent, and looked right at me. followed by "wow, you are such an asshole!" from her. i got the look of disapproval from my friends, and could overhear people talking about it. the supply teacher we had that day says to her "normally that would be uncalled for, but i think what you said was justified". 

all i could do was sit there and hold my hand to my face out of shame/embarrassment, while explaining to her that it was not my intent to get that kind of reaction, or to even say something stupid like that in the first place. she forgave me, and things went back to normal. but it is still a terrible feeling. i should start using my brain a little bit more.

TIFU by being racist.
