Today Jesse and I were at Borders in Beverly Hills, MI. He was off looking for some computer book or something and I was checking out the bargain cookbook section. I was crouched down looking at a book when a 40ish year old white woman approached me.
White woman: You look a lot like...have you seen that show 'Lost' on TV?
Jen: No. *not looking at her and praying that she does not say I look like Margaret Cho because if she does I will have to take her out at her fucking kneecaps*
WW: Well there is a woman on that show and you look just like her.
J: Why because I'm Asian? *standing up to look at her*
WW: Yes.
J: *laughs and walks away*
I decided I should have said: Really? That's odd because I was just wondering if you have seen that show 'Golden Girls'. You look a lot like Bea Arthur.
But that would have been an insult to Bea and we all know how much I dig her!!

Or "I have trouble telling white people apart, too. From right here, you kind of look like Hitler." Then you could have goose-walked away. Except that would have been hard in Borders.
