Actually, yes he is.

And you know I'm not blasting on you, just giving you something to sit on for a second. Later, QD.
I will never sit on anything you give me.....

Just kiddin man. I feel you. And no, it doesn't cause my bills not to get paid and it doesn't cause my family hardships, but by definition, that's not what a pet peeve is all about. I know you are aware of that.

I agree with you about the South African turned African American thing though. The reason I said that was because a few years back there was some drama that got created because a white kid from South Africa marked on one of his tests for school that he was African American. He was, but he was also Caucasian. I am trying to google it now.
