    It would be "racist" to expect a car like that at a mexican restaraunt. I said I'm not racist.

    Lol, would it be racist to assume that I would have 22s on my car, just cuz I'm black? Not callin' you racist, just pointing out the common misnomer made when people use ironic instead of coincidence. Not tryin' to start an e-fight, so here...

    If I were expecting it to be there, it would be a coincidence.

    But the title states that I wouldn't be expecting it, therefore it's ironic.

    Eh?

    Is it wrong that I can tell a black person drives that Integra by its wheels?

    Not quite, for it to be ironic, something has to have conveniently happened that contradicts the expected, if it's unexpected it doesn't really count as anything, just a random happening. Kind of like if a clown just burst into your job with a tuna sandwich, it's just random. "Situational irony is the disparity of intention and result: when the result of an action is contrary to the desired or expected effect." This definition is straight from wikipedia, lol, the most reliable source on the net (and that was an example of verbal irony).

    If that comment is directed specifically at my integra, yes. Because you should think I'm mexican, because a mexican bought the wheels. It's just been very low on my priority list to change them considering the tires have a lot of tread left on them.

    Sorry then. Go back to Buford Highway and trade them for some stock wheels. The car will look infinitely better.

    Nah, I'm saving up for something really sexy, in a size a little bit larger. In the mean time, I'm debating painting them black and leaving the lip silver, but not sure on this.

    Many stereotypes are based firmly in reality. If many individuals from different ethnic groups did not just so (happen) to enjoy or partake in many of the same endeavors than we would have no clear definition or any concept of a "stereotype" in regards to various ethnic groups.

    I have just personally witnessed many black people riding in cars where the wheels themselves, cost more than the rest of the vehicle.

    And I am not sure if ANY ethnic group period, can compete with a mexicans ability to completely destroy an import, and make it a total loss without even crashing it.

    Asian Americans usually build very clean imports. Unless they are one of those 3rd world asians from Cambodia or Thailand. Then you could not separate them from a mexican.

    White people rule the domestic world. And every ugly automobile our great nation can pass off as "quality" or "better". They are also kings of slow trucks with massive lift kits as if to emulate some kind of white childhood fantasy of driving Bigfoot. The hummer market was designed for these individuals and has now spiraled into a laughing stock, yet they remain...blocking traffic and pissing everyone off with impunity to pick up their little darling from soccer practice, with the Bush/Cheney sticker still fading on the bumper.

    its OK as long as you hate everybody.

    By the way, I'm going to be the douche bag that says you used the word "ironic" incorrectly.
