You are?  Wouldn't have guessed.

Storebought is too, IIRC.  I think that may be it.  This is a really white message board, even by Internet standards.

Yes it is.  Perhaps Dave could change it to black with white text?  That might be a little too extreme though.  It'd make all us white folks on the forum irrationally nervous.

Black background and white text would be easier on the eye so go for it.

I thought Sam Spade and Mike Assad said that they were too, maybe I'm wrong though.

I'm relatively sure that Sam's white, and Assad is Middle Eastern.

I doubt anyone on here is actually black (including you Mr. Woz).

P.S. Yay for Straha posting again!

Middle Easterners are considered White.

I don't think that's true for most of the country. Heck, I'm sure there are people out there who still consider Italians non-white.

According to the census.

Aren't people from the Subcontinent white, too?  Doesn't that make you white?

There's an "Asian" category, though by ancient heritage "white" (or, rather, Caucasian) would be the most accurate description for South Asians of the three broad categories.

No. Since Bangladesh is on the eastern end of the subcontinent, I'm as Dravidian as Aryan, whereas many Pakistanis look like Arabs. I'm classified as Asian, along with Chinese, Koreans, Japanese, and Vietnamese, which is somewhat odd.

Most Pakistanis look like North Indians, though there are a few Pushtuns that look Afghan/Iranian (well since they are).
