Know what Im saying? And now, a word from Jasmine, CJ's interpreter. I think our son is having an identity crisis. CJ? NAH! This month, he's talking , dressing and acting like he's balck. Last month, he was on the phone telling someone he is white! Its all true. He's mixed! Nobody is "mixed" You are whatever you think you are at the moment. Our self-image is very accurate. so...in the shower this morning, you were - Frank Sinatra. now you get it.

Oh wow. I think I must have missed something major. Last I remember Jasmine, she was a genius baby! But I guess it makes sense she grew up. CJ’s looking fresh!

It shouldn’t have to be so hard to figure out what you are. And others will pigeonhole you anyway.

I’m an American (United States variety) by birth (Illinoisan, specifically), Dutch and German by ancestry (although I identify more strongly with the German half), and I’m presently a Californian (by choice). At various times I’m also an actor, a singer, and/or an artist, and I’m often an office worker (gotta pay the bills somehow).
My answer to the question “What are you?” depends entirely upon the context.

Love the comic but he’s not necessarily talking, acting and dressing like he’s black. Non-blacks do that too and only a small number of blacks behave that way.
Paying Too Much Attention Premium Member almost 12 years ago
That’s a good point, Shyygirl27. That’s Robb Armstrong showing his age. But in his defense, his parents probably think the same thing anyway, so it works. Actually, his dad seems like he probably gets it.
