I was in basic training before I knew "boy" was an insult with racial tones.
I'm more tuned to it than before, but I had no idea of stiffler's issue here. Hell, I couldn't have told you that Patel was a common Indian name before reading this thread.

And no one in their right mind is expecting you to do anything different. And I might treat a situation totally different from you. Just like someone will be offended if they say "God D&&m" in a sentence and I will not. You have to find your place in this and when someone chooses to behave in a certain way it is up to them to be aware that someone might react differently to their actions.
