I'm white!

Nifty! I’m black! You learn something new every day.

Dammit! Just when I thought that I was FINALLY going to have some fun on a Saturday night!

What do you know, I’m black. Well, the hairdressers always said my hair was remarkably nappy (read: don’t blame me that your hair looks like an afro after I cut it) for a pale girl.

Interestingly, my Scandinavian immigrant husband is also called “black”. This is Mr. Pale, Blond, Blue Eyes. Hmmm…perhaps the conspiracy also expands to include all immigrants!! Come on, surely some immigrant Dopers can provide some data points to start our own addition to this conspiracy theory!

Even.

White.

::heaves a really soulful sigh::

Wow… I’m newly black. Well, maybe not “newly” - I am, after all, half Sicilian. :wink:

Maybe the Celtic heritage in me is why I burn so easily… muses

Hmm, my fifth digit is even, so that means…

re-reads thread, boggles that this hasn’t been done already

[Steve Martin]I was born a poor black child.[/Steve Martin]

Even, and if I was any whiter I’d be a Canadian.

Hey, I’m black. This is so wonderful. Now nothing in my life is my fault.

Appropriate sig you’ve got there…

Mine is even and I’m a blond-haired, blue-eyed Viking.

Can’t wait 'til my 'fro is full-grown! :stuck_out_tongue:

Before reading this thread, I never even suspected. I was foolishly misled by my pink skin and Soviet features.

But now, I know the truth.

Sammy Davis and me.

I’d post a more detailed account of all these things I’m feeling but I’ve got a wild craving for some fried okra and some gefilte fish.

I’m really disappointed.
Not because I just found out that I’m black (yep, my 5th digit is even and I’m actually white), but because I never heard this particular UL before. I thought I knew them all.
I gotta read Snopes more often.

Every number of my (Canadian) Social Insurance Number is even. Every single one.

If you know what I look like, you’re probably pissing your pants laughing right now.

Actually, I just thought of something. I’ve got zeroes all over in there, so maybe I’m transparent? That would explain a lot.

:Sigh: Keeping track of race through SSN is an American plot. You should be far more worried with the fact that your country is is secretly ruled by a crown that has fooled the world into thinking the sun has set on the British Empire.

Sorry, Doc, but Canada hasn’t been ruled by the Crown for a good many years now.

I wonder if I’ll be black or white when I get my American SSN?

If you have a choice, go for black, Ginger. Apparently nothing in black people’s lives are their fault.

:eek: You’ve fallen for their propaganda? Next you’ll tell me the Masons are just a club with charities, funny hats, and tiny cars.

The crown pretends-*pretends*-not to rule. In reality, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Canada are firmly under the royal thumb. There are subtle signs. Some are hidden in the speeches of government officials. Many are conveyed in the gestures and dress of the Queen. But the most blatant is this-Yorkies, Smarties, and Flake bars are all readily available in Canada but can be obtained only at specialty stores in the USA.

Does this mean that I will have to stop eating mayonaise?

Yeah, all we Blacks have to do is be Black and die.

A day or so ago (when I was white and ignorant of my SSN race indicator), all I had to do was eventually buy the 4th season of Buffy on DVD.

::Sigh::

I miss those days…
