It was a comedy show in our university tonight. I met two of ABG members tonight in the line. There was a black girl and an American-Iranian boy whom I met the first night in ABG.
"Hi, V.. " I said to that girl, but she didn't answer me. It was very rude and impolite. "Why didn't she answer me?" I asked myself.
Me: "Hi M.. How are you?"
He: "Hi. I'm good."
I had a very short conversation with that boy, but that black girl was very unfriendly to me. She started to talk very slowly to that boy. I could hardly hear her, but I heard some sentences.
"And my name is V.. that's why I didn't answer him," she said.
"I am sorry, I forgot your name. But you two look alike!" I said, but it made the situation worsen.
"Because we are both black? She is even from another country. She is ugly," she said while she was looking at that boy.
The boy smiled, but didn't say anything.
"Do you like it if I say that you two look alike?" she asked that boy.
"We do look alike! We are from the same country." I said, but she didn't like my answer.
She started mumbling something that I couldn't hear it. I thought that she saw me as an intruder there. She had a chance to go out with a good-looking boy like M..., and I could ruin all her plans by sitting next to them.
"I think that I should to the end of the line there," I said.
"No, you can stand here if you would like to," that boy said, but he also had this preference to leave them alone.
"Thanks. I prefer to stand at the end!" I said, and I left them.
"I didn't want to sit next to them. I didn't even want to enter the line from its middle. In addition, the other girl was ten times prettier than her in my eyes." I thought to myself while leaving them.
A pretty girl was sitting near me in the show who was with her friends. Her guy friend laughed the entire show.
The show was a kind of shock for me. I couldn't understand more than 50% of it. It was a lot. I could see some other faces that they were like me. However, there were so many Americans who laughed at every joke that he said. His jokes were mostly about Racism (insulting Indian, Chinese,...), sexuality, politics specially Obama, TV ads, US stores like Chick-fil-a,... and one joke about Muslims. I don't like to write about it here. I understood that Americans still have racism in their inner levels (hidden layers) of their society.
It is true that it was a comedy show, but it was no fun for me when he started to make a fun of Indian accents. Anyways, I never enjoyed the same comedy shows in Persian. I prefer a comedy with a deep long lasting impression on someone's personality in a good way. The only positive thing was that I figured out I can't understand African-American people's accent.
