What’s your most recent shake your head from side to side?

Admittedly, I partly asked this question to tell you what happened to me today, but I’m curious about yours too.

Talking to a man today who is from England (it doesn’t matter what country he is from, but I do think it’s worthwhile he is not born and raised in America) he has lived in America many years.

In our brief conversation he tells me he’s a Democrat and has bumper stickers on his car, which he characterizes as risky in our mostly red city. I don’t know why he felt compelled to bring up politics.

Then he brings up immigration, and I say jokingly, “ah immigration, well you’re an immigrant right?”

He says something or other…”not the same as the Mexicans or the Muslims.”

Insert pause.

I warn, “careful I’m married to a Mexican.”

Processing.

He asks, “are you serious?”

I reply, “dead serious, I’m just trying to help you so you don’t say anything more that you might regret later.”

Idiot. He doesn’t know me at all. We were both in a Porsche Club meeting.
