I once worked with a Puerto Rican. I'm not being racist, he literally couldn't go more than an hour without reminding someone he was from Puerto Rico. He tried playing it like some kind of race card at least once a day. One time I heard one of my coworkers say loudly from across the room "No, being Puerto Rican has nothing to do with it. I don't like you because you're stupid."
