Hey, at least they ask you if you're Jewish. A couple of weeks ago, one of the Lubavichers simply approached me with a big smile and a shofar, exclaiming, "Hello, my Jewish friend!"

Whilst still living at my parents' house, I had a couple of Mormons stop by and asked me to talk about Christ with them, or something.

"I'm sorry, but no-one in this house is Christian." They were polite, so I was polite back at 'em, no problem.

Without missing a beat, one of them says "Oh, are you Jewish?"

*blink*blink* "Er, are you asking me that because I'm swarthy (I had a tan at the time) have a big nose and I live in a nice neighborhood?"

They both turned white, apologized profusely and couldn't get off the porch fast enough. Nice lads, mind you. Just clueless and tactless. :)
