I have this damn problem: everyone who isn't white all look alike to me. Why is this? Like I would see some Mexicans and think "hey they look just like the Mexicans I saw yesterday" or something like that. Why is this? Does happen to anyone else? Do you see people of a different race as all physically the same? This can sound racist, but I really can't help this.

If you don't see them frequently they can blur together. I used to go to school with a lot of Asians and could tell the diff between Korean or chinese or Cambodian or Phillipino or Japanese.
now however they look the same cause I have been outta that environment for years.**************M*********

lol.......I don't really have that problem.
I do have a problem with understand people with accents, though. Doesn't matter what kind of accent it is......chinese, hispanic, italian, irish, arabic, indian, swahili, whatever. If it's really thick, I CANT UNDERSTAND. I remember a bunch of times when I'd be at a Chinese restaurant with my girlfriend, and she'd basically have to translate everything the waiter said to me. Obviously she could understand, so I know that the problem was mine. It must be a weakness in my hearing perception or something.In 1945, Adolf Hilter died and went to Hell. Satan asked, "why are you in Hell?" He replied, "I am responsible for the massacre of millions" Satan said, "well done, sit to the right of my throne." In 1953, Joseph Stalin died and went to Hell. Satan asked, "why are you in Hell?" He replied "I killed millions to stay in power" Satan said "good, sit to my left" 2010, Ronnie James Dio died and went to Hell, Satan asked, "why are you in Hell?" Dio replied, "Bitch, get the fuk off my throne!"

I deal with foreign nationals alot at work, and I have the toughest time understanding what they say. I know I come off as a dick, but I can't help them if I can't understand them.

I't ain't a white thing. All races have a tough time destinguishing people of a different race.
About the name thing, yes white people have fairly bland names but atleast your toungue doesn't cramp up when you pronounce them.
I would love to know where some of these people get their names and what the ***k their parents were thinking.

I would actually think white people would be easier to distinguish due to the large amount of ethnicities deemed white
just take hair color for example - red, black, blonde, brownI don't have a tuxedo that fits anymore because my chest and my biceps are too big.
