Because, seriously. Rudeness isn't a genetic trait. I mean, I've met more rude white people than any other race, and been treated worse by white people in general, but that's just because those particular people were assholes... had nothing to do with them being white, or brown, or purple.

Bausch, it may just be that the cashier chose not to say 'hello' for reasons COMPLETELY UNRELATED TO YOU. Chill the fuck out. Who still stews over some random cashier "snubbing" them over a month later?
Yes, it's possible. I just had bad vibes from this cashier, as if they didn't like me and were being rude at me in particular for some reason. I just got very bad vibes. I'm not stewing about it, I was reminded by the incident because I was reading a topic about being discriminated against and I thought perhaps that was the issue instead of being just "snubbed".

And also, it hasn't been a month. It's been 15 days.
