I don't understand how this would be a race specific problem?
White people are too stupid to go inside of Homeplus or Emart to look for clothing?
Or is it that secretly other races don't wear underwear?
I think the title is misleading. Perhaps it might be more accurate to say;
How do I open the door at department stores? I'm white and for some reason my education missed this? |

I apologize if it sounded insane. It was a quote from the movie the Shining. |

I've just this month abandoned socks entirely on a tropical island where its always summer & plastic slippers are adequate for all occasions & my public highschool classroom is a barefoot-only zone.
Thanks Korea! I wouldn't be here without the credit I accrued there. |
I completely understand you. I live near the beach too and I love it. However I do like traveling to other beaches in different countries because they are all different in some small way. I just can't decide which one I like the most. |

You misunderstood. There is a thing going around now called "First World problems" or 'White people problems." This refers to minor inconveniences experienced by people from rich countries such as that of the OP or "Whole Foods ran out of arugula tonight." Juxtaposed to other problems in the world such as malaria or starvation first world problems seem quite petty and self absorbing. |

Yes, radcon, but that is human nature. Don't think that if those same people suffering from malaria and starvation were put in a first world situation that they wouldn't be complaining about the lack of arugula. |
