Yep
But you should really give people the benefit of the doubt instead of collectivizing everything, when you're dealing with individuals.

They wouldn’t be stereotypes otherwise.

Absolutely. Let each person stand on their own merits. Just don't be surprised if you end up finding yourself having a 'bigoted' understanding if they conform to stereotypes.

Loves Chicken, watermelon
I’ve never quite understood this particular stereotype.
Who Doesn’t like fried chicken and watermelon? Those are staple foods across the whole south since the scots brought chicken frying here.
It definitely isn’t confined to one race. And watermelon is delicious.
Reminds me. I was at a party one night at a friends house. There had been a bunch of food, and we had boiled crawfish. I had carved a watermelon. Fun was had.
Well about 2 am, most of the people had left, i’m In the kitchen and a few people come in. 2 white guys and a black guy. Friends of the host or something.
Black guy asks if there is any food left.
I had just put up what was left of the food, so I knew what they had, and told him, “we’ve got fried chicken and watermelon.”
And he gets that look on his face. You know the look. When they want to be “offended and outraged.”
So I laugh and say “just hold up”
Open the fridge and pull out a box of fried chicken and a bowl of watermelon.
After a moment of tension we all burst out laughing. Things go so much smoother if people are just chill.

Of course there is. How do you think the stereotypes came about in the first place?
You left off a couple big ones though.

False. I don't know many Chinese that make jokes and, as far as I know, none have made pee pee in my Coke.

Anyone who says otherwise is kidding themselves.

Leave the Indians and their alcohol problems out of this. We already took their land and so they have good reason to drink.

What I've never understood as why it is seen as offensive to say that a person or even a group of people love a certain food. Makes no sense to me. And no one loves fried chicken (specifically Popeyes) more than me. From my observations, white people tend to love fried chicken just as much, but black people talk about eating it a lot more.

Asian drivers
Dear god, I never appreciated how awful these people are at driving until I spent time in houston. A few of the young men are like Tokyo Drift. ALL the rest are a sick combination of slow, unaware, and unable to improvise. So you get 60mph in the left lane. Oblivious to the world around them, and they’re never even playing on their phones, which makes it even sadder. They don’t understand the dimensions of their vehicles or how to maneuver around obstacles. They can’t anticipate anything. All they can do is go straight forward, slowly, and then stop to think about the next move.

If you close your eyes, does it almost feel like you're driving in Baton Rouge?
With your eyes closed, you'll certainly be driving like Baton Rouge.
