race with you without being asked? I went to the bar with one of my coworkers for the first time. I'm Asian and he's White. We had a decent time until we were out in the parking lot. That's when he pointed out how hot the three Asian girls in the bar were. I told him I didn't even notice there were any other Asians in the bar. He discreetly pointed to his left where they were walking.
