heh, I wish I could.. If there is one thing I hate in this world it is being drunk. I blame my uncle, that glorious bastard.
le sigh...
Yeah, i'd look cockeyed at anyone walking around talking about how proud they are to be white. Guess it's just one of those things.

It's all about the context surrounding how and when it's said.
I'd suggest being more specific about why you're proud of what you claim to be proud of. I'm proud that I passed on one grandfather's work ethic, and didn't pass on my other grandfather's alcoholism, that I was able to raise my girls to think for themselves, proud of my career which helped others. If I try to jam all that into "Proud to be Irish/White" it just seems kind of stupid to me. It's far too general to be meaningful.
So, when I hear anyone say proud to be (insert general race/skin tone/heritage) I just kind of chuckle at them and wonder what they're thinking.
I am neither proud, nor ashamed to be white, because I don't identify myself with the billion other white people who live vastly different lives than I do.
