My Dad the Scientist

Dad: Today when I was driving down Flatbush, a Jew asked me to give him a ride

Me: Ok, why is a stranger asking you for a ride and what does it matter that he was Jewish?

Dad: I was at a red light and he comes up to my window and says to me, "Hey are you Jewish? Can I have a ride?" and I say "I'm not Jewish." Then I lock the doors. One of my students told me that sometimes they stand there and ask for rides if they think you are Jewish.

Me: That's weird.

Dad: You could be Jewish. With your big nose.

Me: That's racist.

Dad: I've worked in Brooklyn for 25 years. I know a lot of Jews.

Me: It's still racist.

Dad: Well you have a Jewish nose. I don't know where you got it.
