...potatoes are xenophobic?

...potatoes are xenophobic?

No. Not to my knowledge. Xenophobialand is a poster on these boards who is from Idaho.

The real answer is GOOGLE

...potatoes are xenophobic?
I don't know. I've never really asked one before. Then again potatoes don't talk much.

I've never really asked one before.

This is exactly what's wrong with people today. They are afraid to interact with those who are different from them. Tsk, tsk. ;)

Then again potatoes don't talk much.

Hey, no stereotyping. That's not cool. If you really got to know the potatoes they're actually really nice. I have them for dinner all the time. They're really quite obliging. They don't even complain when you bite into them.

It's because they hate anyone who is different. They talk, but only amongst themselves.

Be delicious?

yes, that is their gift to us, but what have they done to deserve our wrath? (in a 'we think they're delicious' kind of way)
I say let the potatoes live, eat rice instead. ;)

By being delicious, they make us desire them. If they weren't so suculent, then we'd leave them alone- plus they don't put up any defence and rot and smell if not eaten. They're almost BEGGING to be eaten that we do.
