I'm 18 and I was the only black kid in my pre-school. One day I was playing and a white girl came over and licked me. I began to cry hysterically while she tried to explain to the scolding teacher, "I thought she was made out of chocolate!" I heard that and got scared my arm was gonna melt where she licked it.
Wasn't I cute ;P )
