"Hi. I'm looking for some scissors please."
"Hey, Joe! Come back here and show this white kid where the scissors are!"
"I'm not white."
"You sound white."
Joe, the African American assistant, came back and showed me the scissor section. I bought a pair and then left one of the more colourful Jewish stationers in New York. So continues my experience in the world's biggest immigrant city.

Sounds like a case of Grapheme-color synesthesia whitey.
Audio synesthesia maybe.
