round eye

Slang invented by GIs during the Korean War and later popularized by Hollywood as a slang used by Asians and Asian Americans to describe the "white man" or Americans of European racial background. The claim that Asians or Asian Americans use this slang to refer to "white" folks is completely without merit. This slang is primarily used by White Americans and never by Asian Americans.

round robin

This has nothing to do with the bird. Robin in this expression is a corruption of the French ruban, meaning 'ribbon'.In 17th and 18th century France, there was a good deal for the average peasant to complain about, but complaining to the King in particular was not a good idea. The monarch's usual reaction to a petition from his subjects was to seize the first two or three signers and have them beheaded. Not wishing to lose their heads, but bent nonetheless on petitioning for justice, clever peasants came up with the expedient of signing their names on the petition in a circle, like a ribbon. That way, no one's name came first, and, assuming that there were hundreds of signatures on the petition, it was impractical for the King to punish all the signers. A similar method was adopted by disgruntled sailor in the 18th century British Royal Navy, another institution not known for welcoming criticism. Sailors often signed their names to a petition like the spokes of a wheel, so that no one of them could be considered the leader of a mutiny and hanged.

round lake

A town in northern Illinois with a population of about 30,000 people. Demographics are as follows: white (62%), hispanic (31%), black (3%), and other ethnicities make up the other 4%. As a person who grew up in Round Lake, I feel that I had a strong sense of pride in my community. People who hate on the town either don't live there, or are losers who are never happy, but too lazy to leave. The demographics are changing because of a growing minority population and the building of upper scale housing subdivisions. Every town has its problems with juvenile delinquents and drugs. These problems in Round Lake should not be attributed to the minority population. Just ask what Vernon Hills and Lake Forest kids do in their spare time. It's a town that has a worse reputation than it deserves.
