Oh I soooo hated that "other" box.
I laughed when I read that, but then snarled a bit remember it.
To add insult to injury, my eyes are three different colors. One is half green and half brown (literally split right down the middle). The other is blue. (It's the rarest eye color in the world, to date I've never met another person the same).
They don't have an "other" for eye color, so they'd always write it in.
Me, some other race, with some other eyes.
