Now we know not to talk about pedos

i'm not racist because i married a black person.

sounds a little more convincing than i'm not sexist because i married a woman? or not.
 
I stopped somewhere halfway through (truly), but to answer your opening question, no: the joke was vile, but the follow-up explanations were the real issue. Variations of, "I'm not a racist, I just feel the way I do because blacks are entitled, arrogant, lazy pieces of shit." (That's a paraphrase, but not an exaggeration.)

Alright, how about the rest of the comment? Your father is a low life piece of shit? How about all of the elderly folks I volunteer for who are stuck in their generational racism? Everyone of them needs to be written off, they are just low lifes with nothing else to offer the world?

Yeah, her comment sucked but I'm not sure it can be used to label her a racist, not in the KKK burning crosses way, I mean. There are plenty of people who don't agree with the customs of other cultures, are they all racists too? I'm just wondering where the fine line is between ignorance and actual racism. I've met racists who were only so because it's how they were raised, it's what they were taught. Should every one of those people be written off as some sleazy low life?

There are people whom you are friends with on this very board who I have witnessed saying things like "all black people are black people but not all black people are niggers." (Paraphrased) I've seen people here call eastern indians "pakis" and bitch about how their skin smells like curry and their hair is greasy. Why no outrage over their comments? Let me guess, you just didn't happen to see those comments, right? :rolleyes:

And how about Nipples with his shitty jokes? Yet here you are chumming it up. Is it a double standard or did you just happen to miss every single racially charged thing the guy has ever posted?

in fairness, at least a person would be the same species.. women though! whilst i support mixed species fornication (upto a point) mixed species marriage... :eek:
 
Maybe I'm the uncool one. I don't dig that brand of humor, ever. Maybe I just can't "take a joke?" :confused:

It's not whether or not you can take a joke that I am questioning. (You being the general 'you', not you in particular.) It's my annoyance over accepting one person for doing the exact same thing you (general you again) condemn another person for doing.

I answered your question. I didn't read the rest of your post. I didn't read past the first sentence and a half of this one. I don't owe you a response. For anything else, feel free to shop elsewhere.

Right, so you're totally ok with double standards, then. I can't say I'm surprised in the slightest.
 
I am starting to think Perg didn't stop at pissing in your cornflakes and perhaps moved on to dropping a Cleavland steamer in them.

Is that a perpetual motion machine in your mouth or are you just happy to see me?

You bore them as much as I do December. It's a gift. Don't try to read much more into it. I think he praised your vehemence, though.
 
*shrug*

A lot of people find a way to like busybody. I did for years. Also, I occasionally find racist humor funny. I guess I'm not cool any more.


It came to my attention recently that a longtime member of this board was under the impression I was black. I'm not sure how this could have happened, but I assume the hundreds of times busybody has called me a nigger probably contributed.

The thing about Grace's "joke" is that I did not think she meant it to be a joke. She played it off that way once she saw the reaction to it, but I think it's safe to say her comment represented something like her true feelings towards poor black women.

she struck me the same way.

The happy to see me part made no sense, however I googled perpetual motion machine and I am interested in what I found, thanks for the reading material, even though it was born of your apparent new affinity for being cunty.

Eh, it's a thankless job being this awesome.

When was Michelle Obama ever poor?
 
Wow, too bad I missed all the drama, though this thread was perfect entertainment for a lazy day off spent in bed with my laptop.

And the fact she actually thought Memphis Man was hot? WTF, his disgusting personality and nastiness aside, if that's really him in his avatar, he looks like an inbred, ugly hick.

That shoulda been the first clue of her utter desperation.

There are really big parts of me that are experiencing shameful amounts of schadenfreude(sp?) right now, and I'm trying really hard to repress it. She rubbed me the wrong way when she came here, and that post about black women really turned me off her.

But I'd been trying to implement a philosophy Sonny espoused a while back, where basically if someone I respected seemed to like somebody I wasn't fond of, it should make me give them a chance. I've also been trying to be less bitchy in general (not working too well). So although I didn't try and get friendly with her and mostly avoided her I also kept the snark down...and there was SO MUCH SNARK I WANTED TO LET OUT.

In conclusion, I blame Sonny, I should always be mean to people I want to be mean to.

I never liked her either, she seemed like an entitled, bitchy cunt. I don't think I posted to her once, though I had to stop myself from starting a thread ripping on her location: "Your world was too mainstream...so I created my own"...PUKE


I'm enjoying this so much it might be a sin.

Me, too :D
 
You getting all serious on me now? I'm revoking your membership.

For the record, if we're going to be all serious and shit, The closest I ever came to anything like cybering with Grace was a discussion of what we both like sexually and a few pictures back and forth. I never skyped with her or IMed with her. I've emailed and PMed a fair amount.

Not being all serious, just wanted to set the record straight.

She rubbed me the wrong way since day one.

Shut the fuck up you long winded cunt.
