Ten Things I Don't Understand About Black People
>>> Casual Misanthropy
By staff writer JD Rebello
December 11, 2005
But first, a disclaimer...
Listen. I’m not racist. So if you’re looking at the title and thinking, “Oh boy here he goes, get your ALCU handbooks and humorless views on life out, we’re writing a letter,” save it. Yes, I make my fair share of jokes about African-American Human Beings, but the way I see it, how am I any different from those Original Kings of Comedy-type whose entire schtick consists of variations of “White people walk like this...black people walk like this...” jokes? I’m not. Furthermore, if I’m allowed to say this shit unfettered, it provides yet another aspect of our culture that the two races have in common. Personally, I think of myself as a fucking pioneer. I like black people. I have black friends. I enjoyed Baby Boy. I’ve watched porn involving black people (either that or the lighting was bad). So in conclusion, if you read this column and still think I’m a racist, please don’t read me anymore. It’s that simple. Oh yeah, and go fuck yourself.
And away we go...
1. The N-word.
Let’s talk about it. I know it’s a horrible word, something akin to dropping the C-bomb around a chick. I guess what baffles me is it’s cool for blacks to say it to each other.
To continue my parallel, isn’t this something like one girl saying to the other: “Oh is that Sarah? Is that my cunt Sarah? Cunt, get over here! Damn cunt how you been? It’s been ages.” They don’t. Now fine, you consider it a sign of solidarity and that’s cool. (By the way, I loved being able to write “cunt” that many times and it’s not even all that offensive given the context.) I guess my question is: I know whites shouldn’t say it to blacks, but is it okay if we say it to other whites? Like if I met my white friend Timmy and was like, “Hey nigga, want to go to the Gap? No don’t invite Steve. I hate that nigga. Oh nigga please.” Can I say that without black guys giving me the old stink-eye? I think that should be okay. But I figured I’d get the “it’s all good” from you first.
"Fashizzle my dizzle? C’mon Snoop, in 1993 that talk could get you killed in the LBC. I’m disappointed, black guys, that you let this happen on your watch."
2. Why are black girls so damned loud?
The reason I ask is I’m afraid the affirmative action people are going to get involved with espionage, and now we got Monique and Shaniqua sneaking into Kim Jong Il’s palace in the middle of the night and suddenly being all, “OH SCHNAP. MOTHERFUCKER I BROKE A MOTHERFUCKING NAIL! SHANIQUA CHECK THIS MOTHERFUCKING SHIT OUT!” I’m just concerned for the welfare of this country.
3. Black guys, do you really like white girls or do you do that just to piss white guys off?
Because, I’ve had this happen where a cute white chick gets with some crazy ghetto black dude. And it pisses me off. Not that I’m against interracial dating, that’s fine. I just wonder, because black girls don’t really like white guys. You have to realize, too, white girls are kind of insane. Seriously, they spend ridiculous amounts of money on The OC DVDs, I don’t think they truly understand the plight of the black man.
4. Are you guys really still mad about slavery?
I mean, geez it was over a hundred years ago. And it’s not like you personally were held slaves. Yeah, slavery sucked but Jews still don’t piss and moan about the Holocaust. Shouldn’t there be a statute of limitations on bitching about something that happened over a century ago and not even directly to you?
Okay don’t look at me like this wasn’t going to get insensitive at some point. Sometimes we have to confront the hard questions here at Casual Misanthropy.
5. Do you guys really like pig’s feet?
Because it looks disgusting. If you like the taste that’s fine, it just baffles me is all. How about cow uterus? Is that any good? Dog pelvis? And what the fuck is a chitling?
6. Do you guys really think D.L. Hughley is funny?
Because I’ve watched a few of his comedy specials, and honestly he’s about as funny as a documentary on child abuse. But I see black guys in the audience just whooping it up.
And that leads me to my second question: What is wrong with black audiences at black comedy specials? Nobody just laughs, it’s like a full body dry heave, like they’re trying to hack up a Toyota Land Cruiser. I get scared, that’s all.
7. Is everything really racist?
I hear this all time. “I asked for no tomatoes. There’s tomatoes on this. That guy’s a racist!” Do you really mean this or is it just an easy way to call somebody out? You know who I think is a racist? George W. Bush. Seriously, I realize nobody’s said this yet, but his reaction post-Katrina leads me to only one inexorable conclusion: George Bush doesn’t care about black people. Seriously, I know I’m the first person to say this. Oh, hi Mike Myers. And you brought your friend, Beating an Obvious Joke Into the Ground. Let’s go to Chris Tucker.
8. What rapper is it okay to like?
And which rappers are too watered down for lame-ass white folk? Oooh, can I guess? Ok. I think you’re cool with DMX. And I guess Jay-Z, even though honestly all his songs essentially sound like “Uh, Rockafella uh uh...” and so on and so forth. Is Eminem okay? Well, let me rephrase. If he wasn’t white, would he be okay? I think 50 Cent blows. I’m not scared of you, 50 Cent. Bitch ass hoe. How about Vanilla Ice? Just kidding. Let me know. By the way, black guys, how come rap music sucks now? Huh? Seriously, the two pioneers of early-90s gangsta rap have been relegated to Coors Light commercials and coming up with incomprehensible lingo for Eugene Levy to spout in the next Queen Latifah catastrophe. Fashizzle my dizzle? C’mon Snoop, in 1993 that talk could get you killed in the LBC. It’s depressing, that’s all. I’m just kind of disappointed, black guys, that you let this happen on your watch.
It just seems like all rap music nowadays is like, “Look how rich I am. I get mad bitches. Check out this bling.” Although if rap survived Cam’ron, I think it can survive anything. God, Cam’ron sucked.
9. How come you all look alike?
Just kidding. But seriously, do you think all white people look alike? Because, no offense, I think all blacks look alike. Same with Asians. Even Jews. People from Connecticut? They ALL look alike. Same with gays. And pretty much any minority group I may have forgotten. You know who looks a lot alike? Portuguese people who write shitty college humor columns. See, can’t get mad now, because I self-deprecated. Self-deprecation. It’s like a life jacket.
10. Did you really spend $200 on shoes?
And what does Avirex mean? Those seem like awfully big pants, is that really necessary? Do you spend more on laundry? How come you guys don’t have to fold the bill on your baseball hats? And why is the tag still on there? Sorry, I’m trying to get as many questions in as possible. Please don’t hate me. I love black people. Fresh Prince!
I figure now’s a good time to pay tribute to Richard Pryor, who died yesterday at 65. Say what you want, Pryor did more for race and comedy than anyone of his or any era.. You could even argue he was the greatest comedian of all time. A few months back, I found myself sucked into a Comedy Central re-airing of his from the seventies. Here’s the point: I never enjoy comedy from the seventies. Even George Carlin’s old stuff seems tame.
Anyway, I couldn’t let today’s column go by without saying something. So there you go. I sincerely think he would have enjoyed today’s column. At least I hope.

hilarious...you identified some of the most true "stereotypes" in a humorous fashion, i dig it...especially numbers 1, 2, 4-7, 8 and 9, and 10. oh, and 3.
Wow...I was expecting this to be funny. Maybe it was...when it was written. I hope your writing has gotten better by now.
wow you r such an asshole.
This is what I think
I don’t know why blacks use the N word. I would like to sit down with the first black man that ever decided to call another black man by that word after all the pain and hurt that it caused our ancestors, and ask him what the hell he was thinking. I mean, was that a joke??? Cause it sure as hell aint funny!!! It is NOT a term of endearment, and when I’m called that I take it offensive…whether you’re black or white. I’m far from ignorant (and I have the degrees to prove it), so do not address me that way. I really wish that word would just go away!
Black girls are loud, because we are a product of our environment. I’m not a loud person, I have a very introverted personality, and if someone can’t sit down and have a sensible conversation with me like a human being then I refuse to talk to them; however, my mom is EXTREMELY loud and my grandmother is even LOUDER! I feel like sometimes it’s a way of dealing with their emotions. When they are upset and want to voice their opinions they yell, maybe it makes them feel more powerful or in control, because to look sad, or hurt or disappointment, or god forbid, you decide to let someone see you break-down and cry (like a woman should be able to), is a sign of weakness…and we have to be “STRONG BLACK WOMEN.” When you’re busy raising 8 children on your own (as was the case of my grandma in Jamaica), there’s no room for weakness. You’re holding the family together alone, and you gotta keep it together. Then, I think my mom, from being around it so much just kinda adopted that behavior. She’s changing now tho…there was a point where I was like that in relationships when I got mad, but I’ve come to realize how ridiculous it is…and it only makes you angrier!
I think that black guys actually like white women. I think that any guy can like any woman, regardless of race and vice versa. Some people have very specific preferences, and some don’t. I don’t know how true it about black women being easy (although I hear it A LOT!), but I honestly don’t think that’s it. At least not when they commit to them for a lot time and make it know that their together. I don’t know of any black man that would be proud to wife a slut! What I do think, is that white women ARE more giving…more giving of themselves, their finances, and their support. Sometimes a man needs you to be submissive so he can feel like he’s in control…he’s the head..THE BOSS!! We all know how guys like that ego stroked! Black women aren’t as willing to be submissive, and sometimes (and this is from personal experience, I’m not trying to stereotype black women), as in the case with my mom, I feel like we’re quicker to argue and belittle them and make them feel less than their worth. Some men just don’t want the attitude!
D.L. Hughley is TERRIBLE. I'm glad someone else realize how God fucking awful he is. The fact that he's a highly successful comedian makes me ashamed for comedy.
why do black rappers just say their names, and that is a song?
Mike Jones, Mike Jones!
This is the, this is the, this is da Carter, say go DJ, cause thats my DJ!
and so forth
so with you!!! rap music sucks and lacks substance
but that was pretty funny
if u think all rap music lacks substance check out rappers like atmosphere mos def talib kweli mf doom and a bunch others u may not know them cause they dont get on tv an shit but they are wayyyyy better than the mainstream im black an i dont even watch bet or mtv anymore just underground stuff cause its 200 times better
Could you please add some punctuation to your comment? Is there a rapper named "atmosphere mos def talib kweli mf doom"?
Very true.
I've heard a couple rappers who rap with substance. Very few, though. Immortal Technique, for instance.
Mike Jones is hella weak, Lil Wayne does not say that in any of his choruses, and Go DJ is fucking tight.
Here is another question for your next column... Do black people really read PIC? I would think that spending $200 on shoes, trying to write the next great rap album, and bitching about slavery one wouldn't have a whole lot of time to dedicate to reading weekly comedy columns!
Well not anymore
you said that blacks still bitch about slavery, because after slavery there was still a lot of racism if you didnt notice like the stupid kkk.and the holocaust was 10 years,wow a long time .thats why there was a civil rights movement you dumb whiteboy. and if rap is so bad why do yo listen to it and know about all of the artits. i dont hear you talkin about wack ass rock n roll.
Wow, this is why the term nigger is used so freely, stupid ass black people like you! I'm pretty sure with the holocaust an entire race was trying to we wiped off the face of the earth. With slavery, they were breeding the biggest strongest black people to have good workers. Now look at how good they are at sports. Do you think slavery is the reason 99% of black males are now lazy as shit? I mean, I'm not complaining that you won't go out and get good jobs (other then professional athletes) heck someone's gotta wash my truck.
The holocaust was a truly terrible thing but slavery was actually
one big holocaust that lasted for years. They did not breed
slaves yes they raped the women and let children be born but
they also did their best to kill them off. One guy got a slave shiip
caught some slaves got insurance on them and then burned the
boat alive. A lot of people are ignorant of the injustices that still
go on today that make slavery hard to get over. I mean I am
mad about black people who want to act ignorant, lazy, and loud
too. But the holocaust was gas chambers were more humane
because the people did not have to live their whole lives being
tortured and abused. More people on both sides should take
classes before they speak.
PS. It is very difficult for even an educated black person to get a good job we have a lot to proove. We have to be almost twice as qualified and even then stereotypes still follow. I have a great job but I am the only black person in the entire company.
so basically, the "termination" of millions of jews wasn't as bad as slavery.. i get it..
i'm not jewish by the way.
look at this
holocaust: http://isurvived.org/Pictures_iSurvived-4/shoah-pile6.GIF
slavery: http://cdn.newsone.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/slavery.png
wanna tell me what's worse?
oh yeah and will someone add this
11. voting for barack obama with no reasons for voting for him except that he's black
thanks!

See this is what makes black people mad. Little ignorant people like you, I dare you to go up to a black person and say that to them. Not all black men are lazy some are but not all. And you can tell your mama to wash your own damn truck you lazy bastard. Some black people do not want to be Professional athletes, some will get a better job then you, so when you start working and your boss is black give him some fucking lip and see what will happenn to your ass. For your information they broughts blacks to the US because the Native Americans couldnt work in the heat like blacks could. If you didnt know which you probably didn't most black people are hard working people. Most of you white people probably have some other nationality in you. But man you need to get your shit, your probably nothing but a country bum anyways, and most people who other races are dumb means your probably dumber then us .
No matter how much lip i give to my black boss he will always have 5 times as much lip than me.
By reading this it shows just how ignorant you really are. There is no need to bring up the word nigger. I bet you feel big and bad that you said, but it means nothing you are hiding behind a computer. The really funny thing is i bet you wouldn't take a video tape of you going to the black part of town and saying that exact same thing. Why because you wouldn't make it out and that is just being honest. Not all black people are sports players or hair dressers. I am a Crime Scene Investigator and I have my MD. So what can you say for your self um that you might be still living at home in your parent's basement at 30. People are free to express their opinion freely as this author did, but they should learn to use better words. As someone else said if they have such a problem with rap music then stop listening to it. What about manson or other crazy white people in that category of music? When you express your self like you just did made you look ignorant and incompetent. Maybe you should pull out the dictionary and learn new words to use.
dumb whiteboy?
Funny...
1- It's a dirty word traditionally associated with slavery, lynching, and the screwing over of a people - you can't use it without permission from a black guy. Once you get permission, it's ok.
3 - You try hitting on a black girl, or a white girl who dates a lot of black guys... then you will realize just how easy white girls are. They just aren't ready for all the game that most black guys have.
4- Yes, slavery is responsible for the wealth (not income) gap. Closing that may take another 100 years.
see thats where people are wrong there are 3 ways to say it theres the way your talking bout (n...er) then theres what he is asking about (n..ga/n...o)
I hadn't read your column before, but good point, I won't read your column anymore.
P.S. You could try cutting down on the lead paint in your diet too.
Alan, that joke wasn't funny.
Rebello you hit the nail on the head again. Alan, you need to learn that you can point something out about another race without being racist.
Jeez, you could write an article about white people the same way. I think it would probably be a little shorter, but still just the same.
Alan, learn to take things in stride. Life is short, and letting something funny, with not intent to hurt, bother you is just a waste of time.
Rebello in 2020!
P.S. Should I stop bothering with the facebook requests?
Once again, another fucking hilarious article by Justin Rebello.
I got an idea for something you could write about next, how about a bar bathroom etiquette article? You could include stuff like urinal math, bathroom attendants who are there to make sure you share your meth, and the guy beside you drunk out of his mind laughing and asking HOW YA DOIN?
Just a thought, keep up the good work
Nice. Very funny. Alan, get a life it was a funny article and even my black friends rolled on the ground laughing, besides its ALL TRUE! Good job, Justin.
you're lying and you know it, you don't have black friends and if you did they wouldn't hangout with you. Besides all of the things that he wrote about are stereo types.
If you think those were stereotypes, you need to hang out with black people more often! Holy shit, if I had a nickel for everything time I heard a black girl scream some ridiculous name at the top of her lungs, I'd be one rich lady.
Though he forgot to mention the ridiculous clothes. And the really disturbing hair.
Yea right!!! I wanna know which black friend you have that rolled on the ground laughing Nicole, so I can smack them in the face, and they can wake the hell up!!!!
As a black female I did find a couple of the things in your column funny, but as a whole most of it isn't true about a lot of black people. Pig's feet are disgusting, D.L sucks ass, i don't even know what the hell Avirex is, and i have never said the word nigga. Oh and black men like white chicks because they are easy.
as a white girl who has had more than one long-term relationship with a blackman, i take offense to the comment that white girls are easy. i'll admit a few white girls are naive and actually fall for the smooth words that every black man keeps on reserve, but that doesn't make them easy. i've witnessed a lot of black guys taking advantage of white girl's generosity with money, affection, and time. three things even my best friend (who is a black woman) admit black women are more stingy with when things begin.
here's a personal observational analogy:
black guys are more laidback than white guys
white girls are more laidback than black girls
maybe it isn't the problem of black guys and white girls dating, but instead the lack of chemistry between an overly active white male and similarly active black woman.
also, some white girls choose to date black men because they feel more physically comfortable with them. in white culture, "beautiful" women are portrayed as 5'10" 120 lbs w/ legs resembling that of a pencil. if a white woman is anything but this image, she may feel uncomfortable with her body. black men, however, appreciate the "thickness" of a white woman, and accept and even encourage having more than just skin hanging off of bones. this acceptance creates a new level of security and comfortability for a white woman in her own body, which is the number one insecurity for many white women.
:] hope that no one took offense to this, and if they did: fuck off ;]
Hey I really liked your comment on this topic. I have dated black men here and there and now that you put it into words I can see why I am more attracted to black men. I do feel more comfortable with them, and the men I have dated openly appreciate me. It feels good to be wanted and feel sexy in any way shape or form I come, I am all beautiful to my man. From my experience with white men, they have extremely high standards as that of a playboy bunny type or a skinny ass girl with a 6 pack abs. I have found white men to actually pick me apart for a bunch of small nothings. When the black men that I have dated have appreciated my being as a whole.
Thank you Marisa, much appreciated. I realize much of it might not be true, but I figured we'd exploit the stereotype just to check, you know ween out the ignorance of the white man. Anyone else feel like we're making history here?
Your racist
And you're apparently illiterate.
Another good article.
Jews do still piss and moan about the Holocaust. That's how they got to create a racist, apartheid country with the support of the most adamantly democratic country in the world.
Heina, I'd like to point out that Israel became a nation within 5 years of the Holocaust. Most of the people then DID have something directly happen to them and had every right to do so. I don't see the connection with how generations of "pissing and moaning" has anything to do with a country that was formed over 55 years ago.
not to turn this into a philosophical debate about the rights of jews. back to rebello's article
Ok, I swear to God if this becomes an Israel-Palestine debate I'm only going to write about the Red sox and Pats from now on. Don't fucking tempt me.
ok 2 things
1) justin i would marry u if i could....i love you, i swear
2) this was damn funny...like funny in that way that i felt bad about sitting in my chair the night before my quarter grade is over reading it and cracking up type of funny (basically really funny)
3) we're facebook friends....god im a loser
teehee
Great article as usual. I must throw in my 2 cents though.
1) Any comedy consisting of "race x does this and race y does that" is not funny. I can't even watch the Kings of Comedy. I don't know why the audience goes spastic, good question.
2) I love blues and jazz. Heck, I can even go for some old hip-hop. However, rap brings the black man down more than white people ever could. Everything rhymes when you don't enunciate.
3) These white chicks who are willing to take the risk of being ridiculed for having a relationship with a black guy usually aren't risking that much. These same chicks don't care much for society's views so they are more likely to 'put out' with ease. (That is some politically correct shit right there, bravo me!)
4) In the U.S. of A., we're very sheltered and we seem to think we're so racist. Last time I checked, this country isn't in a persistent civil war over religion. The majority of us get along and go through life without killing a single person. It's part of our makeup to be a bit biased. I think we're doing a pretty damn good job of holding this 'melting pot' together and everyone in the media needs to stop fueling this PC shit.
I'm out- Matt
Matt do a little homework b4 you so easily dismiss. I need you to answer these question for yourself.
1 true
2 Who do you think rap nowadays is for? Who is the major consumer. Not Blacks.
That music is designed to sell to a certain demographic and its not poor black middle class americans.
3 1st off most white women give it up easy not just the ones that date black men or have you not been getting any lately?
4 Look up white priviledge. Youll see why you think this way. Heres a hint. Who is the "The majority of us" you are talking about?
Never read your articles before.
Thought this one was pretty good.
Answers:
1) No, you can never use that word
2) Black girls are so loud because their mothers were loud, and their mothers were loud, and so on. It's always been like that.
3) Black guys really like white girls. They like them because they think they are weak and will cater to the guys every whim. They believe that they won't argue and give a lot of attitude. Basically, they want with girls because they want someone they can control and they know that most black women won't stand for that.
4) Yes, they are really still that mad about slavery. Even though it happened years ago, it still affects us today because we still get pulled over for no reason, we still get crosses burned into our lawns, we still get followed around stores. Hell, I live in Detroit and I get called a nigger at my job at least once a day by customers, or white people refuse to touch my hand. So yea, until all that and more things change, we will continue to be mad about slavery
5) I personally don't like pigs feet, however I know of some people who do and that's simply because that's all we used to get to eat in slavery times; the worst parts of the pigs, so we had to learn how to make it taste good. Which brings me to chitlings which I believe are the pigs intestines and they smell, taste, and look horrible
6) Do you guys really think seinfield is funny? No, I can do you one better did you guys really think Andrew Dice Clay was funny?
7) No, everything isn't racist, but most things are
8) Vanilla Ice, no, but other than him and MC Hammer, feel free to like whoever. And not all rap is about my money, my bitches. You should listen to some Common or even Kanye
9) We all look alike to you because you are not black. Hell all white people look alike to me because I'm not white
10) Yea, well those checkered vans just don't do it for us.
Can you please answer this question for me?
Why do white people only wear a sweater, hat and gloves, but no damn coat in the middle of winter
Not all white girls will stand for it either! I do not let ANY ONE control me! I have dated both white and black guys in my life. And one of the black guys ended up in jail because he tried to hit me! Also one of the white guys ended up in jail because he tried to hit me! I am who I am I HATE HATE HATE the n word and when my father used it (he was talking about one of my uncles) I yelled at him and told him it was wrong and he should not say it! I beleave that all races should get along and it pisses me off when people are racist! Not only black people eat pigs feet my daddy ate them as well and he was white! I can't say anything bad about rap I don't like it but everyone has their own thoughts on it I prefer Rock :)! I do not nor have I ever thought that all black people looked alike or any other race for that matter!
in answer to your question I wouldn't know why "ALL" white people wear only a sweater, hat and gloves, but no damn coat in the middle of winter. Because I wear a coat! Thank you :)!
Why can't we all just get along?
The most racist people on this planet right now are black people.
They do their best to seperate themselves from society and label everything as racist.
One example is the black police officers society - could you imagine the uproar if you created a white police officer society?
Ummm is that a joke....Isn't that the norm. And blacks aren't seperating themselves, that was done for us by whites. I.E. ghettos, how the hell do you think thoses came about? Do you think we all got together as a people oneday and said lets live in poverty, false we were placed in those ghettos. We do our best to seperate ourseleves?!!! Seriously!!! Who the hell would, and I quote you, "do their best to seperate themselves from society," It is human nature to not want to be alone to not want to be seperate. We have done what needs to be done in order to insure our survival. We have to seperate ourselves from white America and make our own way, because that is the white America has made it. It wasn't an option for us to be seperate, an option implies that we had a choice and from 450+ years of captivity until the present we have not been given a choice, the decision has been made for us.
next time think aboutur comment jerk.....the white police officer society is called your local police department fool!
Well, as an unequivically white man that was married to an indisputably black woman, this was something that was batted around in bed between us. I wondered whiy I wold always see her and her friends bundling up in October when I was only considering puting on a long-sleeved shirt by that point. The answer is that white people just are more able to endure cold weather than blacks due to that we were fostered and reared in temperate/subpolar climates whereas black people come from much warmer climes. If you don't think this is so then look to the sidewalks when it's ninety and see who sweats the most. Conversely, who wears the coats upon coats when it's only forty? Hmmm?
yes actually.... Jerry Seinfeld is hilarious, which is why "Seinfeld" was the longest running, most popular sitcom of all time
As the resident black male staffer here at PIC, I found it my duty to produce a proper rebuttal (call it 'The Miseducation of Justin Rebello'):
1) Arguments for it differ, but I stand by the diminishing power usage holds over a word. In short, the casual nature of its common use and the spelling difference denote a shift in the nomenclature. If you said "Nigger," even if you were black, you incite the original disposition. Brace yourself for a beat-down, too.
2) I agree that many black girls are loud as a mere component to exercising a right to be heard. Women in general fight to be heard and respected, and many minority women lift their voices to be heard, both figuratively and literally.
3) Man, that's a tough one. Or rather, an elaborate one. I find that debasing the argument to "white girls are easy" is pretty racist in its own right. But that's not giving you an answer..so, i'll actually tackle the issue on the blog.
4) Not so much upset about slavery, but about how the capitol gains of the wealthy (not the rich, Chris Rock explains it rather thoroughly) utterly outmatch the rise of the minority middle-class/upper-class. It's difficult to arrive at equality when the pinball is being tilted by the wealthy political majority.
5) Varied tastes. I am from the South yet am not a fan.
6) DL hits as often as he misses. Honestly, DL really is only at his best when he's calling people out at standup show. Otherwise, not worth a show.
7) Not everything is racist, but many inequities are based on racial precedents. Negative reminders of how one's race effects daily life can put people a bit out of shape if you've gotten the business end of a socio-economic beat-down.
8) Hip-hop. "Rap" is generally associated with the monosyllabic slurs, profanity, and racial epithets that often (though not always) depict the mercurial life of a meteoric rise to fame that shifts with pop culture. Hip-hop displays wordplay and use of literary devices even the artists cannot define. Listen to some Tribe Called Quest, The Roots, Jurassic 5. Understand the difference.
9) Racial blinders, not necessarily 'racist' blinders. I'd also ask why many white people look alike, but then I see a Gap commercial...
10) It's about a feeling of worth to those around you. It's far easier to feel like people admire you when they're gawking at your attire than if they catch wind that you've balanced your checkbook and can recite Prufrock by heart. Everyone wants to feel respected/appreciate and material wealth (particularly in attire and transportation) is visible.
That’s what I could think of in twenty minutes, but I am going to elaborate more on the blog. Honestly, the above is my opinion, though some others may agree.
A good piece, in theory, though.
~EMT~
damn haha
1. Dont use that word.You will get punched in the face even by your closest black friend
2. We also wonder why !! It must be something in their Genes.Just the same way white girls are so casual about sex yet a black girl will take forever to say YES !!! But the wait is always worth it (hint hint) ;)
3. See 2 above. Hey, a man has needs so the quickest way to "paradise" is worth a shot
4. I guess 9-11 will be okay after sometime & Osama Bin Laden wont be such a bad man
5. Pigs feet? Dude, have you tasted cows feet?
6.Who is DL Hughley?
7. Just a quick way to get things done in our favour :lol:
8. What Rock group is it okay for black folks to like. I think Hoobastank rocks though. Hip-Hop is in our blood.You have to be black to know what I mean. Sorry Justin.
9. Ummm, you kinda look like my roomate in your Pic up there Justin.Maybe you are teh one....
10. Folding teh Bill on our baseball hats aint cool.It kinda looks dorky.Yeah these pants are huge...good way to hide my big d**k
Very funny, now you should do an article about stereotypes surrounding white people, it would do two things, one shut those who seem overly sensitive, and two provide for more funny reading.
this was a hilarious piece
i laughed so hard i cried
" dry heaved" as you say
great job heres your star and smily face :)
I'm a black female....and I LOVE Justin's Column. (at least he has the guts to talk about this stuff) :+:
1. I think the "N" word (no matter how it's spelled or who says it) is demeaning and maybe if EVERYONE stopped using it...no one would have to ask if it's okay to say it.
2. Not all black girls are loud
3. It shouldn't matter but some black girls DO like white guys (I'm a prime example)
4. Yes slavery ended a 100 years ago but racism still exists
5. Pigs' feet are gross (i'm a vegetarian)
6. D.L. Hughely is funny sometimes but not very often
7. No everything is not racist...
8. Some hip hop is good, some hip hop is bad....just like Yellowcard sucks but Radiohead is awesome.
9. We don't all look alike
10. I think it's completely ridiculous to spend all that money on stuff like that....plus i'm more of an AE kind of girl anyway.
number 8 = good explanation
Erin, I'm glad u stated that u were black because ur definitely an exception to the typical black girl and had you not said it, i would NOT be able to tell...i'm a little offended that you actually liked this article, but judging by your comment, I would say that you grew up around whites and have adapted their ways, likes and dislikes so ur opinion doesnt count!!! LOSER!!!!
I am a white guy. My thoughts:
1. Overuse has diminished the offensiveness of the word. Any black guy using it sounds very ghetto and ignorant. Any white guy using it is just a lame wigger.
2. To get attention and make them selves feel empower. It doesn't actually empower them but makes them look very unclassy. I think when they yell and wave their arms they can sometimes be success in intimidating people or just making them give in because they don't want to deal with the fuss.
3. White girls are the beauty standard. They are a bigtime status symbol for black guys. Black guys date them for that reason plus it makes white guys uneasy/angry. White girls do it to rebel and the sex might be crazier.
4. The idea of reparations is retarded. I think there's a big difference between saying slavery is wrong and saying it is still personally affecting you today. If you aren't a slave, don't bitch about slavery. Racism still exists...bitch about that.
5. I didn't know about this. I would have asked about watermelon and fried chicken.
6. I don't know him. I get the feeling many blacks like black comics just to support a bro. Dave Chappelle, Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock, and Richard Pryor are honestly funny. It's too bad so many black comics focus on either what it's like to be black or how funny white people are to them.
7. Playing the racism card all the time really weakens the case and it'll get to the point where the whiners cause even the genuine cases to be ruled out. The best thing blacks could do is cry out against affirmative action and just say I'll compete without a handout. The handouts diminish black accomplishments and piss off white people.
8. Any good rapper. I'll like any rapper with a good song, but think the ghetto culture is pretty gross.
9. It isn't hard to tell black people apart. If they look alike it's because everyone has the same color eyes and hair. A better question is, why don't you guys have afros? Why do you straighten your hair?
10. A lot of people spend big money on shoes or all types. If you spend it on a ridiculous looking basketball shoe, that's too bad. It will not make you an awesome player.
1-Overuse of the word will NEVER EVER diminish the offensiveness of the word, becuase the origin of the word itself if offensive, degrading, disgraceful, humiliating, and hurtful.....yes "Any black guy using it sounds very ghetto and ignorant" andy white guy needs is ass kicked (period)
2-Same reason you see these damn ghetto ass white girls walking around being loud like black women, that's sad for two reason, A-it's just plain ugly and B-it should offend black women that that's how white women see us and portray us.
3- What the hell!!! The biggest status symbol for a black man is to have his black queen on his arm, you'll have to find another reason buddy.
4-Slavery still effects A LOT of people personally, my great-great grandmother used to tell us about the stories of her great great grandmother and even at 99 (when she passed away God rest her soul) you could see the pain in her eyes and the anger in her voice when she recalled the stories of how her ancestors were raped, murdered, beaten etc etc. It effects us today because we carry that burden of our loved ones being hurt, slavery didn't end that long ago "pal" and it's not bitching when it's in your home everyday. I have the pictures, the letters, the stories, the tattered clothes from a cat of 9-tails that was used to beat my Great-Great-Great grandfather, the blanket my Great-Great grandmother gave to me when I had my twin daughters and told me that her grandmothers child was snatched from her and sold to a different family because her master had raped and impregnanted her and was now getting rid of the baby. You don't know what the hell you're talking about, slavery is as alive to us as the day we were taken from our kingdoms and brought over here to be slaves. Don't you DARE try and say it isn't prevelent today, the evidence is everywhere, racism is just a legal version of slavery for the 21st century.
5-I could ask why white people don't season their chicken when they cook it, or how they can always mess up potatoe salad!
6-Uhhh Duh! Of course black comics focus on what it's like to be black...THEY ARE BLACK! Comics draw inspiration from what they know, so it's only logical that that would be their inspiration, and white people are funny, you do dumb nasty shit, like let your cat walk on your kitchen counters and let your dogs lick you in the mouth, just UGH!
7-Who the hell cares about pissing off white people! White people have pissing of black people for centuries. I don't know one black person who gives a damn about pissing off a white person, in fact it just may brighten our day!
8-I'm going to encourage you to look up the word ghetto, find out where it came from, here I'll start by pointing you in the right direction------->ask yourself "how did black people end up in "ghettos" and where did the word originate from?"
9-That's funny (sarcasm). Check it out, black people are the originators of style, that's why all you damn whites are walking around with corn rows, dreads, singles, platts, etc etc. It's funny you say we all look alike., well why are you whites trying so hard to copy our style and look like us?
10-True. But sometimes the money is spent, not to make us a better basketball player, but to support our black celeberties, and businesses etc etc. And then sometimes people just wanna stunt.
As a white person who understands the plight of black people in America (being friends with of many of them and all) i must disagree with #7.
Affirmative action would never piss me off. Its not reverse racism like most white people i know see it. Its giving back to people who have been disadvantaged. And it doesn't just help black people either it helps all minorities.
Adam, I really liked ur response...Very truthful and respectful at the same time. You're #3 kinda hit me hard where it hurts tho. I'm just curious as to why YOU think white girls are the standard of beauty? Cuz sometimes it actually does seem that way...Lucky for me, I've always thought I was the most beautiful girl in the world :)
Well, here’s what I think
I don’t know why blacks use the N word. I would like to sit down with the first black man that ever decided to call another black man by that word after all the pain and hurt that it caused our ancestors, and ask him what the hell he was thinking. I mean, was that a joke??? Cause it sure as hell aint funny!!! It is NOT a term of endearment, and when I’m called that I take it offensive…whether you’re black or white. I’m far from ignorant (and I have the degrees to prove it), so do not address me that way. I really wish that word would just go away!
Black girls are loud, because we are a product of our environment. I’m not a loud person, I have a very introverted personality, and if someone can’t sit down and have a sensible conversation with me like a human being then I refuse to talk to them; however, my mom is EXTREMELY loud and my grandmother is even LOUDER! I feel like sometimes it’s a way of dealing with their emotions. When they are upset and want to voice their opinions they yell, maybe it makes them feel more powerful or in control, because to look sad, or hurt or disappointment, or god forbid, you decide to let someone see you break-down and cry (like a woman should be able to), is a sign of weakness…and we have to be “STRONG BLACK WOMEN.” When you’re busy raising 8 children on your own (as was the case of my grandma in Jamaica), there’s no room for weakness. You’re holding the family together alone, and you gotta keep it together. Then, I think my mom, from being around it so much just kinda adopted that behavior. She’s changing now tho…there was a point where I was like that in relationships when I got mad, but I’ve come to realize how ridiculous it is…and it only makes you angrier!
I think that black guys actually like white women. I think that any guy can like any woman, regardless of race and vice versa. Some people have very specific preferences, and some don’t. I don’t know how true it about black women being easy (although I hear it A LOT!), but I honestly don’t think that’s it. At least not when they commit to them for a lot time and make it know that their together. I don’t know of any black man that would be proud to wife a slut! What I do think, is that white women ARE more giving…more giving of themselves, their finances, and their support. Sometimes a man needs you to be submissive so he can feel like he’s in control…he’s the head..THE BOSS!! We all know how guys like that ego stroked! Black women aren’t as willing to be submissive, and sometimes (and this is from personal experience, I’m not trying to stereotype black women), as in the case with my mom, I feel like we’re quicker to argue and belittle them and make them feel less than their worth. Some men just don’t want the attitude!
I personally will never get over slavery. I know it didn’t happen to me personally, but I always think that if whites (as a group) could look at blacks, even though it was so many years ago, and think that we were THAT much less than them, then why should I be convinced that they don’t think that now. We as blacks haven’t changed in appearance, behavior, or abilities. If you viewed us as less than dogs then I’m convinced that somewhere, maybe very deep inside (think about it real hard), you probably still think that. It hurts me to think about what slavery was like…the lifelong beatings, rapes, hangings, being burnt alive. How does an ENTIRE RACE decide that’s ok? We don’t separate ourselves from society…society separates us from them because we still aren’t viewed as equals. We fought long and hard to END the separation. A LOT of people died for that cause….but we try to separate ourselves? Yea, the civil rights is over. But it’s not about that. Why are white people so afraid of us? We aren’t beast and animals, we don’t bite. You don’t have to rush to lock your car doors when we walk by and you don’t have to move out of your neighborhood cause too much of us are moving in.
I have no comment about pig’s feet or chitlings, never had it…don’t plan on having it! I’ll take some oxtails any day tho!
I actually don’t like most black comedians, I think they lack creativity…everything does not have to be about bashing other races, sex, and drugs. There’s soooo much more to life!!
Of course everything isn’t racist, but yes, some things are!!
It’s ok to like any artist you understand and connect with. Maybe rap music isn’t for you…you can’t relate, just let it go…listen to something else! Rhythm is a very important part of black culture…it’s not all about the words. Mostly we just enjoy the fire and excitement that ignites inside of us when the beat drops!! I’ll never understand obnoxious, angry, senseless screaming and banging uncontrollable on guitars and drums, while breaking stuff lol…but that’s obviously not for me (cause it gives me migraines), so I won’t even try to understand it. That’s ur culture…it pleases you, and I’m just gonna stay FAAARRR from it!!!!
LOL…funny when I moved here from Jamaica and wasn’t used to being around white people and seeing them everywhere, I used to think that ALL white people looked alike. I couldn’t tell any white actors or actresses apart (still have a hard time actually), but that’s just me..maybe I don’t pay enough attention. For others it’s easier to tell the difference…IDK why. Just believe me when I tell you that we really really DON’T!!! There’s not ONE black girl that looks like me : )
OMG! I know I’ve written a lot (cause I’m actually really bored and can’t sleep tonight for some reason), but #10 is my ABSOLUTE favorite!!!! I never understood this either. Why the hell is that??? Now, I can understand if you’re a millionaire and have an image to uphold, and $200 is pocket change, but c’mon black ppl!!! OHHH….And you wanna know what I think is ridiculous??? I think it’s ridiculous that I’ve known black women to spend HUNDREDS of dollars on hair styles, fake nails, and “name-brand” outfits…AND I MEAN RELIGIOUSLY…and not have money to pay their mortgage. ARE U STUPID???? The bank just foreclosed on your house because you haven’t paid your bills for over a year, but you spend $60 on nails every two weeks, $280 on hair style every three weeks, and $200 on a new outfit EVERY weekend!!! GET… THE FUCK…. OUTTA HERE!!!! LMAO…hopeless…. Let’s get it together!!!!
Oh, do black people like Jay Leno, because that guitarist just can't stop laughing? Jay Leno is extremely lame. Conan is the king!
haha- ok, when i got to college, i suddenely acquired a plethera of black friends... actually, all i hang out with @ school are black people, and they have accepted me as a part of their race... so i feel like i'm speaking for black people, or at least the ones i chill with, that this is the funniest stuff i've read in a while... and you know us, we dont read much... :lol:
Well, I'd just like to make a quick point about the supposed "wealth gap" that some of you attribute to slavery. Psst...here is an idea. Read the book <i>The Millionaire Next Door</i>. It is basically a study of America's millionaires and guess what...around 88% of millionaires in America are first generation rich. Guess what that means? ....wait for it......It means that slavery had nothing to do with most of the rich people getting the jobs and creating the income that they have. People who spend too much money on crap they don't need and can’t afford (shoes, cars, bling, etc.) and don't save money...end up poor. It is a fairly simple (non-racial) equation. If you do what rich people do, you will end up rich. If you do what poor people do (buy worthless crap, finance everything, and don't save for retirement) you are probably going to be fiscally poor (no matter what you are driving). Looking rich is what a lot of poor people (ghetto rich) try to do. If they learn what to do with money, they can become rich in the wealthiest economy on the globe. I know some of you might say, “Yea, but the _____ man was held back all those years and that is why they can’t get ahead.” Well, you are wrong. Millions of immigrants have come to this country and made plenty of money. Africans (ones who actually lived in Africa and then moved here) do much better in American society than the average black person. Do you really think slavery has something to do with it? Or poor family values and work ethics? If the skin color is actually the same AND they really are from a foreign country, than they should be underperforming blacks in America. Unfortunately, the opposite is true. I didn’t mean to get this long, but hopefully you get the point. Very funny article (aren’t you happy I didn’t even mention Palestinians or Jews).
I'm a black girl and i found your column insulting considering it was based solely on stereotypes and assumptions. Stop watchin so much goddamn MTV and wake up to the real world. But at that same time at least u were being honest about what u thought and u wanted to clarify ur thoughts on black people so let me help u out...
1. I HATE it when black ppl say it & i HATE it when white ppl say it 2 eachotha when their alone (and trust me we kno u guys do when no blacks r around). it's a degrading word that was used in the past and we should let it be history
2. WE ARE NOT ALL LOUD and only one of my balck friends has a 'ghetto' rhyming name like shaniqua or sum shit like dat come on man like i said u watchin to much tv. why dont u say shit about how white girls are streeotyped as always being so damn prissy and eager to please. BOTH ARE UNTRUE stop keeping these stereotypes alive thats why these things last because people give life to them constantly talking about them and believing them.
3. Black guys do this becuz they actually DO LIKE the white gurls... after all white girls are seen as a part of success. If a black guys got money & fame tha white girls jus the icing on the cake. AND WHY DO SO MANY WHITE GUYS THINK BLACK GIRLS DON'T LIKE THEM? i can see how for your ignorant ass this statement would be tru but ive been with white guys b4 and ive had white guys cum up 2 me when they try 2 talk 2 me askin if im interested in white guys if u wanna holla at a black girl jus do it wit confidence you'll be alrite
4. i know sum black people do act like they had been in slavery and thats annoying cause its like stop bitchin you have oppurtunities now u didnt hav in tha past stop bitchin and do sumthin. yeah jews dont bitch as much but survivors and families of those in the holocaust were given $$ and black ppl didnt get shit where's my payback??
5. NO that shit is disgusting only 2 ppl in my whole family like it and one being my grandfather and ive never spoken of that food w/ otha ppl (and i mean all races of ppl ive never heard anyone else bring up that food before howd u find out about it??
6.---
7. no most of that time we joke around about that shit but it still exists its happened to me but everytime im let down in life i dont blame it on tha 'white man'
8. ---
9. No we dont u shithead **but sumtimes white girls look alike** but we dont say that shit about white ppl lookin tha same
10. Some guys do but some of them lie about that shit sayin they hav a pair they bought that cost alot
i feel so cool when i give my fellow white girls a ni**a please.
is that so bad?
1. The "N word" I could care less about. If they want to call themselves that, fine with me. I've never felt the urge to use the word.
2. Are black girls really that loud? I hadn't noticed.
3. I can't blame black guys for wanting white girls over black girls. Black girls are much less easygoing and not nearly as attractive. In other words, they're a lose/lose. Honestly, which would you choose?
4. Yes they're still mad about slavery. That's a big part of their current problem. Too easy to blame whitey (I know, I know, we've never owned any slaves) and not enough self responsibility.
5. I know a lot of white people who eat pigs feet.
3. I CAN'T BELEVE YOU MADE THAT STATEMENT! I AM A BLACK FEMALE AND I KNOW PLENTY OF WHITE MALES THAT WOULD RATHER DATE A BLACK FEMALE THAN A WHITE ONE! ONE ACTUALLY SAID HE WOULD RATHER DATE BLACK FEMALES BECAUSE THEY ARE MORE ATTRACTIVE. I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU GOT YOUR INFORMATION FROM BUT YOU NEED TO GO BACK AND CHECK IT! ITS STUPID COMMENTS LIKE THIS THAT CAUSES TROBLE, ARE YOU REALLY THAT IGNORANT?
And I guess that typing in all caps proves that black women aren't loud..
hhahahahahhahhah
Ok, so I have a cough..and I also have terrible asthma (and I smoke). When I read the part about the full body dry heave...I started laughing so hard that I started to cough...and I coughed so much I couldn't breathe and I almost passed out...so I'd like to thank you, I haven't laughed like that in a long time. And it was hard to explain to my boss why I was laughing...oops heh
Alright I'm one of the three black readers you have and here's your answers
1.No one should really say the N-Word and I can understand you wantin to use it (because its forbidden) but growing up in the south if you use the word you should not only get "the stink eye" you should get fucked like seriously hospitalized
2.Black girls aint that damn loud come on why does it seem like white girls cant say five words without saying "like" or "you know"
3.White girls arent that attractive to me personally i dont find white girls attractive except Angelina Jolie other than that they are all makeup
4.I aint mad about slavery but once again growing up in the south I know some white people who believe that we should still be slaves so maybe you should talk to them
5.I dont eat pigs feet do yall really cows heart or is that an urban legend
6. D.L. Hughley aint funny unless he roasting someone I dont know bout that laughing
7. Everything isnt racists but racism still exists
8. Like who you want i can't call it but rap dont suck listen to Common,Dead Prez, Little Brother, and Z-Ro The Crooked
9. All yall dont look alike
10. We dont fold our baseball hats cause it looks corny...as fuck. Baggy pants are kinda going out of style
In Conclusion...I might have to fuck you up... Just joking...But naw for real I just might
funny article. im a black girl and i hate dl hugley, always thought that trashy ghetto fashion with logos all over it fugly and although u say black girls dont like white guys many of us do! hell i know i do, i like all types of dudes
ROFL!!! SHUT UP FATIMA!!! U SOUND LIKE A FRIGGIN SLORE!!!! "Hell I know i do, i like all types of dudes"
Your article is based on stereotypes and assumptions if you truly wanted to be taken seriously maybe you should try and get to know the other race instead of jumping to conclusions. You start off your article saying I'm not racist i have black friends well that's a good indicator that you are people who say that are trying to validate there acceptance of other races and that is pretty lame so let me clear up a few things for you
1. the N word is used by people who choose to use it but just the same people use slag when talking to each other every day i have heard white people who call them selves crackers i have heard girls who personify their selves as B**** and i have heard Asian call their selves slant eyes its all about what you want to do. now myself personally i choose not to use those words cause they are useless but it is each persons choice to call the people around them and themselves what they want
2. I am a black female and i work for a very large company and hang out in nice places i am not loud and i think that people who are loud are annoying ( and believe me they come in all colors) that has nothing to do with race that just shows their courtesy level.
3 People date who they date for several reasons Love money and status. You choose who you want to be with off those factors and color should have not factor. I find it hilarious that you think that black girls do not date white guys the reason that i find this amusing is because i fate white men and my children and are mixed. Not all white girls are out buying the OC on DVD some actually care about who they are with and are interested in learning about other cultures
4 No we are not mad about slavery we are mad about racism which is still alive and kicking (which your article just attributed to ) when people are speaking about their families dying and the treatment of their families which are still alive its hardly pissing and moaning you would not know that cause obviously you have lead a very sheltered and unknowledgeable life
5 No i do not like pig's feet and thinking every black person eats every part of the pig is stupid if you want to get technical people of every race eat some not so pleasant parts of animals kind of like the people on the food network buying duck liver for 100 bucks a pound you eat what you like and carry on
6 DL hughly is not funny but in that case neither is George Carlin or you for that fact
7 People pull the race card way to much i will admit that but at the same time there are still people out there doing racist things neither should be done
8 You can like whatever rapper you want to ... Hell for that fact try something new pick up a jazz cd ... But one thing i do find amusing is that a lot of white people like old school rap and there were more insults about white people in that than there is today .. I find it most amusing when i see a white kid rolling down the street listening to NWA
9 Everyone does not look alike the reason you think they do is because you don't take time to look at anyone
10. Yes we spent 200 dollars on shoes ... Just as people spend 300 on a purse with a duck on it or you have to have the latest Ambercrome and Fitch shirt or even better you defiantly can not live with out your 50 von Dutch hat .. dude get a clue people spend money for status and things they want no matter what race it is
In conclusion If this was a joke you really need to work on your humor skills and if this was a serious article then you really need to work on your people skills never the less whichever it was it should not have been wrote cause you not only belittled minorities but you also belittled yourself even if you find all these things amusing and not to e taken seriously it speaks volumes about who you are
1. D.L. may not b funny, but he tells the truth. WHY DO WHITE GIRLS TEND AND LOVE 2 B ANOREXIC? WHY DO WHITE PEOPLE: DRIVE 2 FAST AND 2 DAMN SLOW? TALK VALLEY,SURFER, AND REDNECK? (ALBONICS AS OPPOSED 2 EBONICS) EAT RAMEN NOODLES? (YUCK. BESIDES, I DONT EAT PORK, OWN BLING OR $100.00 SNEAKERS, TALK IN EBONICS, OR LIVE GHETTO, IF U ALL MUST KNOW.) BLACKS PRODUCE DIFFERENT COLORS W/O RACE MIXING, SO HOW CAN WE ALL LOOK ALIKE?AND WHY YOU FOLKS DONT BELIEVE IN GOD? AND GO IN SHARK INFESTED WATERS BUT CRINGE AND LOCK YOUR CAR DOORS WHEN U R 15 FEET AWAY FROM A BLACK? WHITE PEOPLE, GET A CLUE AND AN EDUCATION!!!!!
There's a lot of Negative Feedback on here from the brothas ansd sistas. But I think one thing we can all agree on together (black people and white people) is that D.L. Hugley is NOT funny
Jeez whats with all the moaning ?! Its supposed to be funny and entertaining! He's not serious about what he says, its a COMEDY article!
Good work mate :D
Oh yeah? Would you have said the same thing if this were an African-American male poking fun at your race (pictures and all)?
white guy 19, green bay wisconsin, my focus on this issue.
1. I think personal the word should be banned from anything but text books. Everyone needs to forget the past and focus on the future.
2. Stereotypes are fucked up.
There are sterotypes for every race, color, and creed. Judge everyone individualy.
3. Date whoever you want. Its your desire and taste. Im attracted to all women.
4.Slavery is dead but racesim is still strong. We ALL have to try and stop and forget the past. For as long as history has been around ALL types of people have always tryied to blame their insecureties on differnt people.
im a hypocrite sometimes as we all are. Its hard but we need to stop!
5. I think all comedy is funny but until people wake up and relieze we are still doing damage to our society with sterotypes.
6. Shoes are shoes to me. i mean materialism is a sin. Religion or spirituality nomatter what you believe, think,it makes you more happier than any shit you can own. trust me.
You ignorant SOB !! Do not stereotype all black people as being one. We are all different and have diverse backgrounds. All black women aren't loud and named Shaniqua.And we all don't look alike. Does Halle Berry look like Whoopie Goldberg? As far as slavery goes, what happened all those years ago, still affects us yesterday,today, and will in the future. You are the reason why racism still exists today. Do your homework be a little more ambiguous in your perspective, and maybe, just maybe you'll be enlightened somewhat.That bias view towards us limits your possibilities. Yes, we do have our issues and destructive habits. But so do you, and everyone else!! Stop fucking judging and try to empower the next man, so he can do the same. Please, read a book, do something constructive with your pitiful life. I was gonna finish with a degrading remark. But your not even worth it !
Go Red Sox!!!
I must admit this article left me thinking. However there is one thing i agree with, let the slavery thing go. I know it happened but hes right, so did the holocaust. Lets just make sure it doasnt happen again. As for the "N" word, why is it okay for two blacks to call each other that? I think its a offensive term and if it really offends the blacks people, stop using it. I would never use a word that offended me as a white girl.
I think the point, treat each other as you want to be treated.
Well, I wanted to write something cool and witty, but I think it's all been covered. Nice job!
Oh, wait!
I gots to ax you a quezchin? How come you didn't mention Ebonics?
Enough already! I need to go get me a 40 and git wit one of my babies momma's for some serious ass slammin'!
It's amazing white boy goes to college, meets a couple of black people and suddenly he's the authority on black culture. The only thing you know about blacks is the stereotypes the media and the culture of the US has fed to you since birth. I will even admit that many blacks support these sterotypes. However, remember stereotypes don't reflect the whole of the race. Yes, this article is supposed to "comedy" but it's not funny. Which I guess supports the sterotypes that white people aren't funny, think they have the solution to everything, think they know everything, think the world revolves around them, etc.
flame on people...what i get from most of these posts are that it's wring to stereotype.
Black comedians use stereotypes all the time in their comedy to make fun of black,white, asian, all types of people and we laugh our asses off, so what's wrong with this article?
If he wasn't funny, he wouldn't be on the site and you wouldn't be reading this.
God... i thought that this was funny. both the ten things that this man had to say, and the fact that every black person on here, basically, expressed how wrong this guy was, and how bad he was for just using stereotypes. then went a bit farther and used stereotypes of their own against him.
hypocrites every last one of you.
black people are loud..deal with it..
white girls are easy and will screw anything and anyone..deal with it..
white people are dirty..literally..take a shower people..
white women are weak and pathetic..deal with it..
same goes for white men..
see? we are all racist...deal with it..
oh and yes im black..DEAL WITH IT
:lol:
Man, you gotta be kidding with this post. This is a whole bunch of stereotypes of the black race trying to be explain by some Portugese guy who wacks off three times a day. WTF? How many black people does this guy actually kno? By the way we dont really like pig's feet, we cant help it if white girls like us, we dont all look alike(does Michael Jordan look like Malcolm X), and not all black girls are loud.
P.S-and yea we are mad about slaverly
Well written and hysterical, yet again. Great work!
look mane I ain't even trippin. you mean well and I respect that. but honestly, how you talk about how you see black people act, is just as much as a black man askin "why do white people stare at blacks?' "why so man caucasians do drugs in college? ya feel me
P.S. I am a N##g@ representing dat 504 new orleans
This is the best article I may have read in my entire life. Not because its all true (which for plently of the black people i know it is), but because of how mad alot of the black people got in response. I have never seen one black comic who doesnt spend at least a third of his act being completely racist and sterotypical against white people. For instance, a prime example includes Dave Chapelle. "Did you know white people dont use wash cloths? They just rub the soap all over themselves, thats nasty." Yeah, its comedy, and was pretty funny none the less, but its still trying to stereotype whites.
Oh, and i loved this article.
F**k journalism. Seriously, f**k it. There are bigger things in your futre.
(If you need a blog after you graduate, let me know. )
I think I've just lost a few brain cells reading your "article".
<i></i>Oh and black men like white chicks because they are easy.
And black girls aren't? I believe I've seen more 15 year old pregnant (for the 5th time) black girls walking around, than white. Atleast the "easy" white girls have some sort of sense.
sure whatever. at my highschool there isn't one black girl that i have seen that is pregnant but like 4 white girls that are. you really need to check yourself before you start saying that a race of females basicly don't have any sense because you obviously dont.
I thought the article was 'cute'.
1. Black people can use the N word and whites can't becasue when a black man utters it-it is a sense of botherhood. When a white man utters it-it comes from a inferior point of view, as in Niggers are animals. Also, the way it is annoucaited is differnet, Nigga vs Nigger.
2. My Mother is black and she isn't loud-thus, with a little inductive reasoning we can conclude that not "all" black women are loud.
3. White girls are the starndard of beauty that the media portrays. I thank the problem is that "many" not all white guys just find black skin unattractive, so they wouldn't even consider dating a black woman and they can't understand way white women would. I'll tell you, there's a inner sterength and resovle in the Black man that the white woman finds attractive. True-we have our problems as a race, but to have surivived years of oppression the black man had to delevope a resolve and foucs.
4. I agree with you on the Black race needing to get over slavery. I thank the problem is a lot of us expect things to be perfect. We have to realize that it's a gradual thing-i mean, the civil rights movement only ended about 45 yrs ago, and we still had slaves in America 150 yrs ago. When one considers that the world is over a billion yrs old-that's but a drip of water in a ocean. Also, as a race, we have to stop perpetuating stereotypes, it's the way of the world that the worst of any minority race is what will be most displyed.
5. YUCK-i've never eaten pork and never will. But i do agree with a previous poster that "some" black people eat pork feet becasue it was all they had in slavery days and when you look at it, Mostly Southern Blacks it that stuff-guess what-slavery was most previlent in the South.
6. As to the comdians, it's been said that people always want to understand way people hate them or dislike them. Black comdians hurmor toward whites is a cry from their Souls, so rather than cry about what they see in the world, they make fun of it. They, like so many in the Black community have found the one outlet where they are allowed to excel/express feelings towards whites-ENTERTAINMENT. Look at it from this point of view-in slavery days, the Black man had to make himself appear now threating to the white man, so he smiled big and talked funny. This trend continued and branced out into other areas-the Black man saw that if he could entertain the white man, than perhaps he would be accepted. It's only when the Black entertainer appears to strong or Free(Barry Bonds/Terrel Owens) that the White Man starts to see them as more than entertainers, but threats.
7.I've got to run, so i will end on this note. Millions of people in this world are lost, looking for something to hold onto or someone to love them; regardless of race. Sometimes we do and say things simply to be accepted by others, sometimes we do and say things because we hate ourselves. The only way to true Salvation is via the Love of God!
To the poster below,
Please don't confuse Barry Bonds and Terrell Owens with honest men who are trying to be strong and free. Charles Barkley is strong and free. Bonds and TO are selfish douchebags.
Whether black or white, there's a difference.
To The Poster Below
As is Roger Clemons, Jeff Kent, Mark McGwire(remeber the steroid alligations), that hockey guy who nearly took an oppentents head off last year, Jeff Stewert, Bill Lambier, Jason Williams(the tatted up basketball player) and a host of others.
The only time we hear negative sports stories is when it involves a black athetlict. Such as Vince Young suddenly being to 'dumb' to play quarterback in the NFL. LoL-it's really sort of sad when you thank about it, the rheortic has changed, but the intent remains the same.
you suck penis
1.The N word is one of those crazy things. Its a psychological thing we all have to work through.
2.Some Black people are super loud naturally. Sometimes it is a lack of social training. Sometimes it is intimidation
and comedy. Some black people use aggression to get what they want. Some types of whites are also loud and unrestrained.
3.Maybe it's LOVE. My brother dates white girls who are involved in film making and production like he is. He is a loner and very shy not into name brand clothes -these are the girls just seem to like to spend time with him.
My other brother does not date white girls at all.
Sometimes white girls chase black men. My uncle is an athlete - a carload of girls went to his hometown on spring break and sat outside his parents house for days.
4. Slavery tore families apart and shattered human beings. It was a physical, emotional, mental holocaust.Think of how it would be if armed gunmen came to your home and raided your family separating them in a nightmare that lasts for many generations. Even after decades of getting out of the situation fear, terror, pain and emotional distress lasts for generations.
5.C'mon. You know all black people do not like/eat pigs feet. A lot of food is regional-meaning SOME people in that area enjoy that food but not all. I am sure there is a food that many of your
people lik that may be unusual to others.
6.D.L. started out very raw, but meeting different people and learning that all white people are not like the ones in his imaginaton has made him a better comic. It is called GROWTH. You do not fear people or see them as stereotypes when you get to know them.
7.When you have been discriminated against and treated cruelly, you tend to become paranoid.
It is like trauma recieved from bad experiences.
8.We cannot blame you for what Poison, Ozzy, Kiss, Marilyn and a hundred other bands who do/talk in unusual ways do or have become.
If people get on your nerves, you should stay away from them. I do.
Rappers are creative, innovative and noncomformist and fascinating. They have sharp minds when it comes to linguistics and create new words continuously. They are not dumb.
They are just not traditionally trained but they understand how to create and work the system.
They have created something out of nothing and have gotten faboulously wealthy doing it. Some have gotten fat and lazy. If millions were thrown into your lap, you would lose your muse, too. Accept them or ignore them.
There are many kinds of rap just like other music. The ones who are shallow can be ignored.
9.People of the same race tend to look alike until you get in a group of them and then you will be amazed at how different they are. Even facial features.
10. Thats a stereotype. You are looking at too much TV. Most black people wear medium price clothing. The faboulously wealthy blacks/whites (and some who imitate them),are the one who spend a lot of money on shoes/clothes.
kim
Gaman,
Get real, please. To say that we hear negative stories about black athletes only is just plain ludicrous. How did YOU hear about all the bad things those white athletes have done? Through your own investigative journalism or through the mainstream media?
I won't deny that racism still exists, but please don't advertise your own warped perception as truth. It makes you look foolish.
The most important thing you should know about black people is that not one person/celebrity/comic/athlete/actor/
rapper/etc./ represents black people.
Black Americans may be the most diverse and varied group on the face of the earth because of racial and cultural diversity- intermarriage.
There is no way we can look alike because we come in so many different skin tones.
Sometimes the rejected mobilizes and becomes empowered.
Maybe your perception of black people has been formed solely by what you see on TV.
As for Ebonics-The purpose of language is to communicate. If I speak in Ebonics and you understand me, then I have communicated with you and probably given you a good laugh, too.

Comment WHY ARE BLACK GIRLS SO DAMNED LOUD....?
i once saw a group of white chicks throwing up and peeing in the parking lot of a night club. i didnt think that they represented ALL white girls. i just thought THAT group were a bunch of drunk silly bioches.
from my point of view, the whole thing seemed to be written in a somewhat sarcastic, and purposely ignorant tone..for a humorous effect.. i dont think Rebello actually means ALL of these things anyway... they're all stereotypes and i thought it was a lil bit funny...only because i know he wasn't completely serious... (or at least i hope so)
Atleast you are able to ask questions about things you dont understand ..... U Got Guttts..... Try being born black then you will understand the black experience..... Everyone is not the same and believe me it dont matter what color you are, what race you rep- ignorant people are everywhere.....
About the N word Yeah we can say it but you can't.....How do I know you mean in a good way or do you mean it in a bad way.....I dont know .... but when someone black say it I know exactly what they mean...bad or good......black people got soul-that's why we are so different so don't classify us as one ........LUV YOUR SITE !!! keep up your quest for the unknown.....holla back.......
Why anyone says Jews dont talk about the holocaust and its over are blind and WANT to THINK that african americans are the ONLY race that talks about their upheaval and shame or slavery.
Let it be known that slavery went on MORE than 100 Years to Africans
while the holocaust about 2-3 year tops.
While jews got compensated African American got NOTHING!
While Jews STILL get compensated:
Again African American have nothing to show for slavery but painful memory.
Your really ignorant for a journalists: but hey its HIS-tory right? Your perception of Your world no matter how WRONG or just plain moronic it is.
White ppl are JUST as loud or Louder than black people, it just SEEMS as though your MORE perceptive to black people and their loudness because their not your race: take a good look around you when a white girl is speaking and you'd be amazed that shes PROBABLY loud as hell too.
Only silly people spend a lot of money on clothing. One perception people have of blacks is they spend a lot on clothing, the other their cheap: how can that be so? Again ignorant and silly.
DL Hugley dont represent ALL black people and their choice of comedy: most black ppl i know HATE his so called jokes. and more white people go to his stand up then blacks; did you know that? guess not.
Just because someone is black that doesnt me he is the voice of black people. thats just HIS voice speaking about his views.
And your a little rasist if not a lot
And i say Good Day!
I live in Memphis, Tennessee. I live with these questions every day of my life. I strive to love, accept and appreciate every person that crosses my path, but I do have some simple questions. When did "Excuse Me" become "Excru Me"? When did "Computer" become "Compruter"? I work in a music store, and I'm blown away every time I'm asked "axed" for a clarinet "reef". The last time I checked, it was a "reed". My main concern and frustration with African Americans in my city is not style, dress, loudness or what not, each of us is allowed to be who we want to be, however it's the command of the English language and basic etiquette of every day social interaction that concerns me. My life has been blessed by many African American folk, but I don't understand how this has gotten out of hand. It is funny at times, then at others, it's quite sad. Especially when you live in it, day after day.
I TOTALY AGREE WITH YOU. BLACK PEOPLE ARE LOUD, RUDE. THEY WANT TO INTIMIDATE THE WHOLE FUCKING WORLD. IN NEWYORK, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR BLACK PEOPLE NOT TO STARE AT YOU RUDELY OR IN A ''I WILL TEAR YOUR FUCKIN HEART OUT TYPE OF WAY.

DREAM BIG, SET YOURSELVES APART FROM WHAT SOCIETY THINKS YOU ARE. ONE THING THAT I HAVE NOTICED IS THAT AFRO AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE VERY INTELLIGENT, AND HAVE THE FIRE, AND WILL TO DREAM AND REACH ANYTHING THAT THEY SET THEIR HEARTS ON ACCOMPLISHING, REGARDLESS OF WHAT WE THINK. I AM JUST VERY ANGRY, BECAUSE THIS GHETTO MENTALLIY IS ROBBING EVERYONE OF DREAMS, INTELLIGENCE, SELF DICIPLINE, AND SOMETHING EMPOWERING TO LIVE BY.
YOUR TRUE SELF..........
JUST THINK......
IF I WASNT SO FUCKIN LOUD AND RUDE FOR NO APPARENT REASON, WILL THE WORLD ACCEPT ME?

YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE A VERY IGNORANT PERSON! YOU JUST CALLED MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ANIMALS, HOW YOU LIVE WITH YOURSELF I DON'T KNOW!!
hey ralph!
just curious as to why you are so angry. are you just looking for someone to blame? did a black man steal your girlfriend or something? whats going on buddy?
and i feel that your hatred is so deep that it will permanently cloud your perceptions of anyone you encounter that is black. the simple fact that you use the term "black people" to represent the diversity of cultures, ideas, and beliefs within that race not only highlights your ignorance but your incapacity to displace your myopic view and be more open-minded. are all white people the same? the majority of people that commit some ridiculous crimes are white: for example the number of men who have sexually abused children are WHITE..can we also talk about the Oklahoma bombing..last time i checked he was white..can we also talk about greedy CEOs (predominantly white) who steal from their companies and others. its the same shit just done differently
and
its all about how you want to look at it. a black person or someone from another race can look at all the things whites have done and let it predetermine how they will view ALL whites. is this right? NO. same with you ralph. u probably met a few blacks that are a certain way and now u put all of them into the same category; and whatever behaviors they display will only contribute to the skewed and bigoted views you already possess. i dont blame you for such laziness since so many people would rather categorize than educate themselves and question their reason for their views in an open and objective way...thats why people stereotype.
also I know many blacks who are not as described above or in this site. however, we have been so programmed to assimilate data/information that we have receive into a particular schema, and rarely question whether what we have done is correct.
well best of luck ralph and others...i hope you at least begin to question all that you see and try to understand instead of assuming. and ask intelligent questions. ignorance is ugly...dont wear it or carry it around ;)
everything you said makes perfect sense, thanks for letting me know im not the only one that thinks like that.
Yikes. Didn't you know that your article, although legitimately funny, would attract ignorant black people and fucking retarded white supremacists? Honey, you're hilarious, and I get what you're trying to do, but god damn, other people depress me.
The article was funny but some of the comments were fucking ridiculous. I happen to be black and I don't do 1/2 the things onthis list. I realize you are kidding and I appreciate the humor bt to everyone who took this too seriously STOP GENERALIZING! There are too many rich, intelligent, beautiful, well behaved black people in this country that are ignored bc the MEDIA would prefer to glorify those who everyone feels represents the whole group.
And for those white supremecists out there, stop being white trash redneck hicks who are still stuck in the last century. The world is moving one and you're stuck behind. Less and less people are thinking like you, that makes you a MINORITY. How does it feel to be the ignorant one now?
strangely, i have not yet seen any postings here from mr. rebello.
i guess he might be afraid of something.
at any rate, i honestly, <b>seriously</b> want to believe that he really is not so ignorant as to actually think that these 10 (plus the other 'questions' he'd probably have for us but did not elect to ask, in this particular article) do in fact represent the majority of [black americans].
i do know, though, that even if he was, as some previous posters/defenders suggested, 'kidding,' a lot of other fair-skinned people legitimately take all of that to be reality as they know it.
like that bumfuck who posted in all-capital letter, for example.
really: as far as i am concerned, every nationality has people within that suck cockroach ass.
what is irritating me most, right now, is that it appears justin is implying that his own fair-skinned brethren (and sistern) don't do funky things, themselves; so, i would love to see you come up with ten questions for white people, bro. and they all will have to be legit questions, too - or else, i will know that you truly do believe that your fellow whites' collective shit doesn't stink.
:-(
like i said: every individual nationality has people within who, basically, are embarrassments for it.
for example: assuming that all the posts (the ones which were in regards to justin's 10 questions) by authors who said they are black [american] were in fact composed black americans, i need to say that i was not pleased by the vast majority of them.
this, in terms of ..... grammatical/technical quality. (and before any of you start trying to denygrate me for my own style: i am choosing to write 'like this' because my actual 'normal' style is rather distinct; as such, i do not want anyone being able to eventually link my posts on 'pic' back to me, and consequently saying what could only be <b>ignorant shit</b> to me. so, y'all leave me alone about it - do not try retaliating against me with shit that you <i>will not</i> intentionally try <b>not</b> to write in correct grammatical-style.)
digressing, i'm not happy with the quality of most of the posts of my fellow black americans, here; however, i will be smart enough to take into account the fact that, presumably, for the majority of these posters, they were writing while under the influence of emotions. <i>strong</i> emotions. i've done that, my self, and had had the quality of my own rebuttals suffer, in technical quality, accordingly; so, for them, i will try to overlook it, and try to derive from those posts, the messages they were attempting to communicate.
except for some ... some of my brethren's, and sistern's, posts just plain sucked cockroach ass, themselves - i might could say you embarrassed me, as a black american, as a matter of fact.
:-)
trying to sound all educated, and everything, through your rebuttals, for instance - but mucking up all your credibility by being shoddy typers/spellers or/and by ndistorting facts and reality, yourselves.
or, you dumb fucks who were, sorta proudly, promulgating those very negative qualities that whitie loves to say are symptomatic for all of us.
i mean, thanks for trying to stick up for our people but, please, leave that to the professionals.
but, really, i'm still not as disappointed with you-all as i am with the white people here (the ones who really are white, of course), who were saying some incredibly stupid shit.
i'm pretty disappointed that people who are currently as young as ..... 14 (and of course even younger) can sound like they were original members of this 'greatest generation' that, ironically, justin says he's not so much a fan of.
i <i>really</i> get ticked with you fuckers who say that you just don't see what the problem is.
even though, yes, apparently it was africans themselves that first sold other africans to whites, for the purpose of them becoming enslaved, whites perpetuated that ugly practice, for a rather long period of time.
now, i don't yet know when it was that our enslavement begat the racism and prejudice that whites have against blacks but, i am going to feel safe in presuming that enslavement, in fact, <b>did</b> bear genesis to those two things, against us.
i will also feel it safe to presume that just about all of those ugly things that black americans have been doing, since after that last <b>official</b> slave was released, can be directly linked to our ancestors having been enslaved, here. (this, not even to speak about those 'ugly things' that fellow blacks do {and have done}, in the other countries where they were enslaved.)
no shit.
if our ancestors were never enslaved, black people - as you all know us - would probably be a radically different people; although i cannot actually say _how_ we would be different. (actually, if what's going on in the continent of africa is any indication, we probably would not have been so better off, anyway.
i have to do some research on this - especially in finding out just what it was that first lead an african to decide to sell his own people out like he had...)
what i am saying is, things with us would be different.
but, they're not.
those ten things (and more) you've complained about, justin?
i would chalk all of that up to being of direct consequences of four-<b><i>hundred</i></b>+ years of my predecessors' enduring shit that, for the most part, they would never have consented to undergoing.
from enslavement, when whitie was allowed to treat blacks however he wanted, to the era of jim crow, when it was still encouraged for whitie to look upon us as being less than three-fifths (that's 3/5, or 60-per cent) of a person, although we could no longer be ... official slaves, for them. i think that things were just as ugly for black people when they were enslaved as when they were subjected to jim crow rules - at least back when they were slaves, whites weren't <b>actively</b> looking for a reason (such as, the wind's having blown from the West as opposed to having blown from The North, of a given evening) to string one of us up.
i feel that i can say, with 98-per cent certainty, that my people, in america, themselves started to join in on the ugliness at around the time the civil rights' movement officially ended.
it's been building, ever since.
so, we're probably not mad about slavery, its self but, rather, the after-effects of it - white people still carrying with them the vestiges of a time long ago passed, why should blacks forget about the very thing that caused the ugly behavior of white people, 1888 (or so) - 2006?
also, why do jews get to receive reparations when we don't?
why won't you sons-of-bitches look at this as being analogous to our being the recipients of all the back wages never paid to the enslaved, that are rightfully theirs?
<b><i>post-humous payments</i></b>, you should view these 'reparations.
i mean, our 400+ years, in comparison to the way way shorter period-of-time the holocaust spanned?
come, now.
1. Well... intelligent Black people have much disdain for the general use and acceptance of this word in black "pop-culture" and generally never use it unless expressing the some poor soul is literally a "nigga". However, most Blacks realize that it would be virtually impossible to get niggas, black, white or otherwise, to stop using this word as though it was a term of endearment or in a way that makes it inclusive of all African-Americans. I actually have met more white niggas than black in life and that not being humerous.
2. Niggas are typically loud regardless of gender, black, white or any race in between. Black folks typically aren't and avoid making a spectical of them selves themselves at all cost.
3. You heard the saying, "variety is the spice of life..." Enough said.
4. Most Black folks aren't "still" angry over slavery nor do we expect mainstream America to give proper consideration to the most tragic and costly holocaust in human history even though we think its appropriate and overdue. Most "niggas' however still are. Any excuse will do to create excuses for there situation and bring attention to themselves.
5. Not worth a response. Only a "nigga" would ask such a question as though it were legitimate. So I'll assume you're humoring yourself.
6. It's funny you mention this. D.L. Hughley is not funny at all. But then again, "funny" like "beauty" is in the eye of the beholder. Furthermore, since when has having real talent been a requisite to entertaining people in current pop-culture, Black or White?
7. No, everything is not "really racist" as most Black folk will easily admit. However, most people, black or otherwise, are not really sure what the definition of racism is and use the term when they really are stating that someone is bigoted or prejudice. Racism by definition is an economic, political, and social system that still very much exist not only in this country but world-wide. Case in point, what other group in U.S. history has ever "earned" a higher gross annual income, as a demographic group, than White males? The answer of course is none. Is that because White males are so hardworking and industrious...nahhh.
8. Who gives a damn, honestly? Most rappers who receive media exposure really have nothing to say worth hearing. Hence they receive the most media coverage and radio play time. Those who do have something to say, don't receive the exposure and probably don't expect to. In addition, any intelligent person would define that for themself, but I suppose your asking this question to more or less vocalize an observation.
9. Well, that's actually a legitimate question based on an astute observation. I would image the answer would be because you grew up mostly amongst other White people, your observations about the differences in physical characteristics of other White people became more keen in comparison to noting the physical difference of other non-white people. The same goes for all other ethnic groups.
10. Unfortunate yes..."niggas" do. However, Black folk don't and will usually will try to get the most for there hard-earned dollar just as hard-working White folks will.
Is this a college newpaper article?
I apologize if my post appears three times, it wouldn't show it after I made it.
Well, you know, I could spend time and effort giving my likely tried and tired answers to all your questions, but I have better things to do. Things like try to figure out a way to give myself a rusty trombone. That aside, this article is hilarious, and if you don't think so, then perhaps your missed the disclaimer at the very fucking top. "U bout to get fucked up", I commend you. You made me laugh harder than Justin did. I took the time to count the punctuation marks in your little Kristal-induced rant. Not counting the periods before each number, they come to a grand total of one. One, you know, like the amount of brain cells you possess. Like the amount of state's capitals you know. Like the amount of balls you have. But anyways, back to the trombone.
I was reading your article about black people and I think you dont understand anything at all about black people and even more I dont think you even know any black kids. You picked out the top-rated steryotypes of black people and put them into your piece. Not really top tier stuff here, Justin. Why blog this article on the internet when you can just ask someone these absurd questions? Scared of the black folks? Think every black guy is gonna hand you a whoopin' because you said "Nigga" around him? Well, youre wrong and you pretty much show youre lack of skills as an intelligent thought based writer. And furthermore, Cam'ron is the shit. He's still here leading the <a href="http://dipsetmixtapes.com/">Movement</a>!
DMX is a crack head, and Jay-Z is a fag. Do me a favor and spend a few hours with your local campus niggas without shitting your pretty pink panties and you wont have to write painfully absurd articles like this one!
Yo bro. A long time ago when I was in high school, I heard two white guys call each other nigger. Just as the one called the other a nigger, he turned and saw me. I think we both had the same realization at the same time. It is okay to use nigger, under any circumstances. I think we both also realized that it is intent in the word that causes the pain. That is why white guys can call each other nigger and depending on the context will or will not fight. Well, the same goes for black people.
As far as D.L. The roaring laughter comes from the experience not the telling. If you look about an audience you will see that the people of all color(?) who have had that experience are reacting the same. It's a 'growing up thing' If D.L. had come out in the 60's, I wouldn't have thought him funny. The reason being is that until I was 21, I was a middle class, white bread black boy. I had not experienced any of what he was talking about. Once I got out on my own and lived through some of those experiences, I gained a point of relativity, hence the humor.
Contrary to what some of the blacks have said about you not having an understanding of black people, I actually think you do have an understanding. Albeit from a different point of view. Your point of view is not from a negative point, just different.
By the way, all of us, black, white, red, brown, yellow should first, drop the use of color and start using nationalilty. I am american, John Yang (ficticious name) whose grandparents came from China, is an american, same from any other individual whose ancestors came from another country but they are american citizens. But that's another subject.
As far as black people go, yes certain of us do tend to over do things, like $200 for a pair of shoes but then Elvis would fit nicely into this category. Each society has a proportionate share of these types of individuals. No big deal.
Most of what you know about black people on the negative side comes from our portrayal in the media. Here's a point of reference that can immensely help all of us. We, black people, are distinctly different from EVERYONE else. We are IMMEDIATELY noticed in any crowd. Because of the the media, and the politicians have an unending source of 'food' for the boobs who live at the tube. If you want to get elected, refer to solving crime or talk about poverty and show fleeting shots of black in Africa or ANY riot in america, Not to worry, the boob tubers cannot not distinquish between Black American and Africans or any one pictured in a riot. Remember we, black people, got fed up with being treated like 2nd class citizens and rioted in Detroit, Los Angeles, Oakland, Houston and a fer other places so there's plenty of footage.
These racism in America is driven by the media who after all is the most racist form know to man. It is not racist by design but by desire. It desires to make money and titilation makes money. So show the criminal on your local crime show as a black man and while you're not saying all black people are criminals, you are certain permitting and encouraging the boob tubers to make the connection.
All Blacks are not still mad about slavery, only the stupid ones. Most are mad that the similar methods of treating blacks still exist. In companies today, when lay offs occur, blacks, regardless of the number in the company, will be hardest hit. We may number 10% of a company but during a layoff. 25% of the black employee population will be laid off. Why? The reason is because we are viewed as the 'throw away' population. Not intentionally, just victims of the boob tube. When schools are shut, the inner city and rural schools are the first to go. these have large numbers of blacks, we are victims.
We are also victims of our selves to. We're give unflinching support to black women and none to black men. A black mother will bail her son out of jail when he definitely did commit the crime, send him the money he needs to live decently while in prison, go see him and support him. She will throw a party for him when he gets out. This strengthens his belief that everyone is against and and help him bond with other criminals like him. Dad has left or has no leg to stand on so he might as well be gone. What's wrong with the picture? The boy committed a crime, why support him? When my son commited a crime, I didn't bail him out, I didn't visit him and sent him just enough money to barely make it. He learned Jail is NOT a badge of courage and does not make a man. He learned that jail is a BAD place and anyone who goes there, needs to learn that they did something to get there. Yes even the innocent ones, They got into the police's eyes somehow. Contrary to belief, there are white people in jail who are innocent too. the police make mistakes, so what. If you are innocent, fight it to the death but beat them using their system.
Black women, the stupid ones, support their own stupidity to the death and not only support the stupid blacks but breed new ones. They live in what we call the ghetto. Those that want a better life do what it takes to get that better life and then leave the ghetto. Those that want to live high, make ghetto money selling drugs, guns, steal, and stuff like that there and then live the ghetto life style. Which means they get fancy clothes, fine cars, a big house and then still do the same stupid things, like drive drunk, do doughnuts, stop in the middle of the street and play loud music at odd hours among other dumb things. Basically, showing the same disrespect they showed before they made the money.
Point. Notice that you can fit that description into any race?
This could go on for ever. But basically, you're neither a racist nor ignorant of black people. You just see us from a different perspective.
To the clueless dumbass who posed the 10 generalised questions on this site:
You questions, not to mention your weak elaborations reveal your twisted and typically confused caucasian mindset.
Not that I give a damn what you think with your airhead round-off perception of blacks, but here is my dissection of your derogatory forum questions.
1) Why 'some' black people still use the term 'nigga' (whatever way they spell it) I don’t understand, but whatever it is it must be for the same reason they would choose to mingle with supposed 'friends' like you... ! Why whites use it toward each other in the supposed 'friendly' context that unknowing blacks do, is for the same reason they committed the atrocities against blacks; the 'thief' gene is inherent in all of you - you just can't seem to shake that trait!
2) So word is that you are a journalist... <b>if</b> you were a good one you would know the rule of factual statements and that is never to generalise. You talk in reference to a small circle of black females, so the smart thing to do at least, would be to specify the 'black girls' you were making reference to.
3) This is a question that you should probably pose to your own 'insane white girls' as to whether they do that to piss you 'white boys' off and why.
4) Nice cover up question when you're a dumb-ass descendant of thieves, who reaps off of stolen wealth. Trip over your ego often enough and you find that you pose lame ass questions and statements such as those you've made in point 4. When genocidal atrocities such as this takes place with the outright mutilation of your predecessors (to whom we <b>are</b> directly connected regardless of your weak and clueless statement to that matter) you don't just forget it. Since you picked up on the 'time lapse' since the 'supposed end' of that atrocity... try asking your fellow descendants why they continue to promote global lies in the disguise of religion, and initiate mass killings all 'in the name of your 'male' God.
5) Another generalised question with not much consideration to the black reader who is not of the category that you so comfortably blanket us all into... What the fuck is your problem - is this an experiment to log and criticise the responses you get or are you really just that DUMB!
6)No comment to this generalised and really senseless question.
7) Oh... and at this point we're supposed to perform back flips that you are the supposed 'first one to highlight this' (there goes that causcasian trait again - even when its just an imagined 'spotlight', just can't resist)! Let's see, by your analysis of Bush's character... guess that makes you racist too. Though you claim to 'have black friends' and 'like black people', your 'choice of words' for the end introduction and most of the questions you pose reveal you to be no different to the man you've just judged.
8) Not worth comment.
9) Opening quote: 'How come you all look alike? Just kidding. But seriously, do you think all white people look alike? Because, no offense, I think all blacks look alike.'
Does that even make sense? OK so now that your 'red pill' has worn off, does that statement make sense to you even after you've read it? First you're kidding.. then you're serious... which is it then? That insult just bounced right back to you!
10) Opening quote: 'Sorry, I’m trying to get as many questions in as possible. Please don’t hate me. I love black people. Fresh Prince!'
That's the most prominent lie in this entire forum, how long did it take you to make that one up? And you can keep that non 'fresh' foot in your mouth too with that closing expression.
I highly doubt his ancestors were plantation owners, because 1)if he had so much "old money" he'd be living off a trust fund and wouldn't need a college degree, and 2) he's Portuguese. Does nobody learn the whole story prior to shooting his/her mouth off?
dude, thats some funny shit. i'm glad someone finally made a site to ask the questions that nobody else would wanna ask. wonder what the "niggas" reading this stuff on your site are thinking?
I don't have many comments but the couple I do have has to be said. You mentioned the black people loving to eat pigs feet and then you made a joke about dog penis. If you have forgotten, let me remind you that your white ancestors used to fuck dogs you dirty bastards. If you do your history you will know that syphillis only existed in dogs until your ancestors or maybe your people til this day were having sexual relations with the dogs. Why do you think you all have blue and green eyes (like dogs do) and the stringy hair. That's why you all will always refer to the dog as "man's best friend".
Now as far as 'black men loving white chicks', that's only because once again your ancestors instilled into the black man that white is beauty which is clearly not the case. Even this day you all can not get enough of black folks and everything we do. The way you wear your clothes, the music you listen to, the way you talk and walk, all like black folks. But who can blame you. Even your ancestors couldn't get enough of black folks. They couldn't get enough of the African women slaves. Left the white wife (that was supposed to be considered beautiful) at home to go and rape him a Beautiful Black Women.
Well that's all I had to say. And don't worry, we all have a little racism in us!!
LOVED THIS!!
LOL! this was damn funny. And true. Im not an american and nor am i racist but from what i've experienced here in america ,it is mostly true. im not saying that all Black people are like that but hey, stereotypes HAVE TO BE BASED ON SOMETHING!!!
Thank you justing for pointing out the obvious and thanks for making me laugh!
-shrug-
it's like i say - in essence, no matter the ethnicity/nationality, everyone sucks.
so, babycakes, if you decide to check back on the comment board, and see my latest entry, then just let us know what your blood is, and i will be sure to, eventually, come up with some disparaging stereotype(s) idiosyncratic to it - just to show ya that no one is immune.
it's not so much that i mind having the ugly of my people pointed out so much as i mind that person's acting, implicitly, as if his/her people are free of cruddy behaviours, themselves.
incidentally, i am still waiting for those '10 questions i have about white people' justin.
are you going to do it or should i inquire e mike about taking up this task?
Why aren't you racist?
OH MY GOD - I'm not sure how long ago this article was posted. I am sure that the replies tp it were some of the most depressing, nonsensical and poorly written words strung together that I have ever encountered. It is absolutely AMAZING how many people missed the boat here (there's a joke in there somewhere). While describing how intelligent their particular race may be, they are proving their individual ignorance by responding in such an outraged and ridiculous manner. Some went as far as to answer these questions. Here's a hint as to what I'm talking about:
IT WAS A JOKE. IT WAS NOT SERIOUS. THE QUESTIONS WERE POSED AS A FARCE. THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE FUNNY.
I think I counted maybe 3 posts that actually comprehended the above point. How depressing to find out how dumb people in this country are! Some morons actually went as far as to answer the questions, one by one!
Rebello may be racist in reality, but to fire hateful words at him because he was attempting to be funny by asking about the truth of common stereotypes of black people completely misses the point. How many times has Steve Harvey, "Earthquake," Dave Chapelle, Chris Rock or EVERY other black comedian made a joke about white stereotypes, inducing fall-out-of-your-chair laughter from the audience? They do it so much to the point that they have a stereotypical white VOICE in which they make their racial stereotypes. Jesus Christ, people. Hang out with other people smarter than you so that you can hear them talk and possibly, they might explain sarcasm to you, or you can grasp it on your own. Retards.
I am on the verge of tears after reading this. Words cannot explain the horror I find in your "funny" little blog. I wish you nothing but terrible things in your life you motherfucking racist piece of shit. I hope a big, black man shoots your mother in her fucking forehead.
Knowing black people is not the same as being one. THat is a history of peoples and a culture you will never get the honor to understand and appreciate. If you can honestly say that you are not a racist, then I fear for you and people like you.
Why the fuck would you ever want to call someone white a nigga? Your people put that derogatory name on us and now you want to appropriate that too? Sick, greedy, confused fucks!
Black girls loud? Or are they treated with respect and equality by their black community? Perhaps they aren't afraid of men and feel the need to be subordinate to them like dumb ass white chicks.
A black man is a man, filled with sexual desires just as most human beings. He is able to be attracted to all sexes and races.
Mad about slavery. It is at this point that I wish you AIDS. DO you dare say that slavery and its effects are over? Then why won't real estate agents give black people homes? WHy cant positive images of blacks be present in the media? Why can't blacks be paid as much as whites? WHy can't there be a black president? WHy are blacks excluded and denied everything you have??? If it truly ended, how are you writing this shit?
Your food comments are stupid. You are just not cultured or open to new things.
Black people laugh whole heartedly because they still have souls and healthy hearts unlike fat, fuck, redneck, hairy old white men who haven't seen their dicks in over twenty years.
Yes, when you live in a society which was born and created and embedded in racism, everything is racist.
if you are attempting at being a comedian, give up now. your shit isn't funny. point in case is that if you're not black, don't try to be and DON"T talk about them either. IT's the least you could do after all that has been put on us AND continues to be put on us.
Learn to take a joke you racist prick. Yes, black people can be just as racist as white people. But still, you're an ass.
JUST SHUT UP THIS PERSON IS RIGHT AND YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO CALL HIM/HER AN ASS! JOKES AREN'T ALWAYS FUNNY! JOKE ARE NOT THIS ARTICLE IS STUPID AND RACIST SO SHUT UP!
Hilarious! I'm a 22 yr. old <b>BLACK</b> female, and I found this article hilarious! Stay tuned for 10 things I don't understand about White People.
this is hilarious, i dont know why everybody is so mad about this though, ITS A JOKE calm down a bit
Im not gonna go over this thing piece by piece because I don't have that much time on my hands. There are really only two things that need to be said. First, while we all know that stereotypes are not true for ALL people in a group, however they do exist for a reason. Why do they say white people can't dance? Because most of us can't. Some can but MOST of us can't. And second, as for slavery, let it go. I, being a white guy, know that racism exists and shouldn't. But the effects of slavery are dead and gone. Racism is the problem. I'm gonna repeat that: SLAVERY isn't the cause of your problems, RACISM is. I mean its kind of insulting to the people who actually were slaves to compare the two. I mean, you get pulled over because you're black. Its not right, but that pales in comparison to a hundred years ago when you'd get beat trying to vote or some guy in his bedsheets killed you because you looked at him funny. Holding something that never has or will happen to you, like slavery, over the heads of people who had nothing to do with it is just fucked up.
P.S. I know this is a generalization and doesn't apply to all black people as evidenced by the ones who didn't get indignant and post angry comments, but why is it that (some) black people can't take a joke about themselves. If white people can take all the cracker, white trash, trailer park, can't dance, racist, smaller penis, talks like an idiot, walks like an idiot, and country music jokes we have to endure, why can't they take a joke about pigs feet and shoes?
before i go into anything im not racist. i play football at bethel college and the majority of my teammates and friends are black and we have had conversations like this many times. jesus i can not believe some of the responses this has created. now like "why cant a black become president?" hello dumbass white people are not the only ones voting dipshit. slavery is over get the fuck over it. black people dont like being stereotyped but they think it is ok for them to do it to whites? what about all black colleges? as far as i know there isnt any all white colleges. one comment was really funny to me, when someone said something along the lines of "what group of girls are you talking about i dont know any black females that are loud." are you fucking kidding me thats all i can say to that. in the end you bring this all on yourselves. if you dont want to be stereotyped quit acting like a bunch of thugs, learn to have an intelligent conversation while speaking real english and not that made of bullshit that so many blacks use, go get an education and get into plitics. try taking shit into your own hands to change shit instead of sitting on your ass and pulling the racism card.
you need to do a little cultural anthropological studies. the 2 black people you've met in you're life don't even stand for 1 % of the black people in america, let alone the world. i think every joke you tried to make has already been sadly done, and your attempt is also not funny. the fact that you keep repeating sorry, don't hate me for saying this shows how insecure and ignorant you are about what you are writing. really, it's people like you that make other white people like myself embarrassed to be white sometimes because of generalizations from both races. differences are beautiful. learn to appreciate them and before you ask stupid questions trying to be funny, think about what you're asking and put yourself in someone else's shoes, even if they spent 200 dollars on them. because you will never know why people do what they do, everyone grew up facing fucked up shit. i wish america wasn't so racist. and fucking ignorant. i can't wait for a black president. and i hope it's a woman. we need change. and a new idea of humanity and brotherhood.
WHO the hell do you think you are? This is the most arse-up article I've ever read! Were you born in the 1920's? Do you buy into every dumb stereotype in the world? Do you really think the rappers you see on TV that portrays the stereotypes have anything to do with real black people. I'd like to see you say all this utter SHITE to an actual black man's face. And make it a big scarey one. Oh btw> I'm one of those white girls one of the black guys "stole" from you...ever think you're just a passive aggressive peice of shit and THAT'S why you're pissed when you see susie from down the street with tyron from the projects? You need a serious reality chech. OH and I've left my email so you can say whatever narrow minded racist shit to me you want. And for the record..any peice of writing that needs to be preceeded with "I'm not a racist..." is certifyable racist bullshite.
I LIKE IT ITS THE TRUTH, SPREAD THE TRUTH.
Most of your comments, as sad as they were, are true. I am a black woman and am sometimes ashamed at how black people act. Don't get me wrong, people in general seem to not have any pride these days (except selfish pride that is).
One comment you stated was rather interesting. You stated that black women don't like white men or are not intrested in them romantically but I think that's false. Have you ever tried steppin' to a real sista?
I can see the humor in your article, but you really left out some really, really funny stuff . . .
Like the colicky granddaddy who was brought to the lactating mammaries of a black woman while his frigid birth canal of a mother went shopping for a bustier to push her behind out and her breast up so that she could try to emulate the lactating black woman that her husband frequented in the field shacks. No doubt though that great grandma was a tad bit happier that great granddad moved up the coital chain and was at least no longer affectionate to the cows and sheep. (LOL, c'mon this is funny stuff!)
Even funnier is that with the money he pilfered and extorted from the free labor of other human beings, great granddaddy passed laws, acquired property, and set up a trust fund for his offspring (at least the non-tinted ones he claimed) so that his descending sons could go to college, marry other frigid birth canals, and keep them happy with "stuff" swiped from boardrooms, stock markets, and diamond mines, while at the same time they sought to return to great granddaddy's mammaries to frequent the moist places surrounding tinted thighs and full, luscious lips, which of course is the only reason why thick thighs and luscious lips are shown on tv. (Tee, hee. Honk, honk. It's a joke.)
Now, here's the punchline: Even with ready access to and control over commerce, natural resources, monetary capital, imagery, communication, and education, and having myriad ways to work collaboratively with humans on the planet, he nevertheless finds it necessary to spend all his guilt-ridden energy to demean, infest, intern, propagandize, incarcerate, dehumanize, experiment on, invade, ridicule other human beings, and inflate his own ego so that nobody will know the true privileged parasite that he really is. (ROFLMAO)
I am not black but your artical about forgetting slavery and moving on doesnt need to happen.
We never need to forget about the horrible mistakes that we have done because if we forget them, they might happen again. We do not want that to happen. Your article is also very racest. I have a lot of black friends and the things that you said are very racest. You might not realize it, but you are being racest in every paragraph that you have written.
This is not right and you need to delete this article before it causes more descrimination than it already has. You need to never post anythhing like this again because it is wrong.
Thanks,
Blake
i may be the 1st black (well mixed) person to say this, but that was funny. now where do you live, so i can blow up your car?... just kidding.
as much as i would like to see the n-word stricken from any language, but that's like asking for a block of ice in hell. why are black girls so loud? ...i wish to god i knew... so i could come up with something to get rid of it... but i'm leaning towards a chemical imbalance in the head or something...
the white girl thing? um, i'm not too crazy about them (especially after watching "Rosewood"...lmao)... but i do the interracial dating thing.
some ppl are still mad about slavery, but mainly the false promise after it was abolished, that everyone would have, as reparations, 40 acres and a mule...(who the hell needs a mule?). hell, i wish i had ONE HALF of an acre of land to call my own...
D.L. sucks... too annoying for me... i like cedric/bernie better. katt williams is good also, provided he's not using the same comedy routines.
to 'everything's racist', i actually joke about it, but i never make a big deal about something that happens (or doesn't).
i'm ASSUMING that (at this point in time - july '07) to like t.i. and lil wayne (oh, i also detest cam'rons off-beat ass, and the missing link between man and gorilla, 50-cent, as well as that spider monkey, who plays as an extra muppet on sesame street, ja rule) jay-z, or sean carter, or my new favorite, Joe Camel, lmao, or whatever he decides to sit down and call himself, recites other ppls lyrics too much.
the 'look alike'; since i'm mixed, i'm not so sure if that's safe to answer...
and me spending $200.00 + dollars on any clothes/shoes/accessories (and i'm not some sort of entertainer, or making ass loads of cash) is not happening. the same chances in me buying nonsense BS like that, are about the same chances that Cam'ron has at getting a "Best Rapper Ever" Award. besides, what's the point? most shoes are intended to be worn 6-8 months (collectively).
and for being over 200, those shoes must be able to self clean themselves...
but this is just my take in response to your questions...
did some black guy reele piss u off and inspire u to wrie this...funny nonetheless
<b>
1. The 'N' word is bad when white folks use it to blacks because it was intended to make use seem nothing more than animals. Black folks have now turned it around to make it have a new meaning amongst them. Not saying I agree with it, but if the two parties involved in the communication is not offended, then why should an out looker be. The same with the word 'cunt', for some people this kind a language towards each other is fine.<br>
2."Why are black girls so damned loud?" to say this shows a lot of ignorance, putting every black girl in the same box, its like saying "why are all white men's dick small??" or "why are all white people trailer trash" or "why are all white folks serial rapists/murderers, kiddy fiddlers and thieves??, who's only intent in world is conquer and rule???"<br>
3. "I don’t think they truly understand the plight of the black man"...I dont think you understand black folks at all, otherwise your next statement...<br>
4. "Are you guys really still mad about slavery? I mean, geez it was over a hundred years ago" Ermmmm, the affects of slavery still go on to this very day...I wont into the psychology of it all, but put it this way, in comparison to how much y'all have sowed and what you are reaping it's a damn shame to even say to black people "get over slavery"...<br>
5. Do you white guys really like black pudding?? (This made of pure animals blood by the way)<br>
6. D.L Hughley is damn funny; this is the part that really upset me lol<br>
7. In case you didn’t know, people treat you different when your black (refer to my point 3)<br>
8. There’s Christian rap music, political rap music etc but again I guess this goes back to my point 2. , putting everyone and I guess now anything to do with black folks in the same box<br>
9. White folks all look alike to me too, I find it very hard to watch TV sometimes, but there just aren’t enough black programs on. This is normal; a Chinese man will probably think all white folks look alike too, at least for a while, until you learn to how to differ them.<br>
10. I would just like to take this time out to say that I do think you are a complete ass, and I guess you wanted to be heard. I, for one, couldn't care less if you love or no, so stop saying it, it is not impressive, if anything it shows that you are lacking in your mental capacity and is trying to over compensate..."I am not racist" but damn sure trying to bring our race down...buy hey I am not surprised (refer to the end of my point 2)<br>

THIS GUY IS NOT RACIST. EVERYTHING HE SAID WAS TRUE ABOUT A MAJORITY OF BLACK PEOPLE. I HAVE BLACK FRIENDS THAT ARE COOL & THEY DONT ACT LOUD. AND BLACK PEOPLE DO NEED TO FORGET ABOUT SLAVERY! IT WAS WAY BEFORE YOUR FUCKIN TIME! SO STOP COMPLAINING! WHEN IS THE LAST TIME YOU HEARD A NATIVE AMERICAN COMPLAINING ABOUT HAVING WHITE PEOPLE BEATING THEM, OR BEING THE FIRST COME & LAST SERVED? OR JEWS COMPLAINING ABOUT HOLOCAUST?? YOU HAVENT...&& PEOPLE WHO BRING IT UP ARE IGNORANT, THANKS
Firstoff its 2007:
#2 - white girls are loud too, chinese ppl are loud and many other races
#3 - ur reason for why you think black guys "like" white girls is off...from what i hear and see
#4 - we're not mad about slavery...i admit that some ppl talk about it more than they should but "he who forgets his past is destined to repeat it..." or something like that
#5 - honestly i do not kno anyone who eats pig feet. i don't even eat pig. and alot of white ppl eat some weird stuff that i wouldn't even poke!
#6 i don't think D.L hughley is funny
#8 - I agree with you on snoop...and 50. i think eminem is amazing. i like the way he plays with the the sillables in words and alot of other things in his flow....and thats not all black ppl listen to. at one point my favorite song was green day - when i come around and i pumped it!
#10 - I don't kno what Avirex mean...what does nike mean...or addidas orroots or whatever...once again its 2007 and alot of white guys wear big pants...supposedly the style for black guys now are skinny pants, or tight pants or fitting pants (whatever u wanna call it)...is that ok??
Ok, the answers for you "questions"
#1. Im not even in the mood to explain that to you. Sorry =P.
#2. Well ya, a lot of black girls are loud, but so are alot of white girls. Just the other day at school, " OH MY GOD BRITTANY LOOK AT TRAVIS TODAY (squeals) HES LIKE SO FREAKIN HOT! Ew no HES LIKE.... NOT. Anyways I like JUST GOT MY BMW YESTERDAY!!! (more squeals) LETS GO PAINT OUR NAILS." By the way my sister is pretty quiet so not ALL black girls are loud.
#3. I like girls of all color. I could give a rat's ass to piss you off.
#4. At least im not. I only get mad when somebody brings it up and use it in jokes that really aren't funny. I got a sense of humor but some people take it too far.
#5. My hispanics friends introduced me to pigs feet so really, your the only ones that don't know.
#6. Ya he's alright. To the second part of that question, it's cause a lot of us like express ourselfs freely around each other and like to have a good time. If im paying who knows much money at a comedy event, I better laugh my ass off.
#7. Thats really a dumb question cause if you think about it, the only people that complain a lot are Al Sharpton and the NAACP. And not all black people are Kanye West, and not all black people agree with him.
#8. I don't really listen to 50 cent or any present day mainstream artist. I listen to the good true underground or just play some old tracks.
#9. I think white people look alike...so we are even =P.
#10. I spend 60-90 bucks on shoes (a lot of people spend over 200 bucks on shoes these days and not just black people. Businessmen, chicks, ect.), I don't wear big pants(like emo tight pants are any better), Avirex is a clothes brand (thats like asking what does Aeropostal mean). I see plenty of white people wearing flat billed New Era caps with the tag on now so thats just a stereotype.
So thats that. Hope I answer your questions (sorry about number one).
OH my gosh.
I just saw a freaking comment that said he found it hard to watch TV because there werent enought BLACK programs on.
oh. my. gosh.
YOU HAVE YOUR OWN CHANNEL.
kthats all. I thought some of these were a bit exaggerated. And they dont apply to ALL black people, but yeah they are true for the most part. PAHA>
1. The n word is totally inappropriate. Many(not all) black people use it in a different context ( to mean friend not ingonrance) I, personally, do not use this word.
2. SOME black girls are loud. I will give you that. And I really can't say why they are so loud. But other races are just as loud. ( the real question you shoud ask is WHY ARE THEY LOUD AND GHETTO)
3. Black guys don't like white girls to piss white guys off. They tend to go for white girls for two reasons. 1. White girls will do things and accept things from a black men that black women will not tolerate ( and they know it) 2. white women seem to have better etiquette in public. And MEN ( not just black) are tired of the loud ghetto women with no manners.
4. YES AND NO. This answer is complicated. NO we are not still mad about slavery because we did not personally experience it. But yes because we are in some ways still paying the price. Most white people (I know) are born to privelage and in some way have connections to old money. And the black people that (I know) are born into poverty. As a result, our children are taught differently than those of white people. While some black people struggle to make it and build a foundation for their offspring, most of them do not. They complain and blame the white man for their problems.
5. Every black person does not like pig's feet. If you offered me $10,000 to eat pig's feet one time, I would have to respectfully decline. (Chitling) LOL its spelled CHI-TER-LING - anyway, it is pig intestines. Lots of black people love it with hot sauce. I, again, would not eat this if I were offered a large sum of money.
6.DL hughley is funny sometimes. But no hes not steve harvey or anything
7. NO everything is not racist. Racism is still prevelant, no doubt. But half of the time, black people are looking to blame people for their problems.
8. Rappers are tricky. DMX we do not like. He is a little psycho if you ask me. JAY-Z is good. Even though he sounds the way you say...he is from the projects in brooklyn so a lot of the time he says things that most black people can relate to. AND most of the time white people do not understand him because he uses metaphors that white people don't get or that they can't relate too. 50 cent is ok, but he sends a negative message at times. Personally the hip hop industry has lost its soul. So I would suggest not listening to rap music. I dont anymore
9. We do not all look alike. There is this girl that I went to high school with that was so ugly and ghetto. If you saw me and her and said that we looked alike I would then become one of those statistics about black people killing people.
10. YES black people spend ridiculous money on things such as sneakers. But it is no different than a white man spending 5-6k on a watch. Avirex is a the name of a clothing company who makes expensive urban clothing. But the history comes from a man named Jeff Clyman, who was an aviation enthusiast. He was inspired in 1975 to create flight jackets similar to those worn in WW2 by pilots, because he made an one for his dad. Folding the bill of the hat decreases the value (kind of like putting miles on a car), which is why theyleace the sticker on.
I know it was a "joke" but if you haven't noticed, your a damn idiot. You just bashed an entire race using stereotypes, and anybody who does that....is a damn idiot. Im not going to list answers to your "questions" because they aren't even questions. You just think your some fucking comedian. And to you jack-asses that agree and or list other "questions", please feel free to go BURN IN HELL. To me their are only two kind of people. Not black and white, nor brown or green. There are human beings and then there are senseless, stupid ignorant, worthless, moronic, waste of sperm, air, water, and 9 months of lugging nothing but a pile of shit in a womb, disgusting, pitiful, parasitic disgraces to fucking dirt. You my friend, are the second kind of person, or shall I say, thing. Please, never in your worthless life make another blog, website, or any kind of communicating or sharing "thoughts" with any life forms or other "second things". Acctually never leave your house or room for that matter and attempt to socialize (corrupt) any human beings. Sorry to be brutal, but hey, im only being honest......
Sincerely, Jay
HAHAHAHAHAHA, I love it..
Ive always wanted to ask the same questions because I don't understand a lot of the things blacks do either (just as im sure blacks/african americans, asians, whatever probably don't understand the reason whites do a lot of the things they do) But at least when they ask us about it they don't have to worry about getting shot!
SOME black people stink, eat nasty ass food, are loud and abnoctious, think they are better than everyone just because they are black. They do this because they are mad about slavery and act this way to show that they arnt slaves anymore and can do whatever they want...its a form of rebellion and pay back to the whites for putting them in slavery...BUT it wasnt white people who put them in slavery it was their own people because they would have never came here if they werent sold to the whites as slaves dur dur dur...in my opinion i love most black people because they are funny and cool and i love rap and the way they talk...they make me laugh and they laugh with me...if u are tight with them they will have your back i love the way they love one another and will stand down for eachother...end of story idc about what color anyone is as long as i can understand what they r saying then we r cool
Black women are loud, wow. People are loud. Being loud can not be pinned on any race. I've seen unruly loud kids and adults of all races so throw that one in the trash. When are people going to realize that God sees no color. People who are racist don't know God because if you did racism won't exist. When you can name your black friends or count them you are racist. I'm racist towards ignorant people, no matter the race.
Chris is an asshole and he should jump off any bridge of his choice.
p.s.
black women like white men and I don't think Jewish people got over the Haucuast...so no we are not over slavery. ass.
I don't think you are a racist, just the purist form of ignorant. Too stupid to know that what you say is completely incorrect. Too ignorant to realize that you can not put an entire group of anything into one category. Your ignorance shows in this blog, and I am not mad at you, I feel sorry for you.
Black guys like White girls for the same reason you do...they are submissive and easy as hell.
If you think this is funny, it is not. Try using things that MOST Blacks do, you are talking about Blacks on ghetto movies and ignorant people.
I would love to sit and talk about all the stupid things White people do. But I would be here all day.
Why do White people sit and try to depict every other group of people. Do they really believe that they are the better than everyone else. I hope not, I think overall you are the WORST group of people ever created. You have no special abilities except stealing and claiming things that others have already discovered. Ex. Christopher C discovering something that was never lost, and stealing so many Russian inventions and marking them as your own.
Do better.
This is easy...
1. Yeah...no you can't say the N-word in the presence of a black person. If you say it to one of your other white friends without a black person knowing, then it's like you went 95 on the highway and didn't get pulled over...you made it this time but don't make a habit of it. It's not as much like your "cunt" example, but more like calling your friend an idiot. You can call him that, but I can't. It's actually somewhat self deprecating.
2. They are loud aren't they? No real good reason for that one.
3. Yes we like white girls, and Asian girls and hispanic girls too. White girls just LOVE us. I hate to break it to you, but its the penis thing. Black girls don't really like white guys, again because of the penis thing. When you're on the right side of the penis thing you can treat a girl like whatever and she'll keep on comin back. Sorry bro.
4. Yeah we're still mad. Not mad mad, but a little ticked about it. It's more because post-slavery America was still very racist until like the 70s which wasn't that long ago. Had abolition cured racism I don't think it would be a big deal. Jews aren't mad in this country because they're just white people with curly hair and they weren't really discriminated against. Then in Germany the government ended up paying reparations (I won't go there).
5. Pig's feet is slave food. The fact that some black people still eat that junk shows you how slavery still affects us today.
6. Nah, DL ain't that funny honestly. But we laugh so hard at black comedians usually when they're making fun of white people. And white people are HILARIOUS.
7. When we say something is racist in front of a white person, it's just a test to see how uptight you are. The ones that laugh it off are cool, the ones that apologize are insecure about their racism.
8. I'm not going to tell you which rappers are cool at any given time. I know the answer, but again, this is a measure of how white you are if you don't just know.
9. Everybody you (or I) don't know looks alike. I still don't know the difference between Gweneth Paltrow and Cameron Diaz.
10. Yeah we spend big money on fashion. As a whole we have a lot more personal style, but some of us equate price with style which just isn't true. The pants are baggy because of, well, the penis thing I went over earlier. Baseball hats just look better bent. Watch baseball one day and find somebody with a straight bill. The tag is silly, but it's on there because black people like shiny new things and the tag makes it look like you just bought it.
Overall, I commend your effort to learn more about black people. I hope you have learned something
First of all, the reason why you don't understand black people is because of your privileged ass. It's a normal thing for you to look down on the culture of people who are not like yourself. Thats what the Europeans did when they went to Africa and started enslaving people to build their economies and wealth that they still have in place today. Your in the same boat as plantation owners and slave ship captains in my eyes.
I can say the same shit about white people that you say about black people. I thought you went to college, if you did you would have met a black woman whose name is not shaniqua. Your analysis of stereotypes shows me that in fact, you've never met and spoken with a black person in your life. Your only interaction with my race is through your television tube. How is that journalism? Sounds to me like a broken moth-eaten soap box. You and Bill O'Reilly should get together.
YES everything is about racism. Have you ever wondered why there are only a few black people living in the suburbs, or a handful in corporate america jobs? Racism is deeper than what you can see, because no one has every been racist to you, just prejudice maybe because you're an american. But racism is about a system put in place where there are some at the top and others at the bottom and this has pretty much been the way it's been for hundreds of years and hasn't changed. Which brings me to another thing, I still complain about slavery because whenever someone accuses someone else of being "un-american" I want to scream at them that this great country of yours was built on the backs and blood of slaves. And slavery did not end hundreds of years ago, in the history books it might have, but as an institution of control, it did not.
You still have <b>slavery</b>, but now it's called <b>capitalism</b>.
It's also clear to see that you are afraid of black people by your article. Afraid of their loudness, the way that we can be ourselves and not give a damn about what's proper or whatever. We are real, which you are not, obviously from your conjecture article which should NEVER be mistaken for journalism.
Why us normal white folk don't understand blacks is that blacks act wierd,eat wierd stuff that even smells awful, dress wierd, walk like a stick is up thier butt and thier is no hurry and definetly talk like they got crap in thier mouth!
In other words they are creatures imported from another planet to infest and degenerate our world (life and the planet was a lot better without them) ie. pre 1960's!
YOU ARE A RACIST JERK! I'M NOT EVEN GOING TO WASTE MY TIME CUSSING YOU OUT BECAUSE I KNOW GOD WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU IF HE HASN'T ALL READY!
If u want 2 fit in act like everyone else-B normal!
If ya want to stick out like a pus pimple on a babies smooth ass then your doing a good job and stay Ur whole life being a homie!
The same is true of rednecks-something a white person should'nt be proud of-but then they don't know better because they don't have brains (calling racing a sport, wearing corderouy shorts in 90 degree weather and shit-kicker boots, smelling like 7 week old broccoli) and the women, if u can call them that-is white trash and look their best at 18 y/o and when they are sleeping - when they get up they look the whole day like that w/o make-up and it's downhill after 19!
Trouble with this world is a) no one wants to speak the truth or is afraid to speak what they truely see out there and b) noone wants to take responsibility for their work- actions or inactions or do the job they are suppose to do!
Thats why there is still: winers/crybabies, lazy workers sitting on thier butts, liers, pissed-off-people-killers,politicians, some crooked lazy dumb cops, even dumber hoods, gangs, women who love to get under men's skins and being macho broads,bad sports/overpaid players & even worse X-games, death of pornography & sexual expression and rampant religeous big-mouths and scientist lock-in with thier personal agenda's forced upon all of us!
-Think about it anyone who's got some grey matter out there!
This world sucks, I wish we could all just walk into another one and start all over!
It gets worse every day! While the bad get away with all illegal sort of things and the good continue to suffer for it!
And if you got money your king if you don't your lucky that u barely survive 'cause most folks don't care & think only about themselves!
This whole round big blue ball is inself a comment!
And no one has the answers or even fakes it to try.

I thought this article was really funny. I am a black female and on most of the stuff he talked about, I have wondered the same thing...
i'm black and i thought this was really funny! it was all true and i'm sure i could post one right back about white people and u would think it was just as funny....people need to lighten up and learn to laught at themselves and look at things other ppl do....why do white ppl eat brussal sprouts? its funny cause my and my friend were playing a game we made called white or black..hes white and we just said random words..things.and phrases and said white or black...we BOTH got a rise out of it and thought it was funny and TRUE!! =]
im a african american female ..My name is Lynae wow..ur trynna bring our race down...itz okay fa blc ppl to say the n word to each otha b-cuz it a part of our slang iz like white people saying dude..but when a white person say it that shyt ant cool at all beacause ur not black itz just as simple as that..alot of white ppl are scared of people so they wont say it any way or they will get beat the fuck up... and yea slavery happen ova 100 years ago it like we can 4 give but never 4 get ..slavery waz on of the worst things that happen in history and to this day alot of dumb as white ppl still look at black people like dey ant shyt and like were should b treated as animals or sum type of sum of the earth..white ppl r so judge mentel its such a shame the way they look at black people..and i belive that u r a lil racist those are not just jokes u made..and almost all white people look the same ..i hate going out and i can never member which white gurl i was just talkin to..they all look the same well except the cute white boys that stand out..itz alot of ugly white boys..and alot of blavk men want white gurls because there easy..what i mean by easy is that they are freaky as hoes and they will give it up fast as hell lmao thats a shame...and also they will do wha ever a man say on the otha hand with black women u always gotta put up a fight..black gurls are loud because thats just the way they talk they want to be herd..black ppl wear the tag on their clothes because they want to show off and let every one know how much their shyt costed like duh..d.l. hughley is okay he a lil funny.. ur hipe as shyt with all these dumb as questions tho i can ask u white ppl a millon questions about yal..like why do all of u act all scared as shyt..yall b letting people disrespect da shyt outta yall on sum carzy as shyt..and most of yall throw on any thing half the time it don t match..why do white ppl act like they better then every one? it so much ohta shyt i just happen to find this on google and i wanted to read it but yeah i hope i answerd most of ur quetions

o yeah to all those dick head as black people who said itz funni itz fucking not...itz juz a shame u would never say no shyt like dat to me in my face
you don undstnd blk people stupid witie i would fuck you up if i saw you
You're column really pinpoints everything wrong with the world. As a young black women from the UK, I find your comments extremely offensive and feel that you do not have a real grasp or understanding of the complex issues that face minority groups ( not just black people). There really isn't much point trying to explain why your feature is offensive as i feel that it would be wasted on your level of ignorance.
seriously thats dumb that african americans can say the "n" word and others cant. if you dont like people calling you people that. then why the fuck call each other that. ha dumb. i swear you guys.. omg. but whatever i suppose, you guys are just hypocrites.
Well I'm an African American female and I must say that some of what you say is true. But how ever I must say that NOT ALL BLACK PEOPLE EAT PIGS FEET! Some black people don't evening eat pork. Another thing is there are other races saying Nigga (FAT JOE and DJ Klahe) we as black people say nigga and not nigger like while people said back in the day. When white people say it they just have to watch how they say it. Another thing you guy forgot to put in there "Why do Black people are Uncle Tom's?" That the biggest problem we face as black people. I not try to be a crying as brat but two things I must point out is that:
1) Why do white people complain so much about black people do and say all the time?
"We can say the n word and they can't?" some black people don't evening like that word and some have no problem with the word and there friends of other races saying it.
2) Why do white sit up here, say and assume that black people are broke and welfare dependents?
Not all black people are on welfare! Now that we gotten that out of the way. Most black people don't have money. Some are welfare dependents for a long time. That doesn’t mean it all of us. White people say the "only black people go to college are those who are on a football scholarship or something" By some families coming from a poor background isn’t no money for us to really go and future our education. Most us today parents were born in the 50's and 60's. When segregation was still going on and it didn't pretty much end after MLK died. It went on into the 70's and the early 80's.White people had good paying jobs before and after. Some were hiring black people for many high paying job. So black people took the jobs they could get and that affective their children, some of the children (our mothers and fathers) to drop out of school to help out. White kids however are on top when it comes down to going to college and being finical secure for the future generations
So why complain most white folks have it very easy! You’re not all ways stereotyped about where you’re from and the things you do. As far as black people go we do.
Wow, so many of you can't spell or use proper grammar. Good luck finding a job...
hahha, so.. i GO to school with a lot of black people..
and ugh.. seriously, going to a school w a bunch of them.. can MAKE you racist..
of course, not ALL black people are like that..
but.. yes, it is an inner city school. if some black kid hits you..
'FUCKIN BITCH, Get out my way.'
like YOU hit them..
but.. whats fun about this?'
you can always connect with them.. compare the stereo types.. and ONE day.. a certain black kid and I had a conversation on the word
'nigger'
He said he just didnt understand why white people had to say it..
'Maybe if they said 'Nigga' it would be different.'
But.. i explained to him, that *techincally, we are. we're just 'whiting up' the word.
same as we did to the word 'fashizzle'
by turning it into 'for shizzle.'
We are not infact trying to say 'Nigger' but.. use a different, less ghetto sounding version of 'nigga' which ultimately ends us back at.. Nigger.
and i also explained to him.. that a lot of times, we use it in incorrect context.. more or less like 'shit'. you smash your fingers in a door? 'Ahh! Nigger!' haha idk why.. but.. that seems to be how it goes.
He seemed to experience a bit of a paradigm shift..
but it was a really enjoyable conversation and we both learned a lot of things about the different things us white, and black people do.. and think.
I just think its funny that black people take number 9 seriously. The writer even said that he was kidding, and then you go on to retort that all white people look alike, completely proving this stereotype true that black people think all whites look a like.
And I think black guys like white girls because black girls are just so loud. They need a break at some point!
And to whomever said that white girls are easy and thats why black guys date them, then why is the teenaged pregnancy rate for african americans nearly 3 times that of whites?
And finally, black people cant reasonably still complain about slavery. I could grow up in philadelphia, go to an inner city school and work hard, take out a student loan to go to temple university community college, and that would be the beginning of my life out of poverty. What black people do not realize is that not all rich white people were born into families with money. Black people just use growing up in poverty as an excuse as to not take school seriously and then fill every other stereotype about themselves. Seriously, you guys need a culture change!
1. The N-Word. I never use "nigger" or "nigga." I can't stand slang or ebonics.
2. Why are black girls so loud? As a black woman, I'm very soft spoken. I don't understand why anyone is loud; it gets irritating after a while. The louder you talk, the more I ignore you.
3. Black men and white women. You can love whoever you want; I don't care, and if people have time to promote discord or jealousy for that reason, they're not really happy with their own relationship.
4. Slavery. How can I still be mad at slavery when I wasn't there to be mad in the first place? History is boring anyway.
5. Pig's feet. To each his own, but as for cooked chitterlings...I've neer seen or smelled them. After I heard they were intestines (used for excretion), I try my best to stay as far away as I can.
6. D.L Hughley is not funny (that's my opinion of course).
7. Rascim is still alive, but I tend to see it more in corporate business. It's nothing worst than being told you're "over-qualified" for a job...
8. Rap music. I don't care what music you listen to. I personally don't like rap. I lean more towards R&B.
9. Are we all twins? I think you should be able to distinguish one person from another unless you're blind or have serious eye issues.
10. If you have the money, flaunt it. I don't buy jeans or gym shoes, but I'll definitely splurge on some designer dress shoes or purses.
DISCLAIMER:
When you have to disclaim you are not racist, that leads me to believe it is very possible you are racist; but then again we all are to some point.
Now on to your Post:
You write about some very good points, although you use generalizations and blanket words and statements like: everything and all, FYI: nothing is absolute. but I am not here to completely tear your statements down, because I am not sure if you are serious or just ignorant to black culture.
I would say If you really want to know the answers to these questions, ask your black friends.
Seriously, get fucked. You're an idiot.
I found this to be damn hilarious with the way it was written, but that doesn't mean I genuinely believe everything written here is funny. =] Racism isn't good, not all black people are loud and eat pigs feet and fried chicken, and not all black people live in the ghetto. The ones that do act like the stereotypical ways listed here set a bad example for every other black person who acts respectably.
I am a 30 year old African American and I thought it was pretty funny. We joke about white people all day I don't see why they have to be so discreet about us. Fuck it, the shit was funny so move on. Now when people start believing the stereotypes thats when we have a problem... I know white people who love watermelon more than we do. As a matter of fact, my ex wife would order grits everywhere we went and she was Persian. I don't even like grits and it embarrassed me because they would bring it to the table for me and I would just point for them to give it to her.
I thought the article was excellent for what it was... A Joke!
Good Job I found it funny... Keep doing your thing
my nizzle lol.
1.well, The N word is pretty obvious. White people call each other crackers or whatever, girls call each other bitches.
3. I believe attraction is based on your surroundings and what you grow up around. I grew up watching the same friggin shows you did...Full House...90210...saved by the bell! Black people have to interact with white people, they have no choice! Where as white people can go through life never having a black friend! So yes we think the same white girls splattered across the media in the magazines and tv shows are hot! Maybe if there was more diversity in the media, white people would find other races attractive too!
This also leads into the comment about black people looking the same. They look the same because you see the same friggin stereotypes in the media! I can turn on the tv and see 5 different white girls...all different hair colors, different color eyes, different highlights in there hair. But then there is the one token black girl who always looks and sounds the same. Or the one token black guy who always looks and sounds the same. So white people(I mean everyone who isn't black) get a limited exposure.
Now this leads to dating! For example foreigners, will come to the US and date a white guy, before they will even consider dating a black guy. I blame the media! If they showed a bunch of fat girls on tv, and the view that fat was beautiful! Everybody would grow up thinking fat girls were hot!
I just know that I'm black, I date some white women because I think they're cute, but that goes for any race, such as Asian, Black or Latin. I think Pickled Pig's Feet are gross, and The N Word doesn't bother me as much as it bothers others.
But great writing, man. Made me chuckle.
This article was incredibly ignorant and also not funny. And I'm white.
I loooove black women
The article was incredibly funny!! The comments were incredibly scary. Could it be that the majority of people did not get that this was a satirical comedic article done well? lighten up! It is intended to be funny and not so serious. Blazing Saddles was the same way...it was satirical.
Funny article!
:D
WOW WELL THIS WHOLE THING JUST SET BACK BLACK PEOPLE 60 MORE YEARS...THANKS A-HOLE..U R ONE OF THE MOST RACIST MUTHAFUKERS OUT THERE..THIS WASNT FUNNY..
Being Black.
I Agreed With What Was Stated.
And Some Stuff I Didn't Really Think Was True Relating To All Black People In General.
Although I Felt That You Were Just A Tad Bit Extreme On Some Of Your Remarks And Comments,
I Like The Points You Made.
I Just Don't Like The Fact That Because You Spoke Up About What You Think, Other Cowards All Of A Sudden Has The Motivation To "Say What They Think". Those Are Usually The Ones That Start Getting Ridiculous, Serious (Racist-Serious), And Plain Ignorant.
i have to agree with this articles. stupid niggers. if they dont like america just go back to africa. you should have also touched on they stink, they have no jobs, all they do is crime and fuck, rape the white girls. thats why when ever i see a nigger tryin to cross my property i call the police. and when that doesnt work i put it into my own hands. obama is going to ruin this great country of ours. niggers should leave, they kill america.
All white girls love black dudes and all black dudes want white chicks. At this pace mixed (white/black) will be the most prominent race.
I would like to start THIS off by saying that you are the most ignorant individual i've never met. But for you to write this and post this takes guts. Yes you are like a pioneer. Saying things that i've heard just about everyday of my life takes guts and character. Congrats!
1- Its origin was to offend and belittle black people as a whole. I personally do not think its ok to say it regardless of the text, who's saying it, spelling, etc. And yes, when I hear it I do speak against it.
2- Not all black women are loud. That is very stereotypical. Anyone can be loud at times and if you were to post this, you should have included how other races do the same thing. Maybe they're loud b/c they feel they aren't being heard...My best friend is white and she is loud as hell!
3- True love has no color barriers, but some black men do date white women because they are typically seen as "easy" or "hoes". Others date them in revenge against white men who'd rape our women.
4- For you to say that Jews are not still angered about the Holocaust is completly false! As a person who's studied the Holocaust extensively and heard many survivors speak, I know for a FACT that there is still anger & conflict in Isreal over land and hatred towards Germans for this. There are still Nazis alive as there are Jews so that hatred will never die.
5- Until you actually try something you cannot comment on the taste. Every culture and background has their own food. Hispanics eat cow tongue!! People eat roadkill!! OXTAIL! HAVE YOU SEEN WHAT THEY EAT ON FEAR FACTOR!?!?!!?!?
6- DO you think Drew Carey is funny?
7- Until you live a day in a black person's shoes and experience the hatred against the race, then you have no idea what it feels like.
8- Because you know Vanilla Ice didn't say Ice Ice Baby! If you don't like it don't listen to the music but we don't comment on other music genres so don't on ours.
9- You are so fucking ignorant!!!!!! First of all define "minority". Are whites considered majority? Look around. There are more "minorities" than caucasians. Redefine that word. The first people were found in Africa so, doesn't that make EVERYONE from every RACE, CULTURE, BACKGROUND, SOCIAL CLASS, ETC. have similar facial features?
10- If you have the money to spend on shoes then spend it! I would just like to point out that you neglected the fact that there are many women out there who spend a MINIMUM of $500 on Jimmy Choo shoes. Or $1000's of dollars on designer apparel and accessories.
I'm gonna pray for you and hope that you get some sense knocked into you before some angry individual attacks you and does serious damage.
Only God can help such a lost soul as yours
Good Luck!
wow 'Offended Black Individual', your the ignorant fuck, life must really suck when it's impossible to detect sarcasm. Some fuckers like yourself feel the need to get all sensitive when clearly, as you said, an article like this could be written about any race, religion, retardation or stereo type... white people smell like dog when they come in from the rain... it was a joke...
You've prob got a big enough dick to go fuck yourself, feel free. My mate finds it hilarious that I joke that he is taller than me when he lies down... but of course you might find that racist as I'm stereotyping the idea that all black men have large cocks. It's all for humour man. Fuck... want to punch you so bad.
There is too much stone slinging between ppl, da hate you two spreading only escalates the situation resultin in more animosity and other similar lines from the black eye peas song where is the love.
Everyone has the right to interpret this as they see fit, I think the intention to be humorous and make a connection with blacks was throughout this article, whilst at the same time it seems to harbour a little racism as some comments seemingly go just a lil too far... like number 4, perhaps that one could of been reconsidered, feels unneccessary.
Like I find a joke like the following hilarious
'person 1': holy shit we have a problem
'person 2': like problem like; we are out of ketchup problem or terroist highjacking a plane 9/11 problem.
as will a lot of ppl, because everyone understands it, relates to it contextually (probably not a word)
whilst those who had suffered a loss during 9/11 will be disgusted, upset and troubled by the joke... its target audience man, if you dont like it, go away
no one will stop racism by shouting abuse at each other
I think things like this, perhaps like I said, a little less full on are great bridging tools
The offended black guy is stupid as fuck.
and because you studied the holacoast big fucking woop dude no one cares. and you may have talked to someone in the holacost but that had to have been 30 years ago because they are all probably dead now dumb shit.
I didnt study the holocost but i know that the jews dont bitch and moan about being killed while HITLER was alive.....
that guy has been dead for a shorter time than blacks were freed from slavery, and they dont bitch and moan.
the term "Nigger" was not intended to be racist, i am from the part of the country were it was all going on.
that term was given to people from nigeria because thats were alot of those slaves came from.
and honestly when a black person calls me cracker its not offense to me i think that the person who said it is just a dumb ass.
And really if you notice the black people as a race have gotten worse since they were freed and then eventually un-segregated.
and screw all that politically correct bullshit im speaking my mind.
the blacks have gone from being unsegregated, and they were treated better than before and black people at that time weren't so bad like they are today as a general group of people
blacks today think its cool to steal shit like those 200 dollar shoes he mentioned, and to get with white women when if what your saying is true which i doubt about there is more "minorites" than whites than why the fuck do you wanna take the "easy" way and get with a white woman how come you cant get with a black girl or something if there is so many more blacks than whites huh?
and another thing....when blacks were slaves they weren't killed in large numbers either. 6 million jews were killed! and they still dont whine about it
blacks werent killed like that they only were beaten if they didnt do what they were supposed to do, which was work.
and those slaves also were fed and given places to sleep and not be put in gas chambers and fried.
jews were killed and starved to death and made to walk MILES to get to places were they had to watch there friends die right in front of them.
btw im not jewish lol
maybe if blacks would not think it was cool to steal and be with white women becasue there SO EASY then maybe it would be better on them and racial tension would stop
im a white guy and im proud of my race and i am not racist i have no problem with blacks but "the N words" those people i dont like
and even for my own race...theres white trash too i dont like them..
I read the original article and only a few of the responses. There are stereotypes of most groups of people. I am a white woman, 58 years of age. Up until 5 years ago, I never had been around blacks in a social or work setting. I am now the only white in my office of approx 20 people. Only like 4 Hispanics. I have learned alot, first hand. The black women who are loud and "Ghetto" are the ones who are not as educated as the "professional" black women. I am not college educated, but I consider myself professional and I don't talk street language at work. So, the writer of the original article had better start seeking a different crowd of people to observe. I know of lots of white, loud, crude, low life women and men. I don't choose to hand with them. Some, I hate to say are family members so I have no choice at times. There was one co worker, mid 30's. Anyway, he must have only hung with blacks, because he would always say things and ask me things about whites. He was surprised that I listened to the Temptations music, ate pork chops, macaroni and cheese, greens. I am not kidding. He said that I must have dated a black guy, I said no. Then your mom must have, no. I told him that some of that type of food must be poor people's food, because my mom was poor at that time. He cracked me up. We got along so well. He learned alot about whites and I learned alot about blacks. I enjoyed it. One of the black women became a close friend of mine. We would go to each other's functions outside of work. I think that I was her only white friend because I was always the only white present. It bothered me when she would always introduce me by saying.....this is my friend Sally, she is not white, she is really black. I guess she was just saying to her friends that I was OK, so I just let it pass. Her and another black co worker were always trying to teach me the proper way to say sister (sista) then would laugh when I said it. I did not take offense, but would never do the same thing in reverse to them. One, because it is not nice and two, it could later be used against me for some dumb reason. One replier mentioned white girls being easy. Of course this is a generality, educated people know this. Many Mexican men believe this to be true because of what they see over the border in California on school breaks. The girls get totally drunk and ARE easy. Thus, the stereotype. I have worked with Mexican women who don't like me at first because I am a blond, white woman. They would tell me later after they saw that I was ok, that they did not like my type because they steal their men. I told them that they need to hang around with quality people, not low lifes. We have the power to break down these stereotypes by getting to know each other. Each race has every kind of person. Get to know the more educated ones in each group, you will enjoy the company of that person. This is meant to be a general statement. I think if you are a reasonable person, you know what I mean. I hope that I have expressed myself here the way I feel. I should not have to say that I am not prejudiced, you should be able to know by the way I conduct my life. I am thankful that we, as Americans, can give our opinion publicly and not have to worry about repercussions.
Being that for many years much to my dismay whenever a major black issue has come up the media is quick to run to jesse jackson and rev. sharpton to get the pulse of the black community. But those niggas are not our universal representatives and honestly they havent been a practicing member of black society since Reagan was in office. So whats white america to do when they want to know what REALLY going on in the black community???
They ask me, Mike.Dre universal expert on all things black, I write black, think black, talk black, walk black, F*ck black and smoke black (& milds). So being that is my fiduciary duty as the one of the last real niggas alive to be a spoken for the race, i will be more than happy to answer your questions:
1. We love saying the N-word and were arent going to stop, and most of it because its the one thing we can do that no one else can. That used to be dunking but ever since Brent Berry won the dunk contest that mandle has been held by the N-word. And if you are not black you should not say the N-word at all. If you do and a misc. ass whipping comes your way rest assured that you warned.
2. No one knows we've (black men) have been asking ourselves that question for many years.
3. Black men love white women, tall white women, short ones, skinny ones, especially fat one. We havent found a white girl we didnt like. Let me just put it this way, if white girls had huge asses like black girl, black pussy would go out of business, real talk. Its just an added incentive that seeing us with white girls really gets under white guys skin.
4. Hell yeah we still mad!!!
5. Yes, and its very tasty if cooked right (by a black grandmother preferably of southern decent)
6. Personally I do, but its not secret that alot of black people dont. But do you know we LOVE Chris Rock!!!
7. Yes (next question please)
8. Shit we dont even know the answer to that ourselves, these rappers flip flop from gangsta rapper to commercailized product placement dummys seemingly overnight at times. But here's a list of rappers sure not to sell out anytime soon:
Mos Def
Common
Talib Kweli
Immortal Technique
Dead Prez
E-40
Too Short
Bun B
Ludacris
OutKast
9. Everyone not white looks alike to white people especially white cops. Though Barack Obama or Will Smith and T-Pain look nothing alike.
10. Yes sometimes more, Ive seen men older black men with 300-400 dollar dress shoes (Gators mainly). Its no secret black people love to be fly and when it comes to be fly and looking good...you have to pay the cost to be the boss. I cant believe white people spent 200-300 dollars for 7 jeans and shop at aborcrombie as over priced as that place is sheeesh!
For the record: There is a different between loving black culture and black icons on television and loving black people. Big difference.
My g-ma is from the uk----here in cali she still is able to find "pickled pigs feet" in a jar.....europeans and blacks---get that shit outcho mouf!
fuckin ridiculous
Lets debate the damn Indians and casinos-- I want to go to school free how bout a nice Indian knock me up so i aint gotta do shit to pay for my child.
Its an insult to "da hood" when a black dude dates a white girl-- all the black bitches get more hyphy attitude and feel inferior
when a black bitch dates a white dude- its cuz white folk have $ , her last black boo couldnt pay her bills so she caught in her white palmed hands a man of foundation
I think the point we all are missing ( by the way I am a black male) is the fact that for sterotypes and all kinds of discrimination to disappear is to find commonality with each other. If we all decide to just be people instead of black or white or hispanic or asian or hawiiian pacfic islander, we would find we are more alike than we are different. We all sleep, piss, eat, go to work, have sex, talk to our friends, and love our family. These things focus us not on our differences but on how we are so much alike. Yes our differences are important and make us who we are, but our differences do not have to be the main focus of articles and general conversations among each other. If we sit and talk to each other and talk about common things (like how bad gas prices were or how bad this economy is) we will find that all black people don't look alike or all black people don't eat pig feet, and we will see these things for ourseleves instead of getting an image that mainstream America feeds us. I believe communication is the key and communication will break the chains of pre-exsisting ideologies that we have fed ourselves since the first African slave was sold to the European sailor. Thanks for reading.
To the guy who called blacks animals...
Would you really like me to recant the ATROCITIES that white people have done to the world since the beginning of time? Centuries of leading wars after wars, centuries of enslavement, centuries of crimes against humanity, but we are the animals? Dude, are you serious?
And white people do some serious shit. Animals? I cant turn the paper without seeing or hearing about a white man bombing up something, serial killing, or going to China to f*** little boys. Who are the real animals? Do you really want me to give a history lesson and compare the shit that we do overall? I just had to address this. Don't get me wrong, we've done some shit and we keep doing stupid shit. But, your shit is no better. In fact, it's much worse pound for pound. The only difference is, ya'll use the law to legalize your crimes.
Other than that, funny article. Hey, blacks do it and I can't be mad if you do it. I think it's a very narrow perception because blacks are just so unbelievably diverse. But, do you!
As for white women being the standard of beauty? YOu must be talking about the standard of beauty for white people. Dont get me wrong, I see some beautiful white women but c'mon, the average black man I know is not into the white girl's body type. I am a black woman and I dont know ONE black woman who envies the look of the white woman. Ummm...dont think so - sorry
Funny thing is, also, that rappers are rich because white people buy that shit. And, funny that you didn't mention all the positive music that comes from a lot of artists. I don't talk about y'all when y'all bang your heads against walls sounding like Satan and biting off chicken heads - weird.
As far as slavery??? It's because of slavery that I can't trace my heritage. It's slavery that stole my generation from me, took away my choice. When you study slavery, its impact, and see how we were treated as a people, how the hell are you going to tell me to just "get over it" because "jews have gotten over the holocaust" and dont bitch and moan about it. Shucks, the civil rights movement JUST ended. Who do you think you are to tell me to just "get over it"? Y'all are some ignorant people, I tell you.
Now, I don't believe whites are to blame for many problems. Shucks, some blacks are just trifling and lazy (like some white people). But, don't try to minimize the experience please.
And who says that it did not promote the income gap? I do research for a living and yes, you guys ALWAYS had a hell of a head start. It doesn't mean we can't get there, but there are a whole load of other factors that make it ten times harder but hey , I won't expect any of you to understand so why am I even bothering?
And loud? Yeah, and if I go out without seeing white people falling over stupidly drunk (yeah, stupidly drunk) frothin at the mouth dancing to the same rap music that you seem to think is degrading...that would be the day.
First of all, I take your article as a satire that was meant to call out ignorance, as you have said. I enjoy satires. But since you guys have taken this thread so deep let me add my two cents.
A. Only ignorant people want to use such an ignorant word. No one walks around saying hey what's up my lyncher. I'm black and I don't like it. Alot of people have decided to not use the word. I don't think all white people say get'r'done because some do. It literally translates as braindead.
B. Maybe some black men, like some white women because they actually think they're cool beans as a person. Its such a nutty idea it just might work.
Hank. You are one sad sad sad man.
Bobby and Hank, go fuck yourselves.
I think white men are SEXY!!!!! yea most (no all) of it was unkind but it was still funny tho..I love America FREEDOM OF SPEECH BABY.
Oh and when in doubt don't say the N-Word.... some ppl are just tryin to test you..don't fall for it

Ohmygod, this was the funniest shit ever! I practically started crying from laughter in the middle of study hall, LOL. These are the questions that haunt my mind.
The original poster of this thread is a smart person. I like his idea.
I'm soooooooooooooo not into black women. The women, most of them, look like men. And their lips and arses are so friggin' huge. Just not into it.
SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH YOU ...YOU RACIST PERSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
white men can't handle a fat ass. they only like fake boobs on bleached blonde hoes.
First of all.. you say you're not racist, this is racist and its a stereotype, NOT ALL BLACK PEOPLE ARE THE SAME AND ARE NO LIKE YOUR DESCRIBE. why dont you just go get a life instead of writing a stupid blog like this!
lol im black but thought this was hilarious, its just true
Portugese people are brown! MINORITY!
It's ACLU, jackass.
JD - Very smart post. It was witty and the satire was astute. Unfortunately, what the below comments reveal is a community of people who just don't talk. We as a people don't understand each other and we really don't try. It's kinda sad. The hilarity of your post is lost in some of the negative reactions that it elicits. Of course black folk do things that others would find strange. Shit, I find it strange sometimes and I'm black. That said, we (collectively) have to learn to laugh at each other. Until then I'll keep using my shiny $200 Air Jordan’s to attract hot white chicks who suffer from penis envy.
Well played my friend....oh...and don't ever use the N-word around another black person unless you've been given a pass. Not because it make sense (I agree with you...it makes no sense at all) but because I don't want to see you get hurt.
Make it an Outstanding Day!

Eminem is the best rapper in the world, i know the world is going crazy when the best golfer is a black guy and the best rapper is a white guy, ANYWAYS that's just skin colour i mean get over it niggas !!!
1. Notice the two words are spelled differently (one w/ an "er" and the other w/ an "a")! Actually Negro is (I believe) Spanish for "black" and comes from the Latin "niger" meaning the same! But pray tell, if your father had a certain term of endearment or pet name for your mother would it be ok if you called her the same? Ever call your mom "honey" or your father "big daddy"? Just b/c some folk call one another a given appellation doesn't mean it's for everyone! However, there are some who do in fact get a "pass" if/when they know how to use the word! Many Caucasians or others took this term and turned it into something to be loathed, hated, feared and be embarrassed by! They meant it as an insult! I've had some friends that used to call one another "cracker" or "honky" but I wouldn't dare feel this was ok for me to do! I wasn't reared that way! Would it be okay if "blacks" went around using blanco as a racial slur made affectionate term?Oh and another thing bruh, whenever you use the word "Denigrate" you've actually used the "N" word! Look it up! The REALy ?tion is why are you worried about it? If you are not a millionaire do you rant about why you are not amongst Forbes' elite?
2. Don't know why African-American women are so loud! Why is ANYONE at ANY given time loud? Do you affirm ONLY "sistahs" are loud and white women are not? Might want to think about this ?tion again bruh! I will admit that we as a people often are very overly dramatic at times but I also believe any race can be this way intrinsically!
3. We, African-American men, like ALL manner of women of ALL races! You don't? Being attracted to someone is just that! I don't know of any "brotha" that has enough time to go after white women just to piss someone off...who does that?
4. Why wouldn't we still be mad at slavery? Has much REALLY changed that much? Have they EVER totally tried to correct the wrongs that we done us? Why then are text books still chalk full or lies and/or historical erroneous fallacies that keep African-Americans and European-Americans in certain lights? Neither of our lineage originated in America but yet "whites" still have more rights than anyone whether here or abroad! How fair is that? Did the Holocaust take place on American soil where ALL men were supposed to be treated equally? No? How then do you make the parallel! What Hitler (who was for all intents and purposes "white" although German) did to the Jewish people was despicable, unfair and totally biased (in favor of the blue-eyed, blond hair arian nation he sought to build)! That was in Germany...what is America's excuse?
5. Do you eat pig's feet? I personally do not nor do I eat most of the stereotypical "soul food"! But what if all of us did what then? Is that worse than eating calamari, or sushi? What about shark or octopus, snail or caviar? Heck, is it not uncommon for ANYONE to eat a chicken's embryo? How about cow tongue...umm umm (not so much!). Know what ALL goes into that all-American foot long? I don't favor chilled monkey brain either nor do I lose sleep b/c some folk do (shout out to Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom!) so why are you!
6. No D.L Hughley is not funny to us all...neither was Bob Hope or Jerry Lewis! Heck sometime Pryor was a pain and Murphy was a bit much! Chevy Chase is the man though...Fletch Lol! Not sure your nationality but is that ALL people of your race like exactly the same things?
7. No everything is not racist...what kind of ?tion is that? Racism is racist! Do you think America was/is REALLY ready for an African-American President? Folk don't like their managers to be of color let alone one in the highest office! Mr. Obama has achieve a great, respectful and honorable milestone for ALL people let alone those of color! Make no mistake about it though, He played the part he HAD to to get there and plays the part now (as it were)! Make no mistake that it helped him tremendously that he was of mixed race! I think he is a fine man and well equipped for the task of presidency but no one should be foolish enough to think the next 40 some odd presidents will all be African-American (or any other nationality for that matter!). Many did/do not want him there in the first place and are awaiting his fall just to confirm they told us so!
8. What rapper is okay to like? What the heck is this: "Brotha may I"? You like whomever you like...that is rediculous! Which KKK member should I befriend and "show the way"? Which ACTOR that portrays a thug, gangster, murderer, thief, child molester, adulturer etc. should I like? You must really take rap/hip hop more seriously than you should! But then again, that goes to show how great entertainers those guys must be b/c obviously they've got you fooled and are making millions off doing so! Oh and I can tell you haven't brush up on your history/fact checking regarding Snoop! It's asinine to think Calvin Broadus came up with the whole "fa'shizzle" lingo! Do us all a fav and get off the kiddy porn internet sites and look of E-40 or better yet Mac Dre who were coining and popularizing that bay area slang back in the 80's! And what do you know about the LBC really? I mean I don't know you and am not from Cali but if you are then you can't plead ignorance in this case bruh...just foolishness!
9. We "look alike" in many ways just as human beings all look alike (usually)! Since we ALL come from the SAME mind of God and historical genetic pool...well it should be obvious! Needless to say that those who migrated this or that place developed a certain trait...so on and forth! All of us don't look any more exactly the same as any other race! Now, if you look more like the pool guy or milk man or plumber than our father...that's between your mom and your fam bruh! Lol! (Just kidding...easy! Well actually that was for having those pictures up top!)
10. We buy them...well...b/c if you want those shoes that's usually what one does (God forbid any of us should steal them!). If you can only afford cheaper articles of clothing bruh then do you...that's the American way! If I want Gucci or D&B or Prada or John Paul Gaultier or BMW or Maybach or a Van Gogh or Rembrandt etc. I have to fork up the $$$! Should it be any less for Phat Farm or Jordan brand or Nike or Sean John or Rockawear or Cookie Jean (made by the same person that makes 7 jeans)? You can't be serious!
I know you wrote this a time ago but I couldn't resist replying! Hopefully by now you've matured a bit yes?

The most interesting stereotype of all that I'm getting off these responses is the "I'm 'bout to fuck you up, white boy!". Really? You think so? Because the concealed weapons permit and the .45 I keep strapped to my waist all the time begs to differ. I'm disgusted by the "I'm black, therefore I automatically beat your ass so be intimidated" attitude. Those of us that fought in a war would be more than happy to see just how bad you're about to fuck me up, and not throw a single punch, but use our training to mangle your bones into a shape no one would be able to recognize. Just representing for the crazy as hell veteran white guys that will end you if you try to hurt us or intimidate us.
Well for one, some of this stuff is true about a lot of black people. but me being half black myself i think i can put my .002 cents in. Not every black person is fucking stupid and says shit like ima kick your ass white boy. All people are different and you cant say just because you see some stupid ass black person making an idiot of himself, that you can deduce that all black people have that ignorant mentality. All people have a mind of they're own, they think act and ARE different regardless of skin color. The stupid people you witness most likely grew up around stupid people so stupid runs in the genes. Try to actually gauge a persons personality before you make a rational judgment about that person. just my .002 cents
Hey Mattman704...hope all is well!
What puzzles me about your post is that you seem to allude that us Black Men come off as: "we can whip ANYONE @ ANY given time!" on some intimidation typeness! Yet if you're talking about fighting (fisticuffs; hand to hand combat if you will) why bring up your 45! I'm not a violent dude bruh so don't take this as that at all. I just found what you said kinda odd! If you left the gun part out and just spoke of your military training that would make more sense of being able to defend yourself! But bringing a gun to a fist fight? Seems like you pointed toward a stereotype in Black men but revealed your own!
Anywho, on another tip I think it's cool that you excercise your right to bear arms bruh (as long as you do it legally!). The prob I have is how in the world is it that if I, as a Black Man, carry the same gun LEGALLY I'd either get shot on the spot by the so-called cops or what not or harrassed to the fullest extent or stereotyped as a thug, gang member, cult or insurrectionist (Black Panthers)? Not saying this can not happen to a White Man (remember Waco?)...just saying it's more probable to happend to a Black Man! Case in point, let me walk down the streets of Arizona or any other state that upholds the "right" to bear arms and publically display my assault riffle hand gun (heck even a BB gun) and 9 times out of 10 I'd be shot dead on the spot or worse, maimed and somehow have the story spun to the point where I was a terrorist! Yet the other day a White Man (I assume for various reasons he was White) marched in a rally right outside of a meeting where the President of the United States was holding! THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES man! This dude has an AR-something or another right outside the door! Now, again, let just ONE Black Man have done the same thing with a Whiter President in office...the story might have turned out quite differently!
Anywho, whatever you do bruh...be safe and thx for fighting for us in the Armed Serives! That took a LOT of humility and sacrifice on your part and I personally thank you for protecting this country...regardless of color, race, creed, demographic and/or political party! Men and women who serve this country should be held at one of the highest honors and respect!

I think that this article is great! People may believe that this article shows ignorance, however it shows truth. People state that these were all stereotypes well this is what people see about black people. Black people are loud! Black people do complain to much about slavery..and why are balck people so upset at the white people of today for something that neither race were part of. Black people make no sense using the n-word..it's truly a double standard! I believe if white people or any other race for that matter shouldn't say it neither should black people. For something to be soo offensive why have it in your vocabulary. Black people say how white people are so ignorant..REALLY c'mon!! Black people do play the racial card way too much..it gets really old! Maybe if black didn't act the the way they do maybe people wouldn't write articles about it. It's not stereotypical it's truth!
I usually tend to stay out of threads like this but i cant for this one. The poster above is a fucking idiot. I'm guessing for one you live in the south. Not all black people are loud. I am black and i perform none of the idiotic behaviors you portray black people to do. Yes alot of black people are loud, and yes its fucking annoying. But you cant generalize black people as if they share the same mind set. Having that mentality just shows that your naive and ignorant in so many ways. How can you define what a standard actually is if you haven't experimented on a vast percentage of the population? Your standard is probably in the ghetto town you most likely live in where almost all the black people that inhabit the area have no education and probably cant fucking read. So of course yes, if you are the least educated you would be annoyed by them. I'm guessing you have the idea that blacks are inferior and/or stupid for acting that way. All i can say for that is, since I'm growing bored of laughing at your stupidity, is come to someone where else besides Louisiana and see if you still have that same mentality. because judging by the way you present yourself, you don't appear to be any smarter than my fucking dog.
slavey was 400 years plus the stupid kkk. and i would like to see you call me a nigger to my face whiteboy. oh yeah tell your wife,daughter,aunt and niece to suck my dick. now thats the truth and stereo type that
why do you even care about what we like. Are you attracted to a black man or something. Here is a list why do white people smell like dogs, why do you think rednecks are cool, why do you ask dumb ass questions that have nothing to do with you. And if you dont understand why you shouldnt use the N word, say it to me and I'll show you why. Take some classes and work towards a degree instead of displaying your ignorance for millions to read. YOU SUCK!!!!
Generally, if you feel the need to begin an article by explaining how incredibly unracist you are and extolling the virtues of your hypothetical black friends, you're about to say something racist. Also, way to make stereotypical points already made several times over by writers with greater skill.
This article just shows how ignorant some people are. Maybe you should actually try and ask a few black guys these questions instead of posting this bullshit from the safety of your desk!
These are just some of the typical stereotypes of black people, and dont be retarded and think that white people dont have sterotypes that are just as bad and white people have just as many. The only difference is that you dont see as many black people taking time to write foolish articles asking ignorant and borderline racist questions about white people. The reason why we dont is because we dont give a fuck why white people do what they do.
And if you think we complain about slavery to much then maybe white people should have the same amount of years being slaves and then see how long it takes you to get over it, which will definitely be longer than us as you see alot of white people getting emotional over lil things like getting a flat tyre.
I have a question what is up with REDNECKS? and what is so cool about black people and their names please tell me about this link and what is a 'ghetto' name if anyone has a good ex.
http://www.2babynames.com/ghetto-names.shtml
NO ONE NEEDS TO READ THIS-THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE WHOLE 'RACE'THING MENTIONED ABOVE
(the people talking about their 'black friends' {Nicole and H} to me are being kinda offensive and if you want to not sound racist dont say "I'm not racist I have a [insert race] friend")Sorry for makeing this super long and it was cool to read
1) the N-word is just like everyother 'insult' that people call each other, i might not call my girlfriend the c-word but i call other stuff (ex: hooker ho tramp slut...ect.) and its not only black people say it wigers and anyother people who lived around other people who use it in my mind you have to be REALLY not like somebody or REALLY good friends (mostly the latter)
2)Black girls just wanna be heard like every other girl they just do it in a diff way, i know many black girls who can control their volume the real question is wHY DO tH3y TaLk/tYP3 L!k3 D!s?????
4)Not every person is mad about slavery, i think i should be able to bitch about it all i want to until it is eather 1-in history books for school kids(not just for college kids) or 2-there is a
slavery museum cause the Jews have one why cant we have one?
5)It's Chitlins or Chitterlings and it's made from pig intestines, I don't eat any of that but it comes from (once again) slavery
6)The people who I know who say mean it as a joke and dont say it all the time infact they barely say it, saying racest is a big step (in my mind), me and my friends just say "is 'cause im black." oo and the whole GWB thing you are not the first person to say that 'ear'body n da mama' was saying that
7) Other people can't tell you whta rapper you should like. Eminem is cool people like to him, and I don't always blame the rapper for what is put out because a rapper can't make it with out a producer and fans and you need a producer befor you get fans (i'm sure the phrase is "Fo Shizzle my nizzle")
10)Rich white people do it, rich people do, white people do it, PEOPLE DO IT. Look it up on Urban Dictonary.Its a trend Im sure if you were to see a picture from back-in-the-day you would ask 'Why are they walking around looking like that.(the question is why sag but still have on a belt? and Have you ever spelled saggin backwords everyone should try it and learn what it means).You don't fold it 'cause it's the trend and so is keeping on the tag, why would people fold it in other years.Do you mean the price tag or the sticker?'cause the sticker shows that its a real fitted cap.
i second tht most of wht you are saying is black girls are loud wen they wanna be and guys listen to rappers like 50 cent.
and d.l. hughley is wack sometimes.
but check this out some of us listen to eminem and some of the guys really do like white girls. but everything else about slavery and us likin wht food we do if its chitlins or pink feet or wht ever mite sound wierd to u is our heritage and our background
everything your sayin is you opinion and you are allowed to say wht you please but wht we do is wht we do and im pretty sure alot of blacks have things to say about white people.
signed,
me..
p.s.
about us eatin stuff you dnt kno about or never tried
sausage is cased in pig intestine
:)
HOW DARE U!!! UR SOOO WRONG ABOUT THAT "WHY ARE YOU BLACKS STILL MAD ABOUT SLAVERY?" CRAP. WE AREN'T! IF YOU DONT RECOGNIZE HISTORY, IT IS BOUND TO REPEAT ITSELF, AND THAT IS WHY THE BLACK COMMUNITY IN AMERICA GIVES SOOO MUCH ATTENTION TO SLAVERY IN AMERICA. OUR ANSESTORS WENT THRU MORE SH** THAN YOURS DID, SO SHUT THE HELL UP COZ U DONT KNOW WHAT YOUR TALKIN ABOUT. AND NOT ALL BLACK PEOPLE ARE LIKE THE STEROTYPES YOU ALL SEE IN THE MEDIA, UR STYLE OF THINKING IS UNBELIEVABLY OFFENSIVE YOU DOUCH SMELLING BITCH ASS PRICK!!!! OH, AND BY THE WAY, UR NOT FUNNY!!!!! ROT IN HELL YOU RACIST BASTERD!!!!!
you think that if you don't continue to bitch about slavery it will come back?
girlll, did you not notice? barack obama be all up in the white house. so i don't think you need to worry about it, or bitch about slavery anymore.
In response to #4 ok, black folks as a whole don't "Bitch" about slavery. Certain black people may have negative comments on slavery, why? because it was horrible and its consequences along with the many years of segregation and racism that followed are still with them to this day. Aside from the obivous hardships of forced labour, black people had to endure so many injustices following slavery, that they could easily forgo the slavery itself and just focus on the racism of the "free years". Imagine if your grandparents were sprayed with firehoses in the street for protesting against their governments refusal to provide equal opportunities to go to school and to get good jobs and to be treated fairly. Imagine their neighbors hating their skin color and features so much that they refuse to interact with them i.e. allow them to eat in their restaurants or sit next to them in movie theaters or on public buses or even drink from their water fountains. Now imagine that even after laws were enacted to give your grandparents the right to do these trivial things that they had to fight tooth and nail for, they were harrased, beaten, and even killed for doing them. All this actually happened to black people about 45 years ago in the 1960's. Around the time some of your parents were born. And hey, quiet as its kept alot of the attitudes and ramifications from that time period still persist and are active in this day and age so, um YEA it's definitely still a hot topic homie.
Agreed. (about the civil rights travesties)
Yea!! you made my boy Emerce get all M.L.K on your Portuguese Azz
I found some of the things in this article to be pretty funny. Edgy humor. However, I must say the blatant ignorance between blacks and non-blacks in the comments is ridiculous.
1. Stop comparing Slavery to the Holocaust. They were during two different time periods, they were two different things, and therefore, are not comparable.
2. Stop crying about the past. Slavery and Holocausts go on everyday in Africa, South America, The Middle East, and other random remote locations in the world. Instead of waiting for reparations, apologies, etc, why don't we put our time to good use, learn from history, and stop it from repeating itself.
3. There are poor lazy ignorant black people, just as there are poor lazy ignorant white people. There are black whores and white whores. There are black MENSA candidates and there are white MENSA candidates. There are Black olympians (Usian Bolt), and White olympians (Michael Phelps). Point: Shut up about who's race is better. There are good and bad in both, and despite what the media skews, THERE ARE GOOD AND BAD IN BOTH.
4. The term "nigger" should NEVER BE USED. It is not cool, it is not cute, and you look dumb using it. The only exception is when someone is acting particularly dumb, in which a white person probably should not use the term due to the connotation of it coming out of their mouth.
Oh, and for you idiots that want to say anything to me about "how would I understand the blight of the minority", um, I'm Afro-Cuban (meaning "Black Cuban"), Cherokee, French and Irish. So yea, I'm speaking out on behalf of all groups.
Now that that's finished, if you don't have anything intelligent to add, then shut the hell up.
...but yea, this post was comical.
im black. i love you. you have just said everything that I have always wanted to say (well most) especially in reference to the N-word. Thankyou thankyou thankyou.
Got you are an ass. Way to set race relations back. I'm so sick of white people like you.
YOU ARE THE BEST DUDE! THE FUCKING BEST! ALL BLACK PEOPLE COMPLAINING SHOULD SHUT THE FUCK UP! IM BLACK AND I FOUND THIS HILARIOUS. IM REPOSTING THIS ON MY BLOG www.myfuckingopinion.wordpress.com
keep doing your thing alan. ahahahahah

Jews use the holocaust like blacks use slavery.
Blacks can freely make white jokes and play the race card because it's like compensation for the past. As soon as they realise it's themselves as a people they are harming and stop acting like that, then they can move forward.
Jews play upon the fact that throughout history they have been persecuted. They holocaust is their top trump. Anyone who questions it, or criticises them is an anti-semite.
I say, if it wasn't for the holocaust and slavery...these peoples wouldn't be where they are today.
Black president of the most powerful country on earth, can only be good for africa, he's already visited, Otherwise nobody would really care about the place. Great athletes etc.
And Jews control most of the world's media, have Israel and major influence in the world.
Whatever way you group people together, nationality, race, sex etc...they will always use what they can to what they percieve to be their advantage.
I say stop using past events as an excuse for your own failures and misery.
I say whatever you hear on top 40 stations is gonna suck. People are basing these generalizations about music on a small percentage of songs. If you look past the mainstream to the underground you find so much more substance.
Dat shit was funny!! Period! We joke around with each other about all of that all the time. Its funny when I say it and dat shit is still funny when u say it.
umm actually every black guy that i know that ONLY dates white chicks.. say that its because black chicks are for the most party loud and ghetto. and because they're always trying to fight and argue. but not all black girls are like that..
my best friends kimiko & bianca are very classy :)
Wow you're truly ignorant!! One again you prove just how predjudiced white america still is!! You're judging an entire race by the worst of it's kind! I kow this for a fact, because I'm a highly educated, positive black man, that always carries himself as such! Maybe you need to consider looking futher into a subject before you post your biased perspective
of the black community. Consider your sources next time..., try not to look into the ghetto for your opinions. How wouldy ou like it if people looked at the trailer parks for theirs??
Black guys will have sex with anything, thats why fat white girls love them.
im not judging anyone.. if anything im calling out the black guys that judge black women.. if you look close YOU RETARD at what i posted.. i never said anything about black women.. what i put in that post is only the responses that ive gotten from black guys when i ask them why they only date white chicks. & i know there are negative aspects of each race. & youre a fucking moron because you said "How would you like it if people looked at the trailer parks for theirs??" my guess is youre suggesting that anybody who lives in a trailor park is white trash? yeah well i like how you tried to call me prejudiced.. but honestly i think youre just a hipocrite. and dont you ever in your pathetic little cartoon life come at me with some "poor pitiful me, all these prejudiced white people blah blah blah" there are plenty of black people who are RACIST against whites.. get your fucking knowledge up you "highly educated, positive black man" ... who says that shit anyways?? and since you want to let everyone know that youre a " highly educated, positive black man" then let me tell you something... i think -my three year old, not yet educated, black/white neice- knows more about this topic than you do!! & one more thing.. its so easy to say youre a " highly educated, positive black man" WHEN NOBODY KNOWS WHO THE FUCK YOU ARE!! MR. Anonymous.
i know its suppose 2 b a joke but those are steriotypes im a black female im never loud i do think whites look the same i will never it pig feet it looks so nasty i never use the ''n'' word that disrespectful and not lady like
I think every point u were trying to make was a racist one...I got 1 4 ya, y do white girls get drunk then sleep with their stepfathers???? because white people r nasty n deserve 2 b on display @ a zoo, LMAO!!!

I mean I want b ignorant n not make sense either, if u can y cant I
1. It's used as a form of "brother/sister," similar to how women call each other bitches. Don't lie, you've heard it.
2. I ask the same thing, actually.
3. Yes.
4. Our more ig'nant (ignorant) brothas are, but then again most of them also have 15 kids.
5. Yes, and mind you that pigs feet was a white man's invention. And it's not "a" chitlin (there's no g, except when you buy those disgusting white pales of 'chiterlings' from the market.) Chitlins are pig intestines, usually served with, what else, hot sauce. I don't recall you saying anything about the scottish eating haggis, however. I suppose it's okay for white people to eat sheep heart, liver, and lung with mutton fat boiled in sheep stomach?
6. Never head of him. Lemme check... He's decent, but not quite Chris Rock, or Dave Chappelle before the rehab. Most of his jokes are targetted toward blacks, so...
7. Everything. Is. Racist. Again, ig'nant niggas trying to put blame on everyone but themselves.
8. If you're asking 'who it's okay to like?' you're doing it wrong. Listen to who you want to listen to and don't take shit for it, else ya just a poser. Or a tool. Maybe both.
9. Because.... if we didn't look alike... you couldn't call us by the same race. Duh.
10. Only two types a niggas spend that much money on clothes. Rich niggas. Dumb niggas.
Get over yourself of course you're not a racist --trailer trash has no power in America just big potty mouths plus you're too ignit to run anything. I agree with Shay Shay, this posting sucks and "is about as funny as a documentary on child abuse."
I hate to say this but, I'm black and don't like most black people because, they are so embarrassing and crude. I can't handle most black men and their aggressive ways so, I have never dated a black man.
I used to see maybe 1 every week and most of them were pretty decent. I recently moved to a new city and I see black people everywhere, everyday. It's like the more you blacks there are the more B.S there is. I can't take it anymore.
Today, some chick whipped out her boob and starting breast feeding while singing to her child on the SUBWAY!!!! What the heck?!?!?
I can't tell you how many guys I've seen rapping and dancing around in public. What are they thinking? Are they thinking? Do they think they look cool or something? With all the stereo types you think more black people would behave like decent people to dispel all this ideas. UGHHHH!!
I'm going back to my hometown. I can't take this crap anymore. All this nonsense behaviour makes me have to work extra hard to prove that i'm not like this.
DO SOMETHING USEFUL FOR GOODNESS SAKES!! Stop with the dancing, singing and dropping the "N" bomb.
Good points. I wondered about these too.
Also, people need to seriously effing chill on this site before they launch a bitch fight commenting on HUMOR ARTICLES.
Some people just don't get it, do they? Guess so.
Black people are the most disgusting race on the face of the fucking planet. Bullies, lazy, racists, cheaters, they smell bad, they dress in ridiculously high valued clothes (as if they are trying to be better than everyone else, yet they constantly complain about what has been done to them). What is up with the broken English? At what point did black people decide to sound as retarded as they look? Their music is awful, their accents are horrible, They all look exactly the same to me. In short, black people are just plain nasty monkeys!!
As a white woman I would like to agree with a point made in earlier comments. White women, for the most part, aren't just easy. My black boyfriend had to chase me for six months before I finally agreed to go out with him. Also on the topic of black women being less submissive, I wouldn't really know because I have never dated a black woman but I do think that less black women are willing to put of with the whiny shit that white men put on their girlfriends. I know I can't! Also I have hips and big boobs my black boyfriend loves that about me. The majority of white men don't share that sentiment despite that with the exception of those two areas i would be a size four! White women are not courageous for dating black men the majority of white women that I know and myself feel that it is no big deal. I really don't understand how this topic controversial.
ps. to the guy before me, you're pathetic.
LOL! Jews don't bring up the holocaust all the time?!?!? WHAT planet are you living on??? LOLOLLOLOLLOLOLLLOLOL! Jews (especially hasidic) are ALWAYS bringing up how they're discriminated against and the holocaust. And you know what? So what if they do? We should all remember the evil and injustices that happened in this world... there is no time limit for remembering. So what if slavery ended in 1865?? That means all is forgiven and all is well?! Yeah right! I swear... white people are the epitome of evil and they are the masters of racism & manipulation... always wnat to sweep their crimes and injustices done to blacks and other minorities under the rug.
wow we - that is humans - have a long way to go - ignorance is so prevalent that is why race is still a factor in society. we have uneducated individuals on both sides of the fence that cant seem to learn in order to move on.. how sad... perhaps we will get it one day, perhaps not.
If all the black people that you know act like this...lets not even start on what the white people in your neck of the woods are like. I'm CERTAIN they are about as educated as you seem to be, which is to say, "Not at all." Your angle was so off and information so outdated, I wanted to actually find the humor in it all and didn't. Better luck next time, when you attempt to stick to something you know. I dislike all people, I'm not racist; people are just posers! Point in case...you.
The one question you fail to ask is why are white/Asian/Hispanic/Portuguese people who write shitty college humor columns so intrigue with blacks? Why do they find the need to propel the negative stereotypes of a people so low and so debase and insignificant? Right.
I actually like you, keep up the good work.
The main problem today with race is actually just this example of everyone's comments and columns. The last guy who posted on Nov 3 '09 is pretty much dead on. Everyone's focus is actually on Black vs White. Everyone whose in one race usually, i said usually, thinks that people of another race look the same. This isn't a racial thing, this is a sociological thing. Look at where that person is growing up and the prevalent race around them. A white person in a predominantly black neighborhood will be more easily able to distinguish different blacks, while a white person in a predominantly white community will not. They're not around them enough. And it works both ways.
Some bigger points to be brought up are actually, why are many white people racist against blacks when, as this article unintentionally points out, they themselves weren't personally around during the slave era. You have no damn reason to be racist. Many whites, myself included have families that immigrated after slavery was abolished. My family tree has only been in America for 80 years or so. One of the biggest times of immigration in American history was the early 1900's. (Though do please correct me if I am wrong)
Another major issue is the same race violence/disputes. Many white people are very critical of other whites who are tolerant, accepting, or even sympathetic with the problems among other races, especially blacks. Though it must also be pointed out that blacks are extremely critical of other blacks who aren't dominantly on the "Black" side of this stupid race debate. Hell you can read someone's post on here as an example, calling the girl a loser because they assume she grew up mostly with whites.
I'm a police officer and I'm currently looking for a department to work. I live in a city very very well known for it's crime rate. I would actually PREFER to work in a department with black officers, for multiple reasons. I actually look up to, yes look up to and admire, blacks who have come from whatever background and made something of themselves. I find them to be their own sociological heroes. Especially in positions where whites would usually be considered the extremely dominant areas i.e. medicine, business, law enforcement. I admire black police officers far more than others because of how their race looks at police. I can't tell you how many times a black police officer gets shit from other blacks, calling him an uncle tom or what not. But the reasoning behind the black communities view on the police, and many other things, are based solely on a good reason. The history of it all speaks for itself.
Believe me I'm not going on a debate over crooked cops but yes, they're there and not even the ones caught. Not just the ones who steal or commit crimes but just on their views and outlook on other people and races. They usually don't have any even debatable reason for it. I've seen my fair share of things that are screwed up. For example i've seen plenty of blacks who are on EBT cards or government aided money and spend it on their gas and groceries. Totally legitimate, they are in need of help from someone, and I'm more than happy to have my taxes help them live. I don't make much money by any means at all, but they make less than me, and thats not much, but they need it. The ones who are frustrating are the ones with $100 dollar bills in their pocket and using the government money for the stuff they don't feel like using their cash on. I don't know how this all works but sometimes they're cheating the system, so people get mad. I see it all the time. Bust a guy for selling crack cocaine, search his nice '08 charger, find more crack and his EBT cards in the front console while he's got $2000 in cash.
But you can't say white don't do it too. Fuck look at all the rich pricks swindling MORE money off the side. It's all a vicious cycle. If anyone gets anything out of this article let it be learned from the comments AFTER the article itself. We need to set examples of what we want and expect from others, because that behavior itself is learned by other generations. Black on black violence is many times based on money, obtained by selling drugs, which is sold because of the hardships endured in the neighborhoods where it's usually sold in. Many times kids get a false idea of being a gangster and wanna be the toughest. It's hard to break this cycle when kids as young as 10 are outright claiming to be involved with gangs, which are know for their violence and drug running. Blacks themselves have it hard, a lot of the time. But it can't always be an excuse.
Many black leaders, and even non-leaders, who just get a good job and go to school and make it with a good career are among some of the most important examples of what needs to be obtained in the face of adversity. And the important part is they don't play along into the game.
Whites also themselves need to look at what their values are. Erase the skin color and imagine yourself talking to someone your close to, wife/husband, whoever. Now imagine you both fighting/arguing over whose opinion is more important on non-race issues. Politics is a prime example. Someone of the same race with a different political party preference. Do you say to yourself, i fucking hate those republicans/democrats. Fucking right a lot of you do. But many would sure as fuck jump right in on these stupid arguments and try to act like your points and views of whites/blacks are the only right ones based solely on your skin color. How the hell is the idea and acceptance of the cultural upbringings of another race any more of your concern than your political preferences for example. No one is going around not associating with members of a different political party based solely on that, but we do it sometimes with race.
And on the articles notes.
First off, the N word needs to be abolished across the board. Blacks/whites/asians, whoever the hell, no one needs to say or or everyone should, make up your mind. But until that's decided on by everyone, if your white, be safe and just don't say it, not that hard.
Blacks are loud because that's how they grow up. Whites use such proper/boring english because... that's how they grew up and were exposed too. Blacks are also a lot more expressive when they talk, just like the whole idea that italians can't talk without moving their hands. Just how it is...... really not a big deal.
Black guys like white girls for many reasons. Some because yea many of them are easy. And if any dumb ass white girl starts saying, "Well I'm not, i take offense to that" two things, you don't fall into this category of the many types of white girls, congratulations, and two your an idiot for taking offense to that, look at the cover of a magazine and tell me white girls don't parade their asses off as sex symbols. Fuck, crazy ass britney spears has a song about liking threesomes......... come on. *Ahem* sorry.
Other black guys like white girls for the same reason other black guys like black girls, or white guys like white girls etc. They're attracted to them. Yea they workout, it's not always some shit about pissing off white guys. They get married live happily ever after.
Others yea, i guess they might do it to piss off white guys, but hell if they're not looking for a relationship and that's their whole reasoning and the dumb bitch doesn't fucking care, let em bang the slut.
And again, like one poster commented, the black community generally has less expectations of what is considered beautiful in society. Not that any women is less beautiful than others, it's just white men generally expect certain things than some black men don't. And there are plenty of white/black whoever women, that have interracial relationships, and they last. Shit i guess asian men can ask white guys that about their women.
Yea, some blacks are still mad about slavery, and rightfully so. What happened to them was horrible. It's also happened to white people way back in time, and even still happens now in the human sex slave trade, but that's not as widely know. Black people in other villages in africa would kidnap people from rival villages and sell them to the whites. The wounds will heal but until then, be respectful on the feelings they have about what happened. But i don't feel as if some black people should necessarily bring it up during things that aren't tied to it anyway just to exploit what happened. "No ma'am i didn't stop you because your black. I stopped you because you have no license plates on the car." yea it happens but be respectful, you get what you give. I had no hard feelings after that, it's stupid to react negatively to statements that get you upset. It just starts the cycle over.
And on a side note to some black readers, many white people might react negatively when that issue is brought up, not necessarily because he is a redneck racist (although they're out there, trust me) but because they don't want to fess up to what was done, and they actually DO feel horrible about it and have no real way of making it up to you. They let their pride get in the way.
Blacks like pigs feet? So do whites? Shit I just ate at this local jamaican place and had snoot. Pigs snout, good as hell and taste like pork rinds. Many times you see these places that have Soul Food and non-blacks think, "There's a black restaurant" Fucking right it is, and Panda Express is what, Polish? I've seen white people eat pickled eggs. What the hell's the deal with that shit? Hell black people love fried chicken. BECAUSE ITS FUCKING DELICIOUS!!! White people eat fish eggs and snails. Asians eat fucking tiger dick, no joke. But asking a dumb ass question like your an 8 year old asking someone about their likes and dislikes. Fuck they like it because they like it, same reason my dad listens to the fucking beach boys. Give me a break, beach boys? But what ever he likes bobbing his head to horrible music. I'm not even going to keep going, enough said, stupid question.
I don't know who DL Hughley is, so i don't know if blacks like him, but i'd bet not all. Shit some black people might like Dane Cook. He's a pretty lame ass comedian in my opinion and I'm white. Dumb question again.
No, it's not always racist. Hell sometimes white people THINK it's racist because they themselves are subjecting it to a racist point of view. Sometimes it is racist, because it legitimately is. And sometimes it is because they want to exploit the history of the racism that continues.
What rapper is okay to like? Whichever one you enjoy listening to i guess. Hell when i worked at a hospital moving patients, i was the only white guy on my shift. We had two black guys argue EVERY night about these two rappers. One like Eminem, the other like Lil' Wayne. Obviously opinions are different, but as another poster commented, mainstream rap is after exactly that, the mainstream. Which actually tends to be young white children in middle school and high school. Because they have their parents buy the albums and they all try to know the words so they can talk about it together and make it seem like they are all cool or something. Again it's preferential. I love rock/metal, but i don't listen to the radio because i don't like that kind of rock and roll that's usually on there. Just a matter of preference.
I have commented on this earlier but they all "look alike" because you didn't grow up around blacks. Same with any race looking at many other races. It's a sociological thing. Hang out with more blacks and you can easily see the difference as easy as you could other whites.
Yea sometimes they do spend $200 on shoes. Sometimes they buy $200 shoes for $50 because they're stolen, sometimes they buy fucking $20 dollar pairs. Why the hell do so many white girls buy a damn purse for fucking $1000 dollars because it says "COACH". Hell average amount of money for a pair of shoes i spend is from $75-$100. That's how much the pairs i want are. And if they spend $200 on shoes, more power to them. Don't know why people spend $200 dollars on those ugly ass UGG boots. You can get a knock off version for $70. Hell those hideous crocs? You kidding me? Rubber shouldn't be that expensive. And whoever posted about the checkered vans, perfect response, those things are so stupid looking.
Anyway, sorry about the long post and thanks for whoever read it. Blowing out some steam on these issues and i just think if anyone learns anything from it. Listen to what people have to say or ask and don't react negatively. When you do other people tend to react the same way and from there it just escalates. If someone accidently bumps into you at the store and you tell them "watch where the hell their going" they don't usually give you a nice response, when it was most likely just an accident. But if you give them a second to apologize or even if you apologize, most of the time it's returned. Same with anything else. You can't judge people based on stereotypes or the color of their skin, and if you give them the respect a human being deserves, it's usually returned even more so. If everyone did that than hell, we wouldn't have as much race issues as we do.
Damn now I'm sounding like a damn hippy. Well I'm gonna watch some south park now.
