I’ve had white coworkers claim they should get maternity/paternity leave when they get a new dog.

I know — and the snake lady? Freaked me the eff out at the time!! :D

My mom threatened to shave her head if my dad shaved his beard!

It’s not a slur, but it does indicate a shitty shitty person is speaking.

My ‘Blackest Moment’ of 2017 occurred right on New Year’s Eve, when I watched my youngest great-aunt parade around her house in a satin bonnet, velvet house coat and a cigarette perched from her lips... While her white co-workers (her subordinates, actually) stare at her in equal-parts amazement and bewilderment. They…

You ever hear people something like “these males out here doing...”?

As a kid, it never occurred to me that “Fisher Stevens” wasn’t an Indian name. In retrospect, I was not as smart as I thought.

I don’t even think Eddie had written dialogue..they would just call action and get....”You got me out here paddling! I’m gonna paddle your ass when I see you!”

Also, it’s too bad (for him) Tywin Numspa couldn’t get it together in any realm...

Eddie Murphy scratching that spinning scroll like a record is still one of my favorite things ever.

I know, right? Apparently she’s English/Irish and Iraqi/Chilean. Looking at her now as an adult, it’s quite obvious, but as a little kid (and in my memory of the movie), nope.

I was a little kid when this came out, but I think I saw it in the theatre (gotta love the 80s!)...it was funny as hell even bakk then.
