idk man you're the one who is comparing your more than capable of thinking child to a mentally disabled person. the two are clearly not the same thing and the child is more than capable of controlling themselves, but just remember YOU are the one comparing your kid to a mentally disabled person.

if your kid is kicking someone's seat, they shouldn't be "more understanding" regardless of your situation. you should get your undisciplined child to stop kicking a fucking seat because you are a parent and it's not all about you and your special snowflake.

Update: it appears not. BRING ON THE ASSES

Everyone but the people who deliberately ignore it to spark an argument (you) know that.

The standard Hollywood explanation is that white people don't "relate to" black characters. Or some headache-inducing it's-not-about-you excuse like that.

I was thinking about this last night. We do see a lot of historical depictions of influential black figures or historically based fiction but we don't see a lot of fictional characters. I know that fiction with black lead characters exist (and black women to boot) but they aren't even getting the recognition they…

Well I'll know by the end of the day if HR monitor's my computer while at work.

I am flabergasted it took that long for someone to call that out. Like I missed that entire thread but I'm sort of glad I did now.

While I do agree that she is indeed at least stupid and possibly a slut

No dude that's totally fine. If your kid makes a mess and you clean up after him, there's no harm in that at all, it's actually really, really appreciated.

One of the worst experiences I had as a waitress was when parents would bring their small child (or fucking grown ass child who couldn't seem to behave themselves) to a restaurant and let that kid wreak havoc on the area. Food was thrown about as the parents smiled and laughed at how cute it was that their child would…

who are you referring to?

that's like exactly the point i'm trying to make. you don't understand, so why not take someone's word for it instead of being argumentative?

yeah i'm aware, i don't live under rock

idk if you have the ability to tell people how they are affected by slurs. calling a white kid a n****r wouldn't affect him at all, but it dehumanizes black people further by saying they are lower than white people by default. same with calling a straight guy a faggot to insult his masculinity — it doesn't matter if…

exactly, because we aren't ever gonna understand what that feels like. the only time i had to pull the breaks on that argument was when a guy said that it hurts worse than childbirth, and it's like the stupidest fucking argument ever because how can you compare two things that only one of you is ever gonna feel?

Thisss

When people say f*gg*t, its usually a word thats synonymous with 'loser'.

You seem to be missing the point here. I never disagreed that Lupita is not given the recognition she deserves. We both pretty much agreed on that — I'm saying that you don't have to tear down another woman when we should be advocating all women in this male dominated industry. Saying "why does jlaw have this while…
