yes.

excellent super powers, actually!

I understand how the map is labeled in the title, but the actual lables *in the map* are not ethnic. Finnish and Dutch are not ethnic identities. I understand your overall point, but I don't think you get mine.

This has been the main thing throughout the series. I watched, and regret watching, the whole thing. The reason that AJ quit is because it's just so clear that she's not there yet vis a vis real recovery. I know that all people don't come to sobriety via 12 Step programs, and that her last recovery stint was in a…

So friggin cute! She looks like she's yelling, "Oh F' Chrissake, put down the damn camera and give me a treat!"

But if you can be Jewish and also be of Ethiopian, English, Dutch, Spanish, German, etc origins, how are you erased? This isn't a map of ethnic identity, it's a map of country of origin. Two totally different things, no? African American is an unfortunate catch all that helps those of us who have no knowledge of…

this looks so much like my cat when he was kitten... and he used to look at me like this right before he tried to bite me into playing with him!

I don't think they're ruining the company, first off— it's a secret deal. We don't know the terms. They probably made them pay a $1. Secondly, MCA's wishes are good ones. I get where they're coming from and I respect it. Let's not be upset about a company being ruined until they file for bankruptcy and blame the…

I like snarky Obama.

The Scandal sketch made me feel some kind of way because Dunham's character's closing line was something along the lines of, "you're the most diverse and beautiful group of people..." which I took as a not so subtle dig at Shonda Rhimes for being creative and writing the workplaces she wants to and does see. It made…

Am I the only person who recognizes Black Greek Letter organization stepping? Specifically Omega Psi Phi? Just me?

Paula Deen said that she makes Judy mad because she never listens to her advice. My thing is... THEY MADE A TV SHOW ABOUT HOW HELLA BADASS JUDY IS. LISTEN TO HER. Also, if you're not going to listen to your crisis management team, don't pay them to be your team. And don't tell people they are your team. SHEESH.

Please read the other of my posts. I'm talking about people in positions of power; I do understand that there were biz execs involved. That said, Seinfeld qualifies as having significant power in modern film and television, just as Johnny Carson and Ed Sullivan did long ago.

Yeah, I understand what you mean. Just not sure you understand what I mean. Because I like to laugh, a lot, but I do get tired of the lack of people who look like me, who I know are funny, in pretty much everything.

I'm glad I'm impressive. You're missing my point as I seem to have missed yours. The subtext of the item featured in Dirt Bag about which we're having this exchange is that even though the point of comedy is to make people laugh, it's some how more difficult for Black, Latino, and Asian comedians to make it into…

Well, I'm glad to know that. It's really great the rest of the world totally works that way, too.

I was wondering where it came from. Thanks for the explanation. I've seen the Big Lebowski quite a bit... but sometimes in cyberspace you don't hear things with the same voice.

And really? "One-eyed, albino, peg-legged or anything else"? Really?

And no one was ever barred from being on a TV show, or playing a venue because they were the wrong race. It has always, always, been about the merit earned by your talent. Forever.

"DUDE" I am Black. And a woman. And when Bill Cosby and Richard Pryor were starting out, we were called COLORED. I know I don't have to explain this to you, DUDE.
