Possibly another overreaction?
This is weaksause pearl clutching at best..
I dunnoooooo guys, this is not really worth it. I’m not even a comedian and I would have had a difficult time not saying something similar after a professional interviewer said the phrase “inside an 11 year old girl.” If anything he should be dinged for saying something so dumb. I didn’t see it as a joke so much as…
Why? She’s not a stay at home anything, she actually is a successful business person.
As IF she was such a brilliant child that she knew to deny the peach crayon! Bitch used the “flesh” colored crayon just like the rest of us little white girls did in the 70s and 80s. Lying liar!
Shit, you sued Howard for reverse racism, which is basically the whitest thing a person can do.
I’m starring your comment, because it’s terrific, but I think it’s important to note that there is a black experience that has nothing directly to do with slavery in the Americas. My best friend from medical school is Nigerian. He does not think to himself, “would my ancestors have been slaves two centuries ago in the…
Black as a race has really nothing to do with identity. It does link them, because people in those communities are called black and treated in similar ways.
HA!
Interesting. Do you think that people with darker-than-caucasian skin tone from modern day Mali, Cuba, Eritrea, Columbia and Nigeria all feel that this “would have been a slave” shared property links them in some way that is deeper than anything else in their lives? Do you think that people of African descent but 3rd…
Rachel, sweetheart: you’re self-absorbed, you’re in love with the sound of your own voice, you steal things from black people and claim them as your own, and you tell black people what to think. I’d say QUITE A FEW things about being white describe who you are PERFECTLY. Shit, you sued Howard for reverse racism, which…
I’m confused. Is this the one that hated the Estee Lauder make up...Jamie? If so, I think she’s got it all wrong. This looks great on her.
I had a Thai employee who was a fairly new addition to the U.S. She went to a Nordstrom’s here and got told by the makeup counter lady that she had “chinky eyes.”
The worst part is, my employee came in the next day and asked me what “chinky” meant. She spoke English really well but was not up to date on idioms or…
Great job on that one!
Man, I would /love/ to see a Mall Makeovers with nothing but non-white people who also talk about the overall experience and how they were served. The last time I got a makeover (inspired by this series, actually!) the woman doing my face contorted herself nearly into a knot trying to avoid racist language (I’m of…
Getting a tattoo when you’re not like, part of the subculture of tattoos, can be a weird, kind of frustrating experience (I say this as someone who has a number of non-visible tattoos, but who is a very white-collar, corporate button-up type). There’s definitely a push and pull between the client and artist (it’s…
Ok, but check THIS. I was once refused a tattoo on my ribcage because the tattoo artist said it was gonna hurt a lot and I looked like I probably couldn’t handle it. Yeah.
I bet Dan also has a lot of fervently-held opinions about babies on flights.
Babies and toddlers are disgusting creatures who are probably the main source of such human filth. They are constantly leaking one kind of bodily excrement or another and will happily eat from an unwashed pet dish because they and the animal are best friends. They will play with random animal poop found in play-area…
