Perhaps that expression is quite ordinary where you live, but in most places it’s considered to be quite vulgar and not at all on. From the East End, are you?
She would have got more respect if she had not rolled out the typical liberal stream. Being racist makes you uneducated? She should have just said she doesn’t agree with it, someone’s feelings could be hurt DONE
When I was a kid we had lots of stereotypes. We had Sony, Panasonic, Kawai, Akai, Pioneer, Denon, and whoever made the stuff for Radio Shack, just to name a few.
They’re not allowed to have a “Honkey College Fund” or “Society for the advancement of Crackers” but they’re the biggest racists on the planet.
Also they’re not allowed to paint their skin black, even though black people can dye their hair blond.
There’s probably more racism against white people in this day and age than against anyone else.
And by the way, I’m not arguing white people should be able to do the things above. I think nobody should be able to create charities dedicated only to a single race/ethnicity. This kind of stuff doesn’t make racism go away, it strengthens it.
As for the skin color/hair thing, I think it would be wonderful if we could stop making a big deal out of skin color and if we could not freak out when a model paints her skin black for pictures, especially when the painting is well done and looks natural. She obviously didn’t paint her skin black because she thought it was ugly, so clearly those who criticized this felt black people owned the copyright on black skin or something.
Good thing we’ve reached the point where a black person can dye their hair blond. Now if only this could be extended to skin and to white people… I guess nobody is ready for a world where skin is just another meaningless physical trait like eye color, especially those who strongly dislike racism.
So Randy would actually be going as a typically transparent lib who can’t handle differing opinions? How unique. Now let’s argue that I’m being a narrow-minded uneducated conservative! That’s always a fun one!
It’s called being racist, plain and simple. I’m a UC student, we saw what happened in UCSD with the Compton Cookout. UCSD has the LOWEST percentage of African-American students of the entire 10 Campus undergraduate system.
A stereotypes party really doesn’t work, PERIOD. Acknowledging stereotypes does work, and moving past them is what needs to be done.
Saying that it’s the internet doesn’t justify it. I will say that I identify as a Liberal, and that is the TYPICAL conservative response.
So can I go as a 1%er and steal/destroy everyone else’s drinks, bring nothing to the party, pollute the air and water, and make sure everything’s trashed by the time I head out?
not a racist = no sense of humour?
Submitter is a twat

You’re a tit.
Racism isn’t okay, but sexism is? Who’s the “twat” now?
… Saying twat is not sexist, people need to understand what racism and sexism are actually defined as.
Oh, just back down already. Yes, calling someone a “twat” is sexist as hell. Now you learned something from the internet, congratulations.
I hear men called twats all the time, and in Britain, c*nt is a common colloquialism aimed more often at men than women.
no, the girl is stupid.
doing stuff like this does help relations, especially if there are people of different races there.

Well, racists generally ARE uneducated. Or at the very least, willfully ignorant… which amounts to intentionally uneducated. Which is worse?
the blue person liked his own comment. that alone makes him a bit of a twat
didn’t you know that right now the fashionable thing is to say that if you’re offended by discrimination, there’s stuff wrong with you?

Ah see wut u did thar
Radio Shack is a Tandy Corporation
Depends on the way it’s done.
If everyone goes as a stereotype of their own race it could be quite fun.
If it’s a lot of white dudes taking the p out of every other race it would be crass.
I can see some black guys going as honky’s too, though. “watch me dance like a white guy!”. Racism isn’t a white-only thing you know.
Its not, and unfortunately it can sometimes be worse between people of the same race.
For the love of God, get off your high Sarah Jessica Parker.
hahahah well said, everyone needs to stop riding their SJP and get their feet back on the ground. Whats with people these days??
ITA
Dumb.
Would’ve loved to see what the dumb b¡tch’s response was going to be!
It was “Because apparently that’s a race now. Moron.”
Maybe I’m putting too much thought in to it, but I don’t really see how a “liberal college girl with no sense of humor” is a racial stereotype.
It’s a synonym for “white”.
Cause only whites are racist.
They’re not allowed to have a “Honkey College Fund” or “Society for the advancement of Crackers” but they’re the biggest racists on the planet.
Also they’re not allowed to paint their skin black, even though black people can dye their hair blond.

Spoken like a blue-eyed devil.
How is someone dyeing their hair the same as black face?
I have a laptop but no b00bs: Can I do this “work” anyway?
Some guys will pay extra for that.
So blue would actually be going as typically transparent college Republican?
So Randy would actually be going as a typically transparent lib who can’t handle differing opinions? How unique. Now let’s argue that I’m being a narrow-minded uneducated conservative! That’s always a fun one!
Then you’d better get ready to be shouted down with moronic duckspeak slogans every time you try to make a salient point.
You stop spamming right now or I’m telling the Chinese government you’re insulting them and spreading capitalist propaganda.

I thought people already understood that racism isn’t funny. Apparently not.
What are you talking about? Racism is hilarious…
Ditto lol
Why do they put cotton on top of medicine bottles?
So that black people don’t forget they used to pick cotton before dealing drugs.

yeah, this might have had a chance of being funny if ‘liberal college girl with no sense of humor’ was a RACIAL stereotype.
So can I go as a 1%er and steal/destroy everyone else’s drinks, bring nothing to the party, pollute the air and water, and make sure everything’s trashed by the time I head out?
Because that would be kind of awesome.
