weird AM PM experience this morning

[HaloMagic]

For the record, I didn't get the joke, either

[Hollyw00d]

Probably cuz it wasn't a joke.

wopphil is "I'm not racist, but" guy

[nate]

This thread escalated quickly

[Hollyw00d]

I hate white people

India is in the Middle East now?

 

If so, does this mean that Indians are terrorists, too?

[Taylor]

A comment can't be racist MT, only a person. And a person can't be racist unless he/she has sincerely held racist beliefs. Words by themselves don't have meaning.

I went back and re-read my original post. Again, it seems to me that any reasonable person would not have struggled to see the comment was a joke. Most people know Indians are not considered Middle Easterners, and therefore would have understood I wasn't being serious.

And you are obviously a smart person, so I struggle to believe you didn't get the joke. Instead, I think you looked for a reason to pick a fight, which I think you often do on here.

 

You seem to be going way out of your way to explain that you're not racist against Middle Easterners. 

 

I don't know how many racists will actually say they are racist.

Wopphil is one step away from the living the joke, "I'm not racist, I have a colored t.v."

I love the Middle east. Thinking of taking my family on vacation there in a few months. I hear Syria is nice these days. Iraq too. And the Saudis and Iranians have always embraced Americans. It will be nice going somewhere that I know will treat my wife equally and where my religious views will be respected. Edited November 8, 2014 by wopphil

Or from Orange County.

There's a difference?

Phil is a Wop - member of  a maligned race.  Can't be racist.

i'm an anti-dentite, in case anyone is wondering.

[DowningRules]

Lame.  I made a point of saying that the comment was racist, which it was.  That is not debatable.  

 

Yawn.  Everything is debatable especially when on a faceless board.

Can't tell me that's not debatable.

At this point I can't tell if you guys really are smug douches or are awesome at taking the piss out.

Maybe there's too many cooks.

I'd have to see your face to decide if it is or not

[happybat4]

Wow hard to believe I started a 4 page thread. This has been more entertaining than I thought it would be.

And nothing on why he was charged for cup. You should have gave him the empty cup instead of throwing it away.

Nitwit.
