i am trolling my family

[Van Cruncheon]

it's my daughter's third birthday come the 8th of july. for her birthday, i bought her the fisher-price "loving family" dolls, but with one twist: i bought the black father doll to go with the white mom and daughter. (black dad also came with a black baby.) my daughter doesn't even seem to notice the difference in skin color (i let her open them early; or more accurately, i couldn't be buggered to wrap them and she found them and wanted to play with them); she calls black dad "happy daddy" and white mom "happy mommy". ebony and ivory: fuck yeah! it's so adorable!

i can't wait to see my old man flip out. i bet even my mom sighs as she realizes i am indoctrinating my daughter into a life of potential miscegenation. maybe i will get a lecture about how the dilution of american culture is turning us all into mocha-colored aztlans with no identity! FUTAMI WHAT DO YOU THINK

That's awesome. Really, truly, awesome.

i'd buy her the illustrated "the closing of the american mind" but i figured "everybody poops" was vastly more practical and probably better argued to boot

[FlameOfCallandor]

Your loss when she starts leaving little piles of poo eveywhere instead of short essays about western canon.

I wish my father had some easily exploitable quirk. Hes not prejudiced against any races...he is a paranoid mothafuga though

 This is all good and well, but why are you dwelling so much on the black and white thing, i mean who cares what skin colors the dolls are.
People love to play the " race card ", however playing them with dolls is kinda um i dont know, 

[Van Cruncheon]

the best bit is that, like foc here, he insists he isn't racist and that he has a black "friend". then he refers to basketball as "five nigg*r jump" and we're all left aghast.

[FlameOfCallandor]

 

I just dont see race as something to judge someone by like yall do.

But I guess using your daughters birthday gifts as a way to make a point on an internet forum is quite 

[BlueTsunami]

Theres a dude at work that sounds like your dad (as far his view on Blacks). Hes my shift supervisor (and hes lucky I'm not the type to get all uncomfortable with these kind of remarks)

He vehemently states hes accepting of all races but when he starts ranting he starts dropping condescending remarks. Calling various black people "G"s, "Homies" (goodie but oldie) and my favorite "Palm tree climbas" (thats more a jab at Caribbean blacks). Its amazing how hes able to go back and forth between accepting tolerant citizen and racist as hell hick. Hes funny though, so its all good.

My old college roommate is like that, BT.  He's all "oh I'm not racist" but get a couple beers in him and just stand back and listen to him rant about thug distinguished black fellows and lazy messicans destroying Uhmurrika.

 White, black, green or blue, who cares, De wereld is het zelfde <----------- Pay attention now.

U2K Da Legendary!

[DJ_Tet]

I've got a "black friend."


Should I drop him because his mere association with me makes me look like a closet racist?

[Human Snorenado]

U2K Da Legendary!

Stop encouraging the distinguished mentally-challenged fellow.

One time a guy said "South Americans are proof that the Spanish discoverers fucked monkeys."

He said it as a joke, not as a "lol im so transgressive" joke but "funny cuz its true" joke.  I wish I had said something, but I was too aghast.
