I have never heard "Jew you down" or "mighty white of you" outside of this board.
'Sleeper'

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

The only place I ever heard "Pope's Nose" was on the Super Catholic side of the family, I doubt they considered it offensive.

Tonight I went to Bar Pitti to celebrate, which is next to notorious celebrity site Da Silvano. Ridiculous amounts of loafing paparazzi for what turned out to be, from what we could tell, Tim Curry, Billy Joel and Thalia.
And I didn't make out with any of them.
