LOVES VORTEX!
Natter 64: Yes, we still need you
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.
Many sympathies, msbelle.
Vortex, you're my hero.
"Stop right there. How about this - either you don't finish that sentence, or if I think that you sound racist, I get to slap you".
Awesome.
Because people think that if they say racist shit to a black person with manners and they don't get slapped, it's okay. I make it clear that I have manners, but won't tolerate racist bullshit.
Many white people are sure you'll understand if you're white too. Which lead to my one sister frequently pretending she was bi-racial just to freak people the fuck out. It was AWESOME.
I would not want to be slapped by Vortex because she looks like she has very strong arms. (Now, if it were Sophia threatening to slap me....)
ita, did you see that Mark Dacascos is going to be on Dancing with the Stars?
Once someone says, "I don't mean to sound racist, but..." it's already too late.
I wish we could fund a position for Vortex that would pay her to go about the country reducing the amount of bullshit.
And ever since I started riding the bus, other white people come up to me and start to tell me things that start with "Not to be racists, but..."
WTF? They see you on the bus and think, "Yay! A fellow white person who must surely share my viewpoint and if I can't spew every thought that crosses my mind I will surely explode so I'm going to go talk to her, oh HI WHITEY!"???
Sophia should definitely address all these people as WHITEY.
And then tell them to eat a muffin.
