The late great has donned, like the late great actors that he is no doubt named after, the artifice of someone who thinks all multi-ethnic women look like MIA, and also that it would be appropriate to comment on her post-baby body. The joke is in a sense on all of us, mistaking the gleam in his eye, but he has an artist's generous soul, and is will to encompass us all under his forgiving wings, to take the joke finally onto himself. The make-up is sublime, the seams near-invisible, etc etc.

yes i think that's the joke: "that person looks like mia"

what a delightfully-formed "joke"!

FYI: This is what MIA looks like:

Bearing in mind WHAT FUCKING THREAD YOU'RE ON, do you want to run that one by me again?

I think it was more a Urb magazine joke than a "looks like MIA joke"

why because they probably ran one zillion pictures of MIA

I remember Pedro from Real World SF used to call Rachel, "Racial." Always thought it was cute.

the urb thing reminds me of the unfortunate 'biracial hotties' thread jaymc started back in the day

"I think mixed-race people are so hot" is always an awkward one to deal with.

Just like you, except hot (ShariVari), Thursday, 26 April 2012 18:30 (1 year ago) Permalink

So Cleveland Indians announcer Tom Hamilton was just making some observations during today's game about the amusing rapport that Kansas City outfielder Jeff Francouer has developed with fans in right-field in Oakland. He concluded, "It can't be easy to make friends with those guys. Most of them are on parole!"

tbf Oakland's crime rate is insane

wow the "is this racist?" thread finally gets a crossover with the "OMG I LOVE RIBS/BACON/CORNDOGS/FRIED CHICKEN" thread

and not even with an obvious fried chicken connection

I think Oakland-fan bashing is an equal opportunity deal-not racist. If 30% of Raider fans aren't on parole, i'm sure at least that many would lie to you and tell you that they are to seem badass. Not sure about A's fans.

30% of Raiders fans are on parole, the other 70% jumped bail iirc

there are a bunch of MLB teams located in cities with murder rates around or higher than oakland's

yet a baseball announcer would never say that the right field bleachers of citizens bank are filled with people on parole

dayo, Thursday, 26 April 2012 19:12 (1 year ago) Permalink

Also I bring it up because years ago, when the Indians were playing the Yankees in the Bronx, Hamilton said on the air, "I would no sooner bring my family here than I would bring them to Harlem."

It's to watch all the foreclosures.

It's hard to watch a Philly game in any sport and not hear about the fact that the fans either 1) pelted Santa Claus with snowballs; 2)cheered the fact that Michael Irvin was possibly paralyzed and 3) are so unruly they have to have a makeshift courtroom in the stadium. Philadelphia is Oakland West, at least as far as bad fan-base reputations go.

they boo bad landings iirc

no wonder the landings are bad if philly is 'oakland west' tho

anyway, here is some racism: http://www.ferris.edu/jimcrow/menu.htm

Raiders fans are universally considered reprobates & it's an image they cultivate and enjoy. A's fans, not that I know of.

I'd be less concerned about the Jim Crow Museum if they had chosen a less playful typeface for the signage.

somebody had to put grampa's collection of kkk-themed pocketknives and blackface halloween masks to good use, i suppose

Actually the curator's story is pretty interesting and affecting http://www.ferris.edu/jimcrow/collect/
