I once had to explain to my wife how everyone in Europe thinks Ronaldinho is ugly. She was a little stunned, she was like "I have seen a hell of a lot worse-looking guys than him!" THEN SHE STARED AT ME FOR A LONG TIME AND I BECAME UNCOMFORTABLE.

maybe popcorn breaks down more completely in a vodka-based environment than in stomach acid alone.

Also, I'm disappointed that CTRL+F 'just a bit of fun' didn't reveal anything.

i'm pretty sure the big teeth thing has been established up thread. maybe to read,. perhaps?

I'm pretty sure big teeth on a black guy is a racist caricature, which you should know about because you are ROBERTO,CARICUATURE POLICE

[quote][i]the caricature is more than justified for this individual [i]

i mean like all chinese people have little eyes so its totally justified for me to tape my eyelids and pretend to be chinese

That's right, because this bottle opener is representing all black Brazilian people, or all black people, or all Brazilian people, and not just one dude kind of synonymous with having buck teeth.

but no-one says "all black people have elongated gums giving them an overbite that could open a beer bottle". I've always associated horsey gums/teeth with white British aristocracy - but I don't think a Camilla Parker Bowles bottle opener would sell.

OMG AILSA GIVE IT A REST!!!!

― horseshoe, Thursday, 22 March 2007 21:16 (seventeen years ago) link

I think you guys would have a stronger point if that bottle opener actually HAD large gums...?

― HI DERE, Thursday, 22 March 2007 21:16 (seventeen years ago) link

Yikes. I R MORAN.

And, since it doesn't, you aren't really arguing your case very well...?

it would if you opened the bottle in her ass

Oh, and don't make me post the picture of the 'black man's cock' baby's bottle Tom and I found in a mainstream toyshop in Spain.

― Matt DC, Thursday, 22 March 2007 21:17 (seventeen years ago) link

If I'm so stupid...

...why don't you take my arguments apart with convincing counter-arguments rather than resort to abuse?

Wait, why are a few of you talking about popcorn? Will someone pls embed popcorn.mid, it will make everyone feel better.

― nickalicious, Thursday, 22 March 2007 21:19 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, but LJ, that picture that the BRAZILIANS DREW THEMSELVES (omg pwned) DOES NOT resemble said hateful iconography.

― G00blar, Thursday, 22 March 2007 21:19 (seventeen years ago) link

you know, a lot of brazilians have german last names because their parents were escaped nazis :D

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Thursday, 22 March 2007 21:20 (seventeen years ago) link

No

― onimo, Thursday, 22 March 2007 21:20 (seventeen years ago) link

BLAME IT ON THE RAIN

― Mr. Que, Thursday, 22 March 2007 21:21 (seventeen years ago) link

gut reaction: i didnt think it was racist. i just thought it was ronaldinho.

considered reaction, after discussion: yea ok, not so simple as that

the divide here between brits and americans is striking. the obvious conclusion is that the 'cultural difference' at play here, shows...subconscious...unconsidered...racism prevalent in british people, that has been...worked out more in americans?

or...on the other hand...are the brits trying to defend their original position, rather than their considered opinion

― 600, Thursday, 22 March 2007 21:21 (seventeen years ago) link

...how do you define what 'looks like hateful iconography'? besides, a bottle-opener has to be shaped a certain way for it to function as a bottle-opener.

Moving on the floor now babe youre a bird of paradise
Cherry ice cream smile I suppose its very nice
With a step to your left and a flick to the right
You catch the mirror way out west
You know youre something special and you look like youre the best.

Her name is rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dustly land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh rio rio dancer across the rio grande

Ive seen you on the beach and Ive seen you on tv
Two of a billion stars, it means so much to me -
Like a birthday or a pretty view
But then Im sure that you know its just for you.

Her name is rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dustly land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh rio rio dancer across the rio grande

Hey now (wow), look at that.
Did he nearly run you down?
At the end of the drive, the lawmen arrive,
You make me feel alive, alive, alive
Ill take my chance, cause luck is on my side
I tell you something, I know what youre thinking
I tell you something, I know what youre thinking

Her name is rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dustly land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh rio rio dancer across the rio grande

Her name is rio and she dont need to understand
And I might find her it Im looking like I can
Oh rio rio hear them shout across the land
From mountains in the north down to the rio grande

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Thursday, 22 March 2007 21:21 (seventeen years ago) link

Ah man, I knew it was my fault . . .

I don't see racial issues first != I don't see racial issues ever. It's just that in this instance, that wasn't the first thing to enter my mind. Maybe it should have, I dunno.

(if it'll make it any better, I've got massive unsightly stereotypical English teeth . . . *ducks*)

ahahaha, okay this is my favorite argument on the thread! I'm sold.

Here's an idea -- don't make a Ronaldinho bottle-opener!

Johnny B, I think you are diving in front of a lot of bullets that weren't aimed at you.

LOUIS THERE IS A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE BETWEEN (WHITE) BRITISHERS PURCHASING BOTTLE-OPENING CARICATURE KNICK-KNACKS THAT CAN BE PLACED EASILY INTO A CONTEXT OF 'AFFECTIONATE' RACIST ICONOGRAPHY AND BRAZILIANS PAINTING CARICATURES OF NATIONAL ICONS ON WALLS
