How about some delicious Mohr im Hemd..

Probably about the third most popular dessert in Austria (after Sachertorte and Applestrudel) Mohr im Hemd translates to "Negro in a Shirt"

Some more adventurous restaurants serve this with vanilla ice cream and call it "Negro in the Antarctic"

PS. It does actually taste really good!

If you can't make it out in the picture, it is chocolate sponge cake with chocolate sauce and cream!

man I try so hard to be good but every once in a while I read "negro in the Antarctic" and lose my shit

Fedele told The Times:

"If I was racist, I would have looked at it through racist eyes," she said. "I am not racist, which is why it probably didn't register."

Club member Kristina Sandoval agreed.

"None of us are racists," she said.

The use of watermelon, ribs and fried chicken was innocent, she said.

"Everyone eats those foods, it's not a racial thing."

"Everyone eats those foods, it's not a racial thing."

"Everyone eats those foods, it's not a racial thing."

"Everyone eats those foods, it's not a racial thing."

"Everyone eats those foods, it's not a racial thing."

Holy. Shit.

But what is the significance of the Kool-Aid Man?

Prob some kind of "drink the kool-aid" thing.

no, kool-aid is used as stereotypical "black" drink sometimes. i had a roommate once whose boyfriend claimed to be really good at making kool-aid because he learned from a black person. he was terrible.

yikes. how was the kool-aid though?

no better than the kool-aid i learned to make by reading the instructions

It's not so much the imagery that I find shocking, but the fact that a goddamned GOP group put it out and then the woman responsible put on her po-face to claim that she had no IDEA it was racist. Ladies and gentlemen, THAT is the definition of gall.

cf. Dave Chappelle's bit about the black kid in the Sunny Delight commercial who gets really excited when someone mentions "purple stuff."

Sorry, "Chaffey Community Republican Women", not GOP.

OHHH YEAH

Unfuckingbelievable

holy shit

Combined with the price for that thing, what better way to show you're stupid?

I...have to admit, the thing is hideous but it wouldn't have occurred to me that it was racist. Maybe too many bible stories about burning bushes and pillars of fire?

Laurel, it's a burning cross for your lawn. That it's not actually on fire isn't really distance enough from, you know, crosses being burnt on black people's lawns to warn them that they're going to be killed if they don't leave town.

"like a prayer" vid to thread?

i don't think today's racists would be practical enough to even know how to assemble and light a burning cross. this is just the product for them.

Uh yeah I get that. But only because ILX pointed it out; I would not bet money on my having thought that otherwise. Or at least not right away.

hah I knew a kid in high school whose parents made one of these, only it was red lights and it was on their tv antenna. He came out to them the year after telling us about it.

Well, ILX/I got it from Professor Ann Bartow, who probably heard it from elsewhere - I mean, it took me a second, after which second I was like "are you guys serious? a burning cross on a lawn? for Christmas? you're joking, right?"

Let Your “Light” Shine For Christ This Christmas Season!

inappropriate roffles

LOL

what part of this is "burning"?

the AFA online store has been much blogged about in the last week and a half
the video they sell about the gays coming to your town to take it over was a popular topic as well

that site is hilarious

(fwiw I think this falls much more easily into the "tacky" bucket than the "racist" one)
(also everyone should be psyched when the gays take over, that's when your property values go up)

guys look at these racist frenchmen omg:
