bron weird

^^^ new gaga single

ftr, i'm personally very concerned about being put on any race xls lists. my peeps have had bad experience with that.

Mordy, I will put you down as "Navajo"

again, it's not from the wdyll threads that i become aware of this stuff fwiw. race affects people's "pure ideas"

Yeah, if you pay a little attention, you can pick up a lot without a pic and a biography.

For example, by reading the description to ghettohikes (hint: urban kids (of all races)) and reading a couple pages, I can tell that Mr. Cody is a white dude who is obviously making up a lot of blatantly racist jokes with barely a wink at pretending to be a humble documentarian.

O_o at anyone believing this is in any way innocent kids say the darndest things stuff. (sorry, I assume this was beaten to death upthread based on apologies and whatnot.) </ghettohikes>

i basically never visit the WDYLL threads, and that's perhaps a mistake on my part. i like the "pure ideas" aspect of internet communication, and maybe i do sometimes allow that enthusiasm to override my respect for difference (i.e., universal white man syndrome). if some raceless internet apparition says something that seems to imply a kind of racism they're perhaps not aware of, i'm tempted to call it out. problem is, there is no such thing as a "raceless inernet apparation", and i wind up sticking my foot in my mouth, as happened here.

here's a really good rule of thumb: never accuse someone of "reverse racism", regardless of their race

yeah, no, it wasn't "reverse racism", it was hyperawareness of difference = plain old ordinary racism

irony being that my comment was a product of tone-deaf ignorance of difference

all joking aside, you guys are all white though right?
right?

Becoming Illegal (Actual letter from an Iowa resident and sent to his senator)
The Honorable Tom Harkin
731 Hart Senate Office Building
Phone (202) 224 3254
Washington DC , 20510

Dear Senator Harkin:
As a native Iowan and excellent customer of the Internal Revenue Service, I am writing to ask for your assistance. I have contacted the Department of Homeland Security in an effort to determine the process for becoming an illegal alien and they referred me to you.

My primary reason for wishing to change my status from U.S. Citizen to illegal alien stems from the bill which was recently passed by the Senate and for which you voted. If my understanding of this bill's provisions is accurate, as an illegal alien who has been in the United States for five years, all I need to do to become a citizen is to pay a $2,000 fine and income taxes for three of the last five years. I know a good deal when I see one and I am anxious to get the process started before everyone figures it out.
Simply put, those of us who have been here legally have had to pay taxes every year so I'm excited about the prospect of avoiding two years of taxes in return for paying a $2,000 fine. Is there any way that I can apply to be illegal retroactively? This would yield an excellent result for me and my family because we paid heavy taxes in 2004 and 2005.

Additionally, as an illegal alien I could begin using the local emergency room as my primary health care provider. Once I have stopped paying premiums for medical insurance, my accountant figures I could save almost $10,000 a year.

Another benefit in gaining illegal status would be that my daughter would receive preferential treatment relative to her law school applications , as well as 'in-state' tuition rates for many colleges throughout the United States for my son.

Lastly, I understand that illegal status would relieve me of the burden of renewing my driver's license and making those burdensome car insurance premiums. This is very important to me given that I still have college age children driving my car.
If you would provide me with an outline of the process to become illegal (retroactively if possible) and copies of the necessary forms, I would be most appreciative. Thank you for your assistance.
Your Loyal Constituent, (hoping to reach 'illegal alien' status rather than just a bonafide citizen of the USA ).

okay I am dying already

If my understanding of this bill's provisions is accurate

I am not fully familiar with this bill but I suspect that "If" is doing an Olympic-level of heavy lifting here

I keep saying I'm going to drop this, but fyi the dude who runs lammebook & menshumor is the same dude who registered ghettohikes: http://www.dailydot.com/news/hater-exposing-man-behind-menshumor/
