"what's up, my niggas, we're having Applebee's tonight!"

is it wrong to laugh at this?

cutty (mcutt), Monday, 20 November 2006 21:12 (nineteen years ago)

Ooh, that Sacha Cohen posing as Borat posing as Ashley - what a crack-up!

Still giggling over "...what's up, my niggas, we're having Applebee's". ALTHO I have heard the mother who lives next-door to me call her grown children "nigger", but granted, she is not a middle-class person who works in an office. Also, not to detract from the original point.

It's funnier if you imagine nabisco saying that to his roommates every night, actually

I don't know if you guys know this, but if you listen to enough Hip Hop you begin to think using the N-word.

A brief (and completely true) example:

I am in Banana Republic, browsing their sale items when in my field of view two white guys rush over to the belt rack.

The thought verbatim that popped into my head was this:

"Niggas be buying belts!"

now I'm not about to go around voicing these kind of things, but that's the sort of context I meant...

For example, this conversation that made me laugh last winter:

Son: But Mooooon, I don't WANNA shovel snow!
Mom: You'll shovel that snow, nigger wants to live.

scott and lurker are on the right track, i think. i'm guessing he fucking blew an edgy routine, and ended up looking like a total racist/asshole. as to whether or not he's an actual racist: i don't really care. in this context, he is. when he's buying groceries or taking a shit, who knows? even if he is a drooling racist, the crackpot theories of washed-up comedians aren't that important to me. as long as he isn't out there preaching hate or perpetrating violence, let him stew in whatever garbage he's got in his head. if he isn't a racist, great, one down.

thing is, if he apologizes publicly, will he resort to the gibson defense (WASTED!), or will he just fess up to bad comedy? something about the latter option is 1000x more sad and pathetic than the former.

xp I seriously wonder if people who say that honestly believe that the middle-aged woman in the next cubicle at work seriously goes home to her kids and says "what's up, my niggas, we're having Applebee's tonight!"

ok, this is fucking hilarious

from tmz.com-TMZ Comment 841. "I am offended by this not because I am defending the blacks but because Michael Richards is a kike, so how can he say anything about any other races. Jews are at the very bottom of the race ladder. They are dirty, cheap, ugly, and uses other races to get what they want, just as michael richards uses blacks to get laughs. And the dumb jew bastard needs to know his history because 50 years ago he would not have been lynching niggers because he would have been already been thrown in the oven with the other kikes to burn to death. Somebody needs to remind him that he is just a jew bastard so he does not matter.

Grape soda is only less offensive because it is a little newer and more unique than chicken or watermelon. If he'd said, "Shut up and drink your grape soda," you'd all be laughing.

Bobby Ganush (Uri Frendimein), Monday, 20 November 2006 21:25 (nineteen years ago)

shut up

deej.. (deej..), Monday, 20 November 2006 21:27 (nineteen years ago)

you say that because you know I'm right

Bobby Ganush (Uri Frendimein), Monday, 20 November 2006 21:27 (nineteen years ago)

Did I miss the part of insensitivity training where we learn that only black people drink grape soda? Maybe so, but grape soda is no red pop.

Who tf cares what his motivation is? It's indifferent to me what flavor of racist he is, from common, garden variety clay-footed mere mortal to genocidal manaic. In this case, his behavior alone is contemptible and fatuous.

This was the point of the post I made way upthread before the hilarious clusterfuck happened.

I seriously wonder if people who say that honestly believe that the middle-aged woman in the next cubicle at work seriously goes home to her kids and says "what's up, my niggas, we're having Applebee's tonight!"

WOAH who works with Vivica A. Fox???????

The Android Cat (Dan Perry), Monday, 20 November 2006 21:28 (nineteen years ago)

If he'd said, "Shut up and drink your grape soda," you'd all be laughing.

I wouldn't be laughing, but I would be thinking, "Third-rate comedian goes for easy race joke, a la Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn. How lame." Which is still better than, "WTF kind of raving lunatic is this?"

Noilly Prat (kenan), Monday, 20 November 2006 21:30 (nineteen years ago)

Well, yeah, that's what I mean. So I guess Dan Bunnybrain is a 3rd rate comedian. Point is, it's offensive. The lines are a bit blurry and I don't think you can conclude this guy is definitely racist.

Bobby Ganush (Uri Frendimein), Monday, 20 November 2006 21:31 (nineteen years ago)

No, I mean 'shut up' because i want you to shut up

Of course we can't. I have no idea what's actually going on inside your head other than by inference based on what you type here. What's your point?

It astounds me that people think there is some sort of meta-comedic explanation that would somehow make this OK.

jvc, I don't think anyone's saying that it makes it OK, but it could mean that he's not the dyed-in-the-wool racist so many people have assumed him to be.
