rolling "Is This Racist?" thread

well 'not being racist' isn't really a thing you can (or should have to) applaud people for doing, not-racism is everywhere if you think about it

@shitmycatsays

I really wanted GhettoSommelier to be a parody

"I work as a sommelier in a michelin starred restaurant. I write down the best things customers (of all races) say

Ayo Mister, dis merlot STANK! Get it the fuck outta mah face, and bring me a 40 of dat '78 cab"

xp to some dude: http://gawker.com/5874912

although i bet the guy hears/types "dat" even when they say "that" sometimes, like that one young jeezy review on pitchfork

iirc in the pitchfork review, he just said "i got snow, man" and the "dat" was just added out of thin air

oh right, i forgot how the line went. also i looked it up and it was a pitchfork guy in the voice :(

there is no way that @ghettohikes is real

Tardblog is way old, I'm sure I read it back when I was in Uni which was nearly 10 years ago. IIRC some of the stories were kind of cute if you take them out of the horrible context. I vaguely remember it had links to Tucker Max at the time although I didn't know what that was.

Oh yeah it even says '(c) Tucker Max' at the bottom, of some posts, ha

why not? seems a lot more real than texts from bennett imo

there is no way that @ghettohikes is real

i was going to post this but feared a "posts very much in character" c&p

I'm guessing ghettohikes is "real."

Check out the Reddit conversation on this. Commenters are throwing out the racism card like it’s going outta style. “Urban” is “urban”………relax. It’s an entertaining read and an expected Reddit time waster.

“Urban” is “urban”………relax.

full title of the Das Racist album

"Mr. Cody, lemme borrow them monoculars, I think I see a pack of bald eagles."

*dies laughing*

yeah it's not that funny, which is part of why i think it's probably real

oh hey awesome not only is ghettohike on twitter but there is a tumblr

http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lximlxAEjv1r9jpslo1_500.jpg

he must be really embarrassed that he typed "the cookouts" instead of "da cookouts" in that one

it's written exactly how a white dude would think black kids would talk.

there's no fucking way 12 year olds are cracking Jumanji jokes.

no one says 'where the cookouts and shit' either. speaking w/ a dialect doesnt mean that your sentences are missing words

I hear people say "where the ____" without a verb all the time.

"You fuckin' crazy Ervin, it'd be hard as fuck to pogo stick out here."

guilty lol.

I've heard ppl say "where there are" and maybe slurring together 'there'&'are' like "there'r" but i dont think i've ever heard someone say "where the cookouts ...." and then just trail off. unless they had, like, a brain slip or were just generally dumb? idk i cant think of a time ive ever heard someone just drop off the verb entirely? it reads more like a baby's understanding of conveying ideas to me.

although i guess trying to find the logic in a racist's attempt to transcribe 'how black people talk' is the real problem

i've heard people say 'where the keys?' or i've said that, sure, but that's a different sentence than 'isn't this the park where the cookouts?' ... where the cookouts what? whereas in the first its implied that you're dropping "[where] are [the keys] located?"

idk it just reads like either a mistranscription or a made-up transcription the way it is imo

could be terrible punctuation. "Ain't this a park? Where the cookouts and shit?"

nb still horrible

i remember many years ago reading an essay about the transcription of working class voices in Charles Dickens and Robert Tressell that examined similar issues of a "neutral" representation that codes as mockery on the page. i'm guessing mr ghettohikes hasn't put any thought into this...for some reason

and this is the board where "where the tittays at" was a long-running joke

"tittays" is hilarious in a way that "dat" just ain't?

Just found out that for years I've been saying "Where's the white women at" when I should be saying "Where the white women at" :-(

you need to watch Blazing Saddles more

That's not possible

p sure it's 'where all the white women at' but will re-screen tbs

PS young frankenstein much better obv

... not that old debate again

"all" might well be in there but it doesn't change the construction

that's the kinda slack attitude that made great britain broken britain

... highest British attention to the wrong detail

^part 2 def has a "where the" construction

I think that pic upthread needs a comma

i would give it another question mark and just make it two sentences

btw, p sure part two of the beloved 'whered the cheese go' jingle is racist

There are probably more racist Ween songs.

By which I mean, Ween songs that are more racist than that one.

obviously the correct interpretation

Yeah - though now that I can see the sentence that D-40 thought it was, he seems less crazy.

He began his career by publishing The Definitive Book of Pick-Up Lines (2001), which he followed up by Belligerence and Debauchery: The Tucker Max Stories (2003). Max was the facilitator of the website "Tard Blog", from 2002- 2003.[21][22]
