I saw that one coming, but it was still great

never saw that version of "The Princess Bride"

is a dickhole a hole in a dick or a hole for a dick

or a hole made by a dick
like a pinhole, but with dick

I came here to post that I overheard a guy in the office saying "oh yes that coloured boy" then denying any intended racism when someone pulled him up for it, then found myself pondering dickholes.

I came here to post that I overheard a guy in the office saying "oh yes that coloured boy" then denying any intended racism when someone pulled him up for it

I used to work with a white sth african who would jovially yell 'DON'T HATE ME COZ I'M BLACK' in the office all the time, insisting that it proved he wasn't racist

I don't talk to him any more

In a situation in which East Haven police are accused of violating the rights of Latino residents, many of them Ecuadorean — and in a town that in the past has been accused of discriminating against blacks — Maturo appointed just one minority member to a new eight-member committee formed to look for ways to improve the Police Department.

That man, Jose Velasquez, is Puerto Rican.

In an extensive discussion that followed a reporter’s observation that Maturo didn’t appoint any of the Ecuadoreans who appear to make up the bulk of East Haven’s fast-growing Latino community and own most of the Latino businesses along Main Street, Maturo questioned why anyone would need to choose “a certain type of Latino.”

“If there’s a certain type of Latino that I should have picked, well then let somebody write it down on paper,” Maturo said. “‘I want a 5-foot-2, I want a certain sex.’ You tell me what you guys want. You want me to order it?”

When it was noted that Puerto Ricans are born as American citizens and travel freely to and from the mainland, while Ecuadoreans come from another country on another continent, are not automatically U.S. citizens and face immigration issues when they come to the U.S., Maturo responded, in part:

“I mean, if I had to pick an Italian, do I pick a northern Italian? A southern Italian? We’re Italians. I picked a Latino. Did it have to come from a certain section of the country? You know what? I think that’s a foolish statement to make. And I feel bad that you made it.

“I wouldn’t make a statement like that,” Maturo said. “I brought in a Latino. Is he not dark enough for you? Light enough for you? I don’t know. ... I wouldn’t have said that.”

"taco mayor"

Did it have to come from a certain section of the country?

Wow. Just...fucking wow.

this guy = kind of lol but mostly sad, but also mostly lol

I like that he "ordered" a Latino

"I'd like one token latino officeholder to go please"

ALL IS FORGIVEN, FROGBS

He said there needs to be “a healing process on both sides.”

in all fairness that reporter was being a total dick

this is just mind-boggling. i want an abject apology from everyone who demonstrated even an ounce of sympathy for this asshole.

eagerly awaiting this guy's first press conference with Newtie

joe the mayor, voice of real america

I want to read Baratunde Thurston's book "How to Be Black" because he was just really fucking funny on Fresh Air, but I don't ever want to buy a book because I heard the author on Fresh Air.

You should buy it because of his connections to The Onion and his general interestingness

I've seen pieces linked to Jack and Jill before, but I didn't realize what 'Jack and Jill' was, until he explained.

Unfortunately Google searches for "jack and jill racist" are hiding the truth from me, due to the Adam Sandler movie. Co-incidence?

Brentwood Director of Security Joseph Kozarian, who was on duty at the game, refused to intervene, instead sitting back and at one point smiling and laughing with the Brentwood fans in the stands.

This country absolutely horrifies me sometimes.
