booming p btw

:)

What so I should read "Ulysses" in a comedy oirish accent then?

No. Only Shakespeare should be read in a comedy oirish accent.

Singling one kid out to be the group spokesperson for whatever group is just bullshit imo.

BIG HOOS w/the tumblr white perspective

bam

Suddenly I am very embarrased to own that tshirt >:|

blame the glasses imo

Why do you have a shirt asking for Black perspective on that proposal?

hahah I know I was kind of , whoa Tracye, on that at first

that's like the 00s version of wayne and garth

the reboot if you will

Guy on the left is p cute; I'm going to assume he was never asking a dumb superimposed question.

on of my coworkers has started using the term 'canadians' when referring to black ppl. i know it's racist bc he does it when he wants to say something racist about black ppl, but i don't know where it comes from. is there some piece of popular media he got it from or is this his own invention?

Derived from Geoffrey Canada, maybe?

If that's the case, it makes the usage feel somehow doubly heinous.

Hasn't the "Canadians" thing been brought up before?

It's an old restaurant worker meme. I'm sure if you wanted to Google "black people" Canadians, something would show up. (besides pictures of Rick Fox.)

yeah I've read it on here in a t*pping thread or 'share your terrible table waiting experiences' thread

the same colleague passed around the office yesterday a picture that one of our contractors sent him of Reagan petting the monkey from Bedtime for Bonzo with some racist Obama joke attached to it.

i kno, i kno whiney. this doesn't fit the exact parameters of the thread. don't tase me, bro.

Seems like there's enough of a smoking gun there to get the guy disciplined?

It's an old restaurant worker meme.

Yes, still in use (in the US south at least) c. 2003 when I last waited tables.

ask him if he has a funny euphemism for jewish people and then set his desk on fire

Does he complain about how the mexicans are controlling the media?

uh no question about this one

like, how can that even be real

max otm. dunno who that is, but not the real thing.

we had a whole thread on a couch with that particular color brown!

i think we determined it came from chinese manufacturers still using a pretty ancient UK industrial color lexicon via HK. iirc.

^^ laughing at engrish R or NR?

a lovely deer printed on the front of the youth fashion

i don't class that as engrish at all

speaking of, what do y'all think of the "Chinese Woman" Seinfeld episode? I'm not really sure if it's offensive or not though it basically revolves around the "yellow fever" concept without saying it directly

more akin to using the term 'oriental' and wondering why people are getting upset.

xp

elmo otm

best part of that "about us" text is this admission nonchalantly slipped into the middle of it: "Nowadays, Abercrombie and Fitch piracy in China has spread to unimaginable proportions."

well A&F has a history of race problems for sure, especially in terms of hiring practices iirc

goole - i was referring to myself posting the "about us" text for laughs, not the name of the pants
