I live about 3 blocks from The Wieners Circle and I look out for shennanigans when I walk by it at night but it's usually peaceful. Never been there though and don't plan on going. I no longer find intentionally harsh service very funny. ILXor Jordan went there and paid $6 for a hot dog, which they refused to give him him until he tipped $2. But it wasn't a joke where they were going to give him the food that he paid for after fucking with him for a minute.

just now discovering 'the wieners circle' is not a euphemism for soggy biscuit

I've been to the Wiener's Circle once when it was as depicted at the end of the TAL video (actually, with ILXor Jordan), and witnessed first hand the privileged white boys yelling racist shit at the women working behind the counter. It's gross and I won't go there again, even during the day when it's just another place to get a hot dog.

Yeh I didn't mean to suggest its reputation and the TAL thing were exaggerations.

i was vegan the whole time i lived in chicago :(

this show rules though, even if it might be racist

I don't know if the show is racist, but the late-night dynamic at the Wiener's Circle is unquestionably racist.

carl agatha, Sunday, 8 April 2012 18:21 (twelve years ago) link

Idk, they don't fuck with me at The Weiners' Circle, they just give me what I order.

Oh well, then, it must not be racist.

carl agatha, Sunday, 8 April 2012 18:22 (twelve years ago) link

they just give me what I order, too, but I order racism

ok is 'Shyster' anti semitic? I called up someone for using it but the etymology suggest differently? Has it become anti semitic?

owenf, Monday, 9 April 2012 22:10 (twelve years ago) link

I don't think you should hide. If you hate blacks, let it out. It would be best for us all for conservatives to start being honest.

random calling out of Soledad O'Brien there - I must have missed the part where she stole his bike

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 9 April 2012 22:18 (twelve years ago) link

looks like comment boxers are calling out that bike article

the late great, Monday, 9 April 2012 22:21 (twelve years ago) link

soledad o'brien is too busy acting like she just stepped off the amistad to steal anyone's bike IMO

My favorite movie growing up was “In the Heat of the Night.”

swaghand (dayo), Monday, 9 April 2012 22:36 (twelve years ago) link

In that moment, I had a change of consciousness. Why was I assuming that the kid who stole my bike was acting out of some terrible pain, as if he had been directly under the lash of Bull Connor? What if he has a car, a nice apartment, a hot girlfriend and good health?

What if he is just a selfish asshole?

What if the thief is is NOT BLACK?!? This fucking scumbag never even considers the possibility. What if he is not a he? Could be a Lebanese woman for all he really knows. Oh but no, it's gotta be a "black kid", probably one of those that "had been described". and any doubt about this is just a remnant of that pesky old "white guilt".

on some levels, i kind of admire this article because with the internet being what it is i'm getting sort of accustomed to almost everything i read being so profoundly stupid and poorly written, but even in that context this one really stands out

Mississippi Butt Hurt (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Monday, 9 April 2012 22:41 (twelve years ago) link

Admitting it's a "poor black neighborhood" and then assuming the reason your bike was stolen was because the neighborhood is black.

Dude, you picked the wrong word.

^ underrated flavor in the jelly bellies mixed set

the white guilt article expresses its excruciatingly myopic choadness w/ surprising neatness - 'the right to treat everyone the same'

yeah that article pretty much is the *heart* of racism - one guy of a certain race (apparently) did something bad to me, so I'm going to look at that entire race differently, as though it's not okay to just hate a *person*

I like Pareene's joke:

"Wise up, White Americans. Your liberal parents lied to you when they said “this country’s centuries-old tradition of state-sponsored discrimination and institutional racism means a black person would never steal your bike, so just park that shit wherever.” "

true story: my brother's car was broken into and his stereo was stolen, so he went around the neighborhood to ask if anyone saw or heard anything. Our white neighbor told him he thought it might be the black kids that regularly walked down the street after school, and then he tried to sell my brother a hot car sterero he got from his cousin as a partial payment for weed.

my brother never said anything abt losing his white guilt that day iirc

HE HATES THESE CANS (Austerity Ponies), Tuesday, 10 April 2012 16:51 (twelve years ago) link

I didn't lose my white guilt, I left it parked down the street and someone stole it.

some dude, Tuesday, 10 April 2012 16:57 (twelve years ago) link

Someone did steal my bike once. That is all I was able to figure out about that one. The cops laughed at me and the dude at the closest pawn shop gave me a rough look for even inquiring about what he might know re: stolen bikes.

beachville, Tuesday, 10 April 2012 18:00 (twelve years ago) link

Got my bike seat stolen; blamed white people because I have a quick-release seat thing and I parked it by the street when they were reprinting the front porch for a week and I live in Portland.
