rolling "Is This Racist?" thread

etymologically, it refers to a figure made of tar, which some sort of folktale figure (Bre'r Rabbit? Anansi? both?) punched and then got stuck to.

But it sure does sound racist.

weird site don

1. jesus christ yes "tar baby" is a fucking racist term wtf why is this even a question
2. this:

This isn't the first time Politico's Romano has used racially-coded language on MSNBC. In March, in the heat of the gun control debate, Romano attacked NRA spokesman Wayne LaPierre as a "tired old white guy."

is some all time moving the goal posts shit in that article

what is "tired old white guy" code for

NRA spokesman

i remember horrible twenty yo irish dudes ordering bud in proper pubs like and grinning

Yes it is racist, and I am a bad person for having clicked that link.

ty for clicking though, now I know I don't have to

Can't tell you you're welcome, too busy showering myself for ever and never feeling clean again.

theres a whole elite daily thread full of choice content which u are now obliged to read

took one for the team

In any other city, that would probably fly.

You know what they say - white on the outside, watermelon in the middle.

i would probably eat that

looks like it's sticking out its tongue

I cannot stand "watermelon." Would love to know what the industrial name for that flavor is.

Yellow on the outside, gay in the middle.

i have a controversial opinion: golden oreos are 100x better than regular oreos

COOKIE-IST

i'ma go buy a thing of those oreos, unless this thread determines them to be racist

there's nothing racist about the delcious flavor of watermelon

watermelon juice, now that's what's up

i think i could probably eat an entire watermelon in one day, perhaps even one sitting... but i'd probably have to tether myself to the bathroom for at least 8 hours afterwards

Watermelon is one of those "is it worth the effort" fruits.

and the answer is almost always "YES, GOD YES"

It's too messy!

I like it when someone has cut it up and taken out the seeds though. Then it's pretty good.

Sometimes the mess is fun but it's sort of an eat it outside only fruit for me because it's just too juicy and gets everywhere. Yes, I am five.

Also, are those Oreos real?

No part of those Oreos have been within a mile of a watermelon or any part of a watermelon, until they reach a grocery store and are shelved within 100 yards of the produce dept.

watermelon oreos seriously what the everloving fuck is even happening

pro tip: watermelon slices suck, they are messy. here's what you do instead: get one of the seedless kinds, more expensive but totally worth it. cut it in half. using a long knife, make cuts so that you cross section it up, like a tic tac toe board. use a big spoon to scoop out each chunk. you end up with these huge watermelon chunks that you can eat out of a bowl and when you bite into a really juicy one (if the melon's good) it's basically like heaven

watermelons are supposed to be messy. just like ribs.

Thank you for pro-tip.

I would eat most of those Kits or at least try them. They're not even that compared to the ones in Japan. Have you see some of those?

OH MAN I NEED THESE IN MY LIFE

Would try all of these including Red Bean and Wasabit but those watermelon oreos still look gross as hell:

Wasabi, even

my friend brought me back some green tea kit kats, they were.. . ... okay

Yeah, I've heard similar from other people. Still want to try them. Now all I can think about are the cinammon cookie ones though. Damn. Also, purple sweet potato!

Japanese Kit-Kats rule

another watermelon pro-tip: buy a smaller melon, cut in half, scoop out luscious watermelon balls with an ice cream scoop

i like putting salt on my watermelon

i like putting salt on your mom's watermelon

*giggle*

so Paula Deen

see the Paula Deen thread

Also do we need to ask if someone answering the question "have you ever used the word 'nigger'?" with "Yes, of course" is racist? Is that where we are as a society?

there's a paula deen thread?
