Yeah.

I like this. But maybe I'm just an unpleasant could-be-white woman if not for the chip.

[skywardprodigal]

Yes! Only, unlike the one Spike has, it gives me splitting headaches when I refrain from eating white people.

[delux_vivens]

My husband had a Cherokee great-grandmother, so I am In Touch with the Native American heritage and have solidarity with my people! I make authentic dreamcatchers! Ask me about my sweat lodge!

My great-great grandmother was from Goa and I've inherited her mystical Indian talent for hotel management and extracting money from white tourists. Sign up now for my extremely expensive competitively-priced seminars. Think of it as an investment in my bank-balance your future prosperity and karmic well-being.

1. I couldn't believe the commentor on neadods' post who tried claiming The Black and White Minstrel Show was "ironic". Dude, IT WAS A MINSTREL SHOW! o_O

as Americans don't get irony anyway obviously they're in no position to understand this salient fact.

Now, honey, you know stereotypes are (a) all true and (b) never hurt anyone. /irony (which you won't understand, obviously, what with being 'merican 'n' all).

2. They should form the Royal Society for the Protection of Ron Weasleys or something.

5. Multiculturalism is for losers. Fascistic monoculturalism is The Way of the Future. "If your shirt ain't black and your boots ain't brown then get back Jack cos you can't get down!"
