Anti-prejudicialismaphobia: The Final Word . . . and stuff
Since we all love a hearty discussion on race relations, and as always someone else has said it better before us, I posit the funniest website ever:
Black People Love Us!
High comedy, especially for those of you who have a similarly bizarre sense of humor ( librasoul? I'm looking in your direction)

My normally well maintained brain can't find the words to send to my mouth to describe this website.

I thought it was extremely rude and insensitive...until I read the "your letters" page. I understand the point that they're trying to get across, but I don't find it that amusing. If anything, I think it's more of a shocking-funny than a humorous-funny.

I think this site is freakin' hilarious. Some people are kinda sensitive when it comes to these matters, and while I have been in my share of race-related um... discussions here on GC, I AM a light-hearted individual about most things.
I don't think this site has the blinding ignorance of other things that get people fired up, I just think it pokes fun at a subject that most people are scared to talk about.
Honeykiss, you score MAJOR, MAJOR points for bring Roland into the mainstream! LOL!!
Achtung, I think THAT subject might be a little more touchy. I think this opinion might spark a debate, but oh well, lol. GC needs some drama.
There is a growing disdain in the Black community about becoming TOO Eurocentric and essentially trying to assimilate into the culture that white America has deemed "proper." When I say "white America" I do not mean each individual white person, I mean the majority in this country who dictate what our overall culture is supposed to be. It is somewhat of a paradox because Blacks are told that they should "fit in" and "speak properly" and just live up to a standard of whiteness in general. That is not only impossible but also impractical, because Blacks (as a WHOLE, not on an individual level) are systematically excluded from society, anyway. Does this makes sense?
Okay, I am done, lol. Let he flames commence.

Are you kidding?
Wow . . .
This site rails against the ridiculous stereotypes white people employ with their black "friends" . . . it's a joke, son. <<Foghorn Leghorn Voice>>
The whole site is one big farce, in case you missed it.
AND!!!
Because of that - it's funny.
If you don't find it amusing, that's fantastic . . . sorta . . . b/c I don't get how this is a sensitive subject.
If it were the classic "Black people drive like ________, White people drive like ________" crap, we'd all laugh.
Making fun of white people is FUNNY kids - we deserve it more than anyone.
Honestly, I'll posit for the crowd (see: Operation Ivy) that this is either funny, or offensive, and you thereby find your place on the fence - which might be a bit harsh, but maybe not . . .

No, I didn't "miss it," I just didn't find it funny like you obviously did.
