Maybe they thought it was some sort of racist sexual innuendo-- Fell-out-tio

Wow man, and I thought I said some stupid quirky remarks.

Saying "fell out" is a GHETTO way of saying "passed out" or "fainted."

Does that make it racist? YOU do the math, Jim Crow!

This is the only case that makes sense to me, that since it is a more slang term that it must hold some sorta racial undertone to someone who is so PC motivated they cant see it any other way.

Whomever thought this was a racist term neither knows what they are talking about nor what racist means. But hey, I call a spade a spade.


FYI - a Spade is a type of shovel. Not all shovels are spades.

I hate these morons.

i just jumped out of my car

please feel free to lambast me for using the term jumped out....i am sorry

 

[otispunkmeyer]

the only way i can think of "fell out" being bad is

saying a woman fell out of her top

ie let the puppies out to play accidentally

..who knows how their liberal guilt complex contorts their thought process. From their point of view everything is potentially offensive.

 

[Genx87]

Call their bluff and have them provide proof of this "slur".

 

[BooGiMaN]

the only thing i can think of is they dont liek the video or dont want to pay for it so they are using some obscure thing ..i mean they wont even tell you where its used or what it means..sounds fishy to me...


what race, nationailty, gender, age, sexual orientation are they at least that may narrow it down?
