So you see no harm in mocking someone because their name is foreign? It would be the same thing as mocking him because it looks like he is squinting.

oh come on, it's not like his name is Charley Chan or some shit.

If you could list some "Domestic" names, I would love to read and learn.

Is it inter-race racism when..oh I don't know...every journalist and blogger uses the last name of the person 2nd-in-line to be president to reference an erect penis?

To be up front, I don't know what the fuck is so funny about the picture.

i'm with you on this one.

i also don't get the jj watt reference.

EDIT:

and if the "joke" is just "hu's (who's) on first" then oldsmoboat.

What you can't see outside of the frame is actually a giant gong inside of an opium den, next to a railroad under construction.

Despicable.

To be fair, that man is a raging dick.

Thanks Google. So, if Watt was on second, the OP would be racist against Irish and Scottish people.

What an idiotic argument.

I agree. it ranks up there with getting pissed on the use of "savage" when one race did something disgusting and acting like a savage (using the dictionary referencE).


both are silly!

If I remember correctly, "savage" did not become off limits strictly because it is an epithet, but because it was being constantly repeated as a thinly-veiled mod callout.

Maybe someone was unlucky and was vacationed after using the word innocently, but most of its usage was done with a wink and a nod to the rest of ATOT.

well see i thought it was banned because some racist were useing "savage" as code word for black male.

though some got banned for useing it correctly (or getting infractions).
