Yeah thanx for commenting on my reason for using excessive exclamation marks. Whitese sounds better.


I wonder if the government will find a way to add a tariff to those cars...

rrrriiiight, keep dreamin. any imported car that takes the place of a car actually built in america, makes the economy worse off. your adding cars not people to buy them, so instead of joe schmoe buying a car built by who knows how many americans, he'll buy the cheaper car built by people willing to work for pennies.

This comes to mind, have you guys met anyone of a given color who seriously thinks they should've been born into another color?

My cousins best friend is white and seriously thinks she's Vietnamese. She even tries to pick up on the accent. I don't know, it's hard to explain..but she swears she's supposed to be Viet, Fxcking dumbass.

Isn't that saying only black people talk improperly?

It's weird, but I can understand someone acting like that if they were from SF, Philly, Jersey etc..it just grows on you, kinduv like the New York accent for those who live there, ya know? Whoa, that was such a long fxcking sentence.

I used to listen to rap/hip hop and g0sh I am [i]so[/s] not black.

I get what you're saying though, it's the wannabes.

people tell me I try to be black because I listen to rap (even though I listen to just about EVERYTHING.. so that must mean I try to be a raver, a metal kid and a nu-metal kid too) and because I dress "the way I do" even though I wear button up shirts with stripes and jeans all the time.. Yea, real gangster.
