Are You Talking about The Post In The "Clown Bin"???
When you are a little older,and hopefully a LOT wiser.You may know a little more abot English Demographics.I surmise that the reference to "Niggers in Newcastle" has more to do with "Coal Miners" than African Immigrants.
As I stated in the "Clown Bin",I love discussing "Race Relations" and cultural differences.Having been married to a black Dominican for 10 years,with 3 "mixed race" children may play a part in my interest.
However,we don't "Do" race relations on DR1 for the obvious reasons.Some people are ALWAYS "Offended",some people are always "Offensive"!What may start out as a thread with possibilities ends up in name calling.
I lived in Boston for 25 years.It may be the most biggoted city in the USA!I was "congratulated" on my wedding by an "Irish" friend who said'Hey Tom,I hear you married a "Nigger"!I told him "Yes, I Made It Legal,your wife just keeps screwing them for fun!"I now live in Santo Domingo,Dominican Republic,which may be the most "Color Concious" Country in the WORLD!
My mother taught me that,"Sticks and stones(and 100lb lazer guided "smart bombs too!)can break my bones,but names can never hurt me!"
Took me a while to find out WHY that is true.(somewhere around 50 years!)It is because anyone who would call me a "name" is so far off my radar scope as to be undetectable! They don't matter.They don't exist.Nothing they can say will I allow to bother me in any way!!They can not penetrate my defenses!
Works when my asks for money too!
Since there are not too many "jokes" that can offend "Gays",and "Scottsmen" at the same time,I submit the following:
Did you hear about the two gay Scottsmen????
Morris Fitzpatric,and Patric Fitzmorris!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Or.,,,,, Did you hear about the two gay Scottsmen?
Ben Dune,and Phil McCavity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you belong to a specific Ethnic,economic,or aare some kind of "Gender Bender",and would like to be made fun of in the Clown Bin,please post there with your "Group",and we will do our best!
