Now that I’ve been drinking, I’ve come up with a new take on the thread title. What if it wasn’t a “punk-ass racist” but rather a “punk ass-racist”?
I get these disturbing images of John Lyden or Joe Keithley or Jello Biafra standing in the street, trousers down, screaming “White ass is the only true ass!”
Yeah, that’s a mental picture I want to go to sleep with.
—I knew I’d heard it recently in a movie and it just came to me… the guy stalking live raptors in Jurassic Park called one of them that, heh, just before it ate him.—
Oh great, now you’re on with the raptor sexism kick again. It was “clever GIRL”
I don’t see what’s so “easy” about Easyphil. Is he easy as a “punk?” Is he easy like Sunday morning? Am I a racist now for quoting Lionel Ritchie, who also happens to be black?
2trew beat me to the other punk joke. Bastard! (no offense to fatherless dopers, who would undoubtably be pitting me tomorrow for using “bastard” as an insult.)
You’re offending all the people with the name “Richie” who endure such a grammatical assault every day.
And I’m trying to imagine a “punk-ass”…Is that a rather individual ass who dyes its hair odd colors, doesn’t bother to pluck the dingleberries, and shows its disregard for the establishment by passing gas at inopportune moments? If so, my ass has been quite the punk (as far as the last term) this evening…
Funny, I’m white and I know the phrase “punk you out” means basically (in American black slang) “make you my bitch” which translates loosely to “anally rape you in order to assert my dominance over you.” By extension, “punk” itself has taken on the meaning of somebody who “gets punked” regularly. Not necessarily homosexual.
Maybe you should brush up before you start bitching about words whose meanings you really interpret broadly. Surely I don’t know more about “black culture” than you do? (Well, I did live in Irvington, NJ for 2 years, so maybe I do) Of course, that usage is really old – I think I first heard it on a Too Short album back in high school – so I don’t see how you don’t know of it.
Anyway, the OP is about the lamest pit rant I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen quite a few lately. If he called you “stupid nigger” then you’d have reason to complain. But “clever boy”? Nope.
Funny, I always though a punk was the guys with Pink Mohawks and a nose ring that had a chain connected to their waist by some form and they like to listen to the raido loud and waer leather liek that guy who flipped off Spock in Star Trek 4.
Anyway, didn’t that Senator from the South call Homer Simpson a “boy” on the last Simpsons?
Y’know, we already have a perfectly good word to identify those whose prejudices are based on spelling errors: orthographicist. There is no reason to go around coining new words such as “spellist,” you neologician. And, yes, I am a neologicist–and PROUD of it.
Funny indeed, did you look in the “American black slang” dictionary for that?
First of all you don’t know me or my frame of reference, you only know about your own and what you’ve experienced and if you feel comfortable making tremendous leaps based on that, cool, just know that, that is what you’re doing.
I wouldn’t have to complain then, he would have been banned.
No, genius**. I lived in a black household in a black neighborhood in a black suburb of a mostly black city. Amazingly enough, I managed to figure out what phrases meant based on context and usage. That’s the way it works. It’s my opinion that if you need to use a “slang dictionary,” you shouldn’t be using slang.
Give the man a cigar!! He got the point after all!! YOU are the one making a tremendous leap, you clever boy, you. :rolleyes:
**Wait a minute. Einstein was a Genius. So does that mean I’m degrading all German Jewish Physicists by calling you one? Does that make me a racist too?
Dewey, you mean you don’t peruse every thread of every poster to determine their race (re-introduced into an anonymous setting, no less) and purge every possible word that could be misinterpreted by the deliberately thin-skinned?
God, all he said was ‘Clever boy’ big deal, if you are offended by that then i’ve come to the Conclusion you’re a big baby, unless you’re offended by that as well
I found the OP quite funny. I spat out my coffee, pissed my pants and my retinas burst. Ha, he sure cheats them… AND HOW!!!
But shirley ujest, it’s clear that he wasn’t intending to be racist.
