Questions for white people [the U.S edition]

Traveling on the magical, super-secret whitey roads.

White! It’s always white!

Well, you do realize the snow is white?

Can you imagine the uproar if there was a topic for questions for darkies?

:smack:

Given my years on the board and the replies posted here, the “uproar” would be as loud as a mouse pissing on cotton.

Then what the %$@# was up with that insipid OP?
[/QUOTE]

The OP were questions that I have. I am not going to argue people’s answers in this folder, if I were interested in debating people’s answers, I would have posted in Great Debates. I did not. I asked for people’s input, they gave it, what else do you expect of me? To bicker back and forth with posters about people’s answers? To point out their join date? To refer to them as a troll? To truncate one’s questions as to blur its meaning? To make a bunch of snide remarks without addressing the OP at all? I won’t do that. That’s not my style. Sorry.

Apology accepted.

It was just so damned obnoxious, is all.
White people are not one giant hive mind. There are plenty non-white folks who are judgmental about welfare and abortion. I don’t even understand your link between white people and fixing roads or sending money to other countries. You just set up all kinds of racist stereotypes with these assumptions about white people.

I’m a single (white) mom on welfare/food stamps. I’ve had an abortion. I have no say in where our tax dollars go (despite this mystical ability to vote that seems to be available to people of ALL skin colors in the US). I think if you say you’re white, you’re white. I don’t care if you’re just one-fourth white or lily white. It doesn’t matter to me. It shouldn’t matter period. Our own president decided what to call himself. He has one black and one white parent but he associates more with being black, and that’s fine. If he called himself white or mixed that would be fine too. The love of my life is Mexican and prefers to be called brown. I thought he looked white personally but he does not, and that is fine too.

I don’t think one way or another about Puerto Rico, to be honest. I have enough on my plate worrying about immigration reform and the fact that people are still freaking out about “Illegals” when deportations are higher than they’ve ever been and immigration has fallen even more. That love of my life was deported when the sensible thing would have been to grant him a green card and let him continue to work his labor job and bring in an income and pay taxes like he did for almost 20 years before ICE shipped him back to Mexico, a place he knows little about after being in the US most of his life.

ANYWAY . . .

As for cocks, blech.No matter what you call them, they’re still icky and look like organs that should be INSIDE a body. But then I feel the same way about feet.

What have you learned from these responses?

If we’re lucky, our penises do get to be inside a body on occasion. But feet… now that’s just kinky.

Yeah, if you don’t mind.

Honesty, I understand that you don’t want to debate in this thread; that’s not what I mean. But I am curious about whether you feel like some of your questions have been answered in a way that clarifies anything for you or, instead, if you were only considering this thread to be an educational experience for us.

“I’m not racist! I have a white friend. Also, he’s half Jewish, so I have “I jewed them down” privileges!”

Tan = spend exactly 14 minutes in the sun, because any more and I’ll have to peel of the red skin to get to the even whiter stuff underneath.

Naaah.

We need to stop it from being a state, or else Puerto Ricans will no longer have to go through the hassle of simply buying a plane ticket and not needing a passport in order to move to the US. Now the bastards will be able to buy a plane ticket and not get a passport in order to move.

Google “cat penis” or “duck penis” for what the inside body ones look like/do. Shudder. Or “cock cock” I imagine.

Question for Black people:

Since you use the expression “you must be trippin’!” does that mean you guys can still find LSD? Because we haven’t seen any around for years.

With respect to the bolded portion, it would be nice for you to indicate whether you take those answers seriously.

Your OP is laden with questions that rely on acceptance of some pretty contentious assumptions. To be sure, you do provide a few data points that you imply support the validity of those assumptions (or perhaps I should say you imply that they establish their validity), but you are clearly demanding that their truth be taken as givens, and the questions approached from that baseline. The generalizations in many of them are pretty provocative. Under the circumstances, I think it’s not unreasonable to expect of you some display of your bona fides, to show that provocation is not you primary goal in posting this OP.

Excuse me, I have a post to report.

In other words, ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer.

Not me and ‘the boys’. Whenever there’s strangers comin around and stirrin up things, we only use klaverns. And, local sheriff’s offices.

Whenever we can get the pickups runnin.

ETA: I didn’t notice-did the OP ask if we knew that the US isn’t named America, yet?

The latter.

Snide remarks are the most appropriate response to a snide OP filled with factually incorrect information and false premises. I’m shocked this has not been moved to the Pit.

Every **Honesty **post can be summarized as “Look at me, look how non-white I am!”

Or one could STFU and not say anything at all. God knows that exactly what you do when the monthly “BLKS R STUPID!111!1” thread appears in Great Debates. Just be silent like you’ve always been.

Very little, though puddlegum’s post was probably the most enlightening.

When you all fix your roads, I’ll give a damn what you think is a stupid question or not. In the mean time, enjoy your swiftly moving, no pot-hole, four lane freeway in Los Angeles. I hear it takes an hour to traverse a few miles, have fun with your trip, that’s your tax dollars at work for you.

Neither. Questions were answered but there was no consensus

Where do you get this laughable idea that white people own the roads?

Let’s flip through the Book of Presidents. What do you see?
Let’s flip through the Book of Vice Presidents. What do you see?
Let’s flip through the Book of Speaker of the Houses. What do you see?
Let’s flip through the Book of Supreme Court Justices. What do you see?
Let’s flip through the Book of the House of Representatives. What do you see?
Let’s flip through the Book of the Senate. What do you see?
Let’s flip through the Census Data of 2010. What do you see?

What I see a government that was and still is principally white, a government that does not fund its roads, a government that does not adequately fund the arts and sciences or education, and a government that can’t have annum without the government collapsing due to selfishly not paying its bills. I see a populace that is principally white that vote in people who can’t even do the People’s business. So yeah, I think white people own the roads (and the voting booth, too). How literal you choose to take the word “own” is, of course, up to you.

  • Honesty

You do understand that the roads are maintained by taxes and that not only white people pay taxes, correct? Oh, I forgot, reparations would make all of these problems go away :rolleyes:

This has got to be the most misinformed and plain stupid thread of the month.
