Excellent simulpost!
The homepage would seem to indicate as much . . . “fighting ignorance since 1973” I take to mean fighting ignorance.
He asked a question. If you’re going to cry racist, why not try to do something about it?
A while ago there was a thread that tried to trash everything French. I was offended to the point of shaking. I could have just said “you bigoted fuck. how the hell do you make these unfounded claims”? Instead I educated. Served a much better purpose.
and smith . . . whether or not you’re really black and from nigeria, there are a great number of posters who have heard that defense several times and didn’t buy it the first time they saw it.
Yep. Every last damned post in the pit is dedicated to fighting ignorance 
Come on Iampunha… I don’t think I am alone in not actually debating in the pit when somebody makes me see red. Sure in my young idealistic days I might have decided to educate him but this time I called it as I see it. ::shrug::
Tell you what, you can swap warm fuzzies with him now 
Obviously the re-education plan worked wonders. Today Smithwow, tomorrow the KKK!
Er . . . what, exactly, is a “white date?” Is that when it snows between dinner and the movie?
Fine. But I see ignorance. I’d like to try to stop it. Given a topic there are going to be people who say “you’re a sickening pile of festering puss and I hope you step on a rusty nail twice the thickness of your head tomorrow”. There are also, I hope, going to be people who try to educate. I’m not one or the other all the time. Right now I’d like to see why in the bloody hell smithwow thinks as he does.
andros, a white date is one without any spaghetti sauce on it.
I dunno andros, I thought it was something really kinky envolving food.
or a fruit with no pigment.
Smithwow, that ‘testing you’ shit doesn’t fly well around here. At all. If you want evidence of how we treat people with certain views use the search function or wander around and read old threads. We keep them around for educational purposes. You don’t have to agree with everyone here, but be yourself. Stupid is as stupid does.
OK, and I’m a blonde haired, blue eyed, 5 foot 10 inch tall 120 lb supermodel.
Kindly go peddle this bullshit elsewhere. Thankseversomuchforplaying.
Heh. Nigerian.
Now you’re going to ask if you can stash a couple of million in my bank account to, aren’t ya?
You know what, for fun, I’m going to give you the benefit of the doubt. For now.
First of all, let it be known that we don’t like “tests” like this at the SMDB.
Second, you have 12 hours to convince me that you are a Nigerian native or this thread dies. And I don’t want shit that you looked up in the “Nigeria” section of the World Almanac, I want insider info. Which ethnic group do you consider yourself a member to be? How has that affected your life in Nigeria. When did you move to the US? I want to you hear you say “We are quite proud of our extensive oil deposits and rice is one of our staple crops” in Hausa.
Until then I will leave this thread open for others to continue to ask questions so you can prove your proud Nigerian heritage. Or to point fingers and laugh until you do.
Because I can tell you one thing, your IP sure as hell doesn’t resolve to Nigeria. Not even close.
Consider me pointing a finger (you guess which one) and laughing. I’m not going to work too hard here. I save that kind of effort for creationist trolls, not bigot asshole “I-was-just-testing” trolls.

No further comments, just thought I’d bring it up.
So you’re a Nigerian jackass.
Oh…but no one would post such a HORRID thing as serious…NO racist would go back on his word blah blah blah fishcakes.
Bite me.
(Well, he said he comes from Nigeria-it doesn’t mean he’s still there…not that that helps in anyway…)
:rolleyes:
You know, I was just READING about Serlin…ironic, don’t you think?
Oh, goodie! A test! :::claps hands:::
Do, do clue us in on your rigorous scientific methods when publishing your report!
Know what I think when I see people dating/entwined, etc., of different “colors”, same sexes, whatever? Ain’t none of my business. Way too little grace, charity, whatever in this hard world so cheers to thems that finds it.
Nah, I don’t get upset over other people discovering miracles in fellow folk.
Sneaky hate mongers turn my stomach, however.

Well, shoot, talk about deja vu. The last time someone led me down the garden path like this, only to jump out from behind the gazebo and yell, “Surprise!” was last summer, and it had to do with someone’s family being killed, or maybe it was “not really being killed”, by Nazis (or maybe it was Bosnians, I forget).
So I guess that once again I don’t see any of the kind of ignorance here that I’m equipped to fight, not having been blessed with mutant powers, but just another Pit rant. IMO, you can save your breath, Iampunha, (and your pixels, sweetie. You’ve got the cutest little pixels…)
Whoops, I forgot to check which color your pixels are…Are they white or black? If they’re the other color, then I get to–use–them…shamefully…
BTW, is there a husky white brunette in this thread? There’s a black cellist out here with a Hah-vahd accent who says he’s her date…
What’s this about handsome black educated cellists?
Dated white guys, dated black guys, dated Asian guys, dated Latino guys. Equal opportunity slut. God bless America!

Well, I’m a short and very curvy brunette who is white.
Do I count?
Hm. Nothing. I was hoping for a coming of age tale about growuing up near Ijebu-Ode or something, but nothing.
Oh well. I figure one of two things will happen.
1)Despite this “admission”, smithwow will post more and indirectly reveal his true colors, as it were…
2) smithow, now cowering in shame by not only realizing his racism is not shared by the overwhelming majority of SDMB posters, but that he made of some wacky lie to try to sva ehis reputation, will fade away into SDMB obscurity.
For now, I am closing this thread as a lesson for anyone else who decides to “test” the SDMB.
