I used to travel to Indiana for work. There seemed to be signs everywhere for “Raper RV”. They seemed to be doing a brisk business. ---

Ah, yes, Tom Raper. I see his billboards constantly and have been ever since I was a little kid. They say women should never go over to his lot unaccompanied. ---

I, for one, would _love_ to see Jesse Jackson tell the Russians how to run their businesses. Maybe he could track down Putin and give him the what-for. In Siberia. Miles from the nearest town. ---

You’re doing it wrong. Fail. Unless this was some sort of cryptic commentary on the casual racist language/jokes being hurled about in this thread, to which you disagree with but was looking for the best ironic way of presenting this fact, and then (after some thought) assumed the role of a clueless white girl who doesn’t understand the awkward logic that all the posters have been using to churn out a sensible word pun of popular American sayings that include the (otherwise pejorative) word “Nigger” or it’s variations (Nigga/Niggas/etc…) but just seemingly likes to casually throw out racial slurs for fun without any hint of punchline… I see what you’re trying to do here… ---
