I’ve always known **Askia** was a dude. He’s too good with the smack talk without letting it get personal to be of the female persuasion. (Thereby opening a completely new can of worms that will degenerate into a train-wreck of epic proportions! 😃 ) ---

I thought everybody on the Dope was an attractive black chick from NYC. Kinda puzzled me that you were all on a message board based out of Chicago. Then I figured it out … that made it harder for The Man to give you any shit. ---

You may have been the first, but you weren’t the last 😉 I mean hey, if anyone ever asked "Which Doper name begins with “A” and ends with “on”, there’d probably be quite a few different answers to that. On top of that, if _you and I \* are both posting in a thread, and somebody doesn’t use quotes and addresses “ **Ana** ”… agh! Utter confusion! Brian melting!_ - - Exaggeration. It’s usually pretty obvious. But _still_! ---

I keep you apart by a simple device: **Anastasia** is the black New Yorker (Anastasia rhymes with Asia), while **Anamika** is married to **Askia** , the Athabaskan now living in Detroit. ---

I knew **Askia** is a guy (I tend to pay more attention to the guys, if you catch my drift). But I had no clue that **auntie em** was black. Now, for the obvious question – is TweeBoy black or white? I have no intention of inciting to riot or anything, I’m just curious, and to me, it’s a very obvious question. Carry on. ---

> [@Feydeau](#): > > But I had no clue that **auntie em** was black. Now, for the obvious question – is TweeBoy black or white? Tweeboy, judging from the userphotos on his LJ, is blindingly, incandescently, scintillatingly white. You could lose all optic function if you happened to catch a glimpse of him nekkid, from what I can see. ---

> [@jayjay](#): > > Tweeboy, judging from the userphotos on his LJ, is blindingly, incandescently, scintillatingly white. You could lose all optic function if you happened to catch a glimpse of him nekkid, from what I can see. After retiring, I plan on moving to the coast where I can be used as a backup to a lighthouse. And, besides, I may not be black now, but **auntie em** promised me a membership card when we got married. (It hasn’t arrived yet–and that’s why I still reach for the Air Supply instead of Bootsy Collins–but it will. She said so.) ---

**Askia** , for the record I knew you were a guy even before I fell into the Dope’s comic circle. **Monstro** ’s a girl? A Black girl? A hot Black girl with a hot sister? I need cites, people. I didn’t realize that there was a **Monstre** until I read his post upthread. ---
