There's uh more here than just using the N-word Fatbeard.

I know, and I'm not exactly thrilled about it. Chalk this up for me being a regular on 4chan and encyclopedia dramatica which has become a racist hellhole. Thus my casual racism, even though I'm not hiding butthurt behind those words. But I agree that I really came off as an rear end in a top hat in that post.

Look, if you're tempted to use American slang, throw the word into Google and do a little research first. And if always, when in doubt, leave it out.

This is where fine-tuning your English (which, dude, your English is SO GOOD) using the internet is kind of tricky.

Definitely don't compare ANYONE to monkeys, though.

I wish I had an african-american buddy, that would've been so cool. You can never tell to whom you're talking on the internet, which is sort of romantic. But I bet that I have african american friends on SA without knowing, and that is. So. drat. Cool.

Btw, I shaved off my beard but I kept the burns and a mario mustache. The beard is now stewing in a plastic bag and mr weed and I are going to make a funeral pyre for the beard. I bet it's gonna stink to high hell, that's why we're going to do it outside.

I've grown so accustomed to having hair on my face that I feel really strange now. I'm gonna maintain the burns and the stache with a brand new electric razor I bought the other day.

We are of coursr going to film the smelly funeral pyre! :getin:

That�s the part I think needs highlighted is that this will always be seen as unacceptable and �fighting words� .

The N-word thing has been covered here well already I think. It�s best to just not use it, but the other... never use it.

I love the implication that the funeral pyre for the beard would've, under regular circumstances, been held indoors. Never change ASF :allears:

This was already a conversation years ago when he referred to black people as "chimping out" and then called them "dindus." He hangs out in insanely racist shitholes, probably not to appreciate their web design, and it shows.

I think ASFB is a good person at heart but referring to people of color in simian terms is offensive in any culture. It cannot, imo, be chalked up to a language barrier. He's also shown that his command of the English language is excellent.

So, knock that off man.

I watched a man jokingly drop the hard-r N in front of 900 employees at a site safety meeting last week. We're still debating if he did it just to get fired as head of this clusterfuck of a project or not. Even the casual racists I work with were quite outraged.

It's a bad word to use casually in 2019.

As I see the problem, the thing is that I like to talk poo poo about things I don't really understand, not unlike your average 13 year old chan edgelord. I've always thought about how mr weed and I are like Jerry and Kramer, and Vesna is Elaine. Today I realized that I'm racist, just like Kramer, and it feels bad man.

Casual racism seems to me like a new Communism thing in America, a big scary boogeyman to be feared and shunned. I won't delve into the details, just let it be known that I'm sorry and that I should have known better, especially at my age.

Also, I was completely unaware that there was a racist shooting in NZ on the day I wrote the offending post, I first heard the news from ED's front page article which, looking in retrospect, explains a lot. I don't watch the news because I'm always getting pissed off about things I don't have any influence over, and I don't need that in my life. Basically, I handled the issue with tact and gracefulness of a three-legged cow in a sandpit, as usual.

I'll post a picture of myself later today, so that all of you can see how a horrible, terrible racist looks alike! :getin:

So this picture is of me, taken a few minutes ago in the kitchen.

And this is mr weeds kitty, Olyushka, getting ear scritches. I found many cat pictures on my phone, it was a pleasant surprise!

Vesna doesn't like the mustache, so I'm definitely keeping it, it's an official Vesna repellent device. Facial hair is a commie thing, girls don't understand!

Lyrica is one hell of antidepressant, I've been taking for over a year and I still can't believe how well it works on me, it's a real godsend.

It is also used to treat dumb little babby problems such as pants making GBS threads because of ibs. I can now go out and go to work without having to think where the nearest toilet is, or at least a pack of bushes if thing really start going south on me, poop wise, and I'm adventuring outside.

Unfortunately lyrica is abusable like nuts, so you need to be disciplined with it. I did the unthinkable and started taking lyrica as prescribed to me, this drug is just too good to abuse it, it's a huge waste. Even more unthinkable is that I cut ties with drug baba and now the only drug I'm using is good old mary jane, though I must admit that I'm smoking copious amounts of it, and it's having a positive impact on me because I can really EAT while I'm smoked out, and I need all the nutrition I can get because I've grown really skinny from eating maybe once a day the past few months. Once again, it is mr weed to the rescue. His wife gave me a few beef steaks last night and I was beyond thrilled about them because even though I like canned food (drunkard grub) I developed an aversion to them because they remind me of material poverty and all the poo poo I've been going through in the past few years.

The new tenant, the lady with a doggo, is paying rent like clockwork. I wonder, do I finally have tenants who are not giving me a hard time? Looks like so, and it's incredible! *knocks on wood*

I'm thinking about writing a post about that one time when I narrowly avoided getting shanked in the army because I was extremely racist back then and I gathered all kinds of negative attention, only to get cured of my racism in the end. Have I told you that story guys? Someone jog my memory because I sure as hell don't remember!

The grocery stores used to carry peanut butter in the 90s, but it sold so poorly that all the stores have since dropped it. I'd have to go completely out of my way to hunt down pb in zagreb. An european counterpart to pb is loving nutella and a billion of "me too" products, all of which are gross tubs of grease, not unlike american peanut butter. I tried pb back in the day and I didn't like it very much. That being said, I have some peanut butter in my apartment - it's the bait in roach traps. Roaches go absolutely bonkers around this stuff.
