 My crazy in-law sent me a message on FB to "like" her status. I think I'll pass.


I wonder if she got that from the crazy people against Obama page she likes? Of course she did! I wonder what else they have to offer the world today?

Oh.


Okay.


The page is still full of crazy, racist dicks. Good to know.

I'm wondering if Zumba's that way since I've got someone on my facebook who's always raving about it to the point where she does a countdown until her Zumba session and when she recently went rappelling was crowing about her Zumba skills were a big help.
My kickboxing gym is definitely that way. I enjoy the workout or else I wouldn't still go but their facebook group can push into uncomfortable "conform or die" territory.

It wouldn't happen to be CKO would it? I've been going for a while because it is a great workout, but beyond that it almost feels like a bit of a cult mentality with some of the people.
It is CKO. I really enjoy most of the classes (there's an instructor I'm not really a fan of) but the people are a bit odd. I just shrug it off for the most part but it is weird.

In terms of how their police and prisons function, yeah, Europe is generally better, our police/prison problem is a problem in itself that our race problem intersects with. When it comes to how the general populace feels about immigrants, brown people, Muslims, Europeans are often racist as gently caress.
When I lived in the Netherlands (not Amsterdam) it was really shocking at first how blatant the racism was. I'm not even talking about the zwarte piet stuff but in every day life. There were numerous occasions where I witnessed retail people being snotty, obnoxious brats to darker skinned immigrants as they tried to communicate in dutch only to have them turn to me, a white immigrant, and joke about how "those people" needed to learn the language or get out. Half the time the person they were mocking spoke better dutch than I did but I was white so I'd learn eventually... it was strange.

 I don't even know. The person who posted this isn't really that smart while being extremely conservative so I kind of expect it from her. Still, really?
