@bowandlyre That word is most definitely /not/ kawaii though. :U
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:07:25 UTC from web-
@mastertdi It's a funny word but Widget doesn't like it :c

@mastertdi He thinks it's racist. It isn't. There was a long winded conversation the other day clarifying why it isn't. Basically "If I call myself an X I can't complain when somebody else calls me X" and also it's an easy way to separate good black people from bad black people.

@bowandlyre Do you call yourself a "cracker"? If no, then yes. In any case white people usually are grown up enough not to cry at every "racist" word uttered against them. Thankfully we are devoided of racial paranoia.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:13:08 UTC from web-
@nerthos I should start calling myself a cracker. It'd be the funniest thing since rape at my school... Wait that's not funny... I'll STFU now

@maou I don't even know what's supposed to mean.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:19:09 UTC from web-
@nerthos he's saying being called a cracker is about as offensive as being called smelly.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:19:47 UTC from web-
@flamingpandaomg Let me rephrase: "I don't even know what cracker is supposed to mean"

@nerthos Cracker was used against white people bacause of the whip cracking that happened during slave times.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:21:45 UTC from web-
@bowandlyre @scribus Oh well, I don't see how being able to crack a whip is bad. Let them call me that then.

@bowandlyre It sounds hilarious. I'd just reply "'SUUUUP MAH HOMIE"
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:28:10 UTC from web-
@nerthos ....it also doesn't help no one says WHAT'S UP MY CRACKER, they say 'What the hell do you think you're doing, you stupid a** cracker.' <--- HATEFUL intent.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:29:20 UTC from web-
@flamingpandaomg That's when I pull my knife and reply with a "Who do you think you're talking to like that, you undereducated felon"
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:31:06 UTC from web-
@nerthos ..yep. Because pulling a knife on someone would fly well in the US.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:31:56 UTC from web-
@flamingpandaomg They're usually cowards who swarm on people, not pulling one would be suicide, and seeing how USA's courts are biaised in favor of black people just out of some sense of "birthright" it's better to scare them off than to get ganged upon.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:33:28 UTC from web-
@nerthos I didn't say you'd get jumped, I'm saying pulling a knife would get YOU in trouble with the justice system. :|
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:35:47 UTC from web-
@flamingpandaomg If it's only one, then I wouldn't need the knife.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:36:57 UTC from web -
@flamingpandaomg Also justice=/= law.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:37:12 UTC from web-
@nerthos that's what it's called here.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:40:56 UTC from web-
@flamingpandaomg The words are usually swapped, since most people don't know the difference. Hence why they call "justice system" what in fact is just the law system.

@nerthos I like your style
-
@foxgopher I used to deal with those types on a daily basis. Fear is the only thing they understand. If you give the impression of being weaker than them, they'll mug you.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:34:59 UTC from web-
@nerthos Makes sense. Hasn't happened to me yet, but I keep preparing for that day it will.
-
@foxgopher I'm basically waiting for a civil war to explode due to populism.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:38:17 UTC from web-
@nerthos I keep saying we're overdue
-
@foxgopher I honestly don't know anything about the situation over there.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:40:58 UTC from web-
@nerthos There's just a huge lack of value
-
@foxgopher That happens almost everywhere, due to globalization.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:42:42 UTC from web-
@nerthos The mark of our generation
-
@foxgopher Hence why I want to wipe it.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:45:51 UTC from web-
@nerthos Probably not too far off
-
-
-
-
@foxgopher there's a lack of value pretty much anywhere though.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:42:42 UTC from web-
@flamingpandaomg America is getting crazy though. And stupid. I just feel like if there was another global scale war that we could live through, things would improve. Prior would be less stupid about decisions and we'd go forward technologically. Look at WW2

@nerthos I'm gonna start calling my friends crackers just to see theire reaction. Could be funny

@nerthos it's a term people of another ethnicity use to refer to white people.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:22:17 UTC from web-
@flamingpandaomg So basically racism?
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:23:25 UTC from web-
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:24:07 UTC from web
-
@flamingpandaomg Man this whole racial slurs thing is taken seriously when in reality it's just five-year-old style behavior, like "you have the cooties"
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:25:41 UTC from web-
@nerthos yep. But that's because it's usually said with a hateful intent.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:27:33 UTC from web-
@flamingpandaomg Basically, I consider the intent more than the word. Like, if someone really wanted to hurt my feelings when they called me a jerk, I'd be offended. It'd be like, "Really? You couldn't put any more thought into it than jerk? Geez, man..."
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:29:11 UTC from web -
@flamingpandaomg Unless it's KKK grade "we'll burn you in a cross because of your skin" stuff, racism is stupid and people should stop crying about it.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:29:19 UTC from web-
@nerthos @scribus I know it's more about intent. I'm just saying usually when racist stuff is said, it's either done with hate behind it, or used as comedy.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:31:37 UTC from web-
@flamingpandaomg Stick and stones...
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:32:06 UTC from web-
@nerthos I know, I know. I'm not saying I get offended by it. Just that's why other people do.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:32:53 UTC from web

@flamingpandaomg I mean, you can't have people stop hating eachother. There's no reason to make a scene out of it.

@nerthos I mean if someone called me a cracker it wouldn't be offensive. Because crackers are tasty. Step up, racial slurs.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:20:36 UTC from StatusNet Android-
@maou Crackers are nice with cheese and ham.

@maou I never tried it.

@nerthos You didn't grow up in the hood like me and @StarlightBolt
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:26:08 UTC from StatusNet Android-
@maou I'be scored an almost perfect score in the privilege roulette.

@maou What chart?
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:38:26 UTC from web-
@nerthos There's this cute little chart that adds and subtracts numbers based on a few things. It determines of you need to check your privileges.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:46:37 UTC from StatusNet Android-
@maou Check as in acquire more, or based in that stupid concept of "feel guilty because you weren't born with a crippling disability"?
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:48:08 UTC from web-

@bowandlyre Yep this seems like a good conversational topic
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:14:42 UTC from web-
@scoot Only the best conversational topics for RDN.

@scoot We can't just ban topics based on the assumption that some kid might be offended about it. As long as the discussion is polite and has no intent of offense, it's completely OK.
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:17:03 UTC from web-
@nerthos I didn't say that we needed to ban the conversation topic at any point there, in fact I just made a sarcastic joke (as usual)
Tuesday, 07-May-13 19:19:02 UTC from web-
@scoot Just covering all possibilities.
