I know I'm a late queen with this, but I don't care.
That racism thread was really illuminating. I have always wondered how white people justified things like reverse racism and using the word *****. It seems they have a "they can so why can't I?" mentality. And it's really sad. They clearly either aren't aware of the centuries of oppression that racial minorities have faced or the way that racism affects racial minorities on a scale that white people have NEVER experienced. Basically, it's what happens when white people don't realize how powerful white privilege is.
And is it ME, or is racism really becoming an even more obvious problem than norman this summer? And I don't just mean on ATRL. With the Paula Dean mess, the Trayvon Martin trial, and the repealing of a section of the Voters Rights act of 1965, it's clear that racism still exists, but there are people out there that STILL try to deny it's impact.
True. It's always been there, it's just news now as it's sort of 'frowned' upon, whereas back in the day that was LIFE for our parents.
Mac Miller kinda SLAYED Ye, Jigga and everybody a bit.
!
Mac is really dope. He isn't a GREAT rapper by any means, but, he is a solid lyricist + producer.
People are just quick to dismiss him without giving him a chance because he's white.
Mac gets extra credit from me for sampling Nas on 'Nikes On My Feet'
I do remember ONE time I went to McDonald's at 3am intending to order an Angus 3rd Pounder meal.
When my ass ORDERED they said they were out of Patties, so I ordered a Big Mac meal.
The Big Mac was your run of the mill Big Mac, No observable problem BUT the fries were NASTY AS HELL! I could NOT finish that mess.I threw it in the TRASH
Next time I get hungry at 3am and want to go out to eat, I'm taking my ass down to Waffle House.At least that ratchet ass restaurant is a bit more consistent.
Lol yeah they don't care when it's late and you're going through the drive-thru bc they figure you won't come back even if something is wrong. I used to work at Wendy's when I was 18 and no one cared after 10pm lol. Orders were wrong, **** was cold, etc.
seriously...a McGangBang is delicious and only like $2
It's weird that here in the hood they didnt know what to do but in white ass New Hampshire in a McDonald on the highway...the girl knew exactly what to give me
