2. Wtf, Steve Martin is making racist comments??

He was one of my favorite actors. Screw him then

6. I really truly doubt that was "racist", per se.

I've been around real racism and you wouldn't believe some of the stuff that I've come across on the 'Net over the past several years.....although, we can at least agree that this comment by Martin was indeed insensitive and it's good that he apologized for it. Fair enough, I hope?

21. So you are willing to condemn him as a racist but not willing to actually look at the evidence? nt

89. nah she actually had her transparency page hidden for a couple of weeks (I think for the first time

Last edited Thu Jan 2, 2014, 05:46 PM - Edit history (1)
since she got here, it has been open every time I have ever looked until she got forced to take a break in November - that gave enough time for a few hides to drop off, but she came back without learning anything and here we go again)

hard to believe she wasn't one of the original 7, but she is going to be out of here for a while now after the 2 hides the other night. even harder to believe she is still here at all, though. I will never figure that one out.

Of course you had to chime in. Never fail.

How many times have you stormed off of DU in apparent disgust?

Now you lament being tossed out.

99. I got five. No rule against naming them:

Pretzel_Warrior, trumad, darkangel, seabeyond, cali.

I don't know who the other two are.

HA! HA!

Pretzel is being trashed by his own beloved Proglodytes, after he came here and so bravely fought on their behalf.

How's that for gratitude?

How can Steve Martin be racist? Don't they realize he grew up a poor black child?

I sure hope the new rule doesn't mean we're going to lose some of our most beloved lunatics over there.

If they all make nicey nice with each other it seriously lowers the entertainment value.

DUmmy dorkangelnumbers deserves a lot more attention than she typically gets.

She was an uneducated, unemployable, hopelessly suicidal mental patient, incapacitated by multiple incurable psychiatric maladies.

Just a matter of months later, she's finishing up her registered nurse training.

Not only that, within weeks of starting her course work she was screening six-figure job offers.

Miraculously, the intense academic work required to transition from screeching, dangerous psychopath to cool, competent professional hasn't affected her DUmp time.

In fact, thoughout this apparent reprogramming of her brain, she's spent hours and hours every day at the DUmp, picking fights and making enemies.

Come to think of it, she's continued to act like a screeching, dangerous psychopath.

Anyway, she's a role model for the other DUmpettes.

His racistisim (sic) isn't the problem here.  It's obviously his white privilege that is the problem here.  You know as well as I that a black man or, more to the point, woman would never been allowed to make that movie.

I've mentioned it before, but there is no way that "Blazing Saddles" could be made today.  Even though Richard Pryor wrote it with Mel Brooks.

And, based on the number of posts/polls/OPs she has made about drinking/drunkenness, I suspect an alcohol abuse problem.

From her posts that I've read alcohol would be the least of her problems.
