Why do people disappear at this hour?

[MaestroZidane]

When I used to walk home at night, I encountered a lost dog, I was comfortable at first, until he walked towards me and saw the size he was. I swear he almost reached my chest standing on all fours, and I'm 5'10". It was a scary moment as we both stared into each others eyes, wondering who would make the first move. I decided to continue my path and he walked alongside me for the remaining two blocks. It was scary and interesting at the same time

Yeah man, I am terrified of stray dogs, I ran from some in Thailand and South America even though I dont know if they were even trying to attack me or just being friendly, I fucking hate them. It is ridiculous, I can walk through the most dangerous rough areas with full confidence but as soon as I see a stray dog I am terrified. Wish I could carry a gun.

This is what Americans (read: regularcat) think, if you replace dog with muslim

Yeah, when I lived in Cozumel there were a lot of stray dogs and it wasn't as developed as it is today. One night, at about 3AM as I was making my way home from the bar, this big-ass dog started growling and then went nuts barking and scared the shit out of me. I didn't run, but backed slowly away and went to the edge of the dirt road. The good thing is, there was an empty lot with rubble and crap in it, so I found a chunk of concrete and threw it at the dog and it ran away. We used to have regular run-ins with strays there, as they get territorial. Scary shit when you're drunk, alone and it's dark as fuck with only a few streetlights and long spaces in between.

Yeah but the only place you see stray Muslims in the streets is in NY City, and they're all cab drivers.

Alex made a funny!

The thread that was about Sepak's depression how people disappeared turned into something else. By the way, is the word is r**head considered as a racist term? Not that i'm any sort of racist, just asking.

 

[Back Door Skip]

Redhead?


The fuck?

 

[Bobby]

If you have to ask, the answer is probably yes.

 

[MaestroZidane]

That's what happens in every thread. It's always fun.

 

[chygry]

I see. I'm pretty sure that some people have used that term at least once in their lives.

Same with the term for black people, in South America they find it acceptable, same here. It's "ne*g*r" here heh and people find it perfectly acceptable, the word has also been used on national television etc.

Although during the past few years we just call them black and that's it. Me personally, i would never use that term around them, because it's offensive.

Right up until a few months ago, this was a snack in Mexico

 

[chygry]

Haha

These days everything is so damn politically correct I wouldn't be surprised if someone was offended by that word.

I'm sure that's still around. Mexico don't give a shit about political correctness. Plus those things taste great.

 

[Alex]

I don't think racist is the right word, but definitely offensive - mainly because of the context it's used.

If you were being PC about it you'd just say they have red hair.

We (offensively) call them rangas in Australia. Or chutney crutch.

 

[chygry]

I see. I feel ashamed saying this but i sometimes use that word in estonian amongst friends while we're joking around. But i would never say it to offend anyone.

 

[MaestroZidane]

Wait, you are actually refering to redheads?

I was thinking.... Nevermind.

 

[Bobby]

I had no idea he meant "redhead", I had no idea anyone would censor it.

 

[Sepak]

I was thinking....

The red people from Playa Girón, right?
