Just walked through a room full of people…with toilet paper on my shoe😠

DAMNIT!

Re: Just walked through a room full of people…with toilet paper on my shoe😠

This should cheer you up then Df.

F|b also stands for Fish in a Barrell

Ding Dong! 🤡🌎

Re: Just walked through a room full of people…with toilet paper on my shoe😠

But the fish are supposed to stay in the barrel 😠

Re: Just walked through a room full of people…with toilet paper on my shoe😠

They just spawn socks making the barrell look like it's busier but it's just the same shot fish pretending they're not dead

Ding Dong! 🤡🌎

Re: Just walked through a room full of people…with toilet paper on my shoe😠

Did they really used to keep crackers in a barrel?

Re: Just walked through a room full of people…with toilet paper on my shoe😠

What are fish crackers?

Is it a US thing?

Ding Dong! 🤡🌎

Re: Just walked through a room full of people…with toilet paper on my shoe😠

Nevermind 😂

Re: Just walked through a room full of people…with toilet paper on my shoe😠

I got the Cracker Barrel gag, I just didn't want to wonder down the tightrope of racism which would no doubt follow it somehow

Ding Dong! 🤡🌎

Re: Just walked through a room full of people…with toilet paper on my shoe😠

I've heard rumors of racism… honestly though…I just like their pancakes 😁👍

Re: Just walked through a room full of people…with toilet paper on my shoe😠

I just can't be arsed with more talk about braids around here.

FFS hit up a hairdressing forum for that shit!

As for Cracker Barrel, they make good cheese

Ding Dong! 🤡🌎

Re: Just walked through a room full of people…with toilet paper on my shoe😠

I gotta be honest…the braids thing has me stumped. I don't get it…and I've tried!

I make fun of your hairstyle…I'm bad!
I embrace and wear your hairstyle…I'm still bad?

Where does this leave the jewfro?

Re: Just walked through a room full of people…with toilet paper on my shoe😠

I don't get the hairstyle thing whatsoever.

People wearing denim telling someone that their hair isn't right.

Just fucking die please, you've done nothing worthwhile and chances are high you never will.

But by all means be offended, that there is your right to be - I'm just fucking bored of hissyfits over shit people can't comprehend and look like assholes once it has all been explained to them.

Teachers get paid to explain that shit, get a fucking refund on your student debt you idiots!

Ding Dong! 🤡🌎

Re: Just walked through a room full of people…with toilet paper on my shoe😠

That touched a nerve.. didn't it?😂

Honestly…I just want to understand it! I thought we were supposed to embrace other cultures? If my eyes enjoy a hairstyle…is my emulating it not flattery? We don't criticize people for trying exotic or otherwise ethnic food… music etc. I've never heard an argument that black people shouldn't get tattoos and tattoos were used in marking slaves as well as hot iron branding… also practiced by some black fraternities.

When I was young I had extremely long hair. I owned a billiards emporium that had an almost exclusive black clientele. The customers felt my hair looked hillbilly. One day after watching the movie Friday I decided I wanted my hair to look like Cubes did… so I shaved it all off. The next day…they called me a skinhead 😂

My point being…if people want to hate on you…they will…and THEN figure out what it is they are mad at👍

Re: Just walked through a room full of people…with toilet paper on my shoe😠

That touched a nerve.. didn't it?😂

Nah, I'm just getting fed up with a whole slew of 22 year old walking about as if they are the first to take a bite from the apple of the tree of knowledge.

They'd not be alive for the things they are hating on and won't bring anything to the table of humanity prior to their deaths and so why not just get there post haste and do us all a favour?

The cool thing is they only need to wait about 15 years to see what idiots they are today and the Internet won't let them forget and so at least there is drama in it

Read my thread, and maybe it will enlighten you a bit. From my POV it's less about appropriation, and more about having your livelihood threatened if you are not willing to conform to another person's standard of beauty.

Re: Just walked through a room full of people…with toilet paper on my shoe😠

That was the part I did understand.
The notion that anyone would be disredpected for their appearance…I find unbecoming.

It was the part where the white girl tried the braids that was confusing for me.
I honestly never knew braids were associated with an ethnic group…and I kind of like it that way. The animosity I see for people pursuing that that brings them joy I find disheartening.

I guess I liken much of this to my youth. I dig hip hop…always have.
And one of the best qualities of the movement was and has always been it's inclusiveness. Now spoiler alert…I'm white🤯 But hip hop acted as a social go between of sorts for me where race relations are concerned. I hate to think what my entertainment would consist of had the black community decided to exclude my type from the culture. I also like to believe that whites as well as Hispanics have aided in it's evolution. Sure…the black community created it…but they also shared it…and I for one am happy they did! I would certainly not like to think it was a gift now regretted.👍

Re: Just walked through a room full of people…with toilet paper on my shoe😠

Personally, I've never been about exclusion. I've always been about embracing all cultures. A lot of black folks (and other ethnic groups) get upset when they feel as though that acceptance is not extended to them. Some also believe that other groups have no business taking or copying anything that they feel intrinsically belongs to them and their people/culture.

Also, there's a double standard that many of us face - some of it was explained in the video. Hair is only a small part of the issue, but that trickles down into other areas of our lives. What's acceptable for one group, isn't always the case for the other and so on. Who gets to dictate that? There needs to be a balance and a mutual respect for cultural diversity.

I'm not sure if you know this, but I'm married to a white guy (Scandinavian). So we often pick up and emulate different aspects of each other's cultures. Often when sensitive topics such as this are discussed, people will instantly raise their hackles and get on the defensive, without really hearing the other person out first. That's also a huge part of the problem.

Instead of trying to shut the other person down (I'm speaking in general), take a moment and hear them out. You may find that you share something in common, or that you are in agreement on the issue.

Its definitely a bigger topic than one video can do justice for…and one that none of us created…but yet…one that doesn't look to have a solution either.

One lesson learned…never own people!

People from other countries could benefit from that lesson, too, especially since humans aren’t meant to be slave labor tools. It saddens me that it’s still legal to do what you’ve described in some other third world countries.

I had nearly forgotten them. I remember buying them when our son was a little guy. I'd sometimes give him a few as a snack.
