And not having to make small talk with my wife's family.
They don't speak English I don't speak thier language. They don't even speak the national language as they are an ethnic group.
They say hello and I say hello. That's it. And they don't bother me with attempts to speak English or mentioning names of football players and shit.
All good. I can't stand enforced small talk.

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

These are racist actions by people who are happy to have white peoples stuff but have to get outraged by someone wearing a "black persons" hairdo.cautious colin wrote: ↑Tue Sep 01, 2020 1:48 pmJamie_Lambo wrote: ↑Sun Aug 30, 2020 11:56 pm i thought cultural appropriation was only used when black people got angry at white people for wearing dreadlocks in their hair... its the only time ive seen people using the term and being "offended"
