(8,747 posts)It is funny as hell, but that is just me.
I find it funny, because part of it applies to me, in that I wear shorts nearly year round. Being "weight challenged" I find the extra insulation requires extra cooling.
It is interesting how black speech toward whites has evolved over the years. I remember the days of "honky" back during the 60s/70s. With pale white skin and flaming red hair, I was called "red-headed peckerwood", or just peckerwood. It never really offended me, because I loved Richard Pryor and Red Foxx, and had all their albums. I miss Richard Pryor, and still think of him as the funniest comic of all time.
All in all, I think I would rather be called wypipo than honky.
BUT, having said all that, just how many more threads do you plan to start on this topic?
