My husband is half black and his white grandma hates black people. We take a shot everytime she calls me 'Gal'. I got sooo drunk one thanksgiving we had to take a cab home and come back the next day to get our car. That was the night she told my MIL to have that ni***-gal wash the dishes up. Poor old lady. I did not wash the dishes. I left my plate on the table and did not scrape if off into the trash can. Then I proceeded to make everyone uncomfortable by telling white man black man jokes. The black man always wins in those jokes. I'm sure I practiced reverse racism since I reflected the racism back at the bigot, thereby becoming the 'real' racist. Like those Black Panthers at the Philly election.

I think that DU needs somebody to tell them what they sound like. It's fun sometimes, and when I can't do it anymore I'm pretty sure I'll be run off too. Banned or something. Until then, I will try to get on the ignore lists of any and all DU racists and misogynists.
