Racist Jokes.

Ok. Racist jokes. You know 'em, ya love 'em. If you don't love them, please don't get pissed off at me for sharing them. And please stop being a prude about a fucking joke.


One of my friend Nate told me this glorious racist joke: "Wy do black people only have nightmares? Because we killed the last one with a dream." I figured my friends (who generally share the same sense of humor as I do and who SEEMED to all be open-minded about things) would appreciate the joke, so I sent out a GIANT mass text. And one of my friends (one of the last ones I'd expect it from, Destiny, of all people) gets realy offended. I'm thinking, "Dude, you aren't even black." She's like, "That joke crossed a line." I sent her a three-page text stating my opinion. Because to be honest I do get offended when people don't like racist jokes and stuff. Unless a single specific person is being verbally attacked (like a friend or yourself or whatever) don't be offended by racist jokes. That's stupid. African-Americans fought for three hndred years to be treated equally, then when they were free from slavery but still not being treated equally, they fought another few decades (the Civil Rights movement) to be treated equally. They won the right to be (finally) treated as humans, and I think part of that equal treatment includes the ability to be able to freely say racist jokes and them not be offended. It's not like they can go around making fun of us and we should feel guilty for enslaving and lynching them for hundred of years. We aren't responsible for any of that, so we shouldn't feel guilty when they joke about us. We should be able to laugh along with them, just as they should be able to laugh along with us. If we can make sexist jokes, white jokes, abortion jokes, politician jokes, gay jokes, Mexican jokes, Asian jokes, stereotype jokes, etc, why not make black jokes? They fought to be equal, so now they are (which they were born equal in the first place, but still). So they make fun of us, we make fun of them, and none of us are offended. And if we are offended, we're stupid and need to get over it. It's the 21st century, pull that stick out of your ass and calm the fuck down, lol.

Yes, it's quite obvious I find it prudish to be offended when it comes to simple jokes. But what really pissed me off was I still got yelled at via text for simply stating my opinion. Then she told me not to state my opinion, at which I got really offended (as well I should, it's my fucking constitutional right to state my opinion) and I was like, "Look, you're being a prude. If we can jokingly molest each other everytime we hang out [which we do, of course] and make dirty sex jokes and stuff, under no circumstance should you get offended by this. And I will stop texting you and talking to you altogether if I'm going to be yelled at for simply stating my opinion." I never got a response back. By the end of the night, though, it no longer affected my life, to be honest.

Basically people, it's the 21st century. We should be evolved anough by now that if we're open-minded and accepting of people, we should be open-minded enough to be able to joke about stereotypes of each other. It's not like I'm going around calling black people "niggers" and I actually find it a little racist to NOT want to tell black jokes. I feel if they fought for the right to be joked about lightly, we should be able to. Jeez. Getting offended over it is actually quite offensive to them.

Plus, I kind of hate to admit it, but my family is racist. One of our family friends call black people "niggers" without even thinking twice about it. My grandma says some of the most racist shit sometimes. The other day, she said (in reference to my aunt and uncle), "They treat me horrible, like I'm some kind of damn stupid nigger!" By saying that, you just proved your stupidity, dumbass. So being raised around shit like that and not actually having any racist thoughts like that, yes I get very fucking offended when you won't let me tell a black joke.


But anyhoodle!

I had an amazing day at the mall today. I had Taco Bell (one of my favorite fast food places EVER) and then went to Kohl's to see my Lonnie Bear, who I haven't seen in awhile and missed terribly. I ran into my friend Degan and her boyfriend Ty and talked to them for awhile (they are soooo adorable together, it's ridiculous!) and then rode bikes around Wal-Mart until the employees came after us and then I parked the bike and ran out of the store, lol. We went to Hastings and stuff, cause they're open super late and have AWESOME SHIT in general. Then we went to another Wal-Mart and terrorized people there. Then went to the Wal-Mart near my house and I ran into my Papa Bear and Vanilla Bear (Calvin and Mel) and then came home. OH and while at Hastings, I totally snagged a couple of things for my friend Cole's birthday! Happy Birthday Cole! 17 years sexy! One more year and I'm taking you clubbing! Wooooot!

Anyway. Today was a good day and made me feel better than yesterday did (because I did wake up super depressed today, bleeeghh) and helped get my mind off of DJ for a little while. Douchecanoe lookin' ass nigga.

Oh, and apparently, Ryan Dunn died? I woke up and saw that on facebook, and was like, "Who the fuck is that?" I never really watched Jack Ass (sorry, folks!) and only ever really paid attention to Johnny Knoxville (because that man is a sexy beast, I don't care what you think) so yeah. I'm sorry he died though, because it doesn't matter hoe old or young you are, or the manner in which it happened, death is always sad. Not necessarily for the person dying, as it's a relief from the pain of living, but for those around them, who love them and will live out the rest of their lives without that person. So Rest In Peace Ryan Dunn. As long as it's not Johnny Depp yet, we're all good.

But tomorrow, I'm going to the zoo with Cole, Sarah, Imani, and others and am finally going to get to go to papa Bear and Mel's. And trust me, when I get there, I'm gonna have a huge cry and then feel much better, because they are my family. And I loves them very much. <3

So good night, folks! Have naughty dreams! For me, please? ;D
