Agreed.

So this is just the new "Not Racist" video thread? Alright. I like the sound of that.

I guess i'll tell you when we've hit racist.

Hey Fighter, not to be racist or anything here, but why do black people have such trouble saying ask? It always sounds like ax. That being said, some white people also say it as ax sometimes as well, but it seems like a lot of black people say it as ax. Is it just hard to pronounce or something?

Two things. Back then since most black adults had lost their teeth by the time they had children they would pronounce it ax instead of ask. It's not that it's all that hard to pronounce it's just for decades we've heard it as ax so that's how we say it.

I actually had to take vocal lessons to be able to shift out of my "black" speech. I can speak like a proper person and a stereotypical black guy. Hooray for acting classes.

So no worries that's not racist it's just the truth.

My mom must be an enigma. She has no teeth and never wears her dentures. She can speak fluently and with no lisp and eat just about anything. This includes beef jerky, hamburgers, pork chops, T-Bone Steak and chewing gum. Pretty much everyone in my family has lost teeth, and I've never seen anything like this speech issue. This includes among the black people I've met, and KC is hardly dominated by whites. It's odd to me that a speech impediment due to tooth loss can dominate a culture, but for some reason I totally believe it could happen.

Bringing it back on topic, is it possible that other mouth diseases were prevalent? I know life was a lot harder for blacks only 5 years before I was born, including health and dental care, so could there be more than just a simple loss of teeth that caused it?

I only lapse into southern drawl when I'm around other Texans. It makes them comfortable when I take their order on the phone to hear something of a phonetic mirror on the other side. A lot of them assume people who don't have the accent are either 1.) a Yankee or 2.) a gay, which is about the same thing as a Yankee from their point of view. I've heard West Texas is worse, but I've never been so I can't vouch. Central Texas is worse than North Texas; I know because I lived there for two years during which I dated a farmer's daughter. Seriously, she lived in a part of the house that had been converted from a garage. Any time you get a focal point around a big enough city you get better funded education and a comparatively more liberal community.

That said, I have a total fetish for girls with certain accents. Not Texan, apparently, but...well, I'll use Jessie as an example: she slips flawlessly between an Egyptian accent (when she's angry hehehe), a Dutch accent and, in certain company, a perfect British accent. So cute.

Fuck. Wrong thread...

I hadn't really thought of that. Thanks for the insight, yeah that sounds a lot more logical than just tooth loss. Probably a number of things with tooth loss being just on the list.

Jerk, on 09 December 2011 - 04:44 AM, said:

That does sound really cute Jerk. I've always wanted to date a girl with an accent. (I better get around to just dating though never done if before lol). Also I've always wanted to date a farmers daughter, then wake up as her father held a shotgun to my face and was all like "Get yer nigger ass outta my daughters bed 'fore I pump ya full a lead" Then I run off with just the covers around me and he shots at me into the sunrise.......

It is a very small probability, but still large enough to be relevant and significant, but African Americans suffer from Aggressive Periodontitis much more over people of fair skin complexion. Such disposition can resort to tooth loss and speech impediment if the incisors/and or canines are involved. Speech is so reliant on tooth alignment, it is difficult to adjust to radical changes, including tooth loss. Tooth loss can have a strong genetic component too. A lot of dental-related problems are localized, but sometimes they are part of a systemic disease. It depends on the symptoms and clinical presentation ultimately. If your family history isn't very good, then it's better to be pre-emptive and tackle the problem before it reaches it's pinnacle or hits full potential.

I'm so glad we have so many people who know a shitton about dental things and medical mumbo jumbo, cause I know very little. You'd think I would since my mom is a doctor and we have like two bookcases of medical books. I haven't read even one of them haha.

Thanks for the info, I will put it into my knowledge pool for later use.

I mean I know a lot of that is jargon and mumbo jumbo, but as long as you are pro-active and stay on top of your regular 6 month recall appointments and oral hygiene, I wouldn't be too worried. It's all based off of relative statistics anyway.

I'm gonna go brush me teeth right now. You've gone and made me paranoid.

Make sure you floss every day~ Don't ignore ya interproximals dawg

WTF is a interproximals....I mean I had to look up while typing that. Screw it ima google it.

the surfaces between your teeth. Everything is based of your midline philtrum (lip). Anything more towards the lip is "Mesial". Anything more further away is "distal". Distal and mesial are collectively the interproximal surfaces when pertaining to 2 teeth in contact with another on the same arch. You floss between your teeth because 33% of plaque on average is not removed from brushing alone. That's why bacteria love your interproximals dawg. You don't typically "go there". So go there tonight. And go all the way.

Huh. That's very informative Fighter, I didn't know that at all. I was just wondering lol

On the subject of black people dear GOD I wanted to kill these three guys who where at work today. I outright refused to talk to them eventually. Normally the black guys that come in (Although rare.) are actually very polite and friendly, more so than the white people who are more often than not, white trash. These guys were complete scum though.

Sexy?

MintyLimeGreen, on 09 December 2011 - 06:18 AM, said:

I sense I story, go ahead and vent.

I love me dem black women that have those sexy diastemas.

Well okay, the deli department where I work on occasion has a sandwich bar. Think Subway, but so much nicer and tons more choices. These 3 guys come up holding a loaf of french bread from the bakery. Ask me to make a sandwich. Never having heard such a request before, I ask my pretty little Latino (I'm describing her to give you guys a visual. Dunno why. Roll with it.) co-worker Sheri if I'm allowed. She says yes, but needs to ask one of the higher ups how to go about it.

The guys are pissed at this. They're being obnoxious. "We've done this before why can't you just DO IT!?" I'm already frustrated that they're yelling at me over something I have no control over. "I'm making sure I don't get fired for this is all. Hold on."

Eric (Pudgy white guy.) gives me the go ahead.

I set to work making a massive sandwich with Chipotle Sauce, BBQ Sauce, Ranch, Honey Mustard and Mayonnaise to start. Roast Beef, Pan Roasted Turkey, Salami and Bacon for the meat. Colby Jack, Provolone and French Swiss for the cheese. Lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions, jalapeno peppers, bell peppers and banana peppers.

The whole time I'm doing this all 3 of them are saying totally different things. "I want tomato." "No don't put tomato." "Put tomato." "No put pickles." "No put tomato." "Put onion." "Don't put onion." "ONION! ONION! ONION! TOMATO!" "Put more cheese on." "Don't put mayo on that side." "I want mayo on the whole thing." and so on. All at once, purposely trying to make it impossible for me to distinguish what's what.

We have Christmas decorations set up. Ornaments hanging in front of the Sandwich Bar. One of them starts headbutting them. Sheri sees and says, "Hey, please don't do that." "I'm not doing it on purpose." "Yes you are." "No the ball is hitting me I'm not hitting the ball."

Then he stops hitting it, but positions his head so the swing is still hitting his head. Every time the ball hits he screams, "STOP BALL YOU'RE GETTING ME IN TROUBLE! STOP!" finally I get so annoyed that I mumble, "What the fuck are you retards four?" but luckily none of them hear this.

Now the price becomes an issue. Extra meats and cheese cost more money. Plus they need to pay the price of the bakery bread. Oh they also added avocado so it was also extra. It's basically a $20 sandwich at this point.

They're pissed.

"NO IT SHOULD ONLY BE $7 WE'VE DONE THIS BEFORE!" and so on. Sheri explains to them that's not how it works. We have to end up calling Jake, a PIC. Jake is like, "Listen to Sheri, she knows what she's doing." At this point Sheri had taken over because I could deal with their idiocy. I was on the verge of punching one and cursing the other two out. I walked away before it escalated to that point.

"I never seen that woman before." "I've worked here for 5 years." "Never seen you before."

That goes on for a while, mostly them just being belligerent as hell and rude. Making this a much more difficult process than it needed to be.

They make us remake the ENTIRE SANDWICH so it'll be cheaper.

So after all is said and done... They ask Sheri and I for our numbers. I declined immediately and shot them a look of disgust and one of them has the nerve to call me racist for it. I almost broke at that point. So very close. Instead I said, "I already have a boyfriend and we're engaged." again, they called me racist. Sheri eventually calls Jake back and he has them escorted out.

I am so sorry you had to deal with that. Those kind of people are the assholes of not only my race, but all the people that live on this soil. Honestly that's pretty damned stupid of them. I want to go find them and punch them a few times myself. I hope you don't judge us of have a different opinion based on the actions of those dickweeds.

ON a lighter note.....you're engaged? I never would have guessed congratulations.

I think a healthy dose of sarcasm and passive-aggression could have made this situation more fun. I would be laughing the entire time thinking about how they brought their own bread, and probably would have started loading the sandwich up with jalepenos. "What? More jalepenos? Okay!" "What? No. Okay! More jalepenos!"

sept you gotta pronounce it Ja lap in ohs

Hell no. I know a couple of black guys who are probably the best people I know. You, for instance Fighter.

And thanks.

Thanks yo.

Also I guess asking you to marry me is out of the question now.

o.m.g. congrats. I didn't know. Was this recent?

@Fighta: Don't worry: She might still be into Polyandry

Our love affair has to come to an end, it seems.

And no, we've been engaged for a while. It's just easier to say, "My boyfriend." rather than, "My fiance." is all.

This video is amazingly old. I remember my friend sharing it with me back in 2000.

Well I wish you all the luck in the world with your future marriage. Oh can I come? I swear I won't mention our secret love affair.

Thanks lol

And we plan on getting married in Japan actually. Could be difficult to get there.

name the time, cause I plan on visiting Japan anyway. Got a friend over there I have neglected to write to. I better get on that actually.

It won't be for a while lol

You ain't gunna nevuh get married if you keep ignoring my pleads for a hello on skype

I flew from Texas to The Netherlands just to keep a promise to a girl. Trust me, it's possible.

congratulations on your engagement!

Wait, Rex what? But all I see is two Kurts...

Two who??

I was engaged to that farmer's daughter. Had probably the most naive and dramatic marriage proposal anyone has ever had.

I thought I posted this like an hour ago and then I got wasted and went and did something else.

I also didn't buy Jessie a diamond ring. It was her birthday, I got her a 32 GB iPod Touch and a flash drive with my entire music collection on it.

well fuck, was it a diamond-studded ipod?

I agree with Purin's statement right there.

Also I grow through crazy lengths to keep promises.

MintyLimeGreen, on 09 December 2011 - 07:15 AM, said:

Haha. About that...

I don't regret gifts I give. I keep obscure promises, unrealistic ones. I don't know. I'm kind of strung out right now. (I'm not drunk and I haven't been drinking, FYI.)

Well that makes one of us Jerk.

Although I am not vulnerable right now~

I set the bar low when making realistic promises, with cracker jack box rings, etc.

I'm the stupid one who makes completely unrealistic promises and goes through loops to keep them no matter what. Like I will buy you a limo etc.

Sex is expensive.


No, I only jest~ It is tough to go to great lengths and then find your heart in vice, wondering where you went wrong or if you have been fooled with.

I have a problem where I try my best to impress a female I like, only to find out I am not on her thoughts at all. Been single up till now, dunno how long that's gonna last, so I actually can't say sex is expensive...for me attention is expensive.

History has shown, if you have to work for that attention, it ain't worth it. So this female is either not worth your time or is damn good at covering up how she really feels.
