  1. God here we go again. This WET "point" is so dumb I really don't even want to have to get into it again. Go read the other thread, we're just going to rehash the same shit. Seriously ... damn near every channel that exists is specifically, and directly marketed to whites.
  2. Welcome Brian, what do you do for Wiseco ? What cars do you own ? Mods ? Pics ?
  3. I would guess thats more of a traction issue than anything else. I also doubt your getting 120 hp from headers and an exhaust on an N/A engine. OT: Welcome noob, badass setup.
  4. I'm going to have to agree here. Its a track duty car, and a damn fine one. Not that I would necessarily disagree with anything you said.
  5. I didn't know these "village people" could wield such tremendous power ... how can I join ?
  6. Without pics I can't decide, someone bust out the shoop, Im at work right now.

    What to do??

    Go to the melting pot at easton (dessert too cause its fucking tasty), followed by show of some kind. Easy, in the same place, and not terribly expensive.
  8. Your sarcasm meter may need to have its sensitivity knob adjusted. Its not detecting properly. My second statement was referring to this.

    Seriously WET sounds like some hawt shit though. Than I'd see Tim Mcgraw, or Nascar and I'd lose my bonerz. Than I'd see Carrie Underwood and I'd get my underwood back. Than it'd be a back and forth for several hours and I'd lose interest. Than I'd start a thread about it here.
  10. I bet Woody Harrelson already has one on back order.

    Why stop there ? Lets just stop teaching history altogether. Or better yet lets just whitewash it (no pun intended) so nothing bad ever happened ! Seriously BET ? I mean, I understand the argument, and I agree, if there was a WET it probably would get a bad rep for no real reason, but lets face the facts, 80% or more of TV, movies, and everything else is already aimed the white consumer anyway. Why ? Because whites are the majority. So blacks have a TV channel (on cable) that is specifically marketed towards a subset of the black community, and they have a month in the year where white kids get to learn about the heroes that saved them from inequality, long after slavery was abolished. So what ? Its only been a generation or two since blacks couldn't even drink from the same water fountain.
  12. What about the web archives ? You are finished, now they know everything !!! MWAAAHAHAHAHAHAH !!!
  13. While all modern media has a bias, those two aren't even comparable.
  14. Metacritic score of 68 out of 100. Mixed reviews so far. I was interested in this game, but I think i'll stay on forza2 till forza3 comes out. Maybe gamefly it.

    Quite a difference between a "black man" and "black gay faggot", depending on usage, but ya I agree. Though I know some pussy-hurt cunts that are very offended by what you implied about them. Being, pussy-hurt and all.

    Black Man!

    Being descriptive isn't being racist, but there is a very thin line that exists where it can quickly escalate to racist, or be confused as racist. For instance ... I am asian, I was near some folks in an elevator, with a fellow telling an amusing anecdote to a friend. I wasn't really listening but "overhearing" the conversation. He was complaining about *whatever* and got to the line "stupid chinese fella couldn't even talk". Theres a couple different ways to view this, my initial reaction was to be annoyed, than to analyze. What do you mean "Stupid Chinese" ? Is he just a stupid guy, that happens to be chinese ? Being descriptive like that shouldn't offend me, or anyone besides the stupid. However is he stupid because he's chinese ? Thats how easy something can be confused. Also is his english so poor ? I agree immigrants that come into the country legally (as my father did) should try to learn the language of the land (as my father did). Though even after 30 years of speaking english, his is not comparable to my own, as would be expected of anyone besides a native, or a linguist. Even with my fathers decent overall communication skills, I would bet $1000.00 that someone has said "Stupid chinaman can't talk no good" in reference to him before. Also you can joke with friends in ways you can't with strangers. In a crowd of people I would never yell out something like "I hate white people, and no, I'm not doing any math homework for you !", but amongst friends that would be a pretty innocuous remark. In the end I choose to judge by intent, and not by words specifically. In your specific case I would say the only folks to be likely offended, would be the homosexual. I consider myself a very tolerant, accepting person, but even in my case, I slip out a little "thats gay", or "what a douche-fag, ass-pounding, aids-spreading, reach-around artist" remark, almost without thinking about how offensive that would be to a gay person. In this case that immediately makes me a huge hypocrite, and I will try to make myself a better human being from here on.
