On the subject of racism...my DH likes to use the word "Jew" as a verb. As in: "I think he's asking too much money for this, so I'm going to try and Jew him down to something lower". I get so offended when he says that. I tell him it bothers me, but he still lets it slip. He doesn't think he's racist, but when he makes comments like that, I don't know what to think.

I hate this new trend of taking pics of strangers and posting it online to "shame" them. Shit like PoW piss me off, or even posting pics of strangers you take to your own FB. Unacceptable. And it's sick that it's perfectly legal. Public domain my ass. Just because I step outside my house does not mean I consent to be photographed and I surely don't want any pics of me online like that.

Cornrows on white e people may not be racist, but Jamie Deen, son of Paula Deen, wearing brown face as a costume is. I also hate when people dress as Pocahontas for Halloween. She had a horrible life at the hands of colonists. If Disney made Anne Frank into a movie would people be as accepting?

Mmmm my mil is screaming about the confederate flag, and she was the #1 teacher in her entire state. In fact, the majority of my husband's family are highly educated, and they're up in arms as well. Southern Pride, y'all.

So I guess the black lady I work with that straightens her hair everyday is a racist too? Must be trying to look white*eyeroll*...I think if I want to wear braids or cornrows its nbd, and I'm not at all racist. People get too PC over every little thing nowadays. It's a f-ing hairstyle, sheesh. Saw tons of cornrows on white teen girls on spring break, guess there must have been a KKK convention that day.

My confession is that even though it really pisses me off when I hear racist remarks, I don't always say anything. I fucking hate it, but when I say something, "Stop being racist!" or something to that effect... I get looked at like I'm some sort of hyper-sensitive crybaby. "Jesus, I was just kidding, get a fucking sense of humor!" Well guess what I don't think it's funny. Not even a little. Just because we live in the Great White North where virtually everyone is white- that doesn't make it okay to use the N word. What really pissed me off is when my own DH made fun of a little boy's afro (not to the boy, but just to me- like I would think it was funny). A child. What. The Fuck. Yeah, I got pretty pissed off and ripped him a new one. But random racist jokes, I've stopped trying. And I'm not proud.

Dh and I recently made a new friend. We really like him. However, he recently posted on fb about how Sandy Hook was a hoax. I commented that dh is currently in New England, working with a guy who was born, raised, and still lives in Newtown. He knows some of the families. He knew some of the victims. His response? To post conspiracy theory memes showing it was a hoax, and tagging me in them.

Why is it racist for a white girl to wear cornrows? It's just a hairstyle.
