I thought he was green.

No, that was his assistant Gwok Amolé

I thought that was Avocado’s alter ego, after he developed a drinking problem and wound up getting smashed?

Yeah, like a Dr. Jekyll type of thing.

Sometimes reading this thread and trying to understand it is like trying to put a puzzle together with pieces from a whole bunch of different puzzles. It can be hazardous to ones mental health providing their mental is healthy!

It's the lifecycle of a thread. No new news means INGO will play.

I can remember being called "honky" when I was young, but I think that term has gone out of fashion. I was always called gringo once across the border and that never changed. Terms, descriptions and how people feel about them change with the times.

They always called me “Joe” when I was in the Philippines, is in G.I. Joe.

 

[tbhausen]

Oh, %$!@ there were 14 jurors? I know that's a racist number.

I guess I need to brush up on my racism. Why is 14 a racist number? I’m a terrible racist. I don’t know anything about this stuff. Never heard of Qanon or the Proud Boys before I watched the news. Somehow I don’t think this makes me unique among white people to just go about living their lives every day.

WN cite a thing called the "14 Words."

Another systemic racist thing I’ve never heard of… Imagine that.

Its not, thankfully, a “systematic racist thing,” it’s a WN thing. It’s fine you’ve never heard of it, but for obvious reasons it’s something that I kinda have to keep tabs on.

While those that WANT to constantly be offended will make a deal out of 14, it isn't a thing by its self.
It's only a thing when combined with 88 like 1488.

 

[Hawkeye]

But there were two alternates. So why wouldn't it be 14 if that's the meaning?

I mean I gave it an honest shot. It's not like it's a mystery worth solving. But I have to admit the donut thing might make sense.

Well, shoot! I knew there was one alternate but did not know about a second.

 

[Hatin Since 87]

So if that's the case he pulled the race card....

Just another day.

INGO is like a hurricane, in the absence of any 'steering currents' conversations can drift in unexpected directions

When did we switch from WS to WN? If I interpret the abbreviations correctly, they are not interchangeable

I use them interchangeably. I see no difference. None.

 

[Tombs]

I use them interchangeably. I see no difference. None.

One believe white people are superior, flat out.
The other wants to advance white interests in a world that seeks to do everything possible to subvert it.

They're pretty different things to me.

The set of everything is a pretty big set to keep tabs on.

We shall disagree. I view Black Nationalists the same way.

 

[Tombs]

Would you be surprised I have no real negative opinion of black nationalism or white nationalism.
Everyone wants their interests served, nothing wrong with it.
