It’s time I call out certain behaviors within certain groups that need to end now. I am calling out all colors of the skin spectrum today.
White women : At no point are you allowed to start a sentence with the word “Girlfriend” (pronounced “gurrl-fren”). You are also now banned from saying “Oh no you didn’t” (pronounced “di-int”). These two items are non-negotiable. This will also hopefully reduce your head bobbing and weaving as if you were actually a black woman. You're not Angela and you never had a groove to get back.
White guys : The handshake-clasp/thumb-thingy/frontward-hug thing that black guys do. It works for them. You? Not so much. Cease and desist.
Suburban kids of all races : Your days of throwing pseudo gang signs are over. Must every picture you take contain you making those stupid, upside-down Spock symbols you see in music videos? Guess what? If you actually were plopped down in the middle of the ghetto you’d be too busy trying not to shit your pants to worry about whether or not you can throw the right sign. Pay the dealer what you owe him for that dime bag, get back in your '2 Fast 2 Furious' car that daddy paid for and finish making my Sonic burger. I’m freakin’ hungry so hurry up.
Black/Latino comedians : OK, OK, we get it, but is it possible to get through a set without ripping on white people? Prove you have actual comic skills. Richard Pryor and Eddie Murphy perfected the art of ripping on whitey and we all laughed. Now you’re just recycling old jokes. Oh, and George Lopez, you have NEVER been funny. You too, Carlos Mencia.
Anyone : Can we please end all “I don’t have anything against gays/blacks…some of my best friends are gays/blacks”. If you revert to using this sentence, you DO have a problem with that specified group. We can also include this line under the same umbrella – “I don’t care if you’re black, white, purple, green…” WTF is that? How about sticking to colors that people on this planet actually ARE?! Purple and green?! We have white, we have black, we have brown and we have yellow. Yes, those aren’t true skin colors but you get the idea. I'm not Peach and you're not Burnt Siena. Crayola can only do so much.
Comedies based around family life : Hey script writers, here’s a novel idea – why not show the dad as someone who ISN’T a bumbling assclown? We get it – Dad is dumb, Mom is a genius, the kids are also smarter than Dad. Awesome! Rinse, repeat, make new pilot.
Since I’m the one making the rules, I will allow white men to have one vice. We love quoting movies. Comedies and action movies tend to be the ones we refer to most. If I have the urge to yell, in a Schwarzenegger voice “IT’S NOT A TUMOR”, bear with me. It was the one saving grace from Kindergarten Cop. Well, besides that adorable little ragamuffin who said “Boys have a penis. Girls have a vagina.”
My demands are non-negotiable. |

| Today's blog should be re-titled "The Starbucks near me closed down."....and what, no rant about how that dickhole Bud Selig suspended the game last night instead of calling it after 4 1/2 innings with PHI leading? |

| Don't leave out Chappelle. He was funny too. Him, Pryor and Murphy at their best all had a transracial sense of humor, that could make fun of anyone for the stupid shit they did and make the racism, not the person's race, the butt of the joke.. |

| Do Philly fans REALLY want to see their team win that way? What a bunch of whining assbags. Go back to booing Santa Claus. |

| Erich, for ONCE in my life I have to side with Bud. You cannot award the World Series on an abbreviated game. JA3, good point, I forgot Chappelle, an absolute genius at studies in race who skewered all sides too. For everyone, check out http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/. It's fast become one of my favorite sites and the scary thing is I LOVE most of the stuff he talks about. FYI, the writer is white. |

| I actually agree as well, my issue is more that Selig decides to bend/break the rules when it best suits the all mighty $$$. If you are going to change the rules of the game for big games like All-Star games and playoffs, then change them. Don't constantly make these special exception rules. If rain-outs can't happen in the post-season then why not play at a neutral domed stadium? (awful idea, just playing devil's advocate) |

| On deadspin.com a commenter wrote:<br>Hey Bud...<br>Why don't you move the game to Milwaukee? Or maybe somewhere in Orlando or Miami? You screwed the Astros, why don't you screw the Phillies??! |

| Please. Ban. Bud. You know this game should have been called/suspended earlier - and I don't mind play in the rain. |

| Please please James...is there any way you can get the guy at work to stop saying, "Alrighty'?! OMG (please ban that one too), he could simply say Okay, but nooooo. 'Alrighty' and he doesn't say 'then' either. |

| Amen on the dumb dad in sitcoms point. This has been going on for years and it really has become stale and annoying. I think it al started with Home Improvement, when the joke was that the dad wasn't "Father Knows Best" but a bumbling, but well meaning, idiot. Enough already. ........................................................................................................ Same for white guys being the dumb dorky white guys. Prior was hilarious when he did his white guy, but that was 1983, it's been played out. ....................................................................................................... Some day I'm gonna write a book titled "The Most Hated Man in America" and it's protagonist is going to be a white guy born in the suburbs who has to apologize his whole life for being who he is. ...................................................................................................... For the record, I was born in the city. |

| James, this semi-lucid rant had me laughing my ass off. I use that "Oh no you didn't" when referring to anyone that makes a huge fashion error as in....woman with short shirt that has her flab hanging over her jeans.....as if these assclowns didn't look in the mirror before they left the house. Good stuff! |

| From the Self-Policing Correction Department - It was actually Stella who got her groove back, not Angela, although Angela Bassett played Stella. And no, I never saw the movie. Had I seen it, I would have had to make a sequel titled "How James Got His Balls Back." |

| Trust me, the book was better. I'll have you know Erich, that quote was lifted straight from deadspin whose site DOES support the regular features like crazy- ass line breaks. <br><br><br>(just to make the point...or maybe I should > instead? ^...?) Oh - AND - the commercials on TV are the worst offenders of idiot dads/jerk ass moms stereotype... many times every hour. |
