So I was poking around on my computer and I decided to make a pic kind of on a whim. I then posted this pic on my facebook page as my profile pic. Many of my friends sent me pissed messages about the image but some thought it was funny. A few even accused me of setting back the black movement. What do you think?

mutha****as shouldn't have the apostrophe, therefore it is offensive to the English language

I had no clue how influential facebook and/or internet gifs are towards the progression of the black movement. However, the fact that you have uptight friends does not surprise me. I think the picture is funny, but I don't take myself seriously and a lot of my humor could be considered degradative to all movements.

gif creator was most likely british, ironically

I'm guessing people that were offended voted for him, and people that thought it was funny either voted for McCain or are Canadian.

and people that thought it was funny either voted for McCain or are Canadian.

Or voted for the socialist party of the USA.

Or voted for the socialist party of the USA.

Yeah but there's only like nine of those people.

oddly enough many of my Canadian friends thought it was "rude"

 

[johnbryanpeters]

It would depend on the context.

are they also perpetually politically correct, or are they offended by ribald language, or easily offended by any humo(u)r at the expense of a non-white?

 

[cannondalejunky]

we'll perform an experiment...when i get home from work i'll add it to my pictures on facebook and we'll see if the same thing happens

 

[jimmydean]

I found it funny. But I voted for him and I am white, so I don't know if that matters.

I think all stereotypes are funny and I would say that was just playing up the stereotype.

People need to loosen up

then your re-education is not complete.

consult mmike.

If it was on Chris Rocks website, i would think it's funny.

If it was on some skinhead website, it wouldn't be funny.

Since I saw it randomly and didn't know the source, I assume it has good intension's and gave a slight laugh and said hell yeah.

He won the election and is on point with his transition into the white house. Why would anyone care about that gif for any reason other than poor grammar ?

 

[pnj]

I realize I'm not the smartest person around but why would it be offensive?

It's ment as a joke right?

We know that Obama probably doesn't talk like that (just a guess). That's what makes it funny. If he talked like that, he wouldn't be in the position he is (again, just guessing..)

i think the original pic got deleted, which showed a lantern in his hand.

BMXman's friends should not watch Chocolate News, everyone else should.

 

[Defenestrated]

it's obviously just a joke

your friends need to loosen up

**** I was looking for the pic of obama in the tracksuit they had, but I couldn't find it

 

[skinny mike]

soon after obama was declared the winner i decided to set "bush/cheney 2012, keep the dream alive" as my status for kicks. apparently some of my more liberal friends and relatives don't understand the concept of sarcasm so i got some angry messages from them.
