They need to learn the term "hidden gem."

illegal immigrants are stealing our air
So terms like Hidden Jem, Diamond in the rough, and overlooked masterpiece mean nothing to you?

Hidden Gem and Diamond in the Rough are much more appropriate. Overlooked masterpiece does not apply except in the loaded language that tries to justify the "classic" labeling. At the end of the day, Reasonable Doubt, Infinite, and a number of other albums were considered garbage at the time of release. If the artists didn't get hit singles that brought attention their direction (well after the fact), chances are the albums would have never been noticed.
A masterpiece is a masterpiece, regardless of whatever other successes an artist makes or doesn't. Reasonable Doubt is not a masterpiece.
its a classic. live w/ it.
Your privilege is that your kids won't be bullied in any all white school. But you now lose the privilege of being cool with black people in the hood.

lmfao just wow at that old lady crying
It started off so well too.
"I got a lot of friends that are black"
That saying!
"It's okay if you're a Mexican person...they're still white people!"
double jump
you haven't lived until a random little kid ask you "how do you make love".
I got one for Christmas but haven't had a chance to dig deep into it because of my current living situation.
the sounds are professional level.
be forwarned though that the learning curb is steep
it requires wii u like updates out of the box
and even the highest model needs a computer in order to use
also NI will try to nickel and dime you for any extra sounds or software specific vsti/vst's

Is there any bleaching involved?
so this is a thing:
briefly, someone, apparently a white guy, claims that the character Tiny Tina in Borderlands 2 is racist due to her usage of "black slang terms" like "badonkadonk". So he and a few other people have a twitter fight accusing the game writer of being racially insensitive.
So, this equality crusader is fighting racism in video games, starting, with the "sassy, crazy girl" from Borderlands 2. The idea is, who gets to call something offensive, or call people to account? I think he's testing the waters, or making a subtle point myself. I definitely don't think his charges are sincere, because they're so ridiculous.

^Reminds me of jive-talking old white lady from Airplane
I guess I should be offended, I was talking busy laughing at it
then again, we always the first niggas to complain about "what is 'acting black' all about slang talk" so why the fuck does it matter?

No, but the first class is shaving off your moustache. Easiest form of Hispanic identification.
You won't have it long.
nah, I thought it was cute even. Girl is straight up, off the chain, crazy-insane. She's the black soldier dude's lil buddy, even. So I wouldn't even see a reason to be offended, because nothing she's said was even particularly racial. She's just using slang terms, and this dude is trying to call it in as a case of 'unsanctioned Ebonics'.
Bro there was no way and she was wearing these cloth pants she walked me to my car and she started walking away in the sun it looked even better. God damn. I felt weak.why no pic ? You hate us bad eh?
saw that on game side and died laughing. some people.

Got that native blood, can't grow no respectable facial hair.
Re:BL2....I don't really find it offensive from my brief exposure to BL2. Maybe shit gets weird and offensive but I didn't see it.
'verbal blackface' is way out there. There are white people, I'm sure most of us have met a few, who are white as snow but use the lingo in a non-ironic way.

all I said was dammit fresno...
at first, my thought was that he just didn't know what racism was. Then I went back to his first tweet: "@reverendanthony Hey. I really like BL2's writing, but Tiny Tina's trope of "white girl talkin' like them urban folk!!" has got to go", seems more like he's annoyed by the character "talkin like dem urban people", and then crafted the weak race argument as an excuse because a)he thinks it's a trump card he doesn't think can be countered against. Especially since there is an undeniable racial aspect of a white cartoon character using sacred negro vernacular. Or b)he thinks he's entitled to cry racism, because he 'gets it', and he knows he's right.

Why do idiots always point out where it doesn't exist thinking they're progressive and ignore instances where it's actually a thing and denigrating?

If you assume that they actually care, then it doesn't make sense. It shouldn't be assumed they actually care about social equality and it's more likely they just want to ridicule those who point out actual racism.
If that's not the case, then it's tunnel vision. Them focusing on one small facet of life rather than paying attention to others/the bigger picture.
