Never wrong with peaceful protests.
It's about time the common people of U.S.A found themselves a big, pair of hairy balls.

Actually I grew up in a pretty mixed, liberal area: Ann Arbor, Michigan. Yet the stares and unease were palpable in pools. The black people who did come to the Rec center tended to stay in the gym, playing basketball or lifting weights. So we were almost always the only black kids in the pool area.

Shanadeus!!
I remember you.
I remember you.
who is he? I can forgive the odd questions you've asked before, but this is just unnecessary trolling. Look her up on wikipedia and stop doing this lame act.

Just ignore Shanadeus. I don't know what else to say.
It still amazes me that people quote it like it's an actual real person.

I've always thought Shanadeus was a joke character.
Kudos to you, what did you go for?
Were you rocking that Frederick Douglass before?

A year, DY_nasty? Hot damn, what were you rocking before?
I try to go after every month. I can deal with a mini-fro, though that's as far as it gets.

I was just getting military barbers to chop my shit down every 3 weeks for the past 11 months. I'd edge it up myself every once in a while too, but I never had any good clippers.
Got a good ole ceasar and razor edge up... I feel like a million bucks. Its crazy how much a haircut can do for you.

This is my goddamn problem and probably why my brother saved his head. Now I just make do with a small fro' and drive 45 minutes out to get it trimmed every month, and by then it get's pretty difficult to comb. To maintain a fade I'd have to do that almost twice as often.
Have you looked into Flowbee/Robocut style haircutters?

They might look silly, but they might be able to help one maintain a small fro.

You guys are overreacting.
Vacuum-hair cutters are supposed to be good at maintaining afros because they are very good at cutting through curly and/or thick hair, probably because of the strong vacuum separating the hair strands a bit more than normal hair-cutters are capable of.
It might look goofy, and be used for comedic purposes on GAF, but the product itself is solid.

I'm too young to know this but has there ever been a recorded case of a black person using a flowbee.
I try not to think that he's trolling, just ignorant and thankful for the safety of the internet. I know I was subject to all kinds of dumb questions, racist comments, and ignorant/insensitive remarks while I was getting in still.
Thanks homie *dap*

Isn't Shan a Caucasian guy from Scandinavia?
LOL
No, and that's racial stereotyping from you.
I'm quite far from being caucasian, please don't call me that.
I'm just a tad tired of being called caucasian just because I'm from a scandinavian country, that's what I meant by racial profiling.
I just overreacted to your post, my apologies.

How is that racial stereotyping? I'm sorry I thought I saw that you were in one thread.
Ok, since we all have an idea of what everyone is in this thread, what do you identify as?
I'm adopted, came to Sweden from Vietnam when I was very young and don't really consider myself to have an ethnicity. I tried to avoid revealing my ethnicity online in order to avoid labeling or racial stereotyping as much as possible but it's a futile effort as I'm instead assumed to be caucasian because of where I'm from.

Embrace your Vietnameseness!

Actually, this reminds me. A vietnamese guy I know was telling me about all the half blacks in Vietnam from when the U.S. was fighting over there.
