the amusing thing was how they all fawned over the one chick that was in their club and then her boyfriend rolled through to pick her up and he's some regular looking guy. you could fill a dump truck with the amount of salt in the room when he came in.

That's another thing too. Seeing a dude lust after a chick and not do anything but awkward talk or some super creepy shit( was at a mcdonalds in anaheim during anime expo with a friend and his cousin and a whole table of dudes were hardcore staring at his cousin like they had never seen a woman before and couldn't explain the sensations in their pants) throws me off a bit. its some scary stuff.

i wonder what TCG tournaments are like.

my cousin dragged me along to one of his local Magic events w/o telling me beforehand where we were going. he thought it'd be a good idea since i used to like shit like that in middle school but i just felt totally out of place. it was weird to be the "uncool" one in their crew since i didnt play.

Or rate them by tier, ask them to say hi to the Internet, and do a 360 for the camera. :p

Also what slayven said... Its pretty obvious when you see it in action.

breathtaking doesnt even begin to describe it. i felt like i was on some sort of social experiment show like those ABC What Would You Do things.

no doubt. one of my good friends in high school was like that. at the time i couldnt figure out what she got from hanging out with them, but looking back those dudes lived for her approval and worshipped the ground she walked on. i just cant understand the mindset of that type of guy.

I've experienced this. It happened during the tail-end of my Yugioh days. I was hanging out with this one girl in college. Real nice girl, too. I'm sitting near my friends and some other people who are playing Magic/Yugioh and stuff, and then I hear one of them belt out laughing over some weird-ass joke, and that realization kicked in. feelsweirdman

Oh lawd, I laughed. I laughed even though I know I shouldn't. This reminds me...of an issue I have. So let's say you see a funny picture with the word "nigga" in it and you want to show it to a friend. If the friend isn't black (sometimes if they are) does anyone else feel awkward showing it to them? I mean, I know my friends aren't racist. I know even if they used the word I wouldn't be offended or really care. We also make racist jokes all the time but something about pictures with nigga in them...I can't tell if the reluctance is on my part of if I just want to save them the awkwardness of not knowing whether it's "ok" to laugh or not. Take this picture. I saw it, I thought it was funny, I saved it. Anytime I think of showing it to a friend I decided against it

Well for me it's sort of like for me, I don't use the n word around white people whether it be in an 'endearing' fashion or quoting a song or a chapelle joke or something, I just don't use it. Not because I don't want them saying it, but because it makes it awkward for them(because they're thinking "I can't say that"), in turn making it awkward for me. If something is funny though, I don't see any reason not to laugh, given that the context of the joke was such that I myself could laugh at.

It's one of the reasons I was reluctant to date Asian girls. The one time I did she would get so many nerds/weaboos staring at her, trying to stand near her or accidently touch her. Atleast 3 times whenever we were out. A common one was someone trying to introduce and speak to her in shitty Japanese despite her being Korean.

I really felt sorry for her.

I used to stand by the angry black man field. But for me, old people and scandinavians seem to permiate that barrier.

I look angry 90% of the day. I can't help it. I'd love to look peaceful and not ready to kick over a stroller. Only my friends know when I'm mad or not. I understand part of it is being black, but geez... I wake up and I look this way. :(

Shit, when I get mad I just start laughing - and most know that angrylaughingblackman is worse than angrylookingblackman. I've only got mad enough to go full hollow and chase down trucks twice though.

lol I did do that, but it became so fun to watch. We used to do a little trick where i'd stand near her (but not with her). After they start talking i'd suprise pop out from somewhere and either scare them or kiss her :lol

Which reminds me of something I always found strange. I recieved a lot more venom from white guys when I was with an East Asian girl then when I was with white girls.

You were poaching on their turf. White/Asian are the new power couple.

It just seemed strange. If you're with a white person, young white guys are cool with it but the older guys get pissed. When your with an Asian person, the older guys seem cool about it but the young guys get pissed.

Sometimes even black guys get pissed when they see a hot black girl with a non-black guy. One of my black friends who does not give black girls the time of day got pissed when he saw this sexy black girl with a white guy, i walked on not thinking anything of it, my friend was pissed saying dumb shit like "ahh, fuck her, i bet she does not even date black guys". This cracked me up cos i didn't understand why he cared so much.

Oh it definitely happens, I just want Mufasa to know that although some will hate on him and some will worship him as a god, many of us white fellas won't care either way. Too busy dipping my wick to worry about the next mans!

So there I was on FB, minding my business while looking at Kevin Harts' pictures when...I saw "it". "It" being the familiar two words I see/hear all too often coming from black women.

http://i.imgur.com/A2DOD.jpg[/IG]


Also [URL="http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=449059"]this [/URL]ScOULaris thread gets me thinking...is MvC the fried chicken of videogames? I keep seeing that it's a "black" thing while I always assumed everyone liked it, regardless of race![/QUOTE]

There is one point in this subject that isn't brought up enough; the fact that there are many white women who are drawn to black men. I get this impression that amongst the criticism of these black men is a misconception that they are chasing/targeting another ethnic group, a misconception that ignores the above fact. You'll find many reasons from people as to why black men, for example, date white women or light skin women, reasons ranging from attraction to personality, but I've also come across similar rhetoric from white women in why they prefer black men over others, often for similar reasons. Once you consider there is a similar psychology, regardless of whether its influenced by environment or media, and thus a mutual attraction then I think it puts a different perspective on it.

There is a video on YouTube (I'm struggling to find it at the moment) of a talk show where interracial dating is discussed and in it were white women with their black male partners speaking of their experiences with men from both races. Their point was that black men were better lovers physically and emotionally. The host then went to the audience and asked a white male to respond and he offered that he's never had any complaints from former lovers as to his performances, for example, in bed. A white woman in the audience shook her head in disapproval, and when the mic was given to her, she responded - in agreement with the couple on stage - that black men are better in bed. I imagine a few white men watching this were agitated by what they were witnessing and it reminded me of those videos of black women expressing their bewilderment of the sight of black men with white women and all that it suggested.

Lol, this conversation reminds me of that video series posted pages back about those black dudes who pretended to be some black porn star or something and had slept with middle aged women into that sort of thing
