Soda Jerk Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 The white guy is always portrayed as the clumsy one too. The type that would take a basketball by the foot, punt it into the air and yell Touchdown, whilst the black guy just looks ashamed, walking away with some skinny whore. I bet the whole world would erupt if they gave the black guy the acne, the glasses and a speech impedement, made him real crap with the ladies, and wrote him into an awfully embarassing moment at the school disco, whilst the honky got ALL the tail, did some sick dance, and scored the winning goal in the big ball game. TV would probably be globally banned, and there'd be a war. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonade Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 It's just a shame that the black half of the duo is almost always symbolically castrated and never gets that 'WWHHHHOOOOOOOOOOO' moment the white guy does when he kisses the cheerleader.... Still, any scenes involving impromptu dancing or snappy comebacks are his chance to shine.American TV is so racist.Look at the black guy in California Dreams for example. All he did was say words with over-accentuated vowels (eg....... DAAAAYUM YOU LOOKIN' FIIIIIINE GIRL!") and occasionally scuttle the Mexican chick or the Chinese girl. They could never have a black guy getting with a white chick on children's TV. It would be an outrage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ca_gere Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 We all seem to be skirting around mentioning Scrubs, the really fucking obvious current show like this.The difference with Scrubs though is that they make reference to the situation and play with it. Still, they continue to portray the stereotype just like all the other shows so it's maybe even the worse offender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 JD kind of knows he's a total goober though, and embraces it. Chris in City Guys tries to be way cool, and fails hard because he doesn't realise he's a total goober. I like it that way.Still, JD and Turk have guy-love that we're probably all jealous of.

Soda Jerk Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Oh, and JD dates a black girl for a little bit too. They probably had to show that one after 9pm, so it didn't corrupt the children. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus it looks as though it was filmed on a JVC Handycam. I'll lend you it if you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Why? Because Avast updates several times a day. I really don't even need to know, but if I have to know, give me the little blue box, or even send me a postcard.Since I had to wipe my computer, Vista is now catching up on about a years worth of updates. I have new updates to install about 4 times a day, and have to constantly restart. It's a pain in the dick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ca_gere Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 When I was a kid I used to assign almost every single function in windows with a sound. Quotes from films like 'i think i'm gonna crash' for error messages and stuff like that, used to love that shit. Nowadays I can't stand even the remotest, tiniest click or ding.

Soda Jerk Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Desktop Themes were great. I'd have Homer saying "woohoo!" when opening menu's, but then a "d'oh!" on the application that was selected. And home saying "Computers can do that?" when the computer asked me a question, like saving a document. It made me feel well good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gladstone Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 I used to have that Avast antivirus malarkey and got rid of it because of the guy scaring the shit out of me whenever there was an update.I used to do a fair bit of late evening/night essay typing and the like when I was at uni. Everything's quiet, you're engrossed in your work......VIRUS DATABASE HAS BEEN UPDATEDYes, and my y-fronts have been filled. Twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
