    Don't know if you're grouping me in the "lilly white dogooders" category, but I GREW UP in Flatbush. Some of my best friends were black. If that helps explain my attitude, so be it... ;)

    How about those Brooklyn Dodgers? (I used to live across the street from Ebbets Field!)

    I definately understand where you're coming from. I've seen quite a few of the accusations. I try not to take that route. I'm just one of those overly analytical people that really needs some things to be rationally explained before I can accept them. Plus, I love this place, so as soon as the words "you're not welcome" are mentioned.... I've gotta decide if the battle is worth it lol :&

    HAH! What about that time I made a thread about cross-dressing albino pygmies and you came on and told me it was "inappropriate"?

    Not only did you close my thread but my computer turned back into a rock and the keyboard I was working on turned back into a tree root!!

    (and please don't try to tell me it was because the mushrooms were wearing off because I'm getting tired of hearing that excuse from everybody about every little thing).

    LOL!

    Yes, it was inappropriate for the "African Anthropological Anomalies" forum when it clearly belonged in the "Who You Don't Want Dating Your Daughter" forum.

    And yes transmogrification of your arboreal communication devices is the standard penalty for miscategorizing threads into our 247,839,283,743 forums and subforums.

    I'm not going to do anything about it. I don't need to. And stereotypes are just that, stereotypes. The truth is a couple people do specific things and it people act as if an entire group can be categorized that way.

    Ie. Some strippers are whores, so most people assume that all strippers are easy. On the same token some Elementary teachers are whores, but society generally doesn't stereotype them as easy.

    So while stereotypes aren't born out of complete fiction they're still retarded, no matter how you plead the case.

    show me a rap video that dosent have at least three stereotypical black things in it. (and i dont mean eminem)

    show me a soap opera that dosent have 3 stereotypical housewife things in it.

    these people are being trained to act like their stereotypical peers. its easy for them to fall into suit possibly because of a genetic or mental predisposition to such things. then they get reinforced.

    And you're being trained to recognize these stereotypes as everyday occurances of not just certain individuals, but entire groups of people.

    At least three stereotypical black things. Well now, you're talking about a matter of opinion. What you consider to be a stereotypically black "thing" may be more common to the rest of us. Women shaking there asses is generally associated with rap videos, but wouldn't that be a stereotypical man thing?

    well my job actually revolves around predicting stereotypes. as a big main sports bar in the area, we have to stereotype our customers to know if we are gonna be busy or not. also what we are gonna sell more of, food or alcohol. christmas day. we were pretty slow in the kitchen all night, but the whole restaurant was elbow to elbow. the bartender was super busy. but we knew that was gonna happen because the stereotypical american eats family christmas dinner and then afterwards gets drunk. so we knew we werent gonna sell that much food, but we almost couldnt keep up with the drink demand. I call that "functional stereotyping". atually, i just made that phrase up, but it fits and without it coudnt run a successful business.

    What you describe is just seasonal marketing. But yes all marketing requires understanding trends and human behavior, as well as statistics. It's a social science. They wouldn't use the word "stereotype" because there are more technical terms used. Median, mean, average, bell curve, etc. all part of statistical analysis.

    In fact if you were looking for business funding you'd need to prepare a business plan that takes into account your target market with relevant statistics.

    sorry to get off topic...

    OH NO! Not the glow-in-the-dark wood nymphs! They're rouge code inserted via a trojan horse. I thought we'd managed to confine them to a virtual mobius strip from which they couldn't escape. Well I guess they're loose! Beware world!!!

    You better not pout, you better not cry,
    Times running out and fools gonna die,
    Santa Claus ain't fuckin' around.

    He's making a list, checkin' it twice,
    If you get him pissed you gonna get iced,
    Santa Claus ain't fuckin' around.

    He's sees you when you're sleeping,
    Some old guys are that way,
    His crew is crusin' thru your hood in an Urban-Assault-Sleigh
