I hate the term “African-American”. I have several black friends and they all hate it more than I do. My niece is African-American though. So the term has it’s place, of course. But calling Americans “African” because they have dark skin is stupid.

I have seen polls and studies that all seem to agree on one thing - that no one, even African-Americans, agree on what to call them(selves). I’m happy to use whatever term is accepted but there’s no consensus.

I actually know some that are totally fine with their white friends calling them “n*ggas,” and others that would never even use the term themselves. There really isn’t a consensus, at least not where I’m from.

While I know some black people who are okay with being called that by close friends as well, I still would never do it because I don’t want the word to become comfortable to me.

Your Opinion on Me

Telling anyone that the way you’ve approached it is an insult, or at least immature. Like it or not, speaking as someone with Aspergers himself, when diagnosed by a total stranger–it is rude as hell.

Don’t be a dickwad just because someone’s a little odd. Unfortunately that’s just how it goes.

I agree with this… As much as Yhwx annoys me sometimes those comments were over the line.

It is rather ‘theatrical’ in its acting. Something I like about it.

They send transmissions across galaxies in star wars. And that doesn’t bother me anyway because we aren’t to that point in real life yet so we don’t know how that will work.

But they communicate with holograms over large distances so it’s reasonable to assume they can send messages in text form too. Its just not important to be featured.

Why do you always mention “dated” as a negative? Shouldn’t a film look and feel like the era it was made/set in? Makes you seem very young. Not meaning this as an insult, just wondering.
Halloween III is the only film in the franchise I like other than the original. It’s an absurd October must-watch for me.

Lol the only part about star wars (1977) that feels dated to me is the hair. Of course there are one or two shots in the film that don’t look realistic But they don’t look any worse than some of the over the top cgi you see nowadays.

Of course I guess star wars is kind of a special case…

Hey yhwx, what’s your favorite board game?

Sorry.

Me too! We’re BFFs now!

I’ve learned that people don’t like it when I say that I’ll solve the problem. I wanted to acknowledge it without saying that I’ll solve it, which would just get people more riled up, and now people still get mad at me.

And these past few weeks have had way less, with exceptions, than the what the first few did (2,000 — 2,700).

I suspect that you are addicted to posting on this forum. I suspect that you read it nonstop and feel compelled to respond to every comment in every thread.

False.

I don’t like people telling lies about me.

Prove us wrong then.
