  1. Let's not start by delegitimizing it by adopting a cutesy acronym. Instead, let's stick with white privilege. Next might be recognizing that taking advantage of the benefits at anothers expense is a form of racism. Lot's of next steps are available then.
  2. Folks on the left tend to be more willing to take one for the team and folks on the right are more willing to take one for themselves.
  3. Next up, most pointless emoticons in a day.
  4. No further corrections allowed. She already got an attagirl and a Queen for the Day from the other Mod.
  5. Let me work it out for you. 16 times 58 times 253 divided by 58 divided by 16 equals 253. Exactly the number of deaths you would expect if Oklahoma were California. Make sense now?
  6. I concede defeat. Sorry for the bother.
  7. Alright, you've lived in Toronto as an adult for a long time and then moved to Vancouver until now. Apparently where you have lived in those big cities there were lots of non-white folks. Now, in follow up you observed that before those enlightened times you live in mostly white only places. Now maybe I need to get out more, but I have been to Canada and while I did find a decent Pho' joint in Winnipeg and another in Vancouver but not one in Montreal it really didn't remind me of Bangkok or Jakarta or even Buenos Aires. Tell me about how multi cultural it really is and just what I missed.
  8. You are just demonstrating how vacuous you really are. You have absolutely zero, apparently, awareness about who I am or how I have lived my life. I have profile in skydiving, it would be easy as pie for anyone to pop up and call bullshit on me with my anti-racist, pro LGBTQ, pro women's rights, pro taxation to benefit all and not paying shit wages to people claims. You don't know me. You do not where I've been or how I've lived my life.
  9. In the words of Ronald Reagan: there you go again. Brent didn't claim it was a Prime Example you chose to define it as such and then offered your usual demand.
  10. Poor thing, you continue to conflate as is your natural tendency. Try hard to remind yourself that you wrote multi and I wrote Mexican. Maybe I meant multi-Mexican but who knows. The thing you need to realize is that you are now, as ever, arguing about the argument. jakee does the exact same thing which was BIGUN's original observation. It might be interesting to you but to the outer world it's just boring.
  11. You are simply a silly fellow. I lived there, yo. Guess which years and match them up to your googling skills. You are flailing. Give yourself a break. This is SC, walk away for ten minutes and show up somewhere else with your same schtick. The crowd will love you.
  12. Not at all. A bot goes only by what is typed, thought is beyond their ken. And obviously, for those tuned to the obvious, I never wrote that I thought that "Mexican is multicultural". Hence, you seem much like a bot.
  13. This is a typical of you: a knee jerk defensive reaction without a ton of thought and a demand that your correspondent go do some homework. You know damn well that I don't think "Mexican is multi-cultural". Your technique is getting old.
  14. You've spent your life in Canada and that's your multicultural credential? Maybe I should have never left East San Jose, hell, I could have been Mexican by now.
  15. The population density per square mile in California is 253. In Oklahoma it is 58. Also, maybe you can't catch it from a cousin.
  16. Agreed. Essentially they argued that they had no idea what they were there for.

    You aren't an actual country? Inquiring minds, you know. Maybe Canada ought to be throwing a lot more money at their military and health care R&D so that when pandemics happen they aren't standing in line for hand outs like Burundi. Harsh? Yes. You argue that our health care system is a joke, which it is, when your own has terrible defects. The reality is that like Scarlett O'hara, Canada relies heavily on the kindness of strangers.
  18. A double misdirection with a curlicue curve, you da' man!
  19. No apologies necessary. Really, if you are going to play here you'll need to get used to being unfair, ignoring nuance, and taking things out of context, too. Feel free to practice on me. When you get good, subject to the usual disputations here, I'll help you find someone more deserving.
  20. There is another more accurate definition that I'll leave to lippy. I'm already close to a ban thanks to you. Look, you live in your white christian enclave at the roads end. Given that you don't believe in the rest of the world why not just unplug your modem and live out your remaining day's in peace, fulfilled and reinforced by the world around you?
  21. Look at you! We haven't had anyone this excited at the arrival of their champion since jaybird swooped in to save Ron on fine day.
