Re: Trip report: fight in Internet cafe
Arguing in an internet cafe is like running in the Special Olympics.
Even if you win you're still retarded. |

I really enjoy the way that English people don't even realize how ridiculous they seem when they casually use caste-based insults.

Re: Trip report: fight in Internet cafe
I do find it difficult to avoid crude class and racial stereotyping.
I didn't mention that there were three or four black guys dressed in a kind of smart preppy hip-hop style who were in the crowd standing around the fight, and one of them held back the cafe-owner when he was about to smash the chair into the yob's head, because I feel like I can't mention their race, even though it forms part of the story - the big mix of people in this place, the craziness of the situation. I can't think of a better way to describe how they looked except "dressed in a smart hip hop, P.Diddy type style", and that in itself is stereotyping, isn't it, as if I lack the knowledge, or interest, to be able to differentiate different types of black guys, so I choose the most obvious frame of reference. |

[/ QUOTE ] Why do you think it is ridiculous out of interest? [/ QUOTE ] Here in North America everything must be PC, especially on an internet forum. For instance, if jimm's story was instead posted by FlyWF, you wouldn't be able to tell the race, gender, appearance, class, etc. of any of the characters in the story. In fact, he may have created fake profiles for each person to create a perfectly diversified and non-stereotypical crowd, just to be safe. Also, no one but the English would make responses to Fly's post like 'Wow, a successful, well dressed elderly puerto rican man was beat up by a slender clean looking asian girl while some old black women watched porn on their laptops, seems weird'. No one but the English would find anything strange about that story because only the English are so prejudiced as to judge people by appearance. |
