The PM thing was a first for me in 15 years on that site, I have a feeling the dbag was drunk and got the wrong person because I've never interacted with him before and the message was a mess.

Not losing any sleep over any of it, just sayin'

Moving along.
Man, where does the day go?

My fathers side of the family came from Italy, in 1898. My father was born here in 1911 so that make me second generation born in this country. (I do have a definitely Italian sounding last name!)

Those words do not bother me, hey sticks and stones. Heck I remember during the late 50s early 60s the Untouchables were on tv. It was very common to call that shoe cops and wops and on occasion much worse, no big deal

Nope. "The" changed it to "Like" in all the other forums. OT and PRC still don't have it.

I wish I was Italian so I could know whether that would bother me or not.

I wish I was black so I'd know if the n word would bother me or not

I wish I was Jewish so I'd know whether Kike bothered me or not

I wish I was Asian, or Indian, or muslim, or anything, just to see if I would be offended,...

...but alas, I am only a middle aged white man so I have to settle for just being called a privileged, racist, Islamaphobic, homophobic, white supremacist. Woe is me.

the difference between all of your funny wiseass replies on here and the redneck moron on CF is that he was ignorant of his own ignorance, you dumasses realize that you're ignorant
