Racial Epithets
I was out on a double-date with a friend in jolly Manchester (Sinclair's, if you know it) when the flower salesman came up to us and offered us a chance to woo our respective dates with an investment in shite roses.

I respectfully declined, but this guy was not giving up and continued to push the benefits of buying a shite rose.

Hearing an unwavering "no", from me, he turned to my mate and uttered, "Now that's a Jew's smile if I ever saw one."

A Jew's smile?

Not being a Jew, I didn't know if this was a common racial assault to endure, but I decided that I would, on behalf of all Jew-kind, stand up and be counted.

"Excuse me, you can't come over here and racially abuse me just because I'm a Jew and don't want to buy your shitty flowers."

"It's a figure of speech mate"

"No, it's a racial epithet. I couldn't tell you that you had a 'Nigger's Run' and expect to get away with it."

Yes, he was a black man. And yes, that was a silly thing to say, even though I thought I was fighting for good.

Still, I didn't end up buying a rose.

In that situation I would have called him a dick
not a nigger.

yes,
there are many ways I could have better dealt with it.

we were there the other night and I saw the same guy, still selling roses, and I was reminded once again of how much of a cock-end I could be when I was younger.

Not many better, if you ask me
In one sentence you summed up precisely what what was wrong with what he'd said and pointed it out in a way guaranteed to hammer the point home.

*ripple of polite applause*

It's an interesting one though
Because you didn't actually call him a nigger, you pointed out that use of racial insults is unacceptable.

"A Jew's Smile" is not a figure of speech, it's a racial insult and he shouldn't have used it, but as soon as you introduce the word nigger into a debate, it becomes far more emotional.

I agree with al
Because he is the coolest person. Online.

Like you even know what that means
Online.

I do too.
It's when a girl steals a boys willy.

Arse.
I bet you just looked that up though.

Do you have to mash the keyboard with your face to type because you're so busy touching yourself?
( Madam Marlboro wonders if you've found her yet, Mon 15 Dec 2008, 13:42, closed)

No
I have to mash my penis with my face because I'm too busy typing.

It hurts, but it's better than nothing.

Just keep a goat under the desk
All your problems solved.
( Madam Marlboro wonders if you've found her yet, Mon 15 Dec 2008, 13:45, closed)

Goats are too fussy
I need something that's happy to be abused on a near constant basis.

Are you doing anything this afternoon?

Besides hanging around the docks looking for sailors of course.

I did have plans to fellate you
But someone just offered me the chance to drink a pint of their vomit.
( Madam Marlboro wonders if you've found her yet, Mon 15 Dec 2008, 13:53, closed)

Well it's your lucky day then isn't it
How about you combine those two pleasures by pouring vomit all over my erect penis and then sucking it all off?
