font class="post"1b, 21b, 21When I was 10 years old I somehow learned the phrase "jerk-off" without having a clue what it meant.....used it daily while staying with my Grandmother one summer. Probably called her a "jerk-off" more than once.....then my Dad heard me use it and washed my mouth out with soap.....my excuse is I was 10 years old.

font class="post"1b, 21b, 21You miss the point entirely. This is America. We can all claim asshurtedness.
As long as nobody's ass actually hurts how about we let kids have fun enjoying the fantasy of history so they can grow old and learn that it was all a lie and then become bitter and hate the world as much as we all do. Can't a kid get a break!

can anyone seriously tell me why anytime any mention of Irish discrimination gets mentioned on this board it is poo-pooed and laughed off? I mean serious discrimination towards the irish did take place in this country and it was very real. Just because it wasnt to the levels of other forms of discrimination, doesnt mean that people didnt suffer. Not trying to make the case that it is equal to other racism and discrimination in our history and the present, just sayin'
I'd think it has something to do with the current state of things...or even, the state of things since whenever...b, 21b, 21cosigning on Slavery is a tough case.
well, I have to admit that I have to take the opinion of someone who totally ignores it on other forms of discrimination with a HUGE grain of salt. Its funny how some people on here think of themselves as some sort of authority on racism and discrimination, especially the white dudes...dudes who have never faced one iota of discrimination/racism yet seem to act like an authority or what constitutes "real" racsim and discrimination and what racism/discrimination is ok to ignore.b, 21b, 21I am fortunate, I have never really faced any discrimination, so I do not know how it feels but at the same time I do not feel like I can totally ignore it in any form(in the past or present) because the status quo or popular opinion dictates that I should only acknowledge some forms of it.
the biggest grain of salt I've ever seen is rock salt and that's like what yay big AKA you could easily gobble that shit b, 21b, 21but they got other salts i guess like a salt is technically just a acid and a base come 2gether as 1 b, 21b, 21there are people dyingb, 21we all must lend a handb, 21b, 21and nicole ritchie got hadopted by a black man on the ceiling and got way rich so that messes it all upb, 21b, 21these are all good pointsb, 21b, 21but the real question I have is:b, 21ARE YOU EVERLAST?b, 21b, 21EVERLAST b, 21IS IN EFFECTb, 21AND I COLLECT BIG CHECKSb, 21ONES FIVES TENS TWENNYSb, 21A HUNDRED GEES AND IM PULLIN HONIESb, 21b, 21adn then he got cancer or whatever

font class="post"1b, 21b, 21I don't think anyone is laughing off Irish discrimination. Shit was serious. b, 21b, 21I think the laughing off is the idea that the Irish had an equivalent experience as African Americans, Native Americans or Asian Americans in the 19th century.
Why is that every time the suffering of one group is mentioned, like the genocide of Native Americans, all the privileged white folks start crying about how hard life is for them?b, 21b, 21Why can't they wait till Saint Patrick's Day to whine about their awful life?
I didn't read the link, cause it's broke, but i remember elementary school thanksgiving. We were assigned to be either Indians or pilgrims, and I was chosen to be a pilgrim. So we had to make costumes out of paper bags and such, but I was a little confused. Why wasn't I chosen to be an Indian when in real life I was full blooded Indian. Then again the whole thing was corny, so I went along with it keeping my mouth shut. Kinda funny how I can remember this from back in 1st grade. Probably something someone of a different race wouldn't think twice about.
