It's still a screen. I listen to porn on the radio. Okay, I concede internet porn = tv. Radio porn?  Never heard of radio porn You have to listen to it in black & white, which might also be misconstrued as racist...you just can't win.

NASCAR Exactly. It's a horror show. It's like that gif in Dice's sig. It makes my nerdy skin crawl.
You are trying to draw me out.
Not going to happen, Cracker.

NASCAR has been berry berry good to me.

Ok, so my video isn't great but this is a new version of a Golden Corral commercial.
<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/XcBX5bBNyyM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Why do they have to show black folks diving out of a car because the restaurant they are going to is too expensive?
At least the last version of the commercial made it seem that they didn't want to go to some cheap place where they had to share an appetizer. (Even though at Golden Corral you're basically sharing food with everyone.)
Why does race have to always come into play. Why can't they just be friends who happen to be black that dove out of the car. I think people who view stuff like that as racist have those views themselves... otherwise they are just people who dove out, not 'poor' black people.

Exactly. Just like the Archie character getting married. Instead of it just being a person in love with another person, some people view stuff like this as politically incorrect and get all offended. It's just two people, people!
