i like to make fun of stereotypes. (like the macho guy)
not a race. that's just the lowest of the low in my book.
i don't even see different colours, just people. and there are some i like and some i don't.
Damn I hope you're not a cop of anything, if you don't even see skin colour.
Next time you're out hunting a killer who's been reported as an albino, and you start pulling in black guys, its gonna LOOK pretty racist, even tho it isn't
I used to have thing where I'd be stereotypically anti french, just for laughs, and partly helped by the fact that the few french people I'd met had all been rude and arrogant to me.
Of course, when you hear of stereotypes, and then you meet a few people from that country, and it turns out they fit the stereotype, it's a lot easier to believe it.
I never truly believed all French people were rude and arrogant, just the ones I'd met, and of course, what comes across as arrogance to some might be confidence in others.
My point is, I found it easy to get laughs just by ranting about what I'd experienced, and sure, exaggerating it, however I never believed a whole nation was like the three or so french people I'd met.
After a while tho, it became old, and too easy, and a lazy path to humour, so I dropped the shtick and moved on to making fun of everything else in the world instead.
Really tho, I don't think stereotypes are such a big problem, I don't really think all indian people run a cornershop, or that all germans are angry, or all scottish people are drunk, mean, violent gingers, as I once met a blonde one.
Still, I can't leave a post this long without cramming some quality racist humour into it, despite the OP requesting none, so here goes...take it away Tim Minchin!
