I've been traveling and had to catch up over the last day and a half...

This thread went from discussing:

Jimmy Frank's alleged involvement in the rape case...
to gray hair...
to the QB race...
to Donald Sterling...
to racism...
to a fairly uncomfortable conversation about racism...
to pictures of Jameis Winston holding crab legs...

I mean...yeah. Just effing weird in here today. :unsure:

Dancing gorillas and a crying baby? Yep, they have a home here, apparently. :)

Other than the uncomfortable one about racism which I could've done without - it's been wild but interesting so why not dancing gorillas + a baby. That said, it's kinda like being at a pub where everyone is the entire pub is a part of one big conversation and while some conversations you'd rather not hear the rest of it keeps you coming back and engaged.

Most definitely.

He already got away with rape, Tallahassee should be thankful he pays for anything.

The current environment in Tallahassee and FSU makes Coach Bowden look like he was a stern disciplinarian in comparison. It's sad. If I lived in Tallahassee I would be mad as hell about it.

The dancing gorilla/baby crying gif is actually a "rustled jimmies" gif

Now that you point it out it makes sense with the jimmies/gorilla meme. That 4chan meme is so old it's actually been a while since I've seen the original gorilla images that used to be tied to it. :toast:
 
Racism is a conscious choice one makes. When my son was small a man I barely knew had come to work for my company. He needed to be in my area for a meeting and then he and I were going to travel some while I trained him. He was black and was shocked when I told him he could stay with us instead of spending money on a motel/hotel. It was a great opportunity to let my son know right away that there would be zero racism in our house. Over the years when I thought my son might be headed down that path I have tried to steer him to treating all equal. He now works at a job where he is always being complimented by how fair and equal he treats everyone. There will probably always be racism but we can make a difference. Small actions can do a lot in others lives.

^This a 1000 times. WE are the ones who change the world - every single one of us and it's our responsibility to do it right. The bad actors make it a nasty one sometimes but the good ones make people of all colors, ethnic backgrounds, religions, political persuasions etc. realize that there's good and bad in every group. Humans are the same when you really dig past the superficial distinctions. Once humanity really starts to see this and understand it we will see a much better and much more peaceful world for every single one of us.
