wow dudebro, way to take one line out of my 30
not to try to push buttons, but your last post was very condescending towards both me and cameron, and makes you come off as a hateful person.

**Dudebro** · 07-23-2009, 12:06 AM

This is what I'm talking about when I said you play the victim.

No one is out to get you and no one is saying you're the racist of the site. Actually you brought this back up a few posts ago not me. I was just correcting the assumption that you got punished for no good reason. What you posted was considered offensive by the majority of the site, mods included. You got in trouble for it, end of story.

I'm really not trying to start a fight with you but I'm sick of the way you like to twist things to make others look at fault.

@Steven-Sorry but I'm not trying to be hateful, I'm just annoyed by what I read. What I quoted from you came off as condesending to native people.

**CatalystiCam** · 07-23-2009, 12:09 AM

btw, I intend no hate in that post of mine and I shouldn't have exploded. I jus REALLY wanted to get my point across...

Edit: DB's post just came up.

I have no intent in twisting things around, I'm annoyed at the fact that no one really saw my post, rather just the one word :I ...

In Cam's defense. I think the Negros thing was an honest mistake caused by trying too hard to be politically correct. Negros is more of just an outdated word than a racial slur. 50 years ago it was the same as saying African American today. I think it is just a word that isn't really used, racist or not.

And there is scientific evidence that decedents of West Africans (slaves) are often faster (sprint, jump) than Caucasians and East Africans typically have greater endurance (marathon).

Sorry I just noticed this. I thought it was explained to you in the other topic but black people did not want to be called negro, they had no choice. It was a discriminatory word and they don't want to be called that now that they have freedom to choose.

No need to apologize, if I pissed you off you have a right to tell me about it.

@Kong - trust me I know cameron didn't mean it in a hateful way. If I thought he did I wouldn't even bother talking to him. Well maybe I would but it would probably end up with this topic locked and everyone mad at me.

**CatalystiCam** · 07-23-2009, 12:20 AM

at least the whole negro thing is cleared up now...

@ also, glad I'm not in trouble and kong is 100 % right, I was confused and I apoligize.

**Dudebro** · 07-23-2009, 12:43 AM

Sorry if you guys got offended by my posts but I get heated about certain topics and this is one of them.

I like both you guys and I don't want a disagreement to come between us.

**Kugyince** · 07-23-2009, 04:28 AM

@Cam: There's a reason why the infraction you received was only temporary and not permanent. Relax.

**Slime Slayer** · 07-23-2009, 10:13 AM

and just want to add that cam didnt deserve to scrutinized about this subject a second time, he did his time, and cleary learnt his lesson.
as fire as my butt/fire water comment, like i mentioned i tried to represent both sides equally from a neutral perspective, this comment represents the genral thoughts of the whiteman.

No It isnt acceptable.Having many black friends and family, I have never hurd any of them insist that they wanna be called Negro. Black people often say The other "N" word in raps and songs as its their way of taking the word back and twisting it around just to piss rasicts off.

I dont know what show you were watching when you heard "Negro" all the time, are you sure it wasnt a old spaggetti western or somthing.

I said this before and Ill say it again, I am zero tollarence with racism as I see people as kinda the same, there are bad people and good people in all races. If your black and you annoy me Im gonna tell you straight, just as I would If you were white or asian.

But the main point Im trying to make is, If I was to hear someone use the term Negro in frount of me I would go crazy, also if a black girl come up to

But Steven, he brought it back up, The word Negro is very controversial, he will be scrutinized.

I know Cam aint a racist, I like Cam!

All Dudebro is trying to do is explain to him why he cant say things like he did in previous posts.

**laserboy1134** · 07-24-2009, 01:44 PM

As long as it doesn't happen again it's no big deal, we should just drop it.

**Neutral** · 07-26-2009, 05:56 AM

Anybody, other than me, which has a craving for salty liquorice? I usually get this craving for salty liquorice once every second year or so, and this year I got it yesterday or maybe the day before and now I can't shake it off.

Oh, and let us not forget Salmiakkikossu ofcource.

**sezthemank** · 07-26-2009, 08:16 AM

Ohh Ive never hurd of that before.
Sounds strange.

**Kugyince** · 07-26-2009, 09:23 AM

I'll get weird cravings from my childhood on the occasion. Things like sardines, limburgher, and fried spam.

**Neutral** · 07-27-2009, 01:31 AM

Haha! I might start a new group "Those how can eat salty liquorice". To join, you would have to send me a video showing you eating it.

Without the usual twitching and gasping for air.

I guess I would be rather lone, though.

Because salty liquorice is an acquired taste. Either you love it, or (for the most time) you hate it and swear on your grandmothers grave that you will never touch the vile stuff again.

**sezthemank** · 07-27-2009, 09:03 AM

So its like marmite then!

**Neutral** · 07-27-2009, 09:56 AM

It is, but in salty liquorice the flavour is created by a relatively large amount of ammonium chloride (NH4Cl, "salmiac").

But I will refrain from expressly saying that you should try it, because I don't whant to have that on my conscience.

[ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salty_liquorice"]Salty liquorice - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/ame]

The Dutch "zoute drop" not the same thing, as it contains regular salt.

**sezthemank** · 07-27-2009, 10:02 AM

Oh I have tryed that before!
Its not that bad!

**Neutral** · 07-27-2009, 03:21 PM

Sounds legit,

but have you ever tried Salmiakkikossu(salmiak-flavoured Koskenkorva)? I haven't but I plan on doing if I ever get to visit Finland.

---------- Post added at 08:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:09 PM ----------

Or did you mean that you tasted the "zoute drop", because I looked at older posts and just realised that I didn't get your reasoning.
