Going Out

The Park Hills Subway Wasn’t the Most Friendly Place to Be Saturday


Posted by The Editor on 22 Feb 2011 /

It may have looked like Halloween came really early in Park Hills, Missouri Saturday, but it wasn’t, just a bunch of racist dudes in little ghost costumes. For whatever reason Saturday was the day the local KKK decided to get the word out about their organization! …there also may have been a bake sale. None of those “black and white” cookies…just white ones. We’re also guessing a churro was hard to come by.

The Park Hills Police Department received numerous complaints about the KKK members handing out flyers along main street.  A spokesperson for the department said they asked the members to leave.

The members left peacefully without any arrests or trouble.

First off, as messed up as their organization may be, they should be allowed to offer up their disgusting opinion flyers, but they were apparently causing a scene so they were asked to leave. On the other hand, that photo above, taken by a KMOV viewer, is creepy as hell! Looks like the start of an 80s Halloween movie, like when someone sees a glimpse of Michael Meyers standing there, and when others look, he’s gone. The difference here being that when others would look this time, he would still be there, calling you “brother” a lot, while handing you a pamphlet with a bunch of stuff in it that only really old people say without cringing.

Don’t ya just want to start talking to them, lean in really close so you can peek in those eye-holes, and yell out “Is that you [insert guy at office you don't like's name]?!” Who’s gonna take the lead to be the cool white guy at the office next week? This guy!

St. Louis Youths, Stop Barking at People. You Look F*cking Retarded.

Its happened to us before and we’ve heard this more than a few times, so congratulations, its a pattern now St. Louis: We have retarded kids running around barking at people.

Oh we’re sorry, are you not familiar? Let us share how this usually goes…

Us: Hey! You made it.

Them: Yeah, no problems…well we got barked at, but other than that.

Us: What?

Them: We were driving down the street and some guy barked at us while waiting at a stoplight.

Us: What do you mean you were “barked at”?

Them: …we were barked at. Ruff ruff! Some guy leaded out his window and barked at us. Really weird.

The description for the barkers is always, and sadly, the same: 3 or 4 black guys in a car. Same goes for the barkees: 2 – 4 white people in a car. Settle down you alarmists out there…that’s the facts, plain and simple.

Seriously, barking at people?! What are these people thinking?

Our guess? I seems like the kids are trying to scare someone or get a rise out of their target, and frankly most of the time they probably succeed. But barking? Here’s a tip, if you want to scare someone barking’s not the way. The idea behind getting a rise out of someone is to surprise them, if you surprise them with how fucking retarded you are, that’s not really the point. If the goal is to try to get a rise out of a certain race, which is how it comes off, then congratulations, you’re a dirty racist. Good work. Way to be progressive. Fuck you. You’re not Dave Chappelle making some interesting and funny comment on race relations, you’re just making it look like everyone St. Louis is overrun by morons…which to be fair, isn’t far off, but we’re trying to keep this crap a secret and you’re blowing it.

There can’t be that many “barkers” in town, but it has to stop. This kind of shit is not helping any of the following issues with St. Louis:

1. People not wanting to visit the city.

2. The general belief that if you grew up in the city’s school district you are clinically retarded, no matter how smart you started out.

3. Lingering racial stress.

Lets get together St. Louis and stop barking at random people and while we’re at it stop giving in what “barkers” are left roaming the streets. Here’s what we did when we were barked at a few months ago: Dude walked past us on the sidewalk and we made eye contact, but before I could do the traditional head-nod of “I don’t know you, you don’t know me, but hey, hope things are going well for you.” he leans forward and barked in my face.  We didn’t even blink as he walked past. See, he didn’t realize it, but we’ve seen a black person before him and were unafraid, just like if a white guy barked in our face…same thing.

…now if a Puerto Rican barked in our face, we would have probably wet ourselves, but a black guy? Come on. That’s just silly.

Editor’s Note: DMX picture above because we think he started this some how. To be clear DMX is now a nobody filming his Behind the Music while being one of the thousands of washed up stars that found Jesus a starting a ministry. Congrats DMX, you are now in the same category as Daniel Baldwin!

Unfunny Racial Joke Ruffles Feathers at Mizzou


Posted by The Editor on 03 Mar 2010 /

The Globe Democrat is reporting on a “prank” that is giving everyone fits at Mizzou:

University of Missouri Columbia students spoke out at a Town Hall meeting Monday night after an incident at the Black Culture Center early Friday morning where someone left cotton balls on the ground in front of the building.

Oh I get it.  Because all the black kids that go to Mizzou were slaves not long ago and picked cotton!  …oh wait. Half these kids probably didn’t even get the lame joke until someone explained it to them.  Nothing is funnier than a joke that needs explanation or references events from over 100 years ago.  Hilarious.  Sure this is offensive, but its more offensive that someone thought this was going to play on some level.  This is like telling industrial revolution jokes.

University of Missouri, Columbia Police tell Globe-Democrat.com that they are investigating but at this point have no arrests.

Wait what?  We covered how this was offensive in multiple ways, but last I checked there is nothing illegal with what was done here.  We let hicks tell two guys they don’t know that they can’t get married for god sakes.  Dumb? Yup. But that’s how it works. This is America and we let people do all kinds of offensive and uncool shit all the time, which the founding fathers wanted to do because we assume George Washington was into all kinds of freaky, messed up stuff.

I don’t think civil rights are going to come in to play here because I’m not exactly confident that the Mizzou authorities are going to track down the un-funny perps:

Police said although there is no surveillance video directly in front of the center, they are reviewing other surveillance video searching for anyone carrying large amounts of cotton balls. Investigators are also working with local stores looking into recent purchases of large amounts of cotton balls.

Good thinking Serpico.  While you’re looking in to that, I’m going to go check in to the kid that recently made this for her mom:

No doubt her or her teacher were involved.

Stock Photos of White Old People Are Racist Thinks Moron

I’m not here to be that guy that tells everyone that racism doesn’t exist any more.  It totally does and seen plenty of it with my own eyes.  This however, isn’t it:

When Sonja McClendon searched for senior housing for her 87-year-old black father in St. Louis County, she spotted advertisements for housing centers that didn’t feature any black people.

“That’s offensive,” she said. “It says that’s who lives here and maybe that’s the way we want to keep it.” She kept looking until she found ads, and a skilled-care housing option, that included black people.

Maybe these people are racists, maybe they really do hate black people and they went through the trouble to actually pick out white old people for their ads, but if thats the case, bring it forward!

In case your were wondering, the actual racist lady looked through ads until she found one with a black lady in it and put her father in there.  I hope she remembered to check if there were any old people with stupid, fame-whoring daughters in the ads, because if not, you have another chance for your name in paper one more time!
