Apparently I have to explain sarcasm to you.

Sorry, that's the problem with text based communications. It's hard to tell the difference between someone pretending to be an idiot and them actually being an idiot.

I would think the comedic video link in the same post would make it clear I was joking.

I've known black people who grew up in suburbs who don't typically talk "black" lay on the inner city vibe when they are with other blacks. 

Geez, been about 40 years now.  Anyway, we had a new 2nd LT in our unit.  Don't recall from whence he came but he was a pariah amongst the cadre of black officers.  You know, because he was black and sounded white and, either he wouldn't or couldn't affect a "black" accent.

A college acquaintance was like that. I never asked, but I kinda assumed his parents didn't allow it.

Let me guess, they called him Lt Oreo…

 

I have known several folks who had that pejorative applied to them because they would not act the act.

More than usual?

I'm going to guess that they've stopped amping him up with Ritalin or whatever, and he's sleeping 12+ hours a day.

Einsteinian thought experiment;

What if Dr. Jill started heavily dosing his pudding with Ritalin, and out of nowhere Joe started speaking coherently. Imagine the brain fractures of people who went from "sharp as a tack" to "the country needs him to step down" over the span of a weekend.

Then it would still be a scandal that someone was tampering with the president’s meds. Wife or not. Even then, likely still 25th amendment time.

And the irony? Black speech patterns aren't.

Kamala explaining cloud storage.

 

 

She sounds like she's reading for one of those ads for mobile games that are really spyware.

The face off is going to be epic, Captain Gibberish versus Captain Cofeve. :D

 

Trump can actually get a coherent point across. 

Right now, with the market re-adjustment, all of our 401ks are being unburdened by what has been.
