That was the last straw 100%, you have a new username-0% New Posts. You've got obvious issues that we don't have the time nor desire to deal with on this board.

Congratulations, you will be TheMalcolmConnection's first official ban.

I always knew the mods were actually vampires. TMC isn't official until he takes his first victim.

I bet you also wear eyeliner and black fishnets.

Only on Elvira night! That's when we all gather round SGG's house and play charades, only reenacting scenes from Mistress of the Dark movies

That sig is awesome by the way

There was also the comparison to the West Side story thing. They were talking about how the Tennessee girls were cute and Rutgers ones were hard and street bc they had tattoos. The West side story reference was clearly referring to the fact of lightskinned blacks and whites vs. dark skinned blacks and being thugs, etc.

Overall if you understand how slang is interpreted now and you listen to the entire Imus broadcast from that day you can see how it is offensive.

Yeah, I agree. He called the Rutgers team "jigaboos". That's what originally caught my attention, and what angered me. Movie reference, or not, that was the racist comment, IMO. I think it is stupid how that comment has received less criticism than the other comments he made.

I thought the exact thing when I heard it. They played the clip on Sirius Saturday and that was the first time I heard the whole thing. The "nappy hoes" part was bad, but I was blown away when he said "jiggaboos." I couldn't believe my ears, honestly. I mean, it's bad enough you make one racist/offensive one, but then you come out with something as blatantly racist as "jiggaboo?!" Are you kidding me?
