FOX - Dallas County Commissioner John Wiley Price is sticking to his comments that the term “black hole,” which a colleague used, is racist. Price also says language such as “angel food cake” and “devil’s food cake” is also racially insensitive.
I guess Melanie was trying to diffuse the situation. It has apparently become a Mexican standoff. :)
Reminds me the following scene in “Eddie” with Whoopie Goldberg:
Edwina “Eddie” Franklin: Hey, Patton, pass the ball! What are you, the black hole of basketball? Come on!
Joe Sparks: (to Stacy) You going to let her call you a black ho?
Darren Taylor: Man, a HOLE.
Stacy Patton: What’s a black hole?
Polynice, Olden: A black hole is a theoretical object in space. It is so dense that matter collapses... and light itself cannot escape. (shoots his free throw)
Terry Hastings: I knew that.
You are way too funny, dude.
When my daughter was much younger she was invited to friend’s birthday party. The little girl’s mother asked my wife what kind of cake she would like since either side was a different flavor. My wife asked for a slice of ‘white cake’ and all hell broke loose. She was accused of being a racist for referring to the cake as ‘white’ and not ‘vanilla’. Needless to say, our social relationship ended immediately. I still feel bad for the kids.
