Did I say four freepers would think this is genuine? My God, the count is closer to twenty!
Next up: a demand for Johnny Walker Black Label to change their name to Johnny Walker African-American Label.
Have a Guinness, my FRiend ...
I enjoy sitting with friends, drinking Guinness Stout; discussing black holes, the lack of evidence of intelligent life in the Democrat Party, and other wonders of the universe.
Thank you. I would drink much more Guinness, but I’m so niggardly that I hate paying what it costs here.
One does have to keep one’s books in the black ...
That kid is probably a teenager by now ... I wonder how he’s turning out.
Indeed! One wouldn’t want to be like the NAACP and find all the funding lost down the black hole of improvident spending.
Certainly ... if that happened, one might have to hit the blacktop looking for a job.
Or at least, I’d have to sit around in the driveway drinking a cheap substitute for Guinness ... white trash.
You think “stout” is racist? What about “porter?” After all, nearly all the porters who worked on ships and railways were black! They had better go after all the makers of “porters” as well.
I volunteer to help Samuel Smith’s get rid of their existing stock of “Taddy Porter” with the old labels!

Ya thinks that’s funny? Wait ‘til old Benjamin finds out that the “Black Irish” aren’t black. He’ll have a real problem with that.
The Black Watch will really make him paranoid.
Almost missed the ‘humor’, since this is obviously something they’d try.
Might have to invest in a /sarc tag...
Also, they have a grievance against Crayola for naming the black crayon black, they want it changed to ‘crayon of color’.
Will the NAACP also sue Bayer Aspirin for making it impossible to use their product without first picking cotton?
Absolutely true story. Two women are walking through the local Sam’s Club and spy a display of wine. One turns to the other and complains about the name of the wine in the display. She wants it changed, it “offends” her.
The wine?
Cordon Negro.
ROFLOL best comment of the day.
I looked up “stout” in the dictionary and could not find a single reference to race. This must mean that I am race blind. Perhaps some of those with more race sight than I could point out which of the 13 definitions is racial:
