Don't these people know that Whitey traditionally snapped his fingers at the black help to get their attention.

[a fool in paradise]

Subversion.

“America’s history and traditions are going to have to change.”

FU MO and your socialist ‘cultural revolution’.

[a fool in paradise]

Sounds like they have obsessive-compulsive disorder. Same as the Islamists.

Fit in a tiny box, no straying from the edict.

Ooh, microaggression! Those poor young skulls full of mush.

[ScottinVA]

LMAO!!! What a show... imagine these pathetic little snowflakes dealing with the likes of Putin.

[C. Edmund Wright]

Michigan Men’s Glee Club = GAY

Those big sillies.. don’t they know how to do “up twinkles”

[Larry Lucido]

Do these kids hide under the bed during a thunderstorm?

[libertarian27]

Sounds like a chronic tic disorder - like Tourette Syndrome.

This goes way back to the Beatnick days, they were replaced in the sixties by Hippies, what goes around comes around.

Finger-snapping is what spaced-out, self-important, unemployed/unemployable beatniks used to do in coffee houses at poetry readings. You can’t get much less irrelevant than that.

[boycott]

This generation has got some very difficult times ahead of it. Snapping their fingers won’t solve the problems they will face. They’re in for a very rude awakening.

[moovova]

Tried that once with the wife...

SNAP! SNAP! “Yo, woman, get me a beer and a sammich.”

She introduced me to Mr. Frying Pan.

[Travis T. OJustice]

Thunder buddies.

[Tupelo]

Snapping fingers? If memory serves, that was the preferred way of showing appreciation for a performance in coffee shops back during the “Beatnik” days. 1958-1960 or so.

The more things change, the more things stay the same.
To quote a famous line from a famous movie: It’s Twue. It’s Twue.”

[NathanR]

LOL snigger.

[csvset]

Finger snapping? They did that way back in '61 in the film West Side Story.

[Larry Lucido]

:-)

[Larry Lucido]

I can’t snap my fingers or whistle. Which is why I’ve never been a beatnik or construction worker.
