The only cotton these people have to worry about picking is from out of an aspirin bottle.

My wife and I are the first people in our families to not pick cotton and we ain’t black.

Although my ancestry.com DNA test says I am 2% African. So if the BLM is still clinging to the demonRAT test of only one drop of blood maybe I do qualify.

Who knew this is a bad phrase? I have heard it used for 65+ years.

Someone needs to collect all the terms we cannot now use so we can cleanse the English language.

This is pitiful.

‘You‘re out of your cotton-picking mind!”

‘You‘re out of your cotton-fucking mind!

There, I fixed it.

The black antagonist took instantaneous offense to the expression. I really do not think that David Bossie thought he was saying something racist. He was just talking and telling the guy Payne was out of his mind. Then Fox came back and said so sorry we are so sorry sorry it’s not who we are bla blah.

Can’t be using jig as in ‘test jig’ - have to be ‘fixture’ ... also, dams can’t be called dikes anymore either; the list goes on.

Not a joke!

“Renig” is a valid scrabble word. It is a common misspelling of “renege,” and means to back out of a deal or a promise.

Fox needs to back out of suspending David!
