I played Spades with friends every day at lunch through most of my HS years. Tons of fun.

Should I let them know my family is hooked on playing “pimp guts”?

In some parts of the country you could be labeled “racist” for playing a game called Spades.

But he has a nice Camaro.

[I want the USA back]

Of course not. They hate him because he has a TV show with a normal family, in which no one trashes anyone, no one tells filthy jokes, no one has an abortion, no one promotes gay crap, etc. So they hate him and want him off the air.

Having grown up in Louisiana, I once said in a business meeting, “I like Condoleeza Rice, she calls a spade a spade.”

I’m thinking cards. Yeah I was vaguely aware that spade was a derogatory term for blacks, but didn’t make the connection to the cliche.

Until they laughed and someone told me that was a poor choice of words.

I was told that Spades and Hearts were games taught to children as an aid to learning how to play Bridge proper. I never graduated.

They don't even know how to play this race card right (pun intended).
They should have asked if he could play Bid Whist.

[DoughtyOne]

I used to play a number of card games when I was younger.

I don’t remember how to play spades any longer, and for heaven’s sake, what does that have to do with racism?

We have developed a culture that make the movie Idiocracy understated.

[VietVet876]

I the only thing I remember about a card game we played as teenagers was the Queen of Spades was referred to as the “Black Bitch”. I’m pretty sure the game wasn’t spades.

[LegendHasIt]

I’m surprised that they haven’t demanded that David Spade change his name to David Cracker, or David Honkey or something.

[Pearls Before Swine]

So Spades is ok but then Hearts is racist?

[PAR35]

Playing Spades sounds highly racist to me.
