LOL!

Apparently Asians who are canadianized, are called "Bananas". yellow on the outside, white on the inside.

Genius hard hitting and up front. I use some of them words on the front on a frequent basis.

Most ironic part is I have Asian work colleagues call me a Pikey.

When we kids we used Duracell - Black bloke with ginger hair and Guiness - black bloke with white hair.

Except they drive worse cars, dress much the same and a bit more inbred, also unlike their Australian cousins theyre never known to actually ever work for a living. (We're talking at least 6 generations sitting on their arse collecting dole here ) 'The Sun' was never any use except for lining cat litter trays...

Lol, in Queensland they are often referred to as 'Bevans.' The only difference being, that Bevans are thought to have at least SOME knowledge of....Ford Escort's...Torana's...maybe even the odd VB Commodore...

And the dole.

And sadly, still illegal to shoot them.

They usually cull their own numbers by stabbings, drunk driving, and random competitions to enter into the Darwin Awards.

Natural selection is a beautiful thing.

Yeah, but they reach breeding age at 14, have a half dozen by the age of 23 under the welfare system giving them money to spend on VB, XXXX, dope and end up still beating the odds like a plague of mice.

wow the sun may have done something decent for once


and I am amazed none of you are "getting" it

id much rather be called a twinkie LOL

7. twinkie
39 up, 38 down


A specific type of menage a trois that involves DP of a Caucasian woman by two Asian men. In such a position, the men sandwich the woman in order to represent "yellow" outsides and a "white" inside, thereby resembling a twinkie.

what is going on with britain and racism lately?
first you have the whole big brother racism fiasco, then some british chick on this reality show called "shipwrecked" hoping for the return of black slavery

It's been like it for years get's a bit over politically correct sometimes.

I know the girl you mean she's a posh idiot who's lived quite a sheltered life. Whilst we're on the subject I'd ruin that Lianne girl on shipwrecked. Actually that's a bit harsh because she's a very nice person as well as hot I'd easily fall for her.

I wish I owned a copy of that issue.

Not just for some anti-Bush sentiment but the photograph makes for this to be easilly one of the most powerful covers of any newspaper in 2006


btw I'm sure most people didn't catch the Bill Clinton reference in the phrase "It's the war stupid"

Originally posted by Ian what do you say to that headline

hmm... I'd have to read the article in order to fully make up my mind.

However, from what I've understood, I'd support it because, as they say, [l]ike Celebrity Big Brother winner Shilpa Shetty, they [all] have encountered racism in this country. But they are also all BRITISH. I remember how Jackson once said an old lady had rudely treated his girlfriend because of her Chinese ancestry (even though she was born in a local hospital ). Although I feel sorry for her, I'm glad Shilpa somehow showed that this problem exists in Britain, and hopefully public awareness of the problem will make both politicians and society take it seriously, being an example for all of us who aren't British citizens.

The reason why I'm suspicious of that is because the Sun isn't exactly the most trusted newspaper in the world - I'm not British and even I know that

Anyway, for those of you having trouble with the terminology (and for those of you curious about who these kids are), here's a little "guide":

quote:

REISS WALLACE, of London, 15 when pictured, has been called �******�, from Latin niger, meaning black. He says: The most painful thing is when my friends and I are targeted by grown-ups. When you�re walking down the street and a car pulls up and a man shouts out �******� that�s hard to take. I get that and �black b*****d�. The thing to do is ignore it. But it does make you angry. MUSTAFA MIYASAR, ten, from Scotland, has been called �terrorist�, an insult which began after 9/11. He says: As well as �terrorist� and �Paki� I have been told to go back where I come from. It makes no sense to me at all and makes me feel really sad and upset. It�s a lot more fun when we can all get on with each other. I just don�t see myself as being different to anyone else. JOYTI PANESAR, 11, of Leeds, held a sign saying �Paki�, an insult towards immigrant workers who arrived from Asia in the �60s. She says: The way I see it is that we all might be different, but we are all equal. A long time ago I got bullied and two of my friends told me to stand up for myself. I became a �befriender� at my primary school and helped other children who were being bullied. I am much more independent now. I think you should talk to bullies, especially those who target people because of what they look like or where they are from. I try not to be offensive to anybody. I have experienced bullying and I don�t want anyone else to experience it. One of my Muslim friends wears a hijab, but since the attacks on London she feels very insecure because of the way people look at her. I told her �you wear it for a reason, stand up for who you are.� ALEC PRITPAL SINGH, 11, from Warwick, has been called �Towelhead�, a derogatory word aimed at anyone wearing a turban. He says: The first time I got called a name it made me so angry and disappointed. I�ve been called a �Paki� and �towelhead�. Now I want to be a journalist when I grow up and say how stupid it is to judge people on the colour of their skin. OLIVER GRANT, 15, from Manchester, held a sign saying �Yid� short for Yiddish, a language used by Jews. He says: Some of my friends have been beaten up which is very upsetting. There are a lot of stereotypes about being Jewish. But I am proud of being Jewish and mostly proud of being British. But there are some things, like the racism, which let the country down. MARY RYE, 16, from Bromley, South London, has been called �Pikey�, a term said to come from an old English word meaning to travel or from turnpike. She says: I�m not embarrassed coming from a traveller background because you are what you are, but I hate the word �Pikey�. Have you ever seen those notices saying: �No travellers allowed?� That�s aimed at people like me. You do get treated differently. I stopped going to school because I just didn�t fit in and had tutors instead. I didn�t feel comfortable there. I didn�t have many friends at school and that was because of my background. But I am proud of where I come from and it hurts when people are rude because of it. As I got older people shouted �Dirty Pikey� at me. It hurt. It will just get worse and I�m worried my background will be a problem when I want a job. ZHAO PENG, 15, from Bristol, has been called �Chinky� a racial slur to describe Chinese people. He says: I was a bit shocked when I was first called names in this country. Someone in the playground called me �Chow Mein� and I was also called �Chinky�. It was horrible. I felt really small and unwanted. But I think that Britain is still good. DEMI BUCHANAN, 13, of Birmingham, who is of mixed race, held the sign saying �Half Breed� � an insult against people half of one race and half another. She says: Sometimes mums wouldn�t let their children play with me and I think it was because of my colour. One of my friend�s mums told her that �white people should stick together�. I felt angry and upset when I heard that. ZAYNAB AHMED, 16, from London, held the sign saying �Raghead�, a variation on the �Towelhead� insult. She says: The most terrifying experience I had was when my cousin and I were going home after prayers at a mosque during Ramadan. There was a massive group of football fans and they started making comments about our headscarves. It was really intimidating. They were laughing and shouting abuse. We were really scared. The best role model I have is my mother. When she was young she had so much racism to contend with but it is really sad that it is still happening now. Since the London bombings I feel there is more hostility towards Muslims. I went to a shopping centre at the weekend and I heard girls muttering under their breath about Pakis. I hate that. I was concerned that Big Brother broadcast racist attitudes. SASHA BEESLEY, 14, of Birmingham, held up the sign saying �Spic� a shortened version of Hispanic. She says: Sometimes when I�ve been to Spain, where my mum is from, people tell me to go back there and stay there. We have people living near us from China. They are so nice but one day my friend said �Are you going to see your Chinky neighbours?� It doesn�t matter where you are from. SEAN CALLEN, 12, of Southampton, hates the insult �chav scum� � a jibe at white working class people who wear brash designer clothes. It shows white people can be victims of bigots, too. Sean says: If I was judged by the way I look and where I come from it would make me feel sad and unwanted. Lots of kids are racist to be cool and get friends. It happens in our school.

That's all that I found in the on-line version of The Sun.

That's pretty shitty, good to know those kids are taking it all in stride though. Good for them.

a lot of their parents aren't though, which just gives the no-good political correct "not in our town" ones i mentioned earlier an excuse to bitch when they do live in their own little communities

Independant always has intelligent, meaningful headlines. I laugh when I then read the headlines of the Mail / Daily Star sitting beside it!! LOL!

They should laugh it off and think of a witty comeback.

Some of it makes me laugh though as no ends of people have called me a pikey over the years it's laughable I say something in return in a diddy coy accent 'I'll tarmac your driveway for a fiver'.

Political correctness is rife in this country due to the government. This Big Brother incident is what's blown it out of the water.

Media mass panic! Terrorists, Drugs, Dangerous Dogs, now this lark give it a few months and it'll all calm down.

I bet she's got an ultra tough father though who'll unleash the wrath anyone who mess about with her when she's older especially if she's from a site.

Chavs are working class?
"Help! Help! We're being oppressed for wearing tracksuits and sneakers and hanging out at shopping malls when we should be at school!"

Life is so hard for some...

From what I've gathered a "chav" is like what we call "wiggers" here in the US. And in that case, they can all go to hell... ffs get your own culture.
