LMFAO! I cant stop laughing at this! It has to be from sort of video about tolerance or something. The best part: "At least you aren't REALLY Black!" BWAAAAAAAHHHHH!

Wow, that was just wrong.

Also, the only kind of perm is a bad perm. The good perm is a mythical beast like a gryphon or a sasquatch.

@BabyJane: I have to say when I get a perm my hair rocks after the first couple days are over with. It is a mass of wild and gorgeous curls that lasts for years. So now I feel I should go find that gryphon since apparently I have a magical side to me. Maybe Hogwarts will come calling.

@BabyJane: I am actually not sure (but I will guess spiral), I just ask for a perm. The last time was a few years ago and the hairdresser was really resistant to it. When I pulled down my hair from the bun I had it in, she told me I already had curly hair and thus would have to go to the extreme to make a difference (I really don't it is just wavy with slight curls). She thought it would look bad but I had already had experience with it so knew better. The first couple days though my hair does look more like ramen noodles until it settles down.

My hair is my one vanity. It makes up for a lot of my self-perceived flaws.

@Elaken: Thanks for the info, I actually sent you a PM about this as well. I think part of my problem may be that my hair is wavy, but very fine. I probably just don't have the right hair type for a perm. Your hair sounds beautiful, by the way. I'd kill for that.

Sometimes you just have to laugh or else you'll stab yourself in the eye with a bic pen.

Call me overly PC - but this just sickened me. If that damned kid used that phrase one more time, I was going to give her something to cry about.

And since when is it OK to equate being a minority to having chicken pox?

WTF indeed!

huh? I stayed with you when you had the chicken pox? Really?

Like a dead baby joke, I have to laugh at this before my head explodes.

Brain.doesn't.work...I don't get this at all. Sadly, I want to see the rest of it just so I can make some kind of sense out of it. It reminds me of those really cheesy 'shows' that come on PBS in the afternoons that have some kind of life lesson. They are usually from the 80s and chock full of every stereotype you can imagine. Though I can't wager a guess at what the 'life lesson' in this one would be.

I would like to apologize on behalf of all the white peeps who perpetrated this abomination on the world. Not that I can - but if I COULD...

Among other things I'm confused by the way they're prouncing the words "black boy" with the emphasis on boy...

@schweppes: Yes, but they don't go on to assure her that she doesn't look like a boy, just that she doesn't look Black.

If they said,"No, it's ok...you look like a Black girl" then it would make sense. Well, no it wouldn't but it would be slightly less weird.

"You're not really black."

They were all about finding those silver linings.

Where do you FIND this shit?

That's not Moss, although it does look like the actress that played young Dorothy on Golden Girls.

@Nessia: Yeah...I'm not convinced. According to Buzzfeed this came from the show Many Voices Many Visions, but that show is a multicultural public affairs program on PBS in upstate New York. So presumably they were critiquing this clip...but where did it actually come from?
