Try watching the episode he was referring to. It's funny.

Season 11, Episode 1 - "With apologies to Jesse Jackson"

Especially coming from a don.

Whether that's in jest or not is irrelevant as it isn't welcome here, take a hike

What?

How about reading the script, see if you understand a bit better.

[Back to the studio.]
Pat Sajak: Well let's see if you can't make everyone proud. The category is [the words appear onscreen as Vanna White gets ready to turn the letters on the board] People Who Annoy You.

Randy: Okay. [deep exhale]

Pat Sajak: As always, we give you the letters R, T, S, L, and E. [Some of the letters light up blue and Vanna turns them around: ERS] We just need three more consonants, and a vowel.

Randy: Okay I'd like a B, an N, and a G.

Pat Sajak: And a vowel?

Randy: [quickly crosses his fingers in both hands and grits his teeth] An O please.

Pat Sajak: Okay, well, looks like you're gonna get a lot of help here. [more letters light up blue and Vanna turns them around. Randy claps softly] The category is People Who Annoy You. [the letters are NGG, but no O: N_GGERS. Randy stops clapping] Audience, keep quiet, please. [one of the cameramen peeks out from behind the camera - he's black]

Randy: Uh... Well, uh...

Pat Sajak: Ten seconds, Mr. Marsh.

Randy: Iii know it but I don't think I should say it.

Pat Sajak: Five seconds, Mr. Marsh.

Randy: Oh all right uh, I'd like to solve the puzzle! [beat] *******! [the audience is stone quiet. The blacks in it are angry. Randy gets the buzzer for the wrong answer and drops his arms.] Huh? [Vanna goes to turn the last letter around - A - then walks back to her post and looks at the ground] Ohhh...

Stan: [covers his eyes] Oooo. [Sharon and Shelley are stunned]

Randy: [subdued] Oh naggers. Of course, naggers. [sheepish grin] Right.

Pat Sajak: [awkwardly] Uhh, can we cut to a... Can we cut to a- [the station goes off the air. The bar patrons are confused]

Is it on topic if one of the things that annoy us is people on the internet who can't undersand/take a joke?

As johnny said, whether as a joke or not it was a stupid post, not everyone has watched south park and understand the joke so it is hardly a defence.

33L · 10 Dec 2007 at 18:27

the joke is indirectly targeted the wrong way but no matter how you justify it the joke wasn't on the naggers really was it.

How about not expecting everyone to instantly know what and where that was from? How could someone who has not seen or know about that episode (like me) realise that it was meant as a joke? I apologize for not watching South Park and remembering every episode, it was silly of me not to :rolleyes:

Disappointing Don tbh

Apart from the pointless smaller "Enlarge Image" images the rest of the Internet doesn't annoy me. See I have this thing called Firefox and AdBlock Pluss so i don't get any annoying adverts!

<off topic>
Oh and :rolleyes:

to those people getting all upset at Moses99p. Divine' has a sig saying "All jews must be exterminated" but as soon as it comes to black people....

Welcome to being a white male the most discriminated member of society. And Southpark is funny anyway!

Nicely said. Quoted for emphasis.

P.S. I'm not African - American, so the post above me makes no sense.

He could have simply put naggers down but decided to star out the A so that it could spell something else :rolleyes:

But their seems to be a lot of casual racism on this forum anyway so I don't see things changing :mad:

On forums, the next page '>' and the page numbers are far too small to easily click.
Ads don't bother me -> adblock.

I was waiting to see any of the people moaning about the use of the word n*gger would comment on the fact my sig says that.

But then it would have had no relation to the nagger/****** joke in South Park, which was the entire point of his post :confused:

Elephant08 :P · 10 Dec 2007 at 18:31

Well not all of us know German!
