Re: I work in Fast Food. I've noticed differences between black people and white people who come through
I am not racist at all either but as a previous fast food worker I can relate.

 Quoting: Anonymity


i just love how people like to say...lemme first start with i'm not racist........are you kidding me....there isn't NOT ONE god damn person on this whole fuckin planet thats not racist.....to simply NOTE a difference from one person to another because of his skin color is DOWN RIGHT RACIST....sooooo for there to be NO racist people or EVEN ONE person who is NOT racist....there would have to be absolutely NO differences to be noted...so the MEER act of your eyes seeing the difference in skin color is RACIST...thats right....everybody in the WORLD hasss RACIST eyes
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 14088410


Well ac when you assume you make an ass out of yourself.
The reason I point out that I am not racist is to deter any racists from thinking I'm one of them just because I replied to this thread.
Your theory that if you "note someone's skin color it makes you racist" is full of bs!
I noted white people does that make me racist against them too?
When I'm outside I note the differences between cats and dogs-does that make me an animal hater?
Should I take my eyes out ac so I can't see color or know if it's a male or female near me?
Having common sense and being able to distinguish between acceptable and unacceptable behavior does NOT make you racist.
When you single out and hate an entire race because of their color-THAT makes you racist ac.
Now I do hate a group of people and I fit them all into one box together and that's assholes.
The box does not care if you are white, black, brown, yellow, or orange because it does not discriminate.
If you're an asshole then you're an asshole and I'll label you as such.
Trust me ac if I label someone and put them in that box it isn't because of their color or where they're from.

Re: I work in Fast Food. I've noticed differences between black people and white people who come through
OP is 100% spot on and unless you are white and have lived in a ghetto filled area you just won't be able to get over your white guilt. First off black people love to drive slow in front of white people I know this because I have seen them checking their rear view mirror then when they see it's a white they slow down. They also never stop at a stop sign and always and I mean always make the widest turn humanly possible around a corner. They slouch down in their car while driving and have one hand up on the wheel as if they are almost laying down in the car. They blast the loudest music that vibrates your house windows all day and night and then when they get home they start blasting in in their "crib." I've seen them sit on their porch and just stare all day while drinking 40 after 40 and their kids are left unsupervised all damn day and always play in front of my house never in front of theirs.


They can live in a neighborhood with sidewalks yet always walk down the middle of the street in groups and when you try and drive by them they stare and throw up their arms like they want to fight. Don't even get me started on them in a movie theater because they will shout at the screen and text and talk on their phones all through the movie. They also like to come in a theater where there are tons of seats available only to sit right behind you and start kicking the back of your chair like they are trying to annoy you. I've seen stuff like this time and time again and if you choose to ignore it you had better wake up QUICK!

Re: I work in Fast Food. I've noticed differences between black people and white people who come through
I have examined this subject and have found that it is not a race issue. It is an intelligence issue. Stupid people act like animals. Does not matter what race the person is. However, it works out that as a group black people are less intelligent than whites or asians. This gives the impression that it is a culture thing or race matter. Stupid people are nothing more than cavemen in modern clothes. I have lived with stupid white people and they act exactly like black people do. The parallels were frightening.

I say we give everyone in the country an IQ test. Those who score less than 85 get sterilized. Then we test every child before puberty and if they score 85 or less we neuter them.

Soon we will end this stupidity and they won't darken our lives any more with their brutish misdeeds. This will also end racism as those who remain after a generation or two will be no different than anyone else. Color will mean as much to people as fur color does to dogs.

You need stupid people to perform menial tasks of society. Clean toilets, flip burgers, assemble widgets, stack bricks to make pyramid.

The problem is that we've encouraged stupid people to over-procreate. To add to this problem, we've allowed smart people to breed with them and become enamoured with them to some degree, making them "feel" for them as if they are equal in some way.

This is the real difference between Liberals and Conservatives. How to manage the slave population.

Re: I work in Fast Food. I've noticed differences between black people and white people who come through
Back in the 80's, I had a girlfriend that worked in a fast food place. (One of the big 3). She worked the evening shift, til 1 AM. I used to go pick her up when she got off.

I can confirm the OP's story. That late, only the drive-thru stayed open. So I would sit inside and wait for her to get off her shift, as she would let me in.

A car load of blacks would pull up, do everything the OP stated.

But the guy on the grill could hear all the nonsense coming from the drive up, and would take their burgers, when done, and drop kick them across the kitchen and then rub them across the dirty floor. Same for the fries; he takes down the bug strip with dead flies on it and wipe that onto the food. You get the point. The guy was creative with how he would desecrate their food.

The more problems they gave, the more they changed their order, the more heinous it got.

I could hardly breathe when I finally went home, it was that funny.

Re: I work in Fast Food. I've noticed differences between black people and white people who come through
all this talk about likes and dislikes of food and drink reminds me of the movie Joe VS the Volcano" Where he goes to a south sea island where the inhabitants will do ANYTHING for orange soda.


Geese folks. It should not suprise us that people who's ancient ancestrial histories are in different areas of the globe would have different, hardwired preferences in food tastes.

Yea, we make fun of the differences in food preferences, but that is all we should make of it.


Peoples behavior, however, I believe is a learned trait, impressed on them by the culture they are immersed in.

The pregnant question here is what, in the culture these people are immersed in, is causing this behavior. It seems obvious that it is normal, acceptable behavior in their world.

I do not believe it is a race issue. Too many people of different races participate in theis sub culturalism. It causes us to label all the people of a race as subscribing to the odd behavior we observe, as those that follow the mainstream behavior patterns are not as noticable as someone that is loud, obnoxious, ignorant, inconsiderate, or in general troublemakeing.

I'm white and mostly not racist but I worked at a grill and soft serve ice cream parlor a few summers in a row, and I can tell you that ALL of the black people that ordered ice cream ordered a vanilla cone, and most of them pronounced it, "Banilla." I was kind of a wise ass back then and one time a black man and his two kids came to the window, and before he spoke I said, "Three small Banillas?"

Apparently, Bernard is unfamiliar with the daily insult of working for what he will not recieve, while watching his fellow citizens recieve what they did not work for. Of course, this is all acceptable to Bernard, because white America has "taken so much" from blacks. Since slavery was only ended a mere 140 years ago, we should continue to pay reparations for generations to come. I believe we have far exceeded the "40 acres and a mule" by now.

Now, this doesn't even touch the corruption of those who "game" the system although they are not entitled to do so. We all know people who claim children they've never had to increase their income, who lie to obtain free medical care even though they work at well-paying government jobs.

And then we must live with their anger, their hatred and bitterness over being handed their every comfort. Their gratitude for which is repaid by the continuous vandalization and destruction of the schools, buses and neighborhoods that we provide them, even though these neighborhoods collect ZERO local or municipal taxes to repair this damage because NO ONE works.

I'm truly sorry that you cannot see how galling this is to those of us who pay more than our fair share.

Also, you breezed over the hypcrisy I pointed out in your argument, that being your deep concern for what America has taken from blacks while you stand accused of doing the same to the Irish.


Very well put. I like it.I get confused whos who on here, i can tell who u are thoe.


First of all i work for MINIMUM wage here £6.19 an houra(a fvortune in America!! ha)the ONLY person on my street who works as its a council estate. I know all about it , Dont get me onto dole scrongers!!!!!

I am not used going on forum etc so not used to talkin to americans all i know is what i read/see. With that in mind iam getting really confused..... RACE and CLASS are different things here. Is that not the case there? Unemplyed/black? the same thing??

I never did anything to the Irish, I can only apologise for my ancestors. I do know what they did, and it wasnt just the famine.It WAS shamefull Its not to bad now is it ??(ignoring the financail crisis) ALL the power at strormont? Billions in hand outs, MPS in OUR parliment(who NEVER turn up but still get there allowance)

Please answer the class question iam eager to know.


Well, yes, I see what you're saying. In a predominantly white country, there will still be crime, but the criminals will look a lot like yourself. Therefore, it all comes down to class/socio-economic status.

In the US, we like to say that everyone has the same opportunity - hence the slogan. However, the people who tend to participate less in the system tend to fall into racial groups that are "non-white". Some would argue with me on that, but I have experienced the educational system in this country for part of my life, and it is fair to say that whites and asians are more participatory than black or hispanic, in my experience. So, people determine for themselves which class they fall into, by their ability or inability to succeed with the tools available.

We aren't "to the manor born" so much here, although that does happen. Most people scratch and claw their way up.A lot has been undertaken to give minorities a "sense of ownership" so that they'll feel more connected. I guess I'd have to say this has helped, truth be told.

But, when we came here, our parents definitely pressured us to "work harder, do better", and "nobody owed us anything". Oh, and lose the accent ASAP. We never expected America to cater to us, it was the other way 'round.

Re: I work in Fast Food. I've noticed differences between black people and white people who come through
The way it works with blacks, as I've been told, if you have a drop of black blood in you, then you're black through and through. I'm not the least bit surprised that a black, such as yourself, can't stand other blacks. Now if a black, such as yourself, can't stand other blacks, then how are white people expected to tolerate them and accept them as equals. Racial equality is a pipe dream as there's simply no way that whites and blacks, such as yourself, can be equal.
 Quoting: Magnificient


I'm biracial. Black people don't speak for me. I speak for myself. I find it ironic how you say black people follow the one-drop rule; yet, the one drop-rule was a racist system implemented to keep blacks down. I, for one, have respect for myself. A lot of blacks and whites try to lump biracial people in with black people, almost forcing them to choose a side, as if they have to disown half of themselves to fit in. This is, once again, coming from my own life experiences. I have went to predominantly white schools and predominantly black schools. In the white schools, it never even crossed my mind that I had to choose one or the other. My identity wasn't a big deal. When I went to a predominantly black school, what a tremendous difference there was. I wasn't black enough. I wasn't white enough. I felt so much pressure about who I was from these people. It was definitely a culture shock. It has definitely shaped me into who I am today. I've concluded that I am biracial. If other people want to disown part of themselves due to social indoctrination, so be it. I, for one, seem to challenge the status quo and live above complacency. It's funny, in middle school all the black kids would treat me as less than, but as I grow up black people want so badly to claim biracial people as their own.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1462976


It's complicated funny, I'm just myself. Many black people have said that I "act white". This is where it gets confusing. I was raised by my mom (who is white). My family is white. I grew up in a different way of life. So when people tell me that I act white, it just rubs me the wrong way. It's like, wellllll, I am technically half white. I came out of a white woman for crying outloud. What do you expect? I grew up in a different environment. The neighborhood that I grew up in was predominantly white, with a couple other biracial kids. When I moved, I ended up in a predominantly black school (at age 12). I never did fit in. I will admit, when I did transfer schools, those soon became some of the worst days of my life. So I get where generalizing is wrong. I never even really thought about race until I went to a black school. It was like it was a constant topic. I'm not sure if being in two different cultures was a good thing or bad thing. I guess it gave me perspective. It's just funny how people say white people are so racist. I never experienced racism once until I went to a black school.

this is pretty hilarious. i guess since your half black half white, you feel like youre being unbiased. im not sayin you arent, because youre just stating your percieved observations. but im interested in 1 thing. have you felt more white or more black your whole life?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1462976


It's complicated funny, I'm just myself. Many black people have said that I "act white". This is where it gets confusing. I was raised by my mom (who is white). My family is white. I grew up in a different way of life. So when people tell me that I act white, it just rubs me the wrong way. It's like, wellllll, I am technically half white. I came out of a white woman for crying outloud. What do you expect? I grew up in a different environment. The neighborhood that I grew up in was predominantly white, with a couple other biracial kids. When I moved, I ended up in a predominantly black school (at age 12). I never did fit in. I will admit, when I did transfer schools, those soon became some of the worst days of my life. So I get where generalizing is wrong. I never even really thought about race until I went to a black school. It was like it was a constant topic. I'm not sure if being in two different cultures was a good thing or bad thing. I guess it gave me perspective. It's just funny how people say white people are so racist. I never experienced racism once until I went to a black school.

I meant to expound upon this. America seems to be ran by the one-drop rule. It's very black and white in America. I'm already aware white people see me as either Latino (which a lot of people assume I am) or black. This goes the same for black people. Then comes the generalizations. Little do any of them know, I grew up in white culture. So they could take any of these stereotypes that have been stated on here, and put them onto me. The whole biracial thing is confusing. But I am glad that I have such a wide perspective on life, due to what I have been through.

Re: I work in Fast Food. I've noticed differences between black people and white people who come through
OP is 100% spot on and unless you are white and have lived in a ghetto filled area you just won't be able to get over your white guilt. First off black people love to drive slow in front of white people I know this because I have seen them checking their rear view mirror then when they see it's a white they slow down. They also never stop at a stop sign and always and I mean always make the widest turn humanly possible around a corner. They slouch down in their car while driving and have one hand up on the wheel as if they are almost laying down in the car. They blast the loudest music that vibrates your house windows all day and night and then when they get home they start blasting in in their "crib." I've seen them sit on their porch and just stare all day while drinking 40 after 40 and their kids are left unsupervised all damn day and always play in front of my house never in front of theirs.


They can live in a neighborhood with sidewalks yet always walk down the middle of the street in groups and when you try and drive by them they stare and throw up their arms like they want to fight. Don't even get me started on them in a movie theater because they will shout at the screen and text and talk on their phones all through the movie. They also like to come in a theater where there are tons of seats available only to sit right behind you and start kicking the back of your chair like they are trying to annoy you. I've seen stuff like this time and time again and if you choose to ignore it you had better wake up QUICK!
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 13900000


You forgot the part where they ALWAYS have to back into every damned place they park, whether it's their driveway or in a parking lot and block people from getting past for the maximum amount of time while doing so. And, how about the fact that they NEVER yeild the right of way by staying behind a park car that's on their side of the street, but force the oncoming car to either stop or play chicken while they barrel past. They don't really give a shit though cause they're all driving on a never existed or suspended license and when they get nailed by the cops they get a slap on the wrist and simply continue to do so forever.

If all of the blacks without driver's licenses were taken off the roads their wouldn't be anymore black drivers.

Dr. William Wilbanks, a criminologist at Florida International University, had to sift carefully through the data to find that in 1988 there were 9,406 cases of black-on-white rape and fewer than ten cases of white-on-black rape. [320]

Another researcher concludes that in 1989, blacks were three or four times more likely to commit rape than whites, and that black men raped white women thirty times as often as white men raped black women. [321]

As for black on white rape, each year there are thousands. Almost zero white on black rapes.

Re: I work in Fast Food. I've noticed differences between black people and white people who come through
I worked at a Mickey-d's ages ago. When being trained, everybody warned me about a mythical discontinued beverage:

The Shamrock Shake.

You see, dear readers, McDonald's only offered this in a saint party's season over a decade before and yet...

Employees warn one another about it's legacy due to the fact that indeed, certain "folks", to that day still request it with unrivaled predictable rate of demand.

I believed this was a joke, a hazing for the new guy until, wouldn't you know, I got my first black customer.

"I'll have a mc-d-lt (also discontinued) some of this, some of that and...

You be gotten any of they... Shamrock shakes?"

It was surreal. I thought I was on candid camera. "a what?" I asked.

"a shamrock shake"

This happened with the routine of old faithful. It was unreal. A decade gone product still very much in demand with a cult like following of but one demographic. The rest of us had absolutely no idea what this was. An inside joke? A code word for "hook it up".

But on my life I swear: folks were desperate for this thing, whatever it was. Often pleaded with me to axe the manager.

Ou local McDonald's had Shamrock Shakes this year. They have green mint chocolate chip ice cream in them for St. Patrick's Day. I bought some for my kids. One worker told me they were very popular.

So white people are easier to treat as a heard of sheep, whereas black don't do as expected or behave in a manner deemed 'reasonable'?

Seems a good reason to put a black man on the throne...maybe he can control them better and then the whole populace will be more docile and manipulable.

No, it's a concept you've probably never heard of called 'manners'.
