When you say that someone is like something, you have grouped that something, and implied that all things that are that something share the attribute which the other things are "like". In your post, you said that people were acting like they were black because they had afros and gold teeth....
so, are you racist?

Its not realy that. He mocked them in a very deragatory way that makes me feel that he insulted the blacks more than the whites there.
anyways, if you dont like those ppl just dont associate wit them, I see no real reason to get hung over by why certain ppl act the certain way if you dont need to deal with them.

using the phrase "imitating blacks" is prejudice and implies hasty generalization if not outright racism
shudup, or attack all that have similar opinions like:
Fraiser is upper class white culture. Seinfeld is New York Jewish culture. Friends is simply white culture
Yeah, thanks for that generalization too.

It's more a black gangsta thing than it is a preppy 'Friends' thing.
Balck ppl have worked hard since their emancipation to establish a culture and an identy in the united states. While many have decided blend, others have decided to stand out, and with such bravery will come mockery. It happens to everyone. Bikers, Preppies, Martial Artistist, Ravers, Goths, and yes Ganstas all have race and attitudes attatched to their images. Is that racism?
When one sees ppl that are not acting the way they should based on ones prejudicial ideas of that ppl than yeah one would feel wierd, and Pointing, laughing, and making rude comments is complete bigotry and can be labled as racist. So, take CalcII's advice.
Also, don't go to a rap concert and then act surprised that your the only white guy there
japher, what race are ravers? and whens the last time you went? to imagine i had a fellow bay area raver in my midst...

Yes, I agree with Faded G. It's time white folks stopped glomming off Black culture and returned to their roots. No more rap and hip-hop. No more R&B. No more blues (or bluesy folk Country/Western). No more Jazz. No more Gospel. No more of that black devil music called Rock n' Roll.
We must stop letting them take over our culutre, with their idioms. "Cool" is Black lingo. Do not use it. "Right on?" Another Eubonics subversion.
Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...
I am not a raver... IMO, most ravers are not black, mostly white and asian X-junkies (at least that is how all my friends who go to raves are)... see how prejudice I am! Yet, I don't go to raves and make fun of them.
cmon japher, you should go with me sometime. ill give you a lightshow with my photons.
actually youre right, there is a rampant drug use at raves, but im proud to say that i havent ever done any drugs while at a raves. Its just sad that is what everyone (the lay people, the media, the government) focus on and associate with the word rave.

[sarcasm]
You are so right. That is why I listen to Country Western, and only the older stuff before it got too much of the *Funk* stuff in it, and before Canadians were allowed to participate. The only slang I use is 'dude', and other words when I'm cussin' at the neighbors dogs for eatin my squirrel meat.
Us white folk need to be more in tuned with those things that made us the pure bread stallions that we are today... You know, things like overalls, cowboy boots, muskrat huntin', sport fishing, folk music, tractor pulls, NASCAR, and slavery. Man I miss the days when they wouldn't let them black folk participate in the PBR... That's why I bowl now.

raving is fun. You're right though. I go with my X-junkie asian druggies all the time. I've wanting to score an easy target thats too high on E to care, but If its too easy like that I'm a bit concerned.
you forgot hispanics btw. Lot of hispanic who break also raves a bit.
I've never dropped yet, and I dont plan to. Good ol' weed is good enough for me
Wiggers (as these people are known as) crack me up. You can't really attack these people, I mean, they are just doing what MTV tells them they have to do. Just mock them, and eventually they'll realize how stupid they are.
