Guess I always root for the underdog. Don't like his posts, don't read 'em. Don't reply to 'em. Seems like there seems to be a bit of thin skin among the board faithfull. Puff has the pills, take a couple. 8)

Must be the Clint Eastwood Avatar..he's one of my favorites. Color me..dissapointed to say the least..course all the shrinks say I dont make friends easy..so I guess that's normal. Griff stays constipated a lot I can tell. It bound to be all the whale blubber intake. Or maybe it the old frozen toilet deal. Who knows? I'm still waiting for the poll. Let's do it. To coin a phrase used up in Utah a few years back.

For example, the "Eubonics" references in recent days (that's "Ebonics," by the way) are starting to try my patience. I don't enjoy pulling up my unread posts and finding racism and similar blanket prejudices, or ethnic slurs and similar verbal abuse. I don't think any of us -- or at least the majority of us -- want the board to be a hateful place.

Sure, Dave, you apparently weren't tuned in back in September when my irritation overstepped the bounds. Read through the first couple of pages of http://www.bbq-4-u.com/viewtopic.php?t=6154 for some examples of ethnic slurs. Racism is apparent in the "eubonics" remarks in several threads, and in the Fort Worth neighborhood comments of about a week ago in http://www.bbq-4-u.com/viewtopic.php?p=101735 . In addition, constantly identifying people by national origin, in uncomplimentary or mocking terms -- for example, I don't think most Americans of Italian descent like to be called "Eyetalians" -- seems completely unnecessary unless the intent is to belittle.DATsBBQ said:Unity said:After getting stomped for reacting in public before, I've communicated some of my concerns by PM, to Greg and to BW.

John,
Care to elaborate. You can PM is you're more comfy with that.
Thanks
Dave

A little bit of this kind of stuff in isolation can be overlooked. A steady diet of it is poisonous.

Bill The Grill Guy said:bigwheel said:Well I knew the Andouille wasnt worth a flip cuz he didn't mention it being ho made...and using Chef Folse's recipe as a base so that part was a dead giveaway. As far as Mexican Chroizo...it triggers my puke reflexes real quick and being an old S. Texas boy I have sampled way more than enough of the stuff to know I dont like it. Doubt I like it if we was assured the recipe come from Pancho Villa himself. I much rather have Owen's or Jimmy Dean with my blancillos..papas and flour taurpolians. Now maybe Santa Anna had a good version..I aint sure about that. Sides everybody know cops is much more astute than slab savers. Thats how I figgered out all this stuff. It's elementary my dear Watson..elementary

I'd have guessed that we don't see such things the same way.DATsBBQ said:John,
I just read both those posts from strart to finish. Maybe I'm just not PC enough? When I call my uncle a level headed Swede cause the snoose drips evenly from both sides of his mouth, or sing along to Cinnamon Girl or Brown Suger am I being racist? I don't think so.
More to the point, I don't fine "a billion Chinamen" to be offensive.
Can we agree not to agree on this and move on?
Bill The Grill Guy said:Well, I for one haven’t seen the first positive thing that Big Wheel has offered this forum. He continues to pick apart every post that doesn’t start in Texas. Can someone show me where he has been an asset to this forum?
Nick Prochilo said:I think that BW can, and has a lot to offer this board. His delivery just plain sucks! He has posted some recipes here that really sound great and I have 1 I'm gonna try. But does every "F" ing thing have to have Texas being better than anything else or everybody not from Texas being a yankee in it? That $hit is just put in to piss others off!
