37. "reminds me of some shit that happened in high school" In response to In response to 0
we were reading heart of darkness and it's a dense book so we read a lot of it out loud and kind of went over it (i found this very annoying).
there was this THICK little soccer chick, out-and-out white bread, and every time she came to the word "nigger" she would pause or pass it over or say "n-word," and it was brutally inconsistent/awkward.
finally the teacher is like "you can read the word, heather."
from that point on, i think she felt liberated or something because she was like "NIGGER!" with serious emphasis as she read, even where it was not warranted.
any which way, personally i avoid it but if it's a critical part of the story i will just say it. recently i told my friend, who is not black, the jordan "i don't take pictures with no niggas!" story and he got slightly offended. that was odd.
And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.
