@WonderWartHog99 I have noticed something similar, but the one that struck me the most was the animated version of "The Lion King". All the heros were light colored (Simba and his father and mother), but the uncle who usurped Simba's place was darker and spoke with mannerisms that can be considered effeminate and therefore implying the uncle was gay. I have refused to watch the movie and anything by Disney ever since because, being gay, I resent having who I am depicted as evil, murderous and deceitful. Of course, the gay uncle gets his comeuppance, and Simba gets the girl in a typical hetero happy ending. [sound of gagging here]
>I resent having who I am depicted as evil, murderous and deceitful.
We'll have none of this equal opportunity nonsense!
What are WASPs?
Yes, English people are the villains, or insulted so regularly that I had about a 5 year hiatus from watching American movies after, The Pursuit of Happiness, the final straw. But Iβm back again now. Those damned English are such a threat. Iβd postulate on why, but donβt want to offend!
wasps/ Italians right
@whiskywoman oh, thanks.
WASPS: White Anglo Saxon Protestants.
@whiskywoman >wasps/ Italians right
Wrong. The slang for Italians is WOPS, meaning they tried to emigrate With Out Passport.
@WonderWartHog99 too smart like I said
@whiskywoman >too smart
(Said with a Yiddish accent) So, this should be a problem?
@WonderWartHog99 I love it nothing sexier than a smart ass
@whiskywoman Next four day trip heading west, I'll be sure to make a detour your way.
Now I'll go blush.
I use to love Boris and Natasha Russian spies in rocky and Bullwinkle
Boris: "If I drop medal?"
Fearless Leader: "You get shot"
Boris: "If I lose cargo?"
Fearless Leader: "You get shot"
Boris: "Well, at least I've got a choice!"
Little known: Boris's main catchphrase (spoken when frustrated) is "Raskolnikov!" is a reference to the novel Crime and Punishment by Dostoevsky.
Even less known: his name comes from the opera Boris Godunov.
@WonderWartHog99 wow smarty pants
@whiskywoman Smarty pants? Darling you don't know the half of it. My underwear does my taxes.

Posted by Reason-AbleI’m 54 and bored. I needed a project and decided to buy a truck and make it my project. I’ve been adding little mods to it every weekend. Any other vehicle enthusiasts in the group?

Posted by flower_nutMy mother's best friend worked for the local newspaper and decided to dress me as a leprechaun and use it for Saint Patrick's Day. I was a smiling leprechaun, whatever that was?
