argumentum ad hominem. Personal attacks on your opponent are an admission of intellectual bankruptcy. This is why you got called a racist. It happens to me all the time in religious debates. The other person runs out of arguments, and starts with the name calling and accusations.
raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaciiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *ahem* I'm just kidding. You, my friend, are not racist. She was just clearly trying to be a b!tch and annoy you.
.....................do what i say 1. buy said girl a drink 2. spit in said drink 3. smile evily while rubbing your hands while she drinks said drink. 4. tell her you spit in said drink 5. laugh while her hands are repeatedly smacking you over and over 6..................................I don't know where this is going but I can't stop laughing .... what I would do (unless you already did) ask her when she is calm why she thinks your view is racist and then talk about it at starbucks for a bit while enjoying some chai tea lattes. your treat of course...................who knows she might have just said that cause she like ya ^.o
In my experience AP classes just miss the point of education entirely. They train you to take a test and that's it. Its why I'm retaking Calculus again in college despite the fact that I aced the class in High School. That, and all my friends who take APUSH Sophomore/Junior year had 0 life because of the class.
Yea I think opinions should be respected and that this is not worth an arguement. I also dont see how this makes you racist.
QFT, I don't remember anything from my AP classes, especially Art History, which I worked my ass off for. Granted I got 18 hours of college credit from APs, but retained nothing. As for people who play the race card, they're not using any sort of logic, just throwing out a loaded term to rile up emotions and make you look bad, despite the situation. It's a dirty tactic - which is why you should have thrown dirt in her eye
I'm willing to net there's a mathematically definable direct relationship between the number of a poster's unfunny spam jokes and his or her BMI. One of y'all more numerically inclined characters should totally try to work that out.
The race card is so easy to throw out, it just pisses me off when it's used as a last resort as opposed to the other person actually thinking of something intelligent to say. When I was on midnight shift a few years ago, we had someone like that. I was second in command so I was watching our group of workers and telling them their instructions every night. We had assigned people different duties every now and then so people didn't have to be stuck doing the same shit day after day. We had one girl taking care of the tickets. This older woman, who was VERY immature for her age, grabbed the tickets out of the other girl's hands and told her off so the girl came downstairs in tears and told me what happened. I then told our manager and I pulled the older woman aside to tell her that she isn't going to label and we have the other girl assigned to it and that she can't go ripping tickets out of people's hands and telling them off for no reason other than to be a bitch. She got upset and thought I made it up so she brought the manager over to where I was standing and told him that I wouldn't let her label and he said 'uh, yeah, I told her to tell you that' so she starts throwing out YOU'RE RACIST comments at us.....and both of us are in interracial relationships, LULZ. Just to give you an example of how lame people can be and how stupid and annoying the race card is. If I did something that was actually racist, yeah, call me out on it, but telling you that you can't do the labelling job because you decide to rip tickets out of other people's hands, try again. The funny thing is, the three people we had working on the tickets, none of them were white, lol.
I have seen the "Racist" card played on a few friends of mine by "activists" wrapped up in a shroud of self-righteousness. They ended up calling a Persian a White Supremicist, a Jewish man a Nazi, and uttered the delightful maxim "You have to be white to be racist". The irony was not lost on me at all.
