is it self explanatory? someone is white and acts like trash? and why do white people call themselves that? people always pass judgment when black people say "*****" but why is it okay for white people to call themselves "white trash"

What doctors say, and what they're really thinking:

"This should be taken care of right away."
I'd planned a trip to Hawaii next month but this is so easy and profitable that I want to fix it before it cures itself.

"Welllllll, what have we here...?"
He has no idea and is hoping you'll give him a clue.

"Let me check your medical history."
I want to see if you've paid your last bill before spending any more time with you.

"Why don't we make another appointment later in the week."
I'm playing golf this afternoon, and this a waste of time.
--or--
I need the bucks, so I'm charging you for another office visit.

"We have some good news and some bad news."
The good news is, I'm going to buy that new BMW. The bad news is, you're going to pay for it.

"Let's see how it develops."
Maybe in a few days it will grow into something that can be cured.

"Let me schedule you for some tests."
I have a forty percent interest in the lab.

"I'd like to have my associate look at you."
He's going through a messy divorce and owes me a bundle.

"I'd like to prescribe a new drug."
I'm writing a paper and would like to use you for a guinea pig.

"If it doesn't clear up in a week, give me a call."
I don't know what it is. Maybe it will go away by itself.

"That's quite a nasty looking wound."
I think I'm going to throw up.

"This may smart a little."
Last week two patients bit off their tongues.

"Well, we're not feeling so well today, are we...?"
I'm stalling for time. Who are you and why are you here?

"This should fix you up."
The drug company slipped me some big bucks to prescribe this stuff.

"Everything seems to be normal."
Rats! I guess I can't buy that new beach condo after all.

"I'd like to run some more tests."
I can't figure out what's wrong. Maybe the kid in the lab can solve this one.

"Do you suppose all this stress could be affecting your nerves?"
You're crazier'n an outhouse rat. Now, if I can only find a shrink who'll split fees with me ...

"There is a lot of that going around."
My God, that's the third one this week. I'd better learn something about this.

"If those symptoms persist, call for an appointment."
I've never heard of anything so disgusting. Thank God I'm off next week.

Aren't there any pen pal sites that are just that? Don't want one for dating, I am semi retired, and bored out of my mind. I just want to find a few people my age, simular interests, etc. just to write to. Do you other seniors remember writing (and) recieving letters. Wasn't that fun?

A man has a new job as a zookeeper. The head zookeeper tells him that if an animal dies round here then you will have to pay for them.
His first stop is a bird house and he finds 200 finches dead. The zookeeper looks on the chart on the cage which reads $1 a bird. The zookeeper cant afford that so he throws all the dead finches into the lions cage for the lion to eat.
His next stop is the ape house and he finds 10 chimps dead. He looks on the chart on the cage which reads $10 per chimp. He cant afford so much money so he throws them in the lion cage for the lion to eat.
His final stop is the bee hives. He finds 1000 bees dead. He looks on the chart and it reads a dime per bee. Knowing he cant afford such money, he mashes all the bees into a ball and throws them in the lion cage for the lion to eat.
The next day a new lion comes into the cage.
''whats the food like'' He asks
''Its not bad'' Says the lion ''Yesterday we had finch, chimps and mushy bees!''

how can an entire race be racist? or another personal favorite, how can an entire race be built out of nothing but criminals and savages. at first it was my kind that started the mess here but as of late it seems that everyone wants in on the action, not that i'm complaining but it seems kinda funny to see minorities trying to become what we were. it's that what one might call ironic?

I got this obsession with the Vietnam War so I thought it'd be awesome if I could hang out with a Vietnam War vet.

I had a bit of a shock today.
I was cooking in the kitchen and the windows got steamed up
so i opened the back door to let the steam out. I was also making a cup of tea and had the boiling kettle in my hand.
A kid of about 17 walked straight into my kitchen, stopped when he saw me holding the kettle. I shouted at him what the hell did he think he wanted. He turned and ran out.
I think I would have thrown the boiling water over him if he had
come any closer. I suppose then he could have sued me for assault. I didn't ring the police and am wondering if I should have. Was it my fault for not having the kitchen door locked. I am feeling very unsettled by this.

A friend of mine listens to Coast to Coast a lot and told me about this. It makes a lot of sense to me, what do you think? The colour of your skin is supposed to be an indication of the age of your race, black being oldest, brown, red, yellow, and finally white.

I mean, if you look at history, every race but white people lived in harmony with nature; everything that was taken was given back equally and replenished.

I personally thought it would make more sense for them to come from the middle of the earth, where they learned war, technology, and ownership from the lizard people, and that was why our anatomy was similar.

Curious as to what you think here. Haters and Stupid people, go find someone else to beat with experience...

American boxer Bernard Hopkins insisted he "would never lose to a white person" when he came face-to-face with Joe Calzaghe in Las Vegas on Friday. "I would never let a white boy beat me," Hopkins said 5 times. "You can print that. I would never lose to a white person.
