I'm not leveling an accusation of racism or anything, but the title strikes me as odd that it specifies it's a black guy eating the peppers.
I thought that too but he does introduce himself as a "trained black-ass professional".
New title: Black-ass Professional vs Bhut Jolokia


Please excuse my lack of perception, I suffer from the retarded.

I'm not leveling an accusation of racism or anything, but the title strikes me as odd that it specifies it's a black guy eating the peppers. Do blak guys get a +5 save against poisons or something?

This is, for some reason, one of my favourite videos on the sift. I've come back to it time and again, never remebering the title and having to find it the old-fashioned way.

Congratulations on losing your "P!"


Why thank you. Roll out my red carpet, and all that.

Yup they're home-grown, hence my use of Celtic. Was that inappropriate?

I don't think there's anything wrong with a person saying: "I appear to be making decisions based on a prejudice I know to be false. How do I go about fixing this?" Without people jumping down their throats. On the other hand, she doesn't even understand a damn thing. Like, arguing with people who don't acknowledge things like cause and effect is pointless. You might as well try to argue in Tanglish.

.... But when I sift rubberbandits, no one cares?

I hate you, Videosift!

I actually think he's overreacting to the supposed 'alcohol abuse' part of the story.

While I understand that the life of a hostage taker has lower priority, that looked insanely dangerous, and an unneessary escalation of force, not that I'm any expert. Shots 2,3, and 4 all seemed unnecessary for ay purpose except to guarantee fatality.

Ant's version seems to be dead, so I can't verify it's the same one, but maybe this one will go somewhere...

It seems, Conan, that your strategy is that he should always be punished for the rest of his entire life for these things (on some small level anyway), which I don't think really helps anyone.

Yeah, if you're raising awareness you might need to post a link to a more coherent description. Did Marky Mark assault someone?>> ^Locque:

Yes. The racist fucker you beats people half to death, then goes to jail two days for it and then living his life being convinced he'd "payed for his mistakes" and that telling folks he hasn't have a problem finding sleep. Fuck him.
Yes i repeat myself on that topic but i have the feeling raising awareness is the least thing i can do, even if it's of no use.

Wait...what? Did I miss something?


Yup.


I genuinely don't believe in holding something against him for what happened in another lifetime- don't get me wrong, I'm no Marky Mark fan at all, but that stuff is ancient history and neither of us know him. He might still be a shitbag, but he could be a saint. None of us are privy to his private life really, or who he is as a person. If it had happened say, in 2006, maybe then it would seem more relevant, but nothing about his life or character now seems to resemble what it was then. To be honest, pronouncing doom on him for something he did when he was 16 makes one look pretty bad in my eyes. Having said that, I dunno, maybe he is still the same unrepentant racist douchebag. But I have considerable reason to doubt.

On the flipside, I've come back to watch this video a couple of times since yesterday. It's quite a catchy song, and I actually quite like Felicia Day. She's no Alyson Hannigan, but she seems to have more to say.
