racist relatives

i was having coffee with my grandfather, a japanese man from a well to do family who spent most of world war two thinking of ways to throw himself and his children off a cliff into the ocean before the white devils took away his honor. so we get along pretty well. we were sitting there and i was reading the paper and he was watching people. a couple, a white man and an asian woman, walked by. my grandfather shook his head and did this: , then muttered something under his breath.

"what's that?" i said.

"very disappointing."

"oh?"

"she should know better."

"you realize your son-in-law is white, right?"

he looked at me for a moment, then sighed.

"so very disappointing."

my dad is a self hating puerto rican. whenever something happens when he watches the news in orlando, he blames the puerto ricans... and i sit there and agree!

Yes, it's true, Zaphod and I married each other in June.

It's time you showed him some black on Japanese porn and blew his mind.

These people need to be allowed time to die off. Just be sure to raise your own children to be loving of all walks of life.

Fukcing LOL, he is one of my heros.

I'm the black sheep of my family in that I'm the one who's not racist or homophobic in some aspect. If I ever have kids (not that I intend to) I'm basically only going to instill them with the hatred of weed (the watmmer, not the plant)

that is funny shit.. but it does make me think, if the story was just a tad different, would it still be funny?

i was having coffee with my grandfather, a GERMAN man from a well to do family who spent most of world war two thinking of ways to throw himself and his children off a cliff into the ocean before the JEWISH devils took away his honor. so we get along pretty well. we were sitting there and i was reading the paper and he was watching people. a couple, a black man and a jewish woman, walked by. my grandfather shook his head and did this: , then muttered something under his breath.

"what's that?" i said.

"very disappointing."

"oh?"

"she should know better."

"you realize your son-in-law is a Jew, right?"

My grandmother is racist as well. I've always been very fond of eastern girls and I've had tons of discussions with her about this. At one point I sort of dated an Asian girl and when I showed my grandmother a picture of her she was like, "Yeah... well... she... she looks.... . eh.... nice".

It's weird because no matter how beautiful a foreign person might be she just can't get herself to say it out loud.

She also once said that she wouldn't be able to love an adopted child. What the fuck is that all about?

Yes, true. We should allow them the time to die off and then the slate will be wiped clean for a new generation of non-racists.

Me too!

My grandma and dad are also racist as hell, though the PC term is prejudiced and not racist.

My grandma stopped taking me to this restaurant I love because, "There are too many black people there." And my dad was once like, "I hope you don't have any black friends. 'Cause black is shit, right!? lol!"

all grandparents are racist. i think it's endearing.

my grandad hated the irish even though his dad was a merseyside irish immigrant. some of my relatives in finland are a bit racist, but they're simple woodland folk so it's just quaint.

asians communities are really racist though arn't they? my vietnamese/chinese friend was saying this...

my dad once told me a story about my late grand dad. now from the stories i've heard, this dude was major racist!

when my dad was in high school, he brought home some black friends, about 3 of them. my grand dad looks at them in disgust, then looks back at my dad and says in a puerto rican accent... "THESE GUYS ARE BLACK!" my dad was like, "yeah, but they're my friends!" then my grand father responded screaming "BUT THEY'RE BLAAAAAACK!" and kicked them out!
