@bones Do you know, even as I was typing that I thought some cupcake is going to turn it into a boob joke.

[Mokey]

@jegga Yup. Very sad and unfortunate accident, but calling him a reality tv star is just stupid.

Your ‘jokes’ about Indian people aren’t funny – they’re racist and the reason for the hostility in Britain towards people like me | The Independent

'Your ‘jokes’ about Indian people aren’t funny – they’re racist and the reason for the hostility in Britain towards people like me'

Language is a powerful medium through which unconscious bias and prejudice against certain nationalities is reinforced. These jokes alienate people like me, and make us feel isolated and different

Harden up you narg fuckwits. Learn to drive and not stink the place out with curry while you're at it.

@mokey from piston wristed gibbon to cupcake, what a day I'm having.

@mn5 you read the article in Apu's voice didn't you?

it's pretty much inevitable karma-wise that one of MN5's kids will marry a wheelchair-bound asian communist. who's also a blues supporter, for the quinella.

I think he'd prefer a tranny to my edit.

@bones Nah, just a cupcake. No one is a piston wristed gibbon for wanting the basic courtesy and intelligence of spelling your name right. Anything else is a person being a lazy shithead. Especially when it's in reply to an email and your name is literally right there.

Does it make me seem less bad if I mention I have friends who are Indian and also have great senses of humour?

Swiped right on tinder doesn't equal friends.

@mokey obviously they aren't fans of the fraggles.

@jegga It seems some students and parents are keen to prove the principal's point.

Pretty much , there’s some great quotes in there from feral parents and kids.

@jegga one of my best mates used to have a high position at that school. From listening to his stories, apparently in retaliation to that speech, the kids are acting exactly as they normally would, being fluffybunnies and trashing the joint. That school seems fucked.

What on earth are they taking a stand on? Their right to wag school? Jesus this stuff makes you despair for humanity.

Truth hurts?

Fraser High has had problems since the days of Martin Elliott. While the principal might have gone a little too far she is right. Unfortunately the very students she is referring to probably weren't at the assembly anyway.
