So, this racist sign on an insurance agency in Maine...

Isn't it just disheartening that people didn't learn nothin' from Fuzzy Zoeller 25 years earlier? If it wasn't OK in the '90s, how in the blue fuck do you think you're going to get away with it in 2022? And not for nothin', but fried chicken is the tits, and good collards are GOOD (but OK collards are meh), and I'm pretty white from the waist up.
Zoeller did make the cut at Augusta in ’97 but, like everyone else, was well back of Tiger Woods on Sunday. He shot a closing-round 78 to finish at 7-over the week, 25 shots behind Woods, and tied for 34th. Zoeller was asked about Tiger upon completing his round and this is what he had to say (h/t CBS Sports).
“He’s doing quite well, pretty impressive. That little boy is driving well and he’s putting well. He’s doing everything it takes to win. So, you know what you guys do when he gets in here? You pat him on the back and say congratulations and enjoy it and tell him not to serve fried chicken next year. Got it. Or collard greens or whatever the hell they serve.”

In 2020, there were 18,635 black people in Maine, or 1.7% of the population. I used to joke that I knew all 6 of the black people in AZ (more like 4-5%), but man, Maine is lily-white.

Race isn’t enough, they’ll take it down to nationality.

Does this have to do with age, too?
Jun 23, 2022, 12:56 PM

The average age of a Maine resident is nearly 45 years old (nearly 6 years older than NC residents for example), but there are a #### ton of old folks. Speaking from experience, old folks have the affinity to be very racist because they weren't quite brought up in todays era of inclusivity, even though they were the ones to promote peace, love, drugs, sex, and rock and roll.
I agree with you on the yankee thing, though. Midwesterners, while nice, also have a racist streak in them from my experience.

Remember the Maine

Thing is the main thing
csb -
At lunch last Sunday going through the buffet line, there was a young Black lady getting a plate for one of the residents with a walker and she asked me which piece of fried chicken was a breast.
I showed her how to tell the difference between a breast and a thigh, she thanked me and we went on our way.
Im reminded of a bit of dialogue in that classic tv drama, Carter Country where the old White sheriff asks the new Black deputy if he liked fried chicken. Deputy replies nope, watermelon neither. A real classic zinger that puts Seinfeld to shame.

I forgot how great Archie Bunker was...race relations, youth relations, marital relations, that show was awesome. No way it could be made today.

I appreciate that somebody downvoted this.

We'll assume it's because you're a racist and people aren't generally OK with you being an open racist anymore. Have you thought about moving to Maine? They appear to be about 25 years behind the rest of the country.

For firing okra, I mean? Call it into your office to let it go on a Friday afternoon at 4:45 pm?
