Do you derive more personal meaning from posting on a message board all day everyday or fixing fake racial injustices?

Very well said. We could hang out.

But, just for the record, I’m not gay. ;)

Davante Lewis isn't exactly a rando in BR. His word alone is going to carry a fair amount of weight. Unless the Chimes has significant evidence to the contrary, they are going to have problems.


He's definitely a racist.

Part of me admires you willingness to openly admit you are racist. I have to give it to you


You openly display you are a pathetic individual.

What does it say about you that you hang around a place that you consider full of terrible people? You must not have any other purpose in life. Sad. You're a loser.

Damn, they removed my post. Let me replace the “bad” words and try again …

quote:

From my experience, only idiots and snowflakes believe that public displays of racism towards blacks still exist at any statistically-significant levels in America. Because it doesn’t. Just because the media and BLM says it does, doesn’t make it true in real life.

If you act like an arse and get called out on it, that’s not racism. If you’re a bad employee and get fired, that’s not racism. If you get pulled over for speeding, that’s not racism. If you get evicted from your home for not paying your bills, that’s not racism. Grow up, it’s called life and quit blaming everything that goes wrong in your life on other people.

Furthermore, I’m gay. If someone called me “the F-word” at Chimes (which by the way would never happen because I’d never give anyone a reason to call me “the F-word” in the first place), but if it did, I’d be angry at the person that said it, and that’s where it would end. I wouldn’t blame Chimes, I wouldn’t blame America, I wouldn’t blame systemic homophobia. I wouldn’t seek sympathy for “it’s exhausting being gay”…I’d chalk it up to one idiot a-hole and move along with my life. Because I know the vast vast majority of people aren’t racist, aren’t homophobic, and would look “down upon” said idiot along with me.

ETA: and yes Chimes gumbo is poo…I wish they would change to regular gumbo and not vegetable soup

I hope this catches on and The Chimes is boycotted by anybody who believes this story and/or follows that movement. Quality of customers will have shot up a few notches if so. Might actually be enjoyable to eat there again.

And will also be able to get a table in a timely manner because I won't be competing with the 20 top weekly family reunion paying ten different ways.

shocker. Lester throwing around the word racist in another thread when no one is being racist.

Lester is a piece of shite, so that adds up.

You’re one of only a handful of posters that is legitimately a POS.

Tell us more about how you’re going to indoctrinate our children and there’s nothing we can do about it.
