I get annoyed by the xfinity, “ You must be Stephens phone” commercial.

The dad should be mad at his whore daughter instead of Stephen .
It’s not Stephens fault that this guys daughter is the town pump.

Your son was going through life thinking only one dude was named Jake?

Your son is kind of an idiot.

Do I really have to explain why it’s awkward??
Yeah

Telling him that hollywood producers want him to be ashamed of his race and that they think it’ll make THEM more money to have Jake as and AA is a lot for a 8 yo to handle
Then maybe you shouldn't spin your answer like that.

Assuming you aren't lying, of course. I find it hard to believe that an 8 year old gives a shite. Then again, I guess it's not too far-fetched that you're raising your kids to care about race.

Tell your kid it is just a damned commercial that in all reality effects his life in no way and leave it at that.
Or give him a chore to do in looking up another insurance company for you and your family to do business with if it bothers you that much.

Ironically, my State Farm agent is a black dude named Jake.

I wasn’t aware that the only “Jakes” were white guys who work for State Farm. Take it easy when you tell your kid that there may be another kid with the same first name as his.

Only if you're a retard. Jake at State Farm is clearly now being used to describe any State Farm customer service rep. Stop being dumb.

This. I guess OP didn't watch all the way through. Black Jake asks white Jake about the couple at the end.
