"Black Hole"

[SubGod22]

I guess I never realized that the term "Black Hole" was racist. I think most right thinking Americans would agree that it's not and that some people just go out of their way to be offended and cry racism. :roll:

I saw that on "Red Eye" last night. did you hear what he said after to the news lady? he said something about jewing me down or something

[SubGod22]

I haven't had a chance to watch last nights Red Eye yet. I did here something about that comment though.

That's the most assinine thing I've ever read. Angel food, devils food, black sheep, white sheep? Okay, following that logic, where's this wonderful white hole to go along with the black one? And, what's this Red Eye all about and why haven't the Albinos staged a protest? Where does it end?

Red Eye is the greatest show to come on at 2am :D

Here's the website of the host.

Here's the fan site for the show.

And I agree, the black hole thing was bad enough. When he started bringing in the baking products and sheep I couldn't contain my laughter. Luckily my boss had gone home for the day.

I read about this “issue” this morning. Frankly, I don’t care. It is not even worth a comment.

But suppose, speaking metaphorically, if it were a white hole as the individual who was offended contended, that might suggest the central collections office (or whatever office) was actually doing its job -- ejecting paperwork in a timely fashion. :whistle:

When is this stuff gonna end? How much more nonsense can people actually dream up?

I have no idea what this discussion is about. "Black Hole" is a term used in physics; black holes can be "mean" (e.g. http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/ga...-20061205.html).

I object to people kidnapping terms. For example, I object to the use of the word "gay" to mean "homosexual."
