What is it Scott should have said that would have carried anything like the same meaning? "I have a roommate who fits the stereotypical image of monolithic black culture held by the Atlas Anti-Racism League"?
I was wondering the same. Someone who is obviously racist wouldn't use the words Scott did, somebody that wasn't comfortable around black people (but wasn't a racist) wouldn't use those words. The only kind of person that would use those words is somebody that knows he's not racist and doesn't give a flying funk if you think he is or not. Which is the best way to be. You can't and shouldn't change who you are because some people who get offended all the Og damned time might get offended yet again by the words you use. Who cares what those overly sensitive assholes think?
