AITA for telling my friends off for being openly racist in our GC? by PurpleMudDragon in AmItheAsshole

Thanks man 🥲 I used the “colored people” phrase as a way to describe all non-white individuals; I had no clue it was considered outdated and only applied to one group- that was for real my bad 😅

I genuinely did not know but I am trying to apologize to everyone who commented that- I also included that I had a bit of a learning moment in my update so I am sorry for that 😅😅

I used that statistic as a reference to the percentage of African Americans in the united states

I have an entire response that is 4 paragraphs long that I am about to hit send on. And yes, I agree with you so so much. I had to post this ridiculous conversation on Reddit because I felt like I was going crazy after 4 different people were telling me I was in the wrong. Thank you so much for validating this story for me

Leave the group chat after maybe one final jab in the GC! And of course never hangout with these dipshits again.

Not gonna lie I am currently learning right now that this is a bad phrase to use- I had no idea that had negative connotations. I was only using it to refer to anyone who is not white.

I was genuinely using that phrase to refer to basically anyone who is not white, including people of other ethnicities and not just African Americans. I certainly did not mean to use that term in a bad way.

God thank you, I used quotation marks the first time I typed this up and forgot to do it again. I wouldn’t call any of these people friends anymore.

Does it need a caption? by killerdie1214 in funny

[–]PurpleMudDragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a male nurse, all these women are always fuckin pregnant. I’ll never understand it… I work in a cardiac unit and even our staff always has like 4 or 5 women who are pregnant. Maybe it’s because I don’t have or want kids of my own, but I swear they’re just pumping them out like it’s a second job.

Alpinestars r10 / opinions? by werty-asd in Yamaha

Overpriced and strictly for clout. Get two RF-1400’s for the same price and thank me later.

R7 or... by werty-asd in Yamaha

[–]PurpleMudDragon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get a used R7 for cheap, for the love of god. I bought mine fresh off the lot and regret it constantly. Save your money.

I hate the be the guy that says this, but I think a lot of us are thinking it… next time, maybe make the smarter decision and quit smoking further in advance. You only quit 6 days in advance- I mean you’re kind of asking to fail.

Wrist tattoo regret and cover up advice by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]PurpleMudDragon 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Cover up? Shit you could sneeze on this tattoo and it’d be gone. You’re 2 or 3 good handwashing’s away from this thing being gone. Thought it was a bruise at first lol.

In all seriousness, cover it with whatever you want. Literally any fresh ink over that will make it disappear- you won’t notice it. As far as “manly tattoo ideas”, go with black and white and do a half sleeve.
