That is pretty funny. The pic of Sally being clueless as to what the pictionary drawing is kills me.

That's hilarious. Thanks.

From the "Stuff Our Friends Care About!" page, I learn that black people care about Hallmark.

I want Sally's sweater. It's just so kicky!

Very cool. I also like the fact that they link to some valid sites and sources for black history education and whatnot. Nicely done site.

I think this is racist and should be removed from the internet! Matt!

Johnny is generous enough to remark upon how "articulate" I am! That makes me feel good!

Funny little site. Good find.

Get a grip!

My best friend is black. No, really he is! And me and him are down, he tells me. That means that we're tight. I think that means he thinks we're best friends too. Anyway, this site mirrors our shtick pretty closely. Goddamned funny.

This site is a little late on the making fun of white folks ignorance comedy train, Def comedy jam covered this back in the 90's, and did it better.

Cool! I had that throbbing heart animated GIF on my first website back in 1996. Yeah!

I thought the link to Hallmark's 'Mahogany Cards' was the most fun: Mahogany features more than 800 cards to help African Americans honor their relationships in innovative, compelling and culturally-relevant ways. Thanks, Hallmark!

Sometimes liberals just don't understand our culture. That's ok, as I am a tolerant person. I have lots of liberal friends. No, really!
posted by krinklyfig at 4:42 AM on October 19, 2002

Wait, I thought liberals were so infatuated with pop culture they let their brains spill onto their shoes? I have so much research to do before I understand liberal bashing.

Funny site.

oh that was referring to a very boring argument
about people being reffered to as vermin,
it was to do with the homeless and i thought somebody
was pulling my wire about it in this thread,
bit too sensitive there.
anyways , this is an excellent site .

i stayed in harlem for a while , maybe i looked like these guys walking about trying to fit in whilst hoping there were
police cars outside 145th street station.
i think i watched too many cop shows and read too many newspapers because people were really nice and friendly
and i ended up embarrased about my initial fear.

excellent! I'm going to send a link to my black colleagues! Then I'll have black friends too!!!!

Is there one of these for being friends with women or gays or the disabled or even black disabled gay women??????
posted by terrymiles at 12:37 PM on October 19, 2002

and how about fat fifty-one year old heterosexual English people? I mean people could learn how to be friends with me???
posted by terrymiles at 12:39 PM on October 19, 2002

Ooooops! sorry, you just missed the cut-off. We do have a program for being friends with fat fifty year old heterosexual English people. But bear with us. Maybe by next year we will get our web page up for fat fifty-one year old heterosexual English people.

Coming up: Conjoined twin Indian girls who own ferrets and can't dance love us!

Funny stuff...I too have been known to love a white person here and there. I noticed that the domain is registered to someone @ eyebeam.org ....same people as the NYC rejection line and the Nike sweatshop spam!
