For argument's sake, outside of your friends specifically in what context is it OK to use any of those terms?
Would you feel it's OK to start saying the N word to any random person (white, black or otherwise) even if the context was correct? As with rap music or Spike Lee vs Tarantino movie usage?
Personally, I wouldn't, and I would stop anyone from speaking to me with these words as well.
Just because you can say a word and it has a context, doesn't mean the word is any less offensive.
This will never become unfunny to me: This morning, French posts an awesome, in-depth film review of a very promising safety prospect, looking at his strengths playing the football, his willingness to come up in run support, etc. A few hours later, we're back to pie.
I assume a "cobbler" is classified as a pie? I like the final four, but I would change Blackberry Cobbler for Apple Pie. Addtionally, I must say that Coconut got screwed by having to matchup against Red Velvet in the first round. I think it would have won against any of the others with the exception of Ice Cream and German Chocolate.
Even they were smart enough to know that a horrible pie filled with cheese and cabbage is better than cake.

# | Bitter blog - New o-line coach Stacy Searels 'a perfect fit' at Virginia Tech Thanks. I did that a couple times when I was writing it but thought I caught them all. Fixed it.

So you're a Commie if you prefer pie?

# | Bitter blog - New o-line coach Stacy Searels 'a perfect fit' at Virginia Tech It'll definitely be a welcome change from the "sacksonsacksonsacksonsacks" mentality Newsome seemed to have.
It's a grey area.
I just read that in the Soviet Union, when they didn't have shortages, they put cheese and cabbage in pies. This is why we won the Cold War.
Does it?! Whoops my bad, I'm in class talking about lightning right now so my brain is kinda everywhere
Dunno if this is good or bad news for you but.... there's gonna be a large accumulation there too (you mean NC right?) the track is almost perfect that its gonna run right through Asheville right into Blacksburg and central Virginia before pulling north up into the northeast
sooooooo you're gonna know how bad its gonna be about 3-4 hours ahead of us, id prepare for a pretty big snowfall, those of you in south Carolina and eastern north Carolina theres a legitimate chance that you could get a significant ice storm, buy water and whatever you need, and be prepared to be stuck in your house a few days.... hopefully power doesn't kick out for any of us
1) Brown Sugar Pie would Dominate Cheesecake. Cherry Pie would dominate French Silk.
The Final Four should be Cherry Pie, Brown Sugar Pie, Apple Pie, and Peanut Butter Pie. And, Tres Leches Cake has to make the field. The Selection Committee did a terrible job this year.

My point was that context matters more than anything, the friends comment was just to show that. Just because some people will take a comment out of context doesn't mean the comment was racist.
They also have an "avalanche warning". Exciting.
EDIT: After further inspection, that says Utah?

Why do copied tweets just show up as a gray line for me?
No question. But people still use phrases like "Those People", which leads people to think so. There are generally held social systems. My father (75 y/o) and I have had many a back and forth regarding the "N - Word".
His generation sees it as completely unacceptable at all times. My generation began to contextualize the word.
so what does that mean for Asheville? no snow?
I think very likely his impact will be felt mainly on special teams this season and I'm hoping he's taught to wrap up on tackles. Would love to see a special teams player bring the heat like Alonzo Tweedy did.
I'm hoping Donovan Riley establishes himself as the third corner. Desmond Frye and Chuck Clark can hopefully perform well enough at FS/Rover to have the coaching staff feel comfortable.
My thinking is that Holland Fisher could be really useful at whip if RVD isn't all the way back from injuries.
Or a healthy appetite for these...
Technically this battle has played out tournament style
This was the promo
and here is the results of the battle
Ironically, the Pie that won has "cake" in its name. The controversy continues.
I agree words are just words and its the context, but pls dont use the "I had black friends" defense. Its lazy. What you and your circle of friends do in private is not always reflective of society on the whole. But the words written earlier are indeed racist. You must have never been called any of those terms by stranger before. Which is why the black/Mexican friends argument doesnt carry weight.
Screw around name calling with each other in the wrong neighborhood, and you won't be able to explain your way out of what might happen with "But my Black or Mexican friends said its ok"...
There is only one good cake, A PANCAKE
