...this is serious!

Dave Chappelle's addicted!

OMG!

I SAW HIM AT IRONFORGE!

I told you he was cool!

That explains his breakdown.

He didn't go to Africa for a drug addiction. The truth comes out.

I may have been astounded if I knew who that kak he is.

Just some comedian.

Haha! I can't see the combination of Dave Chapelle and WoW but it's awesome anyway.

For the heck of it, I played as rick_james_008 (not my usual game name) when I d/led the Battlefield 2 demo.

He's what got thousands of people that likely hadn't even heard of rick james to spout off "I'm rick james, *****!" and a couple other terms.

He's funny, but it's sad so many stupid people had to abuse that.

Stupid people like that were a factor in his little breakdown. He couldn't get through a stand-up routine without people from the audience yelling stuff from the TV show. He walked out on some performances because of it.

Rick James?

Some of my favorite chappelle quotes:

SAMUEL JACKSON! IT'LL GET YOU DRUNK! YOU'LL BE ****IN' FAT GIRLS IN NO TIME! YOU MIGHT EVEN FIGHT A NIGGA OR TWO!


Tiger Woods: So long fried rice, hello fried chicken. I love you Dad!


Audience Member: Negrodamus, will Arsenio Hall ever have a show again?
Negrodamus: Yes. Arsenio Hall will have a new show called "Good Morning, Black America". It will be played at noon throughout the country.



Vernon: THUG LIFE! You think this a game, nigga! Arf! Arf! WU-TANG!


Dave Chappelle: Who? Who's Nick Cannon?
Chappelle's Kid: Daddy,
[with huge grin on face]
Chappelle's Kid: Nick Cannon's 'ilarious.
Dave Chappelle: Man, **** you son! I'm glad you think he's so gaddamn hilarious because he just walked off with your school clothes money. It's, isn't it? I'm broke nigga, I'm broke!


Clayton Bigsby: Let's talk about Chinese people! With their kung-fu and their silly chang-chang-chong talk! We can't understand you! Go back to yer country! White power!


Wayne Brady: Break yourself, nigga!
Man on Street: Oh ****, it's Wayne Brady!
[Wayne Brady proceeds to blast man with AK47]
Wayne Brady: Riverside, motha****a!

He said the...

...n-word...

Lol i loved that sketch.

This one is great to. You actually have to watch most of them to get the full effect:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Prosecutor: So, you don't think Michael Jackson is guilty?
Dave Chappelle: No, man. He made "Thriller".
[pause]
Dave Chappelle: Thriller.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

[sportscasters covering the Racial Draft]
Robert Petkoff: The blacks have won the coin toss, so they get to go first.
Dave Chappelle: Wow, that's the first lottery a black person's won in a long time.
Bill Burr: Yes, and they'll probably still complain. Ha-ha-ha-ha.
Dave Chappelle: heh heh - man, **** you.


----------------------------------------------------------------------

P. Diddy: If I had my way, I'd never work. I'd just stay home all day, watch Scarface 50 times, eat a turkey sandwich, and have sex all ****ing day. Then I'd dress up like a clown, and surprise kids at schools. Then I'd take a dump in the back of a movie theater, and just wait until somebody sat in it. Hear it squish. That's funny to me. Then I'd paint, and read, and play violin. I'd climb the mountains, and sing the songs that I like to sing. But I don't got that kinda time.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
P. Diddy: What are you doing, Ness? You just gonna do your taxes right now? Is that hot? Is that what's going down in the streets?


Charlie Murphy: Because of my complexion, he use to call me Darkness. He calls me and brother Darkness. The Darkness Brothers. See, this is long before Wesley Snipes. Back then... we was the blackest niggas on the planet according to Rick James.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Prosecutor: Are you aware that Robert Blake has been accused of murdering his wife?
Dave Chappelle: Oh yeah. Baretta did that ****.

[R. Kelly jury selection hearing]
Dave Chappelle: Listen, lady, the burden of proof is on the state.
[shouts]
Dave Chappelle: On the State! You have got to prove - *to me* - beyond a reasonable doubt whether or not this man is a pisser.
Prosecutor: Aren't your doubts unreasonable?
Dave Chappelle: No, it's not unreasonable. We're talking about a justice system that had 500 people whose cases were overturned by DNA evidence. I seen a tape where five cops beat up a nigga and they said that they had a reasonable doubt. I got my doubts too! All right? How come they never found Biggie and Tupac's murderers, but they could arrest O.J. the next day. Nicole Simpson can't rap!
[pounds hand on witness stand]
Dave Chappelle: [shouts] I want justice! You're out of order, Miss!
[grabs judge's gavel and begins to pound]
Dave Chappelle: [shouts] This whole goddamn court is out of order. Everybody!
Prosecutor: [after whispering to her partner] Mr. Chappelle, you're dismissed.
Dave Chappelle: [pees on prosecutors while seated at the witness stand] And that's from the heart!

Hahaha! Those were from the same episode right?

I also like the sketch about the white family with the last name "Niggar"

Niggar is classic.

"You must be the Wetbacks!"
"It's...'Sanchez.'"

....

"No, just kidding."

"You gotta diversify yo' bonds, nigga."

Aparantly that's okay to do when you're Black.

1. Yes it is OK to do when you're black.

2. He said Nigga, not the other one.. There's a difference.

Uh...

It's pragmatics that govern language, not semantics.
It doesn't matter what words you use, it's how you use them that will construct the meaning.

I think a black man (my idol - also in my quotes) put it best.


Niggas are the ones you see hangin at the clubs, smokin weed, just relaxin with their homies

Nigg---...are the ones you seen hanging from the tree's and pullin ropes behind them.

That, too, is my interpretation of the word's.

don't abuse the apostrophe, nigga.

There is no "proper" use of a racial slur. No matter who uses it or how they mis-spell it.

But it isn't a racial slur. Not in the context used. Not at all.

There is no "proper" use of language, either.

If I'm discriminating against blacks, then it doesn't matter what language I'm using. It's the discrimination that is the issue, not the language being used to do it.

So every black younth/man that uses the word is hating their own people?

You know, instead of having this debeat, if white/any other race don't understand why we can say it, and not them...just dont say it. It is safer that way. Let us say what we want, and if we want to make better of a derogetory word, let us do it, its not your place.

As a user of the English language, I have just as much right to say that as any other word. What, are people going to start calling dogs something else because the word "dog" holds negative connotations?

Jesus, I never said you didn't have the right, but for those who wonder wether they can say it or not in consideration of disrespect, just don't say it. You can say it all you want, I know a bunch of people who feel nigger is a great word to replace stupid, idiot, and other not so nice words.



Ok, I am going to try and make sense of what you are saying, so I am going to fill in your statment with our current topic:



- or-



I would sure hope so. Just look at it as this. There are many people who still feel offended by the word. I know some black people who will freak even if a white person says nigga repeating lyrics. I am not one of those, I could careless, but don't you think it is safer to stay away from a word that REALLLY you have no business saying BECAUSE of the historical implications? I am, it just works out well for everyone, unless saying nigger and nigga is so important to YOUR daily vocabulary. For some urban youth it is. If thats how you speak then, you must live around a bunch of mes.

I understand the rationale behind the slang version.

Good, its not that hard, and I don't see why its made such a big deal, especially when the rationale is explained.

Ubuu's ma nigga :p

When I lived in California my Black friends called me one of two things: The Pale Brotha, or The White Nigga. Now I am no wigger, I don't use urban slang except to make those I meet for the first time more comfortable.

Then maybe we should change yankee to yankay, as yankee was invented as a derogatory term. :p

Kidding. I'm surprised there are still people who don't know the difference between the niggah/er thing.

6 years ago I would have said that..but not now. Still too much ignorance.

I understand that it may appear wrong for a white person to say "nigger" or "nigga," but saying that one group can say it and one can't just encourages racial barriers further.

Someday I hope people stop being stupid.
