They might need to start putting Ronda Rousey in handicap matches to give people a chance to make it to the second round.

They're both great shows. I'm hoping they have more for Zaheer's character arc than 'random superpowerful dude who picked up airbending really quickly.' They'll probably add some tragic past that explains why he wants to take down the Avatar and White Lotus. Give him a bit more to do on voicework than wax philosophic about some book that taught him how to master airbending before he even knew he was one as well.

Legend of Korra is back! Three episodes in one day, and I think they're pretty great. However I thought last season was great as well, and people seemed to hate that.

Like most things, it starts with a racist white person doing something racist.

Pfft, if the world was governed by logic we'd have no need for terms like 'people of colour', 'white privilege' or 'political correctness'. People would avoid hate-speech naturally without the need for sometimes arbitrary rules on what words people can and can't say.

I dunno, non-white just sounds funny and kind of worse. Like the world is split into whites, and non-whites. Having the word 'white' in there just reaffirms this weird cultural thing that everything is somehow related to the white people... even though most of the time it is, and 'people of colour' really has the same problem if you think about it.

EDIT: Right, so 'people of colour' expresses it as a quality that we have and the whiteys don't. We have colour, you imperialist smallpox spreading pricks don't, na na na na na. 'Non-white' makes it sound like we got splashed with paint early on and so we miss out on the whole being white thing.

I'm not sure how you got there, but sure, it's entirely possible. Maybe they walked up to Canada and moved back later for some reason.

Ahem... 'This is evident in the racial prejudice reported by Africans who immigrated to America sometime after the slave trade, African-Americans, Native Americans, Indian-Americans, Chinese-Americans, Japanese-Americans, Laos-Americans, Korean-Americans...'

But I'm not African-American, or African...

Plus I spend most of my time desperately hiding from the sun, so my skin has been described as being something between 'tan' and 'person with liver cancer'.

Come on now, it's difficult being both politically correct and using conversational shorthand people will recognise. If I can't say 'person of colour', how else do I express solidarity with my fellow peoples of... something other than colour.

As a non-white person, I...

As a brownie, I...

As a wild, not-European savage barely evolved past using sharpened sticks to hunt my lunch, I...

Washington Irish Immigrants Taking Our Jobs

Washington All Of Ireland Is Really A Part Of Great Britain, Isn't It?

There, we have successfully offended the Irish community.

Well, if there are no Irish people around who feel like complaining about it, I'm not going to lead the charge for them.

I wouldn't know those specific examples, one of the teams in my national sports competition are called the New Zealand Warriors. Are those names referring to a specific race? Those generally don't work.

EDIT: The Indians one does seem to be specifically targetting a race. I acknowledge there are times where political correctness can be confusing in what you can or can't say (I only realised quite recently I shouldn't be saying 'midget' or 'guido') but really, the trade-off of not offending minorities who just want to fit in society with the rest of the straight white men of middle class income or higher is worth it.

Political Correctness really does suck, and people are far too sensitive about this kind of thing. I don't care if they change their name or not personally... but I wouldn't bat an eye at a team being named the honkies or crackers... I mean a person can't even wear a head dress without it being "racist" anymore. On a side note I totally want this NY Jews cap.

Sucks for whom? I'm sure the people not being verbally or physically abused derive some kind of benefit from this dastardly policy of respect, even if the poor non-minorities have to learn how to communicate without using various f-words, n-words and c-words.

Washington White Power

I can hear the angry white people defending it right now.

Racism is the greatest tradition of all. Where would society be today without a healthy dose of imperialism and racism?

Been trying to get into Mad Men recently. Two episodes in and I have the same problem I had with Breaking Bad; I personally dislike just about every character on the show and everything they say and think. For such a handsome man, Don Draper is such a dick.

I enjoyed following the Marvel game, I'll give this a shot.
