Is banana a racist word?

[monkers]

I reckon the joke about a "slant" on a bridge was probably scripted, written in advance, and the shot was set up.

I feel pretty sure you are correct, but by saying the words Clarkson signed up to it. Also he has done similar things in his own writing.

I think the slant was the 'slope on the bridge'?

Show me how to signal I think racism is a joke.

There is plenty of humour to be found in racism. I hope you too can find some that you enjoy in due course.

This is the most recent find that I would recommend (I believe the message is NACA-compliant): https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7349662/

Some people found this funny.

And some found it offensive, go figure?

Yes.

The sort of people who find racist innuendo funny.

Yes.

The sort of people who find racist innuendo funny.

So they found it funny and offensive at the same time, a bit confused are 'they'?

 

[multitool]

Yes, it's a bit like the reaction people would have if I called you a thick daffodil. Some would be shocked, some would find it funny, and others might nod quietly in agreement. Some might be all three.

Life is complex, isn't it.

Looks good! Is that based on a true story too?
