Posted by u/VaughnFry Manages Trash 2 years ago Dear Black People, Change the Batteries in Your Smoke Detectors Tangent I've noticed something. If I'm gaming on Xbox Live and an African American joins the chat, there is a guarantee you'll hear the chirp of laziness. It's easier to ignore the low battery warning than to address it. Sure enough they grow accustom to it like one living by a railroad, even to the extent that when someone calls it out they say they can't hear it. And it's not exclusive to America as evidently Lennox Lewis has recently shown. It's the new black guy stereotype. So telling how a Latina can call in and be berated by Ace for having a chirp in the background while Lennox Lewis's chirp goes ignored. 139 Comments + Award Share
