It Can't Get Worse Than This
Published on June 27, 2009 By KFC Kickin For Christ In Humor

Now this is one big nightmare!  Hope you have a sense of humor.  Sent to me by a friend. 

The Nightmare

In the nightmare I found myself nude in bed, and I was looking at a mirror on the ceiling, and I discovered that I am a Negro, and I'm circumcised!

Quickly I sat up, found my pants and looked in the pockets to find my driver's license photo and it was that same color. Black.

I felt myself being very depressed, downcast, sitting in a chair.

       But it's a wheelchair!!

That means, of course, besides being black and Jewish, I'm also disabled!!!

I said to myself, aloud 'This is impossible. It's impossible that I should be black and Jewish and disabled.'

'It's the pure and holy truth', whispers someone from behind me.

I turn around, and it's my boyfriend.

Just what I needed!!!

I am a homosexual, and on top of that with a Mexican boyfriend..

Oh, my God..... black, Jewish, disabled, gay, with a Mexican boyfriend, drug addict, and HIV-positive!!!

Desperate, I begin to shout, cry, pull my hair, and Oh, noooooo...I'm bald!!!

The telephone rings.

It's my brother.

He is saying, 'Since mom and dad died the only thing you do is hang out, take drugs, and laze around all day doing nothing. Get a job you worthless piece of crap... Any job.'

Mom?... Dad?... Nooooooooo... Now I'm also an unemployed orphan!

I try to explain to my brother how hard it is to find a job when you are black, Jewish, disabled, gay with a Mexican boyfriend, are a drug addict, HIV positive, bald, and an orphan.

But he doesn't get it.

Frustrated, I hang up.

It's then I realize I only have one hand!!!

With tears in my eyes I go to the window to look out.

I see I live in a shanty-town full of cardboard and tin houses! There is trash everywhere.

Suddenly I feel a sharp pain near my pacemaker.... Pacemaker?

Besides being black, Jewish, disabled, a fairy with a Mexican boyfriend, a drug addict, HIV positive, bald, orphaned, unemployed, an invalid with one hand, and having a bad heart, I live in a crappy neighborhood.

At that very moment my boyfriend approaches and says to me, 'Sweetie pie, my love, my little black heart throb, have you decided what you are going to wear to Washington to see Obama.

Say it isn't so!!! I can handle being a black, disabled, one armed, drug addicted, Jewish homosexual on a pacemaker who is HIV positive, bald, orphaned, unemployed, lives in a slum, and has a Mexican boyfriend,

but please, oh dear God, please don't tell me I'm a Democrat ...

Heh, I recall the OT punishment for making fun of the bald.

ya, but there's much more to that story than baldness!   And besides, it wasn't a joke!

This was great.....all these terrible things, and a Democrat to boot. Horrifying! It'd be one of those nightmares that sticks with you all day and makes you moody, and feel all oogy inside!

How was it not a joke?  It's a true account?  Of a guy who looks in the mirror but fails to see that he has only one hand until he goes to hang up a phone?


Which are you first and foremost, KFC, a Christian or a Republican? 


RW, at least I would expect this kind of thing from you.  KFC claims to be a Christian, though.

How was it not a joke? It's a true account?

Yes, it was a true account and the whole story there was of them mocking God, not really Elisha (the one they called bald).  He probably wasn't even bald.  There's more to the story .........

KFC claims to be a Christian, though.

So Christians can't tell jokes?   I "claim" to be a Christian?  So by telling this joke, I forfeit my Christianity?  Really TW if I thought someone would really be offended I wouldn't have put it up.  So far, not one person has come to me here and said they were terribly offended and hurt.  The first one who does, I would gladly delete this whole thread. 

Where's Lucas?  If I had put Puerto Rico instead of Mexican or Black would he think it wasn't funny?

Um, I was talking about your stupid joke not the bible story.

KFC, I think you should be ashamed of yourself for propagating such bigotry and ugliness.  It is entirely unChristlike and unbecoming of you. 

I think you have answered my question as to which you are first and foremost.  And the answer isn't Christian.

on Jun 29, 2009

TW....it isn't surprising you come after me like this.  You're being very tenacious here for some reason.   I'm not even sure your point here.  You've already said you're not offended so not sure other, than you just keep looking for opportunities to criticize me. 

I'd say I was sorry if I offended you but since I haven't I guess I'll just say I'm sorry you feel this way.

Texas Wahine
Being Christian is a choice.  Ethnicity or race is not.  Of course, the race thing wasn't the only tasteless aspect.

The joke just seems crass coming from you.   

I have to say, these were my thoughts exactly.

Yes, the ending was funny, but since when does the end justify the means?

Well,

To the Texas Whiner I would say THIS, to your being a Jew, I can cure that with a simple public disclaimer that you now wish to follow the Christian faith (plug in your own desire here if you wish) As to your being disabled, I can see to it that your disahbility is corrected medically or in the alternative, I can see that it is ameliorated with a human proxy at your side. As for your being married to a Mexican, NO PROBLEM. We'll get him a nomination to the US Supreme Court and his ethnicity will be changed from Mexican to "a member of the Latin community", a much more benign moniker, don't you think?

But as to your core condition of being a Democrat I am afraid that all of the magic, political and religious pull, money, and modern technology-both current and in the forseeable future, there just ain't nuttin' we can do for you. It is sadly, terminal, and in the final analysis can only be made bearable by virtue of those around you recognizing its terrible effects on you and they professing their undying devotion to you by declaring that they too are, and in fact, have been, closet Democrats all along.

However, as strong as their true love and devotion may be, it is all the more practicable that these "loved ones" will instead choose to restore themselves to their right minds and leave you. This is NOT an indictment of their love for you, only the proof of their saneness.

Remember in the words of the old Negro commedian Chris Rock "I'm Black and I'm Rich and there ain't ONE wetback in this audiance that will trade places with me...NOT ONE!

You may not LIKE that fact Texas, but you cannot change it by aspiring to be the "moral compass" for those who SEE the dichotomy of of "gods" handiwork in a different light. (littlel g is correct)

How would that work?

A Jew is a member of the Jewish people, no matter his beliefs. A Jew who becomes a Christian is still a Jew. A Jewish atheist remains a Jew. A Jewish Muslim is a Jew. A Jew is the child of a Jewish mother or someone who converted to Judaism. But there is no way out.

-  Being in a relationship with a Mexican (or maybe it's just the fact that it's a mixed race relationship?)

I am always a bit confused about this race thing. Aren't Mexicans white?

I thought the potential bad thing with a relationship with a Mexican in the US might be that the spouse is likely poor and/or an illegal immigrant. I can see how that would be a bad thing.

It's not about mixed race relationship as such. I think "with a Chinese boyfriend" simply wouldn't create the same image.

I brought this joke to my very black friend.  She said she's not insulted one bit when it comes to jokes like this.  She actually thought it was funny. 

 She said she gets angry when it gets disrespectful like when you call black women "ho's" and stuff like that.

Know what the sad part is? A couple years back, I ran a short series of horribly, terribly racist, filthy and utterly tasteless jokes, which I, at various times in my life, had found utterly hilarious.
I held nothing back; I used words like "nigger", and "fag".....you get the picture. I even titled the series "Rightwinger's Offensive Joke of the Day"....should still be on here somewhere, I think, if you wanna take time and look it up.

The worst comment I remember getting was asking me if it was really necessary to use the epithets. Little Whip told the poster to read the title.+LOL+

This was meant to be a joke; a joke with roots that gave it a rather serious point, and some socio-political commentary, but a joke, nonetheless. It wasn't worth all the in-depth analysis.

And there's nothing wrong with Christians telling jokes, as long as no one is really hurt by them; and no one was, unless they were thin-skinned and easily-offended enough to >want< to be.

Well, yes and no; their race is Semitic; actually the same as Arabs and other Middle Easterners. The word "Jew", as I've always understood it, is kind of slang-ish. A bastardization of "Judaism", which is, of course, their faith. However, I could wrong.

It was probably, at some point in the distant past, used as an insult to them, kind of like calling members of the National Socialist German Worker's Party "Nazis". An unfortunately ironic analogy to use here, ESPECIALLY here, but an apt one, nonetheless. Or perhaps, maybe the way Eric Cartman taunts Kyle Broflofski is a better one.

Well, yes and no; their race is Semitic; actually the same as Arabs and other Middle Easterners.

It's a branch of a language family. "Race" doesn't really have any meaning in this context.

Aethiopians are "black", but they are Semites. Berbers are white, yet all of them live in Africa and always have. The only branch of the language family that is almost exlusively black is the Cushite branch (Somalis etc.).

 

The word "Jew", as I've always understood it, is kind of slang-ish. A bastardization of "Judaism", which is, of course, their faith. However, I could wrong.

Jew is the English version of Hebrew "Yehudi" which refers to an inhabitant of the former kingdom of Yehuda (Judaea) and such an inhabitant's descendants. The Kingdom Yehuda was inhabited by the Israelite tribes of Yehuda, Simeon, and Binyamin. The people of Israel consist (by Mosaic law and still recognised) of 12 tribes (and a priesthood) and the other 9 tribes lived in Samaria. One of those 9 tribes left for Egypt over 2500 years ago.

"Judaism" is the religion of the Kingdom of Judaea. The Kingdom of Samaria (the other 8 tribes) and the tribe who left (today's Ethiopian "Jews") have slightly different religions.

So the word "Jew" ultimately refers to a member of one of the Israelite tribes, technically to members of three of those tribes.

Non-Jewish Israelites still exist, including Indian "Jews", Ethiopean "Jews" and Samaritans in today's state of Israel. But 95% of Israelites are Jews (or of the priestly tribe) and hence the word "Jew" and "Israelite" can be used almost exchangeably, especially since all non-Jewish tribes except the Samaritans are today also "Jews" by conversion.

Numbers:

Bnei Menashe (India, descended from a northern tribe): 12,000
Jews (descended from the southern tribes): 13 million
Beta Yisrael (Ethipia, descended from tribe of Dan): 150,000
Samaritans (Israel, descended from northern tribes): 712

I've learned a long time ago here on JU that most of the time it's not the message but the messenger.  Very subjective. Because it's a certain person, they automatically take offense...but if it were someone else...well then; different story. 

 I've seen some say the same thing as I with little to no backlash.  You brought up LW.  I've seen it with her as well.  I could say the same thing as one of her friends or something similar and she would time and time again come after me and even encourage the other in what they wrote.  I saw the same here with this thread.   I'm sure if she were here now, she would have taken TW's side against me calling me a bad Christian or something even worse.  Maybe I am.  Maybe I shouldn't have put this here.  Maybe it did more harm than good?  Don't know but I find solace in the fact that some who fall under the ethnicity mentioned here were ok with the joke even laughing at it as my black friend here and Leauki, being a Jew. 

It was just a joke.  It was a political joke not an ethnic one.  Life is short and it's good to laugh once in a while even if it's good naturedly poking fun at one another.  It wasn't raunchy or vulger.   Let's not be so serious. 

In fact, this was kind of a test to see exactly what I would get for responses knowing the climate of late.  That's why I prefaced it with "hope you have a sense of humor." 

*shrugs* it's really still all about who you know and like, not what you write; more about subjectivity not objectivity.
