Members telephant Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 I love it when people front like they're decent guitarists, but dont have any clips to back up their {censored} talking. Funny how that works, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sethlover Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 Does anyone see the humour in a bunch of white guys arguing over the merits of BB King? Do you have some sort of crystal ball or something? A bunch of white guys? Who said anyone here or all here are white? And if they all were what would be the humor in that? A lot of black artists have been influenced by white music and musicians, B.B. King being one of them. So I don't get your statement, it sounds pretty lame and misinformed.

So I don't get your statement, it sounds pretty lame and misinformed. Oh really? I'll bet 85% of the people posting here are white, and I'll only give you the 15% because this is a music forum. For what it's worth, I can also find humour in your hostility! What gives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members p3dalwh0re Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 Where are you getting these percentages from? "eMarketer estimates that African Americans will make up 11.8% of all US Internet users in 2011, up from 10.8% in 2006." Google is your friend. Nielsen, and marketing organizations, have demographics out the wazoo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sethlover Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 For what it's worth, I can also find humour in your hostility! What gives? Well then you need to break it down as to what you meant by "the humour in a bunch of white guys arguing over the merits of BB King?" for me. What gives is this, let's say for kicks this was a forum all about country western music, musicians that play country western have been known to be predominately white, yes?But let's say for the sake of argument that most of that forum members where black. How would this sound in the context of that forum...? "Does anyone see the humor in a bunch of black guys arguing over the merits of country western music?" You could change up that scenario to what ever you like but it all comes out sounding the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members p3dalwh0re Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 We have differing senses of humour. A bunch of black guys disecting country western music is excellent source material for sketch comedy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members p3dalwh0re Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 I'm not really sure what I should be apologizing for - you asked for stats, I gave you stats. We disagree on what is or is not an amusing scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members echodeluxe Posted December 5, 2007 Members Share Posted December 5, 2007 It's okay, he'll probably die soon anyway.And if you're white, then you can have the satisfaction of knowing that your ancestors probably made his ancestors pick stuff, maybe.

Excuse me? That's an awful thing to say! I'm reasonably well educated and have no racial bias; I've already stated that the situation would be amusing to me in either direction, and I'm basing my comments on the demographic facts. I think we're done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
