The John Woo cat attack seems out of place in this collection.

This was a figurine that my sophomore roommate in college had. He had all these collections of Germanic figurines most of them trolls with ridiculously racist faces. He was a creepy creepy kid.

I think snus is a little different than bandits in the treatment of the tobacco, though the main "benefit" of not having to spit has more to do with where you put in in your mouth, I think.

The more important question for me is whether you can brew a better tea with imported Swedish snus or bandits.  Frankly, I think that bandits have a more robust and rounded flavor, particularly when cut with lemon.  Though I'm moving more towards just using regular Copenhagen and a tea ball.

Questions:

1. How is this racist, and against whom?

2. Did you steal it from him?

3. Are you still friends?

1. This one isn't racist. There are other ones that so obviously supposed to be stereotypes of Jewish people and the fact that they're from Germany makes it even more uncomfortable.

2. I did not. I was afraid that the doll was going to come to life and murder me in my sleep for my wallet and then go buy some H. I just didn't want to take that chance.

3. Not anymore. We stayed friends for a year or two after our sophomore year. He was the kind of kid who at first seems super normal and cool. And then you'd go back to his room and he has Spongebob lamps and sheets and car seat covers. And collections of every single kind of video game paraphenalia. He constnatly went to swap meets and bought crap. But when we lived together he had a 72" TV, an xbox 360, a PS3 and a Wii. So you take the good and you take the bad. Then you get the Facts of life.

There's nothing wrong with Spongebob. I have a Spongebob pillow.*

I agree, it's not a bad cartoon for what it is. But this was a 20 year old male decked out with a room that looked like he was ten. I don't know, I find myself being too hard on the guy. He was a nice kid overall. He just had some obsessions that got too big to overcome.

Clearly it's racist against Klaus Kinski.
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.
