It’s a racist joke.

“What is it with you people?” White man asks black man and woman.
“What do you mean ‘you people?’” Black man responds, referring to white man’s racism, which isn’t really racism. White man merely wants to know what is it with those two people.

Thus, we get, “What do you mean ‘You people?’” as in you look down on us.

It be a joke. I’m sure someone else has heard this before.

EDIT: Took me four edits just to get that last sentence correct. I must be tired. Btw, it was also a twist on the idea that we never cease to amaze you, as in I took what you said in the worst possible way (in a sense), which would amaze you, thus continuing to never cease to amaze you. Get it?

I thought of Tropic Thunder >_>

You, sir, deserve a cookie.

So do you, Cloud. That would’ve been funny.

thanks Swan

No problem.

I’ve been posting a lot in the last…36 hours, haven’t I…huh.

IT HAS TEH WHIPPED CREAM! Epic enough.

…I’ve been posting a lot too. It’s like what I do to fill time now, I jump between here and my CSS clan posting stuff. Over there we just had a conversation about the <3 hearts, and how they look like ice cream cones… and/or boobie cones that have fallen over.

[s123i68]

…That actually makes sense.

Are you kidding me? Platypuses are awesome.

1. They have 4-headed penises.
2. The males have a venomous barb that can kill a dog or knock out a human.
3. They don’t have nipples, but rather sweat milk into pools on their stomach, that their offspring then drink.
4. They lay eggs, but develop them inside their bodies for 30 days first, with only 10 days spent outside the body.
5. They have bills.
6. They can sense electrical charges.

What can a flamingo do?

1. Look funny and eat with its head upside-down in the dirt underwater.

They turn pink if they eat shrimp. That is cooler than Michael jackson playing with little naked boys.

…

That flamingo is bloody adorable. Freaking hilarious angle.

That said, this topic is going waaaay off-topic.

Either discuss the flamingo, or I shall cast it to the pits of Hades.

Additionally, I can’t help but notice that the filename is Phoenicopteridae. I presume that’s its scientific name…

Phoenicopter.

That just makes me think of a phoenix with propellers, or maybe its wings spinning around and around. >_>

Your moderation notice comes only 9 days late. Well done!

Apparently, though, there are a number of phoenicopters. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treron_phoenicoptera
Weird.

Ack! Did I really forget to check posting dates again? >_<

Man, I’m off my game lately.
