You can offend nearly ANY Eastern European by calling them gypsies. Romanians, Albanians, Serbians....

True enough. I think you'll only be able to say it once to a Romanian, though...
Someone told my Serbian buddy "You Russian Gypsies lost to Borat country!!" whatever year it was they lost to Kazakhstan in some fruity soccer thing. Fuck, I laughed.

Speaking of Eastern Europe... I can't recall hearing any reports if CoVid bent them over or grazed by.

I used to work with three Romanian dudes and a gypsy comment was sure to end any discussion. Two of them were good dudes.

Replace gypsie with Roma increases risk of death

I absolutely love using racist terms and knowing about their historian meaning.

How the fuck did this go into a racism discussion?

a) the previous comment was regarding a stereotype

b) italians are not a race

So what you are saying is that Gypsies are a race.

Maybe there's no such thing as race?

We need to love all ppl like we love all dogs. Does anyone see color when they look at a dog?

[msommers]

Most dogs I look at them and see a dog. But some are straight up rat-like and I get this urge to punt them LOL!

People cross the street when I walk my dogs... #blackdoglivesmatter

Most dogs I have had have been the most racist MF’s you have ever met

Why does the groomer charge more to wash my white male dog?

(Tongue firmly in cheek - pure sarcasm)

May have to do with going in under the auspices of being a brown dog not a white dog who's gone and rolled in the pig pen again

Back on topic, although I love these sidetracks. My cousin went for covid testing in Calgary on Sunday May 31. Was told to expect a phone call with the results in "2-5 days". Didn't get anything, and called in Friday afternoon to see. They promised a call back Saturday, and here it is Saturday June 6th at 4:45PM, and no call yet. I suspect they lost this test. Is AHS really this inept or what? Told cousin to just forget about it and go live her life. She feels fine, just felt shitty for one day last weekend.

Much like people, I don't have much tolerance for the assholes regardless what race/breed they are.

I think they told me they'd call with results in 2-5 days. A week later my GP called with the good news.

You might want to check with GP... Guessing AHS is overwhelmed.

[ExtraSlow]

what do you do, just call the GP every day? Seems like a weird process. I guess that's a plan for her on monday. Weirdly, she didn't get any feedback other than "wait for our call".
