Juneteenth

Vermont just recognized Juneteenth as a holiday so I do not have to work tomorrow! What are all of you doing to celebrate?

Here is a cute story about a woman who gave out watermelon flavored Jolly Ranchers to her coworkers. I think that was really thoughtful but some folks apparently thought it was demeaning. I will never understand the nigra mentality.

Now where was I? ahhh yes, Stacy places a piece of Jolly Rancher candy on my desk. And says “Happy Juneteenth”, and walks on to continue her candy distribution. Being that Stacy and I had never exchanged words outside of “Hello” or “goodbye”, I was completely caught off guard by her actions. A small smile crept onto my face. That is, until I looked at the wrapper on the candy. I read it and was taken aback. I got up to find Stacy to look in her basket to see if what I got was a coincidence. It was not. There were an array of different size Jolly Ranchers in her basket. There were suckers. There were the long flat bars. There were the traditional small nuggets. But all the shapes and sizes yielded only one flavor. WATERMELON. Juneteenth. A woman that never talks to me. Watermelon candy. “Happy Juneteenth”? She may as well have given me a banana. She should have just given me a coupon to Popeye’s or Church’s or both.

Goodness, Miss Roberta, look at that greedy Nigress. Oh, no, a piece of candy isn't enough. Now, she wants a banana, AND coupons to Popeye's AND Church's Chicken!!

I suppose that's what they call "reparations"!

Re: Juneteenth

Yes, we should have a special day, all right. We should have a special day of repentance for presuming to replace God's holy and perfect labor laws with a bunch of lie-beral twaddle about "emancipation."

Re: Juneteenth

Why do beaners and Nigs insist on having "special" days? here in GOD'S Favorite County America. What have they done to deserve one.

WARNING: If it has dark skin it feels entitled, is greedy is an ingrate and insists on hand-outs

I'm not familiar with Popeye's or Church's (although I have set foot in an actual Church; I doubt the uppity negro can say the same). Do they just serve fried chicken, malt liquor, and crack?

Well, one thing's for sure: If the power-crazed jigaboo Osambo manages to steal this election, Juneteenth will doubtlessly become a national holiday. Along with Malcolm X's birthday, Louis Farrakhan's birthday, Huey Newton's birthday, Kobe Bryant's birthday, and the anniversary of the first time MLK ever raped a white woman.

ETA: Wow, I just realised the ungrateful darkie in this story is called Jeremy Biggers. Should Biggers be added to the official list of GOP-approved code words?

It's a good day to stay at home, lock the windows and doors, and clean your husband's guns on.

I have no husband, so I expect I'll clean my own guns.

Hmm. Might best make it a long weekend.

I guess if Obsamo gets elected the 4th of July will be history!

Hmph! "End of slavery in the Southwest," indeed. It's more like the beginning of the white man's burden.

In negro vernacular a "teenth" is slang for about 1.25 grams of illicit tobacco. June is a month. The phrase "Juneteenth" is a wordplay that refers to a festival in June where the Negros would smoke unregulated tobacco. This year following many criminal activities selling "loosies" by members of the urban community, the Juneteenth festival is to be a quiet time for reflection at home and so the peaceful political rallies planned well in advance by the President in Oklahoma won't be disrupted.
