Just eat it, man. Relish in the stereotype!

[–]prannisment 104 points105 points ago

I didn't know relish was part of the stereotype...

[–]teuast 1 point2 points ago

Me too.

[–]SecondSophistic 2 points3 points ago

The depressing part of this video is the last one, which has actually become a real stereotype rather than a joke one...

[–]elbruce 23 points24 points ago

Apparently, Afro-American people enjoy delicious food, good music, and sex. Somehow bigots have managed to make them feel ashamed of these traits.

[–]MrJAPoe 9 points10 points ago

I implore those people to find someone that doesn't enjoy those things

[–]elbruce 19 points20 points ago

Also, apparently Jews are fond of money. How dare they!

[–]AnViLLiaN- 11 points12 points ago

And those Swedes love coffee and are naturally good looking... I, who am I kidding nobody dislikes swedes.

[–]elbruce 7 points8 points ago

Ha! Those coffee swilling gold-head nord-monkeys... typical. Why don't you go engineer something, borkbork!

[–]Bjoernzor 0 points1 point ago

And the Danes.....and the Norwegians

[–]seamouse 1 point2 points ago

The stereotype is mostly true, but it shouldn't make them feel ashamed. But it's not as simple as "everyone loves fried chicken" or "everybody likes music," and how those tastes manifest themselves are self-evident if you've ever lived in and out of predominantly black communities.

[–]elbruce 1 point2 points ago

I'm sorry, but it is a universally objective fact that fried chicken and watermelon are two of the most delicious things in the universe. If you don't agree, then you have no taste buds. This is not something that varies by race.

[–]RalphiesBoogers 3 points4 points ago

I think I've seen that combination on chopped.

[–]AnAge_OldProb 45 points46 points ago

I was at a restaurant with a black friend and a bunch of white friends. My black friend orders fried chicken and watermelon on the side. We (the white people) kind look at each other nervously, thinking "is it ok to make a joke?" He (the black guy) feels the tension in the air looks back at us after handing the waitress his menu and says, "What? Some stereotypes are delicious."

[–]teuast 7 points8 points ago

I'm Irish and corned beef is awesome. But no one was making that joke, so I guess it's okay.

[–]junoh[S] 2 points3 points ago

i have a little irish on my mom's side, and i concur, corned beef is awesome.

[–]Lunakhris 0 points1 point ago

If he is my friend theres no way im holding back from making that joke!!

[–]PatAunces 18 points19 points ago

Man, I work at a grocery store, and the number of black people who buy fried chicken and watermelon is actually really high. Like, it's very common, and I have to pretend like I don't notice.

Then again, the number of white people who buy mayonnaise and ketchup, the food of my people, is also really high.

[–]pinkybones 5 points6 points ago

I thought everyone liked mayo and ketchup? Oh god, I'm too deep into my own whiteness to even know which stereotypes I'm perpetuating.

[–]bitparity 14 points15 points ago

Agreed! I'm asian and @#$% other drivers!

[–]LeonardNemoysHead 14 points15 points ago

I had a friend get out of a ticket once by saying "I'm an Asian woman, what did you expect?"

[–]teuast 8 points9 points ago

I find that implausible.

[–]Dymodeus 10 points11 points ago

She had large breasts.

[–]teuast 20 points21 points ago

That's even more so.

[–]pandabearknifefight 8 points9 points ago

IMPLAUSIBRU!

[–]LeonardNemoysHead 2 points3 points ago

He probably would have let her off with a warning anyway.

[–]teuast 2 points3 points ago

Yeah. If you can't laugh at yourself, you need to lighten up.

[–]strawberryberet 51 points52 points ago

It's unfortunate that such stereotypes have to ruin some of the best food out there. Watermelon is delicious. Fried chicken is delicious. No one should feel shame in enjoying these gifts from the food gods.

[–]Wworkin 59 points60 points ago

You know who likes fried chicken and watermelon? Black people.

You know who else likes fried chicken and watermelon? Everyone, that shit is delicious

[–]moscova89 19 points20 points ago

But I don't like watermelon...

[–]Wworkin 31 points32 points ago

You must be a parrot or something

[–]Respondir 6 points7 points ago

And I'm a vegetarian (Therefor, no chicken, fried or otherwise).

It's okay friend.

[–]pseudolobster 11 points12 points ago

Still, you must be aware it's delicious.

[–]Bit_Chewy 3 points4 points ago

It's ok - it's not real chicken.

[–]dumnezero 2 points3 points ago

[–]LeonardNemoysHead 2 points3 points ago

[–]Bazing1980 3 points4 points ago

Fabrice, Fabrice. The name so nice you say it, again.

[–]seamouse 1 point2 points ago

But they don't have the same cultural significance. Go to a Church's or Popeye's in a black community, and there is a difference. There's nothing wrong with noticing different cultural habits, and we don't have to pretend we're all the same. I could say "who doesn't like [steaks][burgers][bbq][soul food][fried chicken][pizza]" and so on, but that doesn't mean certain cultures take after some things more than others. You're not going to find a Roscoe's house of Chicken and Waffles or Harold's Chicken Shack in the suburbs.

[–]th3shark 1 point2 points ago

That's exactly how I feel

[–]Kilgannon_TheCrowing 2 points3 points ago

Lol what are you talking about? I eat the fuck out of watermelon and fried chicken, and I don't feel shame. That shit is good! If you don't like chicken, there is something wrong with YOU!

[–]patio87 1 point2 points ago

Watermelon > fried chicken.

[–]junoh[S] 1 point2 points ago

i agree. i don't eat fried food much, but watermelon is the only fruit where you can just sink your teeth and indulge in it.

[–]FokJulleNaaiers 99 points100 points ago

That's also MFW I was the only white guy at my black best friend's bbq wondering if I should ask why everyone was staying in the shallow end of his giant pool. I eventually asked & what quickly followed was "black people can't swim, that ain't a stereotype!"

[–]VonKressenstein 42 points43 points ago

To think of all the money that was wasted on chains on the slave boats...

[–]Linkisnsfw 19 points20 points ago

I thought black guys liked wearing chains?

[–]Jaunzems 10 points11 points ago

But this is brilliant! Minibar on-the-go!

[–]LeonardNemoysHead 3 points4 points ago

I'd totally wear a Singapore Sling.

I wouldn't drink it, though, because they're disgusting.

[–]seamouse 4 points5 points ago

That is actually a reason why some African Americans wear chains. In Mr. T's case, he would sometimes sleep with his heavy chains and bracelets on, '"to see how [his] ancestors, who were slaves, felt."

[–]qwerty0805 -2 points-1 points ago

Thats not how mfw works

[–]Bgdojo 41 points42 points ago

Ha, this is the worst! Happened to me at a picnic a couple weeks back. Here is a tip, if it is cut up into squares and mixed with other fruit, go for it.

If it is the handheld, eat it like a typewriter, be prepared to called "buckwheat" for the rest of your natural life.

[–]junoh[S] 46 points47 points ago

[–]thirdeyevision 9 points10 points ago

ahh, seth macfarlane's joke overuse is so pleasant and refreshing

[–]Aedan91 2 points3 points ago

More than overuse I would say that's part of a James Wood's character joke. Even Peter says they are repeating the thing.

[–]procrastinating_atm 1 point2 points ago

Did you spend extra time finding the shittiest quality uploads possible?

[–]anonymous123421 5 points6 points ago

Quite the opposite, really. I spend no time to just find the first uploads, which happen to be shitty quality. Deal with it.

[–]procrastinating_atm 1 point2 points ago

I see what you did there...

[–]Sparkdog 1 point2 points ago

Did you miss the part where they point out and ridicule the fact that it was the exact same bit from the last episode?

[–]RGT42 6 points7 points ago

Everyone likes watermelon. I don't understand why it's a stereotype. Don't let the stereotypes make you their bitch and keep you from eating delicious food!

[–]theBMB 6 points7 points ago

I would not hesitate, anyone who says the don't like watermelon is a dirty liar. Fried chicken too, shit's delicious.

[–]GroupDrink 5 points6 points ago

Chappelle?

[–]bobzmccormick 6 points7 points ago

Sorry I TRULY hate watermelon. Fried chicken, on the other hand...

[–]mamjjasond 5 points6 points ago

same here. just the smell of watermelon makes me feel bad.

fried chicken on the other hand ....

[–]mr_styx 4 points5 points ago

fried chicken on the other hand

[–]Floaticola 0 points1 point ago

So which hand is it on now?

[–]theBMB 3 points4 points ago

LIAR

[–]bobzmccormick 2 points3 points ago

I can't stand the watery taste, the texture makes me gag, I just can't stand it. I prefer strong, tangy fruits like pineapple and peach. Watermelon reminds me a lot of tomato, which I also despise.

[–]patio87 1 point2 points ago

I'm not a fried chicken fan. I like fried chicken fingers/nuggets/wings, but not a fan of fried chicekn breast/legs/thighs from KFC, Popeyes, etc.

[–]theBMB 2 points3 points ago

but you still like fried chicken

[–]patio87 1 point2 points ago

Yeah, but I'm just talking about the stereotypical bucket of chicken.

[–]Scarjaka 1 point2 points ago

I don't care for watermelon.

However, chicken is my favorite food, so I guess that makes up for it.

[–]kinboy 5 points6 points ago

Im mixed so I have this look all the damn time haha.

[–]awumpa 10 points11 points ago

This gif is a lot less funny in this context if you've ever seen the episode.

[–]junoh[S] 6 points7 points ago

link for the lazy?

[–]awumpa 26 points27 points ago

I'll just give a quick explanation.

So larry really likes this Palestinian chicken place and is having sexual relations with a Palestinian woman who goes there but the new location is opening next to a jewish deli. The jews are protesting and so are the Palestinians, he is confused to which side he should join; on one side are all his (jewish) friends and the other this Palestinian girl promising him the best sex ever.

[–]now_in3D 2 points3 points ago

definitely one of my favourite episodes

[–]Forgetheriver 1 point2 points ago

Name of the actress...?

Er, for science?

[–]awumpa 8 points9 points ago

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0619549/

Pretty sure this is her.

[–]Manofonemind 15 points16 points ago

Palestinians win. Flawless victory.

[–]awumpa 21 points22 points ago

Shara: [Dirty talk while having sex with Larry David] "Fuck me you fucking Jew! You Zionist pig. You occupying fuck. Occupy this. I'm going to going to fuck the Jew out of you. You want to fuck me like Israel fucks my country? Fuck me you Jew bastard! Fuck me like Israel fucks my people! Show me the promised land. You circumcised fuck!"

[–]Torleep 3 points4 points ago

I find this easy to fap to.

[–]SatyrMex 2 points3 points ago

Half black half mexican here. This reminded me a lot of an ex girlfriend. White chick from Arizona. Her family was hardcore Arpaio supporters

It was weird. Great sex, but weird.

[–]pez319 2 points3 points ago

Just for clarification, the actress is Armenian.

[–]LeonardNemoysHead 3 points4 points ago

Canadian of Armenian descent. Sorry.

[–]StifmeisterBry 3 points4 points ago

[–]illegal_deagle 1 point2 points ago

Alternate title: "How I feel as a black guy when I'm at a picnic and see the Palestinian fried chicken"

[–]dsoltesz 3 points4 points ago

Everybody fucking loves watermelon. I'd look at ya funny if you didn't eat it.

[–]WhereYouChumFrom 12 points13 points ago

[–]FancySack 2 points3 points ago

"Look at him, he loves it..."

[–]refinedbear351 2 points3 points ago

As a black guy, it's actually more of Honeydew melons for me. I LOVE those.

[–]dan2737 2 points3 points ago

Are melons part of the stereotype too?

[–]refinedbear351 1 point2 points ago

I'd say that watermelons are the main stereotype but I still think that if I were sitting outside eating a honeydew (which i do sometimes ) and someone fond of stereotypes and who didn't know the difference walked by, they'd think "melon" + "black person" = "of course."

[–]dan2737 0 points1 point ago

It's probably pretty frustrating trying to avoid stereotypes like that when they're as simple as eating fruit.

[–]PoptartWithoutIcing 2 points3 points ago

I worked at McDonald's in high school. We had this running game where we had to guess the race of the person in the drive-thru based on their order. Drink orders were usually the giveaway.

[–]junoh[S] 1 point2 points ago

blacks love their hi-c.

[–]hahaloldam 2 points3 points ago

i am black. i see watermelon. i effin' eat.

water melons are awesome. it satisfies Both hunger and thirst AT THE same freaking TIME.

that's gotta to be up with turning water into wine mine man.

[–]sh2248 2 points3 points ago

Is there anyone else that doesn't know about this stereotype

[–]skekze 0 points1 point ago

I don't get Larry David. It's like anti-humor.

[–]knytrix 0 points1 point ago

Man, fuck that. Watermelon is fucking awesome. It's bullshit that white people made it a "black" thing. It's like saying "Vipers are for gooks" or other such shit. Watermelon doesn't give a shit what color you are...it's awesome. I'm white and I promise you, I've eaten more watermelon than you could imagine. Also, more fried chicken. It's not a "black" food... it's a fucking delicious food. Blacks shouldn't feel ashamed that they were open to admit that properly fried chicken is about as good as it gets.

I guess I don't know how to say this: food stereotypes are for idiots. There's a reason people like certain foods... it's because it's fucking AWESOME!.

You think the French are ashamed of their food? Mexicans are supposed to be ashamed of ceviche? Why should our southern brothers be ashamed of their chicken and rice?

Oh, I know why, Republicans are fucking assholes.

[–]RouseHouse1013 1 point2 points ago

Go for it! I still dance awkwardly at clubs, but it might be the alcohol helping me.

[–]Mogarf 1 point2 points ago

I for one am not fully understanding of this stereotype. Doesn't EVERYONE love watermelon?

[–]gaslacktus 1 point2 points ago

I grew up in the south mildly allergic to watermelon. Everyone down there looks at you like you're fucking insane if you turn down watermelon.

[–]InsertRelevantMeme 1 point2 points ago

[–]scherzox 1 point2 points ago

I need proof. Proof pic or this post is doubly racist.... yet still funny.

[–]Am_no_longer_lurking 1 point2 points ago

Going to post my response to the thread here. Doubt you'll get to it any other way.

Just go for it, bro. If anyone looks at you with a cocky shit eating grin, just smile at them and laugh. Your laugh will set them off so they'll laugh too. Afterwords, tell them to go fuck themselves. Walk away with your spoils of war, and savor your well earned feast.

That, or, you know, just don't give a fuck about stereotypes. People will find it amusing at first, then they'll realize that it's a fucking stupid stereotype since watermelon is ambrosia worthy of the Gods.

[–]junoh[S] 1 point2 points ago

everyone is saying "dude, don't be scared, just eat it!" i did eat it and had no problem.

i don't let stereotypes ever get to me, especially ones as trivial as this.

i just thought it would be a funny post.

[–]Am_no_longer_lurking 0 points1 point ago

It was a funny post, don't worry. Sorry for repeating what hundreds of others have said though. Well, whatever. Best of luck in life, bro.

[–]SKREAM 1 point2 points ago

It'd be weird if you didn't eat it, aint nobody turning down free watermelon.

[–]noNoParts 1 point2 points ago

I thought the title was, "as a black guy, seeing a nasty looking watermelon at a white friend's barbecue."

[–]PPpwnz 1 point2 points ago

I'll never understand why watermelon and fried chicken are stereotypical foods; who doesn't love either one of those things?

[–]Blueberry_Yum_Yum 1 point2 points ago

You're already at a BBQ. Hence the racial stereotype that black people like ribs. Actually, who the hell doesn't like ribs?

[–]EvilIrishBastard 1 point2 points ago

Don't fret man. Seriously. My wife is Chinese and we both loves some ribs.

My feeling is that all of my black, white and yellow brothers and sisters need to get together and slow cook some delirious pork together. Eat, drink and have a good time.

[–]CultFusion 1 point2 points ago

Do people that fall into typical stereotypes often try and not play the part when they're around other cultures?

[–]pingwing 1 point2 points ago

nomnomnomnomnomnomnomnomnomnom

[–]BLamp 1 point2 points ago

It's probably too late to tell this, but I work on a produce farm, and currently, we're picking watermelons. Part of the job is making deliveries to stores and usually it's through the front door where customers enter and exit. We get the usual person asking to buy some, (which we can't sell ourselves, because we are stealing the stores profits in front of them) but you wouldn't believe how excited some black people get when they see a truckload of huge watermelons. This one time, a black guy got way to enthusiastic about them and you could tell his other two black friends were getting pissed he was a living stereotype. Best part of the experience was when they walk away and my boss (old farmer) mumbles "damn jigaboos." It's hard to unload watermelons when you're trying not to laugh.
