I saw this great documentary once. It was titled Cool Runnings.

[–]NotVerySmarts 1 point2 points ago

Jah Mon. Doug E. Doug is a Jamaican Olympic hero.

[–]LtTomKazanski 2 points3 points ago

It had a great opening sequence, but it was mostly downhill from there.

[–]lando224 32 points33 points ago

Between Jamaicans and Kenyans, they pretty much have the whole spectrum of races covered.

[–]postsinsensitively 29 points30 points ago

lol awkward apologists are downvoting you. Guys, kenyans and jamaicans are shit hot at running. Deal with it.

[–]Light-Yagami 4 points5 points ago

Don't forget Ethiopians. They be runnin' from the tigers.

[–]asshat_backwards 9 points10 points ago

Yes. The many, many tigers in Ethiopia are a real source of concern.

[–]SilversunPickups 4 points5 points ago

The Ethiopian Tiger is the rarest of all the world's tigers.

[–]asshat_backwards 5 points6 points ago

Not quite as rare as the Somalian platypus. Try finding one of THOSE

[–]halfascoolashansolo 4 points5 points ago

Which explains the "yes", actually.

[–]korbonix 7 points8 points ago

Our american blacks aren't too good at 5 or 10k.

[–]postsinsensitively 19 points20 points ago

Jamaican me crazy with all that running

[–]diversionmary 11 points12 points ago

It's probably because they hate that race.

[–]Fallingdownwalls 5 points6 points ago

Because most African-Americans are of West African descent, people of that heritage dominate sprint racing whilst middle and long distance running is dominated by those of East African descent (you could actually get incredibly more specific for those disciplines really).

[–]mahi_1977 3 points4 points ago

And they hate 3k.....kkk

[–]Shamlezz 3 points4 points ago

I read this like we owned black people again.

At first I was like "how?"

Then came the realization that I need to call my black friend mike to see about purchasing him...

Not because I want a slave, but because he deserves good home.

Am I racist? No idea. I don't hate any rare or group of people, but I think that comedy related to skin color is humorous.

[–]Sir_FartAlot 11 points12 points ago

I feel like this person had a short-attention-spam and just read the question without analyzing it further ... please, someone prove me wrong!

[–]nicotinefit 7 points8 points ago

Or he said yes because black people love running. Ultimate troll.

[–]MissJinxed 7 points8 points ago

Yeah I think they just read the question but not the description.

[–]BreadstickNinja 17 points18 points ago

It's a guy, and his name is "Mr. Steal Y♥ Girl."

[–]evoken1 7 points8 points ago

Classy.

[–]Daemon_of_Mail 6 points7 points ago

Commenting prematurely before reading the subtext -- It reminded me of being on /r/politics.

[–]cockywocky 6 points7 points ago

She knew it was a joke, but she still couldn't get past the chip on her shoulder.

[–]Danny_Plainview 7 points8 points ago

That black person refusing to get the light hearted joke and just responding with a serious "yes" irritates me for some reason.

[–]IRCZT 2 points3 points ago

It's ok to speak the truth and not worry about being excessively "pc" sometimes.

[–]whatlauradid 185 points186 points ago

My parents are mixed race. My dad prefers the 100m and my mother is Pakistani.

[–]CTRL_ALT_RAPE 17 points18 points ago

No girl has ever said that... drunken me on the other hand;

"Oops... my zipper is undone and ....would you look at what came out?"

[–]panzerschrekk 3 points4 points ago

guaranteed success.

[–]SmartViking 6 points7 points ago

That image is only 3.2 kB in size, that's what it takes to represent 1600 characters of Unicode (16 bits/char). Say what you want about JPEG compression but it is pretty impressive.

The original image was 89.9 kB which already is very little, but still 22 times more spacious than this one.

[–]arch4ngel 12 points13 points ago

As I always say, use the image format you need for the specific usage.

Photography? JPG will do.

Screenshots? PNG is necessary.

Looped porn without sound? GIF. Definitely a GIF.

[–]luchs 2 points3 points ago

APNG? :(

[–]SupermanV2 451 points452 points ago

[–]NotaMethAddict 162 points163 points ago

Coincidentally, I feel the same way looking at a joke this old.

[–]SupermanV2 139 points140 points ago

What? I genuinely believed I thought that one up on my own.

I am not a unique snowflake.

[–]NotaMethAddict 140 points141 points ago

I meant the OP. You're still a unique snowflake

[–]SupermanV2 15 points16 points ago

Gotta love the Coen brothers. You should check out Fargo.

Who hasn't checked out Fargo? =D

[–]Amunium 19 points20 points ago

I haven't. AMA.

So I take it I should?

[–]lshevtsov 3 points4 points ago

Thank you good sir, I will trust your reliable opinion.

[–]TheIrishRazor 16 points17 points ago

Burn After Reading.

[–]Hedegaard 5 points6 points ago

based on evidence presented here I believe it is Burn After Reading....

[–]Habadasher 5 points6 points ago

Burn after reading. Great movie. Edit: Never mind, three others beat me to it.

[–]utopianfiat 5 points6 points ago

Battletoads.

[–]SoloJones 2 points3 points ago

I can't read it there's a pixel in the way.

[–]Zagorath 2 points3 points ago

Yeah... Imgur takes PNG images, ever screenshot tool I've ever used exports PNG images.

So why do we get this horrible JPEG?

[–]atcoyou 21 points22 points ago

I think I have been on /r/running too long, saw this coming a mile away.
cough

[–]chronodestroyer 15 points16 points ago

Your cough sounds bad. Do you have a runny nose too?

[–]HPLaserJetP1035 7 points8 points ago

Try not to let it get away from you!

[–]Ayavaron 35 points36 points ago

If you wanna get out of jury duty, the trick is to say you're prejudiced against all races.

[–]whatlauradid 50 points51 points ago

"I don't really think it's fair for me to be on a jury because I can read thoughts. "

[–]science87 23 points24 points ago

Oh man I envy you, I was born with the ability to read farts, it's not paying off anywhere near as well.

[–]Eulenspiegel74 12 points13 points ago

"Rincewind had always been happy to think of himself as a racist. The One Hundred Meters, the Mile, the Marathon — he'd run them all. Later, when he learned with some surprise what the word actually meant, he'd been equally certain he wasn't one. He was a person who divided the world quite simply into people who were trying to kill him and people who weren't. That didn't leave much room for fine details like what colour anyone was."

[–]Nakedp00per 2 points3 points ago

Had to do an Ctrl F but I knew I would find this quote buried in here somewhere.

[–]jmurphy1989 27 points28 points ago

[–]IrregardingGrammar 11 points12 points ago

An insightful "yes" from Mr. Steal Y♥ Girl.

[–]N0V0w3ls 5 points6 points ago

No, Zerg is just an awful race that needs to be eradicated.

[–]speqter 2 points3 points ago

But Terran is sooo overpowered! I hate that race!

[–]N0V0w3ls 3 points4 points ago

OK, fine, can we just agree that Protoss is the master race?

[–]bloomyself 6 points7 points ago

I think some races should have their own drinking fountains. For the thirsty runners.

[–]Paner 9 points10 points ago

Can someone explain this? I dont get it :O

(Maybe because my native language is not english)

[–]jpaveck 12 points13 points ago

it's funny because he's talking about racing (running), not about race as a biological thing (asians, black, jews, etc)

5k = 5 kilometers 10k = 10 kilometers

[–]Paner 9 points10 points ago

I actually laughed hard, thanks

[–]dja0794 5 points6 points ago

"Race" can mean multiple things. It could be a person's ethnicity (black, white, asian, middle eastern, whatever) or it could also mean a race that you run/walk/drive/ride bikes in in (things like marathons, track and field events, NASCAR, tour de france, etc...)

The way that the question was titled made it appear as if he was asking if it was okay to be racist. However, the description clarifed that rather than hating one ethnicity, he hated the 10k distance but not the 5k distance.

He just tricked you into thinking that his question was incredibly offensive, but instead was quite normal.

[–]the_confused 78 points79 points ago

Reposting bad compressed screenshots of Yahoo Answers is really the lowest /r/funny can get

[–]Timett_son_of_Timett 10 points11 points ago

i always though ecards were the lowest... till they got banned at least :/

[–]One_More_Comment 36 points37 points ago

I dunno. I thought this was pretty funny.

[–]DarknessFallsOverUs 1 point2 points ago

[–]hokie47 0 points1 point ago

I say anything more than a 5k is showing off.

[–]anonymoustroll 1 point2 points ago

Ok... it should probably be mentioned here that "race" is not defined as a taxonomic rank in the zoological phylum.

As such, "race" is a purely bullshit invention that is designed to divide humans for the purpose of conquering them.

[–]Spudymo 1 point2 points ago

He is raceist.

[–]MagicMurderBean 2 points3 points ago

The moron who just typed "Yes".. I knew there'd be at least one. It's yahoo answers, and some dumb fuckin yahoo will answer.

[–]Farisr9k 9 points10 points ago

Karmadecay isn't bringing up anything but I can assure you: every pixel signifies another repost of this image.

[–]MapleSyrupIsAwesome 3 points4 points ago

That is not how pixels work.

[–]somerandomguy02 6 points7 points ago

I hate all races. Does that make me a bad person?

[–]JackPrince 52 points53 points ago

No, maybe just fat

[–]Hawkknight88 3 points4 points ago

No - just cliche.

[–]Oafah 48 points49 points ago

It depends. If you're white, running 5k is called a race. If you're black, it's called fleeing from police.

I'll show myself out.

[–]Arizhel 18 points19 points ago

When the police are like the LAPD, the black people have a good reason to run, regardless of whether they actually did anything or not.

[–]whatshenanigans 15 points16 points ago

that's not even clever...

[–]das_uberdog 56 points57 points ago

That was hilarious 'cuz black people are far more likely to have trouble with the legal system than white people and that's not a national tragedy or anything.

[–]coolstorybroham 70 points71 points ago

So clever and original.

[–]JSBUCK 139 points140 points ago

[–]atleast5letters 22 points23 points ago

I find racism hilarious.

Edit: Even more so the 20th time around.

[–]iluvgoodburger 8 points9 points ago

I could take or leave the racism, I just like how all the jokes are repeated and interchangeable. I'm really really powerfully unintelligent, so it helps a lot when my jokes all have the same punch line.

[–]Zagorath 3 points4 points ago

I really like the play on words, but this has been done on Yahoo Answers many times before.

I find it interesting to see the different responses from the answerers. Sometimes they realise it's a deliberate play on words, sometimes they seem confused by it.

[–]tossedsaladandscram 0 points1 point ago

[–]dzubz 0 points1 point ago

It's still racist if he hasn't tried it because he is judging a race before attempting it. That is prejudice.

[–]Sepulchural 1 point2 points ago

Actually seriously, I agree with the guy who asked that question, I used to run races and was on a team. I loved the 5K as it was short and sweet and easy to do, but because of my own lack of athleticism, I hated the 10K. I hate that race!!!! Well, hate is a strong word. Let's just say if a 10K shows up to apply for a job at my office, I automatically pre-judge it.
