+905 When a black person is mad, they're still black. If a white person is mad, they're red. If a black person is sick, they're still black. If a white person is sick, they're green. If a black person is choking, they're still black. If a white person is choking, they're blue. So why are black people 'colored'? amirite?

Black people's lips turn blue when they're choking too. Also something about their fingertips.

The word "colored" isn't meant to suggest that white people don't have colored skin, just that non-white people have darker skin. You'll enjoy life more if you don't take things so literally. Have a nice day. <3

My fingertips turn blue when I get really cold, and the very tip of my nose reddens.

Oh, and once I fell asleep with a rubberband around my finger and it turned an awfully funky colour.

Ironically, neither black nor white are considered colors. As I understand it, they're shades. Well, I guess it's more complicated than that. IT depends on if you're talking about light or pigments. And right now I have no idea what I'm talking about.

Most "black" people aren't even actually black. And if you want to know why black people are called "black" then ask some of those white people who gave them that title.

I think most of them are dead. Unless you go "deep into the heart of the south".

most "white" people aren't white either. I would like to know what genius decided to pick these colours

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yeah me too. A smart person would have picked something "logical" like dark brown and peach or something like that.

i turn red when im nervous or embarrased, and my lips turn blue/purple when im super cold, but i don't think people actually turn green.

This is extremely similar to a famous French poem.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

When a white person is sick, they don't turn green. They turn even whiter.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

'Black' people aren't even black. Their skin is brown. Honestly if I were African American then I would be offended to be called 'Black' because African Americans have brown skin.
