[06:46] <zipper> I found this hilarious song on the internet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxEweP2TiMk
[06:46] <zipper> and I want it to share it with a south african guy
[06:46] <zipper> but he's much older than me
[06:46] <zipper> and I really respect him and would not want to piss him off
[06:46] <zipper> Is that song offensive in SA?
[06:48] <zipper> "Spitting Image - I've Never Met A Nice South African"
[07:51] <chesedo> zipper: well, it stereotypes both blacks and whites negatively... seems to me like some ausie trying to be funny... then again from the comments I see that the video is older than I am, so maybe i am just not getting it...
[07:53] <zipper> chesedo: My logic is that if both are steroetyped then it's ok, no?
[07:55] <zipper> chesedo: The video is just funny imo
[07:55] <zipper> That there are no nice south africans
[07:55] <zipper> but it's apertheid satire
[08:51] <chesedo> whatever rocks your boat...
[08:55] <chesedo> as a south african, i just know that a most of us are hoping for the day when fellow south africans do not see color as the first thing when they look at others and then drawing dividing lines based on the color they see
[09:39] <zipper> chesedo: Based on your reaction I should probably keep that video away from south africans
[09:40] <chesedo> zipper: good idea... from most at least :D
[09:42] <chesedo> there is one thing that all south africans have in common - being proud of being South African
[09:42] <chesedo> so i guess we like to think of ourself as being nice too ;)
[09:43] <zipper> The song does say that south africans don't have a sense of humour.
[09:43] <zipper> I guess they're right about that
[09:43]  * zipper hides
[09:43] <zipper> LOL
[09:43] <zipper> chesedo: LOL I don't mean to offend. I'll stfu now
[15:15] <chesedo> QA: tell zipper "LOL, no problem man :D"
[15:15] <QA> chesedo: Okay, I'll tell zipper on freenode
