Just for the record, you can be logged on with two accounts on the same computer. You just need to use different browsers, Not saying you are, of course.

And also that updates every few minutes, so you could probably time it so that you can get both names to appear. Also I'm puzzled. How come you just "happen" to have a screen shot showing both your names at the time of the conversation. And the date and time on the shot shows this. Very strange...

Obviously he took a screenshot at the time to show everyone that both usernames were online at once... I don't see where you're trying to go with that?

But if you look when the screen shot was taken, it was on the 25th, at 7.44pm, just after the conversation. Not when he made the post, which was on the 26th at 2.50am. So why would someone take a screen shot to show they were both on at the same time before they were even asked that question?

yes. For 'criminy''s sake. I mean... you guys already hate me enough, what with my "crazy" ideas of smokers being equals and the southern sympathizing, why would I go through the trouble of creating an alternate me? =p

OK, I have a significant question. For all you white people on this board, such as myself, how do you feel about the label "white" (becaue I'm reading a book about that... written by this white guy about helping whites stop racism because believe it or not, it's a serius issue for me that just gets me ticked like no other.) Anyway, I'd like to hear about how other whites feel about being called "white".

I don't really care if I'm called "white." I can't say it makes a difference to me. I wouldn't feel any different if I was called caucasion.

you can see the words people use? How cool is that! Wow...you're like...God or something... :} Anyhoo, I dunno about being called white...my dad has a big ole problem with it, because he'll be like "Look at my skin! I'm colored too!" Or something weird and racist. He's pretty racist...But he's a scotsman so he's allowed to be. I'm never called white, unless it's by BK, so tisn't a big dilly yo...to me anyhow.

yeah.. OH. you can reead that? I guess I'll change it then... I only wrote it because I thought no one could read it. my bad and now I feel guilty for using that word. YIP

I don't have a problem with being called white either. I never have. but the book I'm reading says basically that every white person tries to avoid being called white by saying something like "I'm not white, I'm Jewish" or "I'm not white, I'm Scottish"... The book makes me really mad because it's meant to teach people about not stereotyping but it's stereotying white peopl. and the author is Jewsih so he thinks he's allowed to be racist towards whites.

I have no problem with being called white. I don't see what's wrong with "black" either, it's much less racist that African American. Hi, how many black people live in places other than America?

I think the word caucasion is dorky And too formal-ish. And if we're going to start calling everyone by the color they actually are, we will be beige-tan people, and black people will be brown people. Does it really matter what we call ourselves? We're all humans, and using a word to describe our differing skin colors isn't that big of a deal *uhm... am I making sense?*

yeah, but like Thomas said, Jesse... timezones. I think Jeremy is on the other side of the world or so, so it'd look like the same day to him.

Anyway, back to THE TOPIC! Our point is that no one can ever say they are not racist.
