Bryan…
If I may step in…
First off, I will not apologize for posting the picture. I do take your absurd comment that the picture is “a disgrace to 7-11 employees everywhere” as an accusation of racism. You don’t know a thing about me, Bryan, with respect to my political sensibilities or my sense of humor. If you find the picture offensive, then I would consider you a prig and a puritan, and I would not apologize for stating that either. The picture is indeed a crude and, more importantly, funny sight gag, but as Rich so aptly put it… “You don’t get it”.
Further, I don’t believe that I have ever met Rich, and in any event, he is not a good friend of mine. But, just because he shows himself to be a clear-thinking gentleman with a sense of humor should not imply to you that his motives are not what they appear to be. If your humor needs to be politically correct, you might want to consider that your way of thinking is outside of the mainstream. Because it is.
And finally, with respect to your ”No, I don't see anything funny about the picture what-so-ever. I'd appreciate anyone telling me what IS so funny about it.” I will say that just as I will not defend my sensibilities to you, nor am I inclined to diagram the humor for you. If you don’t get it now, you’ll never get it.
Have a great day…and lighten up
