DC Tom Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 What would Rick Monday have to say about this? Didn't he save the flag? Shut the !@#$ up, EII. We can't even use a real day as an epithet for you; we have to use one of the fake ones the Jacobins made up when they rewrote the French calendar during the First Republic.

Doc Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Until this thread I have never heard anybody call anybody a Monday. This is a big reach IMHO. That's what I thought.

DC Tom Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Yes Reason I ask is that your context, then, I would expect to be substantially different from most of ours (mine, at least). I don't hang out with racists, so I don't hear variations like "Monday"...you, unfortunately, don't have much of a choice when they're inflicted on you.

Good point, and I realize that that will color (no pun intended) our outlook on this subject. I've never been called a "Monday," (not that I'd really care if I was) but I have heard the racial context used in a joke. Once the joke was explained to me I was told by another at our luncheon that someone referred to him that way when he was in Arizona on business. Before that, I'd never heard of it.

IDBillzFan Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Must be a west of Mississippi thing? I've never heard of it until this thread either. Never heard it out here. Ever. But I live in the suburbs, so if we have contempt for anything to the extent that we'd call it a derogatory word like Monday, it's probably the actual day of the week. Sometimes we get a little uncivilized and say crazy things like "Man, this Tuesday feels like a Monday," but only once in a while when the silly season is upon us.

PushthePile Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Ive heard the joke and it is very very likely that he was using it in the assumed manner. The whole thing seems ridiculous to me though. The guy gets fired for yelling "monday" at a player and they support their action by saying he is a known racist???? Why did he have a job if he was a known racist already?

Nanker Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Monday's child is fair of face. (white cracker if ever I heard of one) Tuesday's child is full of grace. (homo-hating religious zealot) Wednesday's child is full of woe. (my birthday) Thursday's child has far to go. (trucker, NASCAR fan, no doubt) Friday's child is loving and giving, (Libtard/gay/lesbian/transgender/bisexual government ward) Saturday's child works hard for a living (shift workers/small business owners/entrepreneurs) But the child who is born on Sunday, is bonny, blithe, and eats at Chick-fill-A every day.

Ut oh... 2/11/1968 was a Sunday... My mother went into labor on Saturday (snowstorm in BFLO @ Sister's Hospital) and I was born very early Sunday morning... I work a different shift every week... But, not being born on a Saturday, work is cake... I am happy and handsomely good looking... ;-) :-P Blush... :-O I never ate at Chick-Fil-A... Always wanted to but the family always has overridden it the last couple of years I pushed for it. Anway, I want to go there even more now... LoL...

The guy gets fired for yelling "monday" at a player and they support their action by saying he is a known racist???? Why did he have a job if he was a known racist already? Well, truth be told, it's Boston. Being racist is kind of required to work for that city. They just don't like it when their employees go out and brag about it like this guy did. If they let him get away with yelling Monday willy nilly then who knows what would come next. Very tight ship they run there in Mass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fan in San Diego Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 (edited) I thought you lived in the country? No, I had a ranch/rehab center in the country that was burned down in the 2007 fires and in the aftermath I planted grapes and tried starting a winery but lost it to foreclosure. That was my business, I always lived in the city and commuted to the ranch. I would stay over night sometimes but lived in the city. The best of both worlds I guess.

Hey, at least you swung the bat. As far as the suburbs, I see that as the best of both worlds. I have enough land to plant crops, raise chickens, have a pool, and the kids have room to play, and I'm also still in the middle of civilization, there are plenty of kids around for my daughter to play with, I'm a short drive from everything I need, and as a bonus I can take advantage of the public school system (something I wouldn't dream of in the city).

The Dow Jones industrial average has been down 10 of the past 11 Mondays. And the two worst days in market history are both known as Black Monday. Well that's pretty redundant.
