"Don’t Monkey with it” is not a common phrase? According to who? Oh, google is deciding what our common vernacular should and should not be?
Using the phrase “that’s hinky,” is not a common phrase to me. I was thirty years old the first time I heard someone use it. Google hinky, see what it says. You know what? It doesn’t matter to the people who use it, they think hinky is a common word.
Oh well, if some twitterer who uses goofy images online comes up with this nonsense after the fact, it must be true.
No it’s not. Even in context, your premise wouldn’t make sense. “Don’t mess up this up?”
Google is rather reliable when it comes to “how often a phrase is used.”
It’s not one that’s common - in fact, I bet you can’t find me an old video of anyone saying it.
Stop that nonsense. Its like “Don’t mess this up” is the same as "don’t monkey this up. Working so hard to make this racist when it isnt.
Ok, so “monkey” is the same as “mess” used as a verb.
More Goofy tweets created after the fact by some tweeter to prove your point, please.
Well every time a thread comes up on this forum regarding coded/covert racism there is a select group of cons that come and dismiss it.
Hell we had an entire thread on Trump saying the N word and the usual suspects came to defend him.
We had a thread on a Fox News contributor saying to a black person “you are out of your cotton picking mind”… the usual suspects came to defend or question the language.
So from my perspective, some cons on this board will only MAYBE see racism if it OVERT. Meaning some has to use the N word towards a black person WITH a specific tone. Some has to lunch a black person WITH a full understanding of what lynching is. Someone had to have owned slaves.
The usual suspect will parse anything about racism of the right to make it less so. This thread and many other so that to be true.
Btw you are a part of the usual suspects on this issue.
Congrats,

And many on the left in this forum will see racism in the phone book if the media gives them the go ahead.
I think Doug was digging at you for rushing headlong into the trap rather than comment on DeSantis’ intellect.
awwwww yes the common race baiting response. So typical.
Go ahead and check the latest on DeSaints. He knew exactly what he was doing.
So now “the left” is too stupid to know racism? Btw “left” includes my black lazy monkey self.
So are you saying I don’t know what racism is? If so, give me some examples of REAL racism in your mind.
I would bet your definition fall right in line with my con list of racist acts.
so close…
It’s funny how some white people (mostly Trump supporters) can’t comprehend that black people just might have the ability to accurately determine which of us are racist or not.
…and there are a bunch of people who see everything thru their rainbow tinted glasses that see bigotry behind every rock, and everything someone says becomes a covert dog whistle for racism.
Maybe it’s not a part of your vernacular, but to the people who use the word hinky, it is a part of theirs.
It was dumb and stereotyping, but in what way woukd it be racist?
Yeah I just googled “Hinky”. 1.8 Million results.
How many results popped up for “monkey this up” again? I posted that earlier but I’m going to let you look.
What do you consider racist then?
So you think he was referencing all races?
