Yep, I've heard that joke this week, and got about 5 or 6 text messages saying the same.

This is a funny thread. Put this in the Atlanta thread, and it would've been either shut down quickly or all the closet supremacists would've come out the woodwork spewing their rhetoric and it would've been a back and forth between everyone.

I'm black and this post outside of amazon > bestbuy is a joke.

Heck, put this in ANY other city and it would have gone off the charts and been a mudslinging fest in 1 page.

One thing I will say about the majority of us over here in the Dallas forum: We have a GREAT sense of humor.

I will go out on a limb here, and venture to guess that actual Caucasians would shop somewhere near the Caucasus Mountains in southern Russia. I have heard that the people there are like 98% Caucasian. You may know them as "Armenians" here in Texas. There is a small Armenian community near Big Town Mall.

Which is very close to Bigot Towne Center, which means I was probably right all along. But I digress...

So what you're saying, if I'm hearing this correctly, is that if Scooter really wants to hit his target demographic, he should ideally set up a booth at a flea-market in Southern Russia, or one of the nearby former republics of Russia, correct?

If so, then I think we have one more hurdle, and if we all work together like we have been so far, I think we can lick it in no time:

because i have a little car and i have to bring some of my basic living item and clothes, i can only fit 1 scooter, 1 skateboard, no toy because of bulky, most of semi precious stone jewelry ( because they are small and can sell faster than a scooter), cotton shirt ( as these 2 styles are my last shirts ).
So to summarize: we have established that the Caucasian go shopping in southwest central Asia, but we are faced with the fact that Scooter has small car, and can only carry one mid-range Caucasian skatescooter, some cheap jewelry, some basic living item, etc.

Can anyone here calculate the price point of the Caucasian skatescooter in order for him to make a tidy profit?

Aceplace?

That is good question, but here is a better one:

If Caucasian "A" leaves New York on a skatescooter heading west at 20kph to shop for expensive jewelry, and Caucasian "B" leaves Denver on a skatescooter heading east at 18kph to shop for medium quality cotton shirts, what will be the closest predominantly Caucasian midwestern city when they meet?

I swear that question was on the math TAKS test recently.

Some possibilities would be:
St Louis
Chicago
Indianapolis
Columbus
Dayton
Cincinnati

Of course I did not take into consideration the weather or elevation changes. All of which would need to be calculated in order to come to the right answer.

Why is race important to where you shop?

That's a farging trick question!!!

Well, let's see: plotting a line directly between NYC and Denver, and measuring 1380Km from NYC, we find that the skatescooter headed to find expensive jewelry (and headed AWAY from the Diamond District!) is almost to Omaha. Just in time to enjoy the Caucasian steak...

As they teach for the TAKS, we should start ruling answers out. Just checked census figures for Chicago, 41.9% Caucasian, therefore we probably want to rule out selling Caucasian skatescooters in Chicago.
