    because they don't sell red delicious apples in a 3# bag (only a 5# bag and I can't eat them fast enough) my go-to apples are honey crisp and jazz snackers.

    Because we try to be as loose with moderation as possible. To clarify, are you saying we should ban any such terms regardless of who uses them, with warnings issued?

    These are serious questions by the way, remember I'm one of the people who explicitly supports cracking down on race baiting in the rules.

    Because when you raised people using it I was coming across posts like this:

    So I was taking your complaints seriously and trying to find these occasions because yes things often do escape our notice or we don't have context for why they are offensive terms.

    Which people have been treated differently?

    Up to now the only people who have been banned for racism related reasons were people like Tasvir and Ramen. I think everyone could agree they were on a much higher level.

    Possibly the best-tasting apples I've ever had are Winesaps, very common in Upstate NY (they like cold winters), but I haven't seen one on either coast in years.

    Second-best is the MacIntosh, but only on the East Coast. Something about the water, the climate, or whatever. You can find them in big supermarkets here but, while they look like Macs, they're bland and mealy and don't have that crisp afterbite that a real Mac has.

    IMO. YMMV.

    That is so racist against Native Americans. I know we were all thinking it but you had to say it?

    Ah hahahahahahahahahahahhaha! :lol:

    I'm saying you should enforce any rules you have equally.

    In this case I am referencing Anna's slur against white people as well as other idiots referring to me as an apple.

    To explain the joke, the melon is yellow on the outside but green on the inside. Since weaboos are white kids who try to look and be asian on the outside, and asians are associated with yellow I figured that would be the skin. Since some of them may be into green things like vegans I figured that was the green on the inside.

    Oh, and as for fruits and vegetables where the seeds are a big part of the awesome we have tomatoes, pomegranates, and cucumbers to name popular ones.

    Is there a fruit that is white on the outside an racist on the inside so I can call you that?

    We should start using this against him as kryptonite in other threads.
    It makes him hoof it on foot to the next town, and hide in the nearest barn.

    Granny Smiths are bitter. They're okay in baking or in salads with other (sweeter) things like grapes and melon, but by themselves...ouch!

    Haha, I get it, you're all dancing around the word.

    Good work, it's nice to have some of this on the board since Muad Dib isnt around anymore to start his coon threads.
