cease lol and its a popular phrase in north america typically found in southern regions. the correct use is when you say something homosexual you say no homo. when your friend says something non-straight you say pause....and give them a chance to say no homo theres rules

Yes.  I've found that a certain subsection of the population tend to use it.  They also typically wear TapOut, Affliction, Silver Star, etc gear, get loudly drunk and make general nuisances of themselves.  The only time I've ever heard someone I know say it (which has maybe been twice ever), it was as a joke.  As in making fun of the statement itself and those that use it.  It's all a joke, of course.  Just nota very good one.

Yeah, that's what amazed me. It's not something you expect to hear from a D&D player. (Stereotyping, ahoy!)

But I'm often surprised by the kind of things people do that make you wonder if they're making a brilliant sarcastic response to the current state of social affairs, or (usually) are just really douches.

I saw a guy in the tram a few days ago that had specially made pants that literally had the crotch section below the knees. Not even sagging or anything... it just had the crotch below the knees, and then like 15cm or so of the sleeves left. It looked absolutely ridiculous and the guy still had an air of "look at me, such a tough guy" around him.

Yeah, it really makes you wonder about the beasts that you share the world with.  People just never think.  I mean, I'm guilty of it as well, but at least I try to solve those problems when I see 'em.  These guys?  Well, to them it ain't a problem.  The people that started it - rappers - have no problem marginalizing a group when they themselves come from one.  It's ... painful to think about.  Much like how the hell we're having a friggin' civil rights debate when we've already done that a couple times before and allegedly decided that all people really should be treated equally but whatever.  We forget so fast.  The Civil Rights Movement - what the hell was that?  Women's Sufferage - wha?  Equal pay for equal work - I don't even ...

Whoops ... drifted a bit.  Sorry, this has been on my mind lately.  Guess it needed to pop out.  Simple stuff that people just don't get.  Kinda makes ya ... misanthropic.

Sooo....

I don't know why I bring it up, but my "friend" coined the phrase "no negro" in response to the blatant insult that is "no homo" used in the hip-hop culture.

As in:  This is really good fried chicken, no negro.


I apologize in advance for mentioning it.

I think that highlights the trouble nicely.  It's a shame that it takes stuff like that for people to get it, though.
