Imagine the uproar if a white person had said that. See comment like this can be made without causing offence.
It isn't quite as straightforward as that, though, is it? There will always be a difference between a joke that you choose to make about yourself and a joke that someone else makes about you. There's also a difference between someone that's close to you making a joke about you and someone you don't know well making a joke about you. Context is everything when it comes to humour. And, unfortunately, we still live in a society where it wouldn't be immediately clear that the motivation of a white stranger making that same joke was benign.
Mamma Mia, it's a Crazy World. Does Your Mother Know that One Of Us said this So Long ago. In fact The Day Before You Came. That's Me, Tiger. I've Been Waiting For You. I could go On And On And On, but Knowing Me Knowing You, and I know you are just the Man In The Middle, so I'll Move On. So Long.
Watched that at my desk at work. Jumped out of seat and made a ridiculous noise when the spider jumped towards the camera. Now everyone thinks I'm weird, and I can't explain why I jumped without confessing that I was skiving.
