The demon hellspawn wore tennis shoes

Black-clad dancers in Boston's South Station

There are some things you just shouldn't be seeing first thing in the morning at South Station, and Serena Tang reports this group of black-clad symbolic cats is one of them. And she reports they could sense her get-away-from-me-ness:

They started meowing at me.

The tail ruins the whole thing. Looks like an unraveled sausage.

Black man group or unknown people dressed like black cats? Nothing I saw in her tweet said anything about a group of black men but hey, we're always aware of the "get away from me ness" vibe coming off of white folks, especially in South Station.

btw, my comment is NOT directed at ST

That's all I was thinking: Instead of people in blue doing silly things, they're people in black doing silly things (I gather they were advertising kitty litter).

But since not everybody gets the reference, I've changed it.

Her exact tweet on the situation - I linked to her overall page because she had additional things to say about these people in bad cat suits.

Your overly sensitive white guilt kicked in. Your title wasn't racist, some people need to find everything offensive for some odd perverted reason.

If you look further down this thread, you'll notice somebody was taking it that way. That I didn't mean it that way doesn't mean I can't recognize how some people might You don't like it? I don't care.

Just for the record, I know it wasn't meant that way. I only recognized the double-entendre and used it for an admittedly silly joke.

There is money in sharing the unearned fruit of your proudly insensitive self.

Hell no. I love being who I am. I don't feel guilty at all. I especially don't feel guilty since I worked my ass off for everything I have. Yeah, I know. I'm white and therefore inherently racist and terrible. Now take a hike. You're a nuisance.

Just when I thought the Converse "look at people's dirty sneakers" campaign was one of the silliest I've seen to date. And, while I don't use South Station, at least I feel better knowing I could just walk away from these people without having to endure their message for my entire subway ride.

...of their third year college sociology class, so they're just reciting what they were just taught.

Thus you know what is taught.

I knew you, of all people, would take that literally. Go ahead and subsitute any number of other courses where glorified teenagers are taught to hate themselves and this country. And yes, I know what is taught. I was damn near tarred and feathered for daring to speak to something other than the far left ideology that the professors were spewing, once in a history class, and one (you guessed it) in a sociology class. So there you go. Question answered.

Right?

Forced Christianity, drunken raping, gay bashing binges, orgies, drunken ceremonies.

It must be true! The internet says so!

So tell us - when was the last time you heard any "liberal" ideology listened to or accorded any respect in your line of work? What would happen to someone who actually believed that he or she was a public servant in the old-school sense of that word (and not a default police-state hero to be ego-fluffed on demand or else) and spoke in support of our current president?

Talk about a non-sequitor. What the hell are you even ratning about? Yeah, I get it. You're anti-military and elitist. But please at least try to stay on topic.

Maybe ST is familiar with Green man from Sunny? As soon as I saw this pic I thought of green man, but in black. Hence, Black man. But hey, it's 2015, let's make everything about race!

The last thing commuters from the suburbs want to see when they get to South Station is something that could be called a "black man group".

I kid, I kid...

the "zombies" that were chasing folks, early in the am, around Park Street station, a few years back.

Having a guy covered in fake blood trying to grab you is something best to experience after a third cup of coffee.

I don't think it's particularly good art, but I'm glad that Boston is a place where people do weird, harmless things from time to time.

this group of black-clad symbolic cats

Symbolic of what?

up

In the sense that they look absolutely nothing like actual cats and yet meowed.

Did these people sit on someone's laptop when they were trying to work? Did they climb to the highest point in the room and then projectile-vomit out across all the furniture? Did they seek out someone trying to have their breakfast, plop down on the floor, and start noisily licking their junk, pausing occasionally to look up at their human audience to silently ask "WTF are you looking at? You know you'd do it if you could reach."

I think not!
