Token Word of the Day: Coon

I wanted to do a post entitled "Can you not be a coon for one day of your life?" But I realized that I should probably make a definition for coon, considering many of my readers (All 4 of you) might not know what that word means.

*Coon: (n) A black person who is basically a stereotypic caricature of themselves. They exhibit their coonery in profoundly numerous ways. You typical everyday coon will be one of those black people that make other black people cringe and face palm. You know the everyday person you might see on the news after a murder or other tragic events happens in the "hood"? There is a decent chance that the reporter found the worst person imaginable person is a coon. However!!!!!! Don't think that coons are relegated to poverty! They can be found in the uppereschelons of society and be quite famous.**

You want some examples of a coon so incase you run into one you can recognize what exactly you are dealing with?
When I first saw this ignorant, ignorant coon on the internet I was like cotdamnit! Who let this fool ass reggin within 100ft of a camera. It's ok to have someone like this in your family or neighborhood but under no circumstances this cartoon of a person be famous... Ever.






WHAT IN THE AQUA BLUE HELL ARE YOU DOING WITH A VIKING HORN ON? Who let this crack addict coon have his own TV show??? You know he once made a song called "She Watch Channel Zero" which extolled the pitfalls of too much TV? All said, you know at the end of the day <---- That guy is a musical genious who plays ALL of the instruments. But... Don't do drugs kids.






If you've never seen this woman good for you. A small significant piece of your soul is still pure and virtuous. For the rest of us.... COTDAMNIT THIS IS WORSE THAN ANDRE DODSON AND I THOUGHT THAT WAS THE LIMIT!!!!!!! Just stop using words you don't understand coons. It's just, ugh.






The worst type of coon is the type of coon who should certainly know better but exploits his coonery for this own advantage. I could hear an argument that the previous people didn't know any better and were products of their environment. I can't possibly see what would make Tyler Perry want to dress up as mammy and parade around as a woman. Also, make tv shows and HORRIBLE movies that set people back at least 30 years. It's a sad, sad, sad, horrible day that this man is more rich and famous that Spike Lee.









**Note: The token does the count the older black actors and actresses who are generally labeled coons... They had to do what they had to do to get paid. By mandate I am not allowed to knock the hustle.
* White people, don't call a black person a coon... It won't go well. Unless it's Tyler Perry, you can call him whatever you want.

Word of the Day - Bollocks

Welcome, welcome, welcome to Token's second Word of the Day!!!!!!

Bollocks - (n; adj) Literally meaning testicles used more simply in this Token's everyday life as nonsense. Something may be described as and be bollocks. However, you cannot have a bollocks bunch of bollocks because that wouldn't make any sense and would be, by definition, bollocks.

Try that today, in your everyday life. When your boss tells you to do something you don't feel like doing just say bollocks!!! Chances are he won't know what in the seven realms of actual frick you are talking about anyway.

Word of the Day- Token

Well since this is called token travels I might as well define what a token is. Oh, you know what a token is. You seen us everywhere. We are in your bars, your movies, in your classes and at your parties. So there we go!

Token: (n) A (historically black) person who is surrounded by (normally white) people. In modern movies the "token black guy" can be seen as the only black face in the whole movie (this is excellently made fun of in "Not Another Teen Movie). In everyday life you can see the token black guy nicely dressed in a bar in a nice area of town trying to fit in.



In other news, I'm going to see if I can have user id's from fb be able to comment.
