Funny thing is, why are prawn crackers called crackers? In German, we call them Krabbenchips ( crab chips)

Why do blacks call whites crackers?

I've never heard the reason for that.

Florida Cracker here, and damn glad of it. Wouldn't want to be a Georgia Cracker. Or a Ritz, and don't even think about a saltine. Saltine crackers are so gay.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I've never understood the saying "like white on rice". And I'm not going to look it up either. I'll let Hermit provide the link.. :coffee:

It's "I'll be on you like white on rice." You can't get any closer to something than white is to rice.

The white is under the brown.

Polished rice is like a cut penis: wrong colour, vapid and unhealthy.

People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.

But those letters are not silent.

They're just waiting their turn.
