	I'd just like to point out that Jericho Drumm is a university doctorate and has always spoken perfect English. Why turn his speech pattern stereotypical by now? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I tried doing the accent for a RPG game I was GMing set in Jamaica. Everyone -- and I mean everyone -- ended up speaking with a scottish accent instead. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Aren't those quotation marks? I figured he was quoting something. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I think those are apostrophes to show that he is abbreviating words. Like when you type y'see. Actually the first thing my eyes were drawn to were "Brudder Voodoo" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Except, again, Bendis-brand fail for putting an apostrophe before 'da', which is simply an accented 'the'. (Reply to this) (Parent)

~~Because previously it was an example of the whiteinization of other cultures!~~

Stop that.

No. And you can't make me.

No, seriously, stop that. This isn't a case of racism or reverse racism, this is just ignorance of characterization. Seriously. Quit it.

Nyaah, I can be a jerk if I want to be.

Okay, that's it. I'm pulling out the fan art. If I can't win an argument on the internet WITH MYSELF with FAN ART, I don't want to live.

Do. Your. Worst.

quit it

. . .

Yes?

. . . I'll be good.

That's what I thought.

	is that Candle Ja... er... the guy from Freakazoid who kidnaps and ties up people who say his name? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yes. I would love for Freakazoid to somehow become canon in the DCU, just so things like this could happen. Also, WW/CJ battle of bondage. (Reply to this) (Parent)
