People are People

People are people, so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
People are people, so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
So we're different colours and we're different creeds
And different people have different needs
It's obvious you hate me though I've done nothing wrong
I've never even met you, so what could I have done
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
People are people, so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
People are people, so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
And now you're punching and you're kicking and you're shouting at me
I'm relying on your common decency
So far, it hasn't surfaced but I'm sure it exists
It just take a while to travel from your head to your fist
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand

People are people, so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
People are people, so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand
I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand

Gay people are gay

An adage used as a psychological tool to expose bias.

The key portion is the last word, which used in this context can be interpreted either as a statement of truth (i.e. oranges are orange) or as a pejorative insult (Those shoes are gay). Essentially it will trigger people who are easily triggered. The point of doing this is to show that an inherently unbiased statement is interpreted by the individual to follow their own rationale, often time exposing their bias towards negative interpretation.

Similar to "It's okay to be white".

heilhonkler tweets: "Gay people are gay."

rando tweets: "@Twitter why do you continue to allow homophobic hate speech on your platform? People like this are despicable and should be banned."

*outrage ensues*

several people are typing 

What your device says when multiple people are typing at once. This can be due to an argument, a large number of people active at once, or somebody asking a question so stupid that it leads to several people typing.

Me: "Does a straw have one hole or two holes?"

*Several people are typing...*

people are starving 

Default phrase used by jealous, bitter and prejudiced people who try to self-righteously point to some humanitarian reason for not liking a person or event rather than expose their own baseless, misdirected and personal grudges.

The user will desperately search for ANY possible reason to criticize an event or another person, but after realizing that their criticisms are unjustified and irrelevant, this fall-back phrase is utilized; The user knows that this phrase is not only impossible to disagree with, but it also cleverly blames the person or event in question for the fact that people are starving.

It should be noted that the user of this phrase will do everything to maintain the illusion that they are a righteous person for thinking about starving people, yet the user himself has done absolutely NOTHING to help these people, and never will.

"Hey, did you see Obama play basketball the other day?"
"No, people are starving and all he wants to do is play basketball..."

"Did you see the Miss Universe Pageant last night??"
"I don't watch that crap, because people are starving...."

"Hey, wanna come with me to the mall?"
"Uhh, I don't go to the mall, people are starving..."

black people are always late 

Black-man time: When you say to your black friend to come to work at 8:30 in the morning and he strolls in at 4 pm.

"Hey, what time do you call this?"
"Black-man time."

Told you, black people are ALWAYS late.
