Black, White, Asian whatever, it is not good to buy people--ever.

Some of the others, especially the young ones, don't get it either, especially the black ones who used to send it. Once Facebook added the "block application" feature, I blocked that one, and many others, and once you've blocked it, that sucker never intrudes upon your doorstep again.
