Transcript

5 things that are NOT racist... but seem racist Number one, starting off strong. "Cars" being your favorite Pixar movie. Number two, watching UFC. No reason why it, just feel like maybe you're a little racist, okay? Number three, eating at Cracker Barrel. I mean, guys, it's in the name. You know, it's like something about that just I feel like maybe you descended from some bad people, right? You know what I'm saying? Uh, number four, owning Vineyard Vines clothing. Okay, one or two pieces is okay, like, you know, it's a popular brand, but when it's becoming a notable part of your wardrobe, that's where I get a little sussed out. And number five, ending with a banger. Putting a fence up. If you were all responsible for a fence going up anywhere, yeah, you're probably a little racist. You know what I mean? And I don't know why, I can't articulate it, I can't articulate it, but it's in there and I think you know it is too. Anyway.
