Is this racist?

Just asking:

A guy goes into a bar.....
A man walked into a very high-tech bar. As he sat down on a stool he noticed that the bartender was a robot. The robot clicked to attention and asked, "Sir, what will you have?"

The man thought a moment then replied, "A martini please."

The robot clicked a couple of times and mixed the best martini the man had ever had.

The robot then asked, "Sir, what is your IQ?"

The man answered "oh, about 164."

The robot then proceeded to discuss the 'theory of relativity', 'inter-steller space travel', 'the latest medical break throughs', etc.......

The man was most impressed. He left the bar but thought he would try a different tactic. He returned and took a seat. Again the robot clicked and asked what he would have? "A martini please."

Again it was superb. The robot again asked "what is your IQ, sir?"

This time the man answered, "Oh about 100". So the robot started discussing NASCAR racing, the latest basketball scores, and what to expect the Dodgers to do this weekend.

The guy had to try it one more time. So he left, returned and took a stool. Again a martini, and the question, "What is your IQ?"??

This time the man drawled out "Uh..... bout 50".

The robot clicked then leaned close and very slowly asked,

"A-r-e y-o-u p-e-o-p-l-e s-t-i-l-l h-a-p-p-y w-i-t-h O-B-A-M-A? ? "

How is it racist? There's no mention of race, not even a racial stereotype, in there.

thrshr68 · 10-19-2009, 11:44 PM

I guess it could be a political sattire joke..........

How did the bartender know he was an Obama supporter when he only told him that he had the IQ of a coconut?

Why does it have to be a coconut?
Why not a banana?

Bananas (and fruits in general) are more sophisticated.

Blakeski · 10-20-2009, 01:33 PM

nah not racist, just funny.

Muffrazr · 10-20-2009, 01:37 PM

Hilarious!! I don't see it as being racist. I have lots of ignorant, white friends that voted for Obama.

DAMN this joke has been around for a long-long time. The original set up was that the robot could carry on a conversation in any language with any person at their own IQ level. The robot's response to the guy with the 50 IQ was ....ughh, breaker-breaker, good buddy, you got your ears on?...

mustangguy289 · 10-29-2009, 05:24 PM

It's not racists at all.. the only argument you could make was prejudists.. or stereotyping that all dumb people voted for Obama.

No way. Coconuts are the second most sophisticated member of the nut family, behind nutmegs.

I believe you are completely disrespecting the nuthatch. Much more sophisticated than the nutmeg.
