Um...

Why? Why?

Again. If I might ask...

Okay, so —

No. There is no excuse. Even if you grew up in a family full of closeted racists, this is insane.

In fact, put aside the racism thing... I’ve dressed as a sheik for Halloween. And we were fucked up. And I wore eye make up. But it was Bowie shit. What kind of person says, “Honey, while you’re doing the eyes... How about painting me in brown face? It’ll be the hit of the party!”

No. No. No one ever— no one with half a fucking brain, ever, ever does this. If not because it’s been offensive for, uh, forever, but also because it’s seriously fucking hard to remove that much makeup! “Oh, this’ll be a gas. I’ll pass out and wake up having destroyed someone’s carpet and covered in acne from clogged pores! Epic fun!”
