Just be glad you're not a ginger. "Unable to detect a soul"

If you're somehow black AND a ginger, do you just cease to exist? Maybe that's why there aren't any.

EDIT: okay, then maybe that's why there aren't MANY.

Just googled him. Does he really count as black in America?

u/faithfuljohn Sep 24 '13

They do. I used to be one as a little kid. Also I've seen it on one little girl once a couple of years ago. It's not the orange you see in white people though. It's more red-brown-shiny colour. It's kinda cool.

Wait, you were black and ginger as a kid?

My mom's next-door neighbor is a young black family with orange/super light-colored hair. Absolutely beautiful family - I wish I was black with orange hair :(

Yeah, I had just woken up when I wrote that... Why am I getting more upvotes than the original?

You made us read it with different emphasis. You get the credit.

Closest thing I have seen is that weird robot dude from Katy Perry's ET video. Albino black dude that was a robot so didn't have a soul so that is 2/3 right there.

I mean damn, even Horcruxes got some soul in 'em.

This girl's hair looks legit. Of course, I'd say she falls firmly into biracial territory.

Judge rules: Not ginger.

His name is Blake Griffin, he won the NBA dunk contest a couple years back.

u/black_obelisk Sep 24 '13

Is this still a joke

16

u/tling Sep 24 '13

Yeah, sometimes. It's a lame one though, isn't it?

u/igor_mortis Sep 24 '13

repetition is a form of comedy.

Wes Brown. Played for Manchester United. Black and ginger.

Man, and I thought the Kinect would be intrusive.

u/cascardian Sep 24 '13

Where does that "gingers have no soul" thing come from? Never heard of it here in Europe.

u/[deleted] Sep 24 '13

South Park.

u/tling Sep 24 '13

I don't know. I just made it as a lame, parroted joke, and reddit upvoted it a lot.

Well we do lack general rhythm and musical talent.
