Thoughts on selling your children on the blackmarket?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't like the term blackmarket, it insinuates 'black' as a negative analogy.

Black hole also a problem?

I do wonder if it is some form of institutionalised racism. Anything with a negative connotation is 'black'.

"Pot that called the kettle black", obviously black being soot but why is it used as the insult in the instance of hypocrisy.

I believe it may be sadly so that every "black" sheep, mark, etc is sadly related to that mindset
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So a black sheep was seen as the mark of the devil in 18th century England

Interestingly black-*rse appears to have no racial connotations (if that is the original meaning) but black eyes looks like it might.

i've never heard of black *rse before

I saw Power Rangers. Naomi Scott is fit, fine with the casting

Black *rse is in the original meaning, read the ffs.

So the popular saying is literally black *rse?

Again never heard that said aloud before by anyone

"Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?"

From the Bible. actually quite a funny retort

Read the effing wiki article ffs. From the original context in Spanish it was derived from 'the pot that called the kettle black eye/*rse' the latter meaning someone who spends a lot of time in a kitchen and gets soot on their trousers.

i knew an old lady who swallowed a wooden eye
why oh why did she swallow that eye

On an unpopular note, the Bible really is fanscinating.
