Re: Dutch St. Nick Met by Anti-Blackface Protest; 90 Arreste
But do you think whiteface is racist? I answered this already. No. Why? Because there was never a tradition of minstrel shows put on by blacks that helped dehumanize white people. Whiteface was never part of a cultural complex that robbed whites of their freedom and dignity. As soon as Africa invad...

Re: Dutch St. Nick Met by Anti-Blackface Protest; 90 Arreste
But if Michael Jordan is my hero and I paint my white skin black too portray him better, I am just a racist or I never should do that? There is no reason to wear blackface. Whether you were intentionally being racist or not, blackface is inherently racist. Just. Don't. Do. It. White people were sla...

Re: Bong connoisseurs.. Help needed
So I'm giving up the evil weed (tobacco) but still maintaining my love for the glorious weed. I've always been a tobacco/weed joint smoker so don't have a lot of knowledge of all things bong related. Can anyone recommend a good bong (preferably glass) which would be good for daily tokage? I smoke m...

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0381707/reviews So black people doing white people is comedy but blackface is just racist. Come on world, serious. How do you portray black people if your white and you don't colour your skin? If ya don't your costume is pretty shit. Whiteface isn't racist because there'...

Re: Should tourists give up going to the dam ...
Really?!? You lot are gonna just stop going to this beautiful metropolis because a couple of coffeeshops are closing?? That's insane. Firstly, the dutch government is not going to ban weed at any point in the near (or distant) future and secondly, even if it did, Amsterdam has a whole lot more to o...

Re: Some advice for a non-weed smoker!
I would recommend buying a cheapo handheld bong. You can find one for less than 20 euro, even at the central rip-off headshops. The glass will be super thin so it breaks easily, but it still should hit fine for as long as it's in one piece. Buy some rubbing alcohol and some Kleenex from an Etso(they...

Re: Coffee Shops that allow Tobacco?
As others have said, you can usually get away with it in most coffeeshops. If you wanna feel secure and not worry about smoking in a non-smoking area, places do have separate smoking rooms. Outside of Amsterdam, shops will either have these smoking spaces or be take-out only since few Dutchies smoke...

Re: best coffeeshop menus for price and quality
In the Centrum, Anyday seems to have the best cheap weed(I remember Siberie having a good and reasonably priced menu, too.) If you're willing to go outside the center, try Chapiteau, Bij or Boerejongens

Re: A Newcomer's Guide to Amsterdam Restaurants
La Place was at the end, in the self-serve gourmet cafeteria part. But since everyone just calls it the "V&D cafeteria"(personally I try not to associate food with VD, but whatever), I made that a bit clearer.

Bluebird and Paradox have some, IIRC. Also, Katsu and Dolphins have Verdamper(sp?) vaporizers which are also really cool.

Re: Membership at Amsterdam- East coffeeshops
In the Best Friends page on the directory, one reviewer mentions "This shop is close to Camping Zeeburg on tram line 14.The Dealers booth is separated from the café, I bought some `Snow-white` and asked could me and my wife go inside to try out our herb, we was told that it was members only and...

Re: Best prerolled joints in Leiden?
Club Media gets mentions for its pre-rolled joints. Still, you should avoid them if you can. To expand on the reasons why you shouldn't buy pre-rolled: 1) You can't see what you're getting. It could be nice buds or it could be the shake from the bottom of the jar. Until you buy it and light it up, y...
