Mark Normand: A Joke About Racism

Mark Normand (0:04)

But it is horrible when you see some real racism go down. I was on the bus last week, black guys trying to get on the bus. The driver's like, yeah, we're full. He's like, what? I'm just trying to get on the bus. He goes, we're full, buddy. And he goes, you treat me like this because I'm black. You treat me differently because I'm black. I'm like, man, that is messed up that someone treats someone differently because they're black. Then I realized, wait a minute, we all do that. All right, black guy says the n-word, no big deal. White lady, you say the n-word, I get an erection. Oh, yeah.

But sometimes you should treat groups differently, you know? If my white friend's getting wild, I'm like, dude, you're crazy. You're an animal. If my black friend's getting wild, I'm like, dude, you're crazy.

Yeah, I'm way nicer to black people than I am to white people. Yeah, I was at the gym one time, white guy was playing his music really loud. We're like, dude, what are you doing? It's a public space. It's rude. Get the hell out of here. He leaves. 20 minutes later, black guy comes in, he starts playing his music really loud, and we're all like, good tunes, brother.

And then I got a guy recently, go, oh, you do that because you're scared of black people. I'm like, whoa, I'm not scared of black people. I'm scared of black people's cell phone cameras. That is terrifying, you know? I'm at a restaurant, a black guy's like, I got you. You're like, whoa, I said vinegar, vinegar. What the hell? Salt and vinegar. That's a dicey one.
