Once again me just wants to say sorry for kicking up more of a fuss than i should have!!!

Just LOL @ this thread.

It reminds me of school when Lenny Henry was doing that comedy show and kept doing sketches with "IS IT COS I'M BLACK?". My mate at school used it once in a German lesson when the teacher asked him a question. She didn't know what to do and switched to someone else

whats that Saint people have in their car. Mum had a magnet attached in the jetta

well...

Theres a Polo round my way driven by a white 'chav', and he has a black ribbon tied to his toe-eye.

I've been told its a drug dealer thing, which, without meaning to sound discriminative, is quite a common thing among Pakistani types.

If he's a white chav, he probably doesnt even realise what it means, or that its religious..

++ 15BHPTBHFTW!!!!111

I'm muslim ...as far as i know we dont have this. us Turks have the evil-eye thing but i dont put that up as its not an islamic thing, just culture.

Its just to prevent bad luck, bit of superstition (sp) really.

Like some people have horseshoes on top of thier doors.

You get me !? ? !?!

may well sound ignorant here bcos its not related to religion, but maybe its similair to wearing a black band round you are arm, people in mourning maybe!?!
