No, it's just one of those interesting observations we see in our world around us. It would only be racist if you preceded or followed it with, 'Yahoo is only used by lowlife deadbeat junkies', then racist for sure.

I'll make an interesting(to me) observation. Whether your question was kidding or not, you still made the connection in your mind that whenever you make a statement including 'black people', you have to be cautious it could be interpreted as racist. Not that it's a bad thing, but it's a refection of the world today, full of people looking for something to be offensive, or triggers.
Now back to the regularly scheduled thread.
