Ace Boon Coon?

[kidinquisitive]

I was just paid a visit from a very cool japanese dealer who runs a shop called Boon Coon records.He had good taste.

Maybe in records, but not in store names.

apparently it's accepted in the urban dictionary...not that i agree with it.

Why wouldn't it be accepted?

poor choice of words on my part. i don't agree with the term. just my $.02

i know why it was accepted in the dictionary, i just meant i'm not into the term personally.

Doc Beezy, an answer to your PM is a lengthy one, and I will hit you with it. It just requires a lot of soul searching.



I was stationed at Clark Air Force Base in 1961-62. When soldiers who were liked by the Philippine people were given a farewell party in downtown Angeles(the town outside the base) they were celebrated as being A number one Ace Boon Coons, a term of endearment. It is the only place I have heard this term used. As an African-American man I didn't find the term offensive. All these many years later, I still don't.

Glad that’s been cleared up.
