Great. It's settled.

You are stupid.

that's your view and you're welcome to it, just as you're welcome to view that insult as an injury

No. I don't mind your view-point at all.

If loss of time and opportunity is not injury, come work for me. No pay of course. Your time is worth nothing.

Not a soul agrees that you are not stupid.

that may indeed may be the case

No. I don't mind your view-point at all.

If loss of time is not injury, come work for me. For free.

nah, I'll keep self-employin'

So come render me your services for free.

Your lost time/opportunity cost is an inconvenience, not an injury.

If loss of time is not injury

it's not: if it were, I send you a bill

So what would you do if all of your customers expected you to work for free?

What is a 'white name'??

So you are color AND culturally blind?

Jabulani, Mandla, Thabisa, Lerato <--- These are all traditional African names.

So a "white name" would me a name that lacks the connotation of being "traditionally African".

FFS. The ONLY thing landlords care about is getting their money and not having their property destroyed. If they've had bad experiences with people with supposedly 'black names' then it's hardly 'racist' for them to avoid those names in the future.
You do realise that Africa is a huge continent made up of many countries don't you?

If you have bad experiences with people named Goldberg, that doesn't make you a nazi.

what could you possibly be doin' that you expect others to value your time simply cuz you say it's valuable?

I recall you self-employ too, or are wealthy, or somesuch: do you charge an hourly rate?

me: I charge for product
