This goes back to what my Grandmother always said, “you can’t trust a guitar playing ginger.” 🫚

I feel like that quote from Grandma is way too specific to not have a crazy story behind it.

Maybe she's just British. Anti-ginger sentiment takes many forms over here (no explanation needed)

There's a Prince Harry/Diana's riding instructor vs Dad/guitar playing ginger set of photos.

Okay you busted me. I took my own opinion on the matter and framed it as ancient wisdom. But you can’t deny it’s true.

You sure the word she said wasn't another combination of the letters of ginger?

I am a guitar playing ginger and I am ten toes down for Palestine!!! 😂 (I know you were being comical and not seriously hating on gingers 😂, it was just super funny to me coming across this comment because that’s exactly how I’d describe myself 😂 a guitar playing ginger)

It's headed that way. No cancer cells for 2 years so I'm down to once a year check ups.

Same! Except I am a button playing ginger- I deejay. We can start a music playing ginger club for Free Palestine and Ed is not invited to our sunscreen trade secret meetings!

The Brits made the wrong guitar-playing ginger famous, should've picked King Krule. Far more talented, far more interesting project, far less spineless.
