    Default Time for a new PandM!

    This has nothing to do with gaming or smoking! I know! Tis a shocker.
    So, as I am browsing the net for gaming news and any other news, I ran across this.

    Is it just me here? I swear it can't be.

    Seriously, boo fuckin hoo! 'I was compared to a candy bar now I'm going to sue them' Who gives a shit! Would you rather be compared to a white chocolate bar? That crap is not even chocolate as far as I am concerned. If my white ass was featured in a Cadbury commercial, I would be sucking those bars down like there was no tomorrow! And I can't deal with dairy that well!!!

    "I am shocked. It's upsetting to be described as chocolate, not just for me, but for all black women and black people. I do not find any humor in this. It is insulting and hurtful." That is what she told the paper!!!

    Are we all five years old now? Shit! We all know by reading the ad that there was nothing harmful meant by it and yet Cadbury still yanked the ad. The politically correct bullshit has gotta stop!

    If I was Cadbury, I would have told her to piss off and then spent more money so the ad was as many places as I could get it!

    Seriously, have a sense of humor because if you don't, the world is going to be a very nasty place!

    And meanwhile, at the Legion of Kraft Foods, the executives are wringing their hands gleefully over all the media hype the twit's giving their product.

    I don't know about this and how it effects coloured people racism-wise, so I cannot really tell whether it was a rascist thing. I did not see the ad, you see.

    Of course my Radeon HD 4850 can handle it. 1280x1024 FTW!

    It's actually on the same page Neil listed. I sincerely doubt she's irked because it's racist, it's more of a "Waaaaaaaaaah, they used my first name without giving me $$$$$$$$$$$!!!!" type thing.

    In fact I did not see a link. The whole problem with the new red forum skin is that links look the same as normal text.

    I noticed the link in Neil's post now and really, I don't see the problem. It's a bummer she's not baby Ike else we could have called for Kyle to let her get rid of the ego thing, if you get my meaning.
