Snickers removes nuts

What you didn't hear? From now on the great candy bar will no longer contain nuts. This decision comes from the top of the company. They feel since their upper level excutives don't have any nuts then their bars should no longer have any either.

This all comes on the heals of the company pulling its super bowl advertisement where two "manly" men so consumed by desire for the delectible little chocalate end up in an awkward lady and the tramp type kiss. To remedy this they have to do something manyl so they rip out chest hair. It appears that this offended some of the more radical fagvocasy groups out there? In a Moe Sczylak type moment I have to ask myself "Wha . . . wha . . what?"

The complaints claim that the faces atheletes made while seeing the commercial. The quote is: "This type of jeering from professional sports figures at the sight of two men kissing fuels the kind of anti-gay bullying that haunts countless gay and lesbian school children on playgrounds all across the country" Bull shit. These men reacted as they felt fit. If it made them uncomfortable that is their right to feel that way. Maybe if more of these commercials aired we would become more acustomed to this and the behaviour would not be so damn shocking. Why not comment on the acceptance of millions of folks that over looked the "homosexual" nature of this video and thought the video itself was funny.

Deep breath . . .

So let me get this straight . . . Two straight men can not be appalled by doing something that they do not normally do. Would hunters be up in arms, if a commercial aired where someone accidentally killed a deer and was upset because that is not something that they normally do? Maybe. Who knows? Do they have a right to be pissed? Of course. But it is ridiculous. I dont think that these groups represent the people that claim to. Do they honestly feel that the homosexual community should be upset by this.

As I said in an earlier post why point out differences when trying to gain acceptance. I'm am by no means saying hide who you are, what you think, or how you feel. If you want to complain, feel free to do so on an individual basis but for a group to stand up and say this offends US as a collective group without checking with those that you represent.

The other bad part of this is that the folks that make the yummy, really satisfying, candy bar didn't have the balls to stand up and keep the commercial on TV. They gave into the presssure. removed the ad, but did not offer an appology. If they originally felt that this commercial was not offensive then stand behind that. Why bail when some people complain. If you really are sorry then you should offer an appology rather than just skating around the issue by pulling the ad.

I know I may seem like a homophobe myself, but I am not. I am just against people bitching about stupid things and pussifying our society.

hats, songs, respect, sports

What an eclectic group of items. Is this a word association, a random word generator, a spastic man with torrets spewing out four words that are unrelated. Of course not. How much fun would that be? Some folks can maybe see where I am going with this pretty easilly I bet, but others will stop reading shortly., if I dont get to the damn point already.

Let me start by offering the definition of hat as listed by websters: a shaped covering for the head, usually with a crown and brim, esp. for wear outdoors. Easy enough and seems clear cut, but . . . . I pose the question to y'all is are doo-rags and bandanas hats? I would say they both of these things loosely fit the definition above since they are shaped coverings for the head. The stipulation about the crown and brim are optional as I read it.

This leads into the real rant. If these items fit the definition of a hat why not take the off during the nation anthem. The contextof this rant comes on the heels of the superbowl. While listening Billy Joel sing the national anthem I noticed countless players wearing 'hats'. Are you so worried about your hair that you dont want to remove the little black piece of fabric sitting on your head, or perhaps these are not hats in your mind. None the less - they are and should be removed.

Moving past those atheletes, we ahve the fans. The people that can't be quiet, or sing along, for 2:34 of repesct for our country and everything we represent. Why would you talk. Is something that pressing? STFU and listen to the words that represent our country!

A letter to those that use toilets

Hey you! Yeah you, Mr sanitary. Yes the one that uses the handly little toilet seat covers when squatting in a public restroom. I am glad that you feel that you ass is so damn clean that you dont want it to touch other ass cooties that may have rested in the same spot only minutes before. Nothing wrong with that at all. But why . . Look at me when I'm talking to you ass face! . . Why do you not know how to flush that same this piece of see-through paper. Why when I hustle into the tiny 4 foot wide stall do I have to see this cover still sitting there so I have to find some awkward way of flushing the damn thing. My choices are limited. Should I use a shoe and kick it in, use TP to give it a nice shove? That is it, all of the avenues I can take, nothing else that is adequate. Oh wait there is one more. I can drag your nice clean heiny back into this stall and force your pencil neck down there to shove it into the bowl with your teeth. Maybe that will make you learn to turn around before exiting and see that the ass-wrap has hit the water.

There is one worse scenario. Non-flushies!! Oh we have all walked into that stall. The one with kids sitting in the water like they are hanging on thanks to life jackets. Push the little fucking handle that is behind your back before walking out of the stall. I would hate to walk into your house. How many months do you go before getting rid of that stuff. How hard is it!! Argh! I hateyou people!
