I think people should be able to say whatever they want whenever they want, but they then need to take responsibility if what they say gets them labelled as a racist, ruins their life, or gets their rear end kicked.

dirksteadfast posted:Have we passed the point where this kind of mistake is the norm for companies? I remember it being a bigger problem a few years ago but nowadays it doesn't seem to happen as much. Don't tell me corporations have actually learned something about social media. They've had Some of Their Best People working on how to use social media for as long as social media has been beyond a certain critical mass of popularity. Facebook has over a billion users and something like 1/5 people has a Twitter account. You can get a message out instantaneously and get a poo poo load of quick and easy word of mouth if you manage to go viral. There's probably a team of programmers somewhere figuring out how to make a neural network that generates viral tweets. It's like the advertising arms race but with an extra tentacle.

How do you feel about the use of Ritardando  saw a girl start screaming at band kids because trying to figure out how to sync up the ritardando in their song and that was offensive

The euphemism treadmill is an inevitability - you can yell as much as you want but the treadmill won't stop and people won't stop running.

Not really a dumb move but this is where i go for ad talk. Anyways, there's a tressume ad where when the song starts the beat immediately makes me think it's going to be the lone otakus song. Every time.

 "My friend and her fiancé were on her way to their wedding in Iceland. Their flight from Washington DC was delayed, setting them up for a missed connection in New York. They were re-routed via Paris and Berlin, but despite constant contact with Delta Airlines to make sure their luggage wound up in the right place, the airline washed their hands of the situation. They finally tracked down their luggage themselves, abandoned on a baggage carousel in Frankfurt 1500 miles away. Delta is currently telling them to take the issue up with the last carrier, Air Berlin, who never even touched their luggage." any publicity is good publicity, right?

It's what my fiancé and I are planning on doing (to a different country than Iceland, but still).

It's what my fiancé and I are planning on doing (to a different country than Iceland, but still). My wife and I eloped in Alaska. We just carried on our wedding clothes instead of checking them. We did not want to risk losing bags even though we had a direct flight.
