Picnic Princess posted:I encountered a YouTube video about the "Jewish American Princess" trope in media, and they kept referring to characters by the acronym. Which they pronounced in the same way as the old slur for Japanese people, and it was very uncomfortable and awkward. A really drunk guy once told me how in to JAPs he was. I was serious weirded out and confused until he explained the Jewish American Princess thing. Then I was weirded out in a different way.

 (in irish slang 'sambo' = 'sandwich', it's completely unrelated to the racist term)

It’s not a sandwich shop. It’s an ambitious but rubbish greengrocer.

I like that they were like no no, N looks too much like a normal N, make it π. That's Greeky. Hmmm, but η looks ALSO looks like N. Make it look like an E. But, y'know. Greeky.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/history/2021/06/11/plantation-white-refugees-juneteenth-event/quote:But most of the event description for a Juneteenth activity at Historic Latta Plantation dealt with White people, seemingly fallen on hard times. “White refugees have been displaced and have a story to tell as well,” it declared. Although I'm not sure if this is dumb or simply malicious hateful racism from people who know precisely what they're doing.

Fishstick posted:What was even the intention behind it? Is it the brand version of "we don't see colour" ? It's right on the label, "During Pride only one rainbow matters." So they graciously give up their rainbow for a while. Or it's a cynical marketing move: Everybody else is slapping rainbows on things, so how do we stand out when we've got rainbows all year? I

While the whole corporate Pride month stuff is a thing, the worst part about that picture is the price label that either someone wasn't paying attention to, or did on purpose.

Why do the white pride Skittles need their own code? Surely they can be stocked and sold interchangeably with last month’s shipment.

I guess. With most promotions like this, the fine print puts a ceiling on the donation and there’s no real doubt that it will be met. The corporation has already decided how much they’re willing to part with. They just want to consumer to feel like the more they buy, the merrier.

You'd think they'd go with black Skittles, both to better represent absence of color and they could even have half an attempt in getting into BLM support.

flavor.flv posted:https://gizmodo.com/burger-kings-halloween-burger-dyes-your-poop-green-and-1734965527 Stuff like that is always a fun surprise, one time I ate enough licorice jelly beans after Easter that my poops turned a beautiful forest green for a while. I spent a bit being freaked out until I thought to take a look at abnormal things I'd eaten recently. See also the time I ate a bunch of fancy potato and beet chips and got an even more medically-unnerving color afterwards.
