Psst – posting racist stuff on your facebook profile == teh stupid

People – stuff you put on the Internet can be seen. If you didn’t know that, take Buck Burnette’s example about posting racist stuff to your profile.

Evidently, Mr. Burnette – an offensive lineman for the University of Texas, decided it would be funny to post:

All the hunters gather up. We have a n—-r in the White House.

Uh – only he actually put in the word out there. And then he got kicked off the squad. Yeah. Not smart.

Wait – if you’re “likely to vote” for Obama, your vote shouldn’t count?

What the hell kind of explanation is this:

“This office has received notification from the state of Georgia indicating that you are not a citizen of the United States and therefore, not eligible to vote,” a letter from the Fulton County Department of Registration and Elections said.
But Berry is a U.S. citizen, born in Boston, Massachusetts. She has a passport and a birth certificate to prove it.
The letter, which was dated October 2, gave her a week from the time it was dated to prove her citizenship. There was a problem, though — the letter was postmarked October 9.

Wait – let me get this straight. You’re sent a “if you don’t reply to this letter in one week you won’t get to vote” – and the letter is sent a week after its dated?

WTF? It’s like they’re not even bothering to appear competent in ripping away your right to vote.

Asshat of the day – King Mswati!

How insecure of your own crown do you have to be when you won’t even let people in your country have a meeting/em> about democracy?

And this after having an election to show people how democratic minded you are?

Congratulations, Kind Mswati! Asshat of the day!

Gain promotes – huffing?

This morning I saw the worst commercial. A man driving to the local Quickie Mart, explaining that his pregnant wife got cravings for the “Smell of Gain detergent”.

It shows them driving home with the wife putting her nose up to the bottle detergent, smelling it all the way home, and ends with the “funny” note that “Oh, turns out she’s no longer pregnant anymore- she’s just addicted to the smell of Gain detergent!”

She’s huffing Gain while she’s pregnant – and can’t stop? She was huffing while she was pregnant? What by Blackbeard’s jockey shorts was Gain thinking with this commercial?
