Well, I didn't want to name names, but I was in Italy at the time. It was surprising because it was a tourist city right near the train station, so I was surprised that the ads needed interpretation since I'm sure English-speaking tourists were common and English skills a necessity for the location. The only reason I…

I actually think the smart ones who have a point don't associate with Gamer Gate. They don't see the need to be collective in their genuine inquiries about journalism ethics or sexism. Also, those aren't the ones being chauvinistic douche waffles threatening rape and outing peoples personal info.

Bacon and meat look horribly not cooked, bleh

Aw, I upvoted you because I read "pun" instead of "bun".

Can anyone explain to me why the KFC logo has McD's golden arches behind it? Is this some sort of collaboration, or what? McD's is obviously a direct competitor to Yum! brands this is surprising to me.

Fuck gaters.

Psychos sending messages on the internet aren't likely to say such things in public. The mistake here, and what lets them 'win' is saying things like 'what is wrong with the rest of you?' They aren't the rest of anything. They are apart. They are the exception and the freak.

Thank you for your civility, as well! #bringingclassyback

Well it was better than nothing, I will say that, but I was referring to the fact that they failed to mention anything at all about Olivia's hair, and also because the wording they used was more so apologizing to people on twitter that saw the tweet and reacted, instead of apologizing to Viola specifically.

You know what's not really racist? Only recognizing an actress from her most well-known role.

Why? why 'White People?' "You is kind" is her most famous line from one of her most famous roles, so why shouldn't it be quoted? Sure, she was a maid in that story, but if you have read the book or watched the movie, you'll see that she portrayed an amazing character with depth, grace, and dignity. This tweet wasn't…

"9:00 Olivia is rocking her natural hair so you know she's feeling free and relaxed." ...from Jezebel's liveblog of season 4 premiere of scandal...just wanted to point that out.

Somebody made a seemingly neutral comment about a tv character's hair and people are upset? I had no idea this was a thing, honestly, and it scares me that I didn't know, and that I could inadvertently offer insult to someone in ignorance. And someone sees an actor from a movie and links her to her memorable lines…

Not sure where this would land in this "controversy". Shonda Rhimes wanted it on her voicemail. Lots of retweets, no complaints. Consider the source, yes. Like some others here, though, I think this was more about a memorable line than a stereotype.

I can't believe they quoted a line from her most famous film. Can you imagine if anyone said "Life is like a box of chocolates" about Tom Hanks?

Lol, what a bunch of dorks. Thanks for proving a point i made earlier: anti liberal humor is liable to get you fired from your job or to sully your reputation.

I don't have much problem with either of the tweets, I probably would have made similar posts. As for Kerry's hair comment, it's what I thought too. And really we haven't seen Olivia Pope doing business without a certain look or demeanor. I'm sure sentiments have been made about white characters like this too. I'm not…

Seeeeeriously. Every time I see Viola Davis I think of that line. Just like every time I see Brad Pitt I say "WHAT'S IN THE BOXXXX".

I watched Dead Poet Society as a kid and kept expecting Robin Williams to say "Nanoo nanoo", as I was only really familiar with his work as Mork. I didn't realize how racist I was.

Curious middle aged foreign guy here and I have no context at all.
