That it’s bad, Freddy Got Fingered bad. White Chicks bad. Baby Geniuses 2 bad.

The first one was the game that got my six year old 1. into playing video games with his pop and 2. into comics/super heroes. Great memories, he’ll be stoked to check out a new one :)

This is the second deliberately-ignorant Cattelan-bashing piece on Gawker Media within a week. I hope GM fully realises that this is a perpetuation of exactly the same type of wilfully “my ignorance is as good as your informed perspective” genre of non-thought that your writers ascribe to Trump supporters.

I can imagine Mel Brooks making this purchase. Then maybe filming him, Flat Stanley like in a multiple of locations. Selling photos of those and donating the proceeds to the Holocaust Museums. Or the Weisel Center.

Easy to hate? Of course it is. Because the game looks like CRAP.

Call your travel agent. Looks like you need a trip to Thighland.

Look at what the Buck is driving

Does anyone else see the hilarious irony in Captain America driving an SUV made by Ze Germans?!

And yet even the mighty Avengers still can’t see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch, part of this balanced breakfast.

Why aren’t more people commenting about how hilarious it is that a human person said– “Even as the mighty Avengers break into Civil War, their affinity for best-in class, high performance and state of the art technology in their vehicles ties them together.”??

I think we’ve all come to realize that some people really, really, really want to be offended. Constantly.

the result of this kind of untethered manufactured outrage will be that advertisers will be hesitant to use models of color at all. why bother if someone on the internet will find something to raise hell about or interpret some aspect of your ad as ‘racist’ no matter what? you want a photo of an older child cheekily

Yes, the first thing that struck me was that she looked really unhappy.

Clearly that black girl is unable to stand on her own two feet without the stabilization provided by white feminists?

I don’t love the photo choice - it draws odd attention to her, with that pink shirt, but she is so unhappy looking compared to the other girls. I don’t know how much I agree that it was racist, but I do think it’s mediocre ad design, and they could have done better.

Thank you for pointing this out. I was disappointed that Jezebel didn’t mention that ad in their article. I shouldn’t be surprised by that, though.

Usually I scoff at the notion of overzealous “PC culture” (blech, I don’t even like typing it) running out of control....

Not pictured: the Gap Kids ad from just a few years ago wherein a black model was using a white model as an armrest in almost the exact same pose.
