Yeah, as a Giants fan and Washington hater, I want them to own this. There’s absolutely no reason not to.

Guessing, they were probably initially trying to be sensitive, then realized it would Become A Thing, and meekly backpedaled

By the way, I wouldn’t call your exchange “fruitless.” It seems pretty clear that the Giants are more than willing to entertain the notion that the Washington team name is inappropriate.

Why not both?

Do we think this is legitimate sensitivity to the issue, or just some quality trolling? I could be convinced of either.

I wonder if they are aware that the very air they breathe is a chemical?

She also had a lot of very strong opinions about people who put their children in daycare, girls-only trips, and assumes that all child-free people live sad lives and go home and cry every night. She also refused to go on the Pill to ease some of her period issues because her husband had a vasectomy and she didn’t…

Well of course the other kinda is just filled to the brim with toxins and gmo’s and other things I don’t understand.

i only take organic arsenic, myself.

OMG I worked with a woman who was like this. Claimed that she only fed her children organic food (or she’d say all-natural, whatever the hell THAT means, and used the terms interchangeably) because she shopped at Trader Joe’s. I told her that not everything from Trader Joe’s is organic but she wasn’t having any of…

Arsenic is natural so it can’t possibly be bad for you.

I like when I tell people there is more formaldehyde in the pears they eat and they are all “Not in MY pears. Mine are organic!”.

Cyanide and arsenic are natural.

I think it’s really helpful, anyone starts talking about Toxins or Chemicals I know I can just tune out because they have nothing important to say.

You know those same people are using Clorox to clean their bathrooms.

I will take my toxins with a side of GMOs, please!

I want to smack someone when they bust out the word “toxins”

Yup, and the same to people who think ‘natural’ remedies are better than conventional medicine because they have less chemicals. Guess what, idiots, naturally occurring chemicals also exist and the wrong one can be just as bad for you as a man-made one!

“Toxins”
