So it turns out A and B were working together. B was the bait. Quinny is now captured and back in As basement while A and B go to T on Q.

Get the gimp.

A. Bring out the Quinny.

B. But the Quinny's sleeping.

A. Well I guess you're gonna have to go wake him up now, won't you?

Looks like the anti-colonial activists over Melbourne way would like to rename Victoria due to, well, it's colonial links. Whilst this has a snowball's chance in hell of happening it would greatly please me if it did, and also if it changed to name that did not begin with V.

Some of the PC stuff is going way over the top. Amongst things I saw this morning

-Coco Puffs are now racist as it has a monkey for a mascot, Rice Bubbles by comparison has three white guys so Coco Puffs are clearly offensive

Former MP says breakfast cereal Coco Pops is racist

Cereal giant Kellogg’s has been accused of racism by a former MP in Britain who has questioned why its popular breakfast treat Coco Pops is promoted with a monkey, while its white coloured stablemate Rice Krispies has three fair-skinned characters splashed on its box.

-A sketch from David Cross and Bob Odenkirk is now considered offensive and is being pulled from Netflix. In it he's playing a civil rights activist who badly dresses up in black face to try and show the difference between how white and black people are treated at a police stop.

Netflix cancels blackface sketch

Bob Odenkirk and David Cross are the latest celebrities to land themselves in hot water amid the Black Lives Matter movement, after Netflix took down a sketch that featured one of them in blackface.

While I do agree certain things are now offensive in hindsight, the lengths it's being taken to is the opposite extreme.

This is why I hate people.

 

[Dazzler9]

Can we please cancel 60's pop group the Monkees?

 

[Dazzler9]

Isn't there a brewery down south called the Cheeky Monkey? Cancel that too please.

Is campaigning to change a few names *really* the opposite extreme of whatever is on the extreme end of racism? (I assume lynching/genocide)

I mean personally I can't say I really care if a few things change name and a few things aren't available to stream? It doesn't negatively affect my life past a little mild irritation?

 

[larrikin]

And actual monkeys. Cancel them too.

 

[Ochre]

I do find it ironic the people complaining about people being offended always seem to be the ones most offended.

 

[Dazzler9]

Stupidity offends me.

 

[Agent93]

Those are some mighty fine sideburns there Dazzler10

 

[guero]

Yes.

 

[Wild Kelly]

I'm offended in many different ways by the Wayans brothers movie "White Chicks".

 

[Biggie]

Go on, Big man..

Well I think things happen for a reason.

I’m happy at the moment and I’m not looking much further than that right now

 

[Godfather32]

Anyone else concerned for Quinny's welfare

Who was it that was getting stalked again? What happened with that? I want to know because I am a nosy campaigner.

Was it Trucko? By every male on this site? After she revealed she was a female on this site?
