That’s so ####ing bad...
I’m still laughing.
What? No watermelon?................
I used to work with this nice but HUGE guy, Shea. He weighed about 400.
One day while I was with 2 other workers, one of them asked me where Shea was.
We were on the 49th floor of Rockefeller plaza and I pointed to the empire state building.
They both tried SO HARD not to laugh but to no avail :)
On an episode of “Sanford & Son”, back in the early 70’s, Redd Foxes character, Fred is talking to one of his buddies about some neighborhood guys wife who was “so ugly, you could mash her face down in some dough and make gorilla cookies!”
We’ve gone backwards as a society............
I hope she is cute. If so, she will land on her feet.
This should be a minor faux paux, but in today’s culture it will get someone banished for life.
When I was in high school there was a guy with big ears whom everyone called ‘monkey’.....decades ago. I’m NOT at all in favor of unkind nick names of epithets.
Wait a minute.... doesn’t the left say that we all evolved from apes??
Fred used gorilla or worse to describe Esther all the time.
Some of the funniest moments on TV.
Their exchanges would never be tolerated today.
And if anyone had gone to HR and told them what I did I would have been let go.
I really wanted her to be ugly. She’s cute as a button. I give her a pass.
I watch All In The family and Sanford & Son almost every night.
I can’t believe how Fred made jokes about black people back then. He made jokes about the stereotypical blacks in every episode.
Self deprecating humor.
He even used the N word in a episode and so did Esther!.........
Remember back when the TV newscasters would look straight in the camera, read the news, finish a story, pass the baton to the weatherman who would give you the weather, pass to the Sports desk etc etc etc
The news would be reported and the show was over.
Long about late 60s, early 70s we found the the anchors were LIARS and were skewing the news and it sure took a lot to convince their ‘fans’....etc
Today, we need two chicks- VERY easy on the eyes, at least one minority of sorts, girl minority a bonus to station, the ‘white’ guy is now the anomaly
BUT
Today they have to put on the ‘proper’ face for a story, give their own personal opinion, discuss with the co host/anchor, banty back and forth about the family or whatever.
In a way guess it is necessary as the live ‘channels’ are starting with their first news at 4 and carrying it on till the ‘national news’ comes on in the 6 hour.
then 3 hours in the AM ....
I personally stopped the ‘National/World news’ when they started alerting us to what the news would be 3 days from now, ie news became a SHOW, with entertainment etc...
Damned it !!! Grow a Spine will Ya Lady...
It’s OK if THEY SAY OR DO IT...
The “not guilty” perp...
I went to her Fb page. Her husband looks gay and he is ..well lets say he really, really married up.
Didnt they call Bush a monkey? Chimp not gorilla. Thats ok.
Chimpy McBushitler.
