I guess a light post has been overdue for a while after you've had to digest lump after lump of poorly written prose for several days. Anyway, I just read on the BBC how Dunkin Donuts had to pull an ad because of how Racheal Ray dresses like a terrorist. Hmmm. Guess her stylist is going to lose her job. I'm not going to delve into politics but post my favorite comments that I found:
Along the same lines, I suppose we should stop showing faces in all advertisements, as it is well known that all terrorists have faces. Clearly, by showing even a single face, we are also supporting terrorism. Shame on Dunkin' Donuts for submitting to the ignorant populous.

Look at those eyes, dark brown, very dark brown...makes you shudder. She is a terrorist ..no doubt.

The black and white scarf is part of the traditional attire of the Palestinian, Lebanese, Jordanian Arabs. The same way the red and white scarf is for Saudi, Omani, Bahraini Arabs. This is like saying that UPS should change its brown uniform because it pleases the Hitler Youth.
