Is this Hallmark card racist? (Answer: hell no. What the hell were these civil rights leaders thinking?)
Ladies, a true Casanova is trolling Facebook, e-mailing random singles with his seductive poetry.
Did you guys hear that "Justin Bieber Syphilis" was the #1 trending topic on Google on Sunday night? Yeah, that's because 4Chan decided to rig the vote just to mess with him.
The book of odds has some odd statistics about erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation and crooked weiners.
Finally, Nintendo has answered our prayers about bringing Goldeneye to the Wii. Based on this preliminary trailer, it looks like Craig will replace Brosnan and most of the original levels will be tweaked.
Chat Roulette (quick survey: do any of you still use it?) is working on software that will automatically detect and block users who expose themselves. Also, those who constantly next will have their accounts frozen or banned.
And this one requires the full two paragraphs from the orginal source:
The Log Cabin Republicans of Los Angeles are holding a special event at this weekend's gay pride festival in L.A.: A tea bag toss!
Contestants can buy a tea bag and win a prize if they toss it into the open "mouths" of three politicians: gubernatorial candidate Jerry Brown (D), House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Sarah Palin.

I couldn't hear an "R". Could anyone else? Clearly the NAACP is just looking for something to complain about so they can get some more publicity.
um... Black hole = theoretical astrophysics. Does not = racial slur.
please don't demean yourselves by picking a fight with a greeting card, people.
I still refuse to relate to the Justin Bieber phenomenon. In my mind, he does not exist.
Um..yah. I heard whole too. And if I can hear whole and not whore through a ear bud on my computer of a recording of the actual recording, that makes me think this is utter BS. How sad.
@jesse hit the nail on the head. And notice, the only people in the story were OLD, and probably more apt to look for perceived slights against them. Play that card for any number of younger African Americans and I doubt they would have any reaction to it.
Sadly, I see where this is going. I remember the "controversy" around the use of the word niggardly (a synonym for parsimonious or stingy) in 1999. Everybody -- black, white and otherwise -- who was half-educated understood that it wasn't offensive, but folks debated whether we should stop using the word, essentially to protect the sensibilities of the uneducated and the willfully stupid among us.
