The Cellar - The 'What the fuck!' thread

When the new chocolate-coloured sofa set was delivered to her Brampton home, Doris Moore was stunned to see packing labels describing the shade as “Nigger-brown.”

Her 7-year-old daughter pointed out the label just after the delivery men left.

“She’s very curious and she started reading the labels,” Moore explained. “She said, `Mommy, what is nig … ger brown?”

But no real Black kid would sit at that uncool desk until it had rims, a new paint job, tinted windows and a thumpin' stereo. ;) ;) ;)

I like the fringe that's been added to the packing label. Quite the classy touch.

Seriously, "Nigger-brown?" That's just wrong.

On of our pcs will not connect to the internet through the wireless router- I am sure my husband has fantasized about doing exactly that to it

The term is "African-American brown".

Re: Tree Guy ... wasn't there an IotD of someone with a similar condition some time wayyyyyy back?

Having that condition would completely suck. Poor guy.

Yes, there was. But it wasn't that long ago. In the last year, I think. Maybe in the last 6 months.
