Am calling this one the DemonSheep boogie


DemonSheep is the gift that keeps on giving.

Not only is @demonsheep wrecking havoc on Twitter and terrorizing the natives over at Facebook, it now has it's own theme song: That sheep ain't right.

20,000 extra braaaaaahwnie points to the auteurs for giving Shaun The Sheep and his friends a cameo Eye-wink

STOP HATE SPEECH AGAINST LATINOS
by Willie Colón

STOP HATE SPEECH AGAINST LATINOS
23 December 2009

Feliz Navidad!

The days of subtle discrimination are over. At least for Latinos it is.

The dehumanization of our community is not a laughing matter. This is wholesale discrimination against all Latinos and an affront to any anyone who understands that bias, racism, and xenophobia have no place in our society. The use of a famous Puerto Rican artist’s song is no mistake. The intention is to smear all Latinos is clear. There are “undocumented individuals“ from all countries around the world in the U.S. but with a stroke of the pen they have found a way to make the term Hispanic or Latino equate to ILLEGAL.

Using an internationally popular Spanish language Christmas song as a vehicle, racism has reared its ugly head again.

I take deep umbrage to having songs depicting Latinos as disease carrying sub-humans seeking free human organ transplants. If this song was about any other ethnic group: Italians, Irish, Jewish, African American there would be protests in the streets.

We must demand respect and am asking that the FCC take measures against the use of this musical hate speech. We Latinos should take sanctions against broadcasters that allow this filth to be presented as should we boycott their sponsors.

I love Hitler's hate for Vegemite's new crowdsourced name


I am such a social media nerd I can't stop laughing at this. From, Crowdsourcing Done Wrong: Vegemite iSnack Naming Disaster - Global News - Advertising Age:

More than 48,000 people responded to a call to come up with moniker for the new combination of cream cheese and Vegemite, a popular spread made from yeast extract. The winner, as coined by a Australian web developer who, by his own admission, has his tongue planted firmly in his cheek: iSnack 2.0

Whoever did this needs to get an award of some sort. It's fucking brilliant.
