guy fieri is no poo poo one one America's few great public philanthropists and people prefer to hate him for his goofball hairstyle instead of honoring him for all the money he raises for special needs kids and out of work restaurant workers. Plus he feeds firefighters and marries same sex couples.

quote:

"You have to protect Guy from all of his poop jokes," Page says. "Anytime any woman mentioned 'cream,' Guy went into a sexual riff. When cutting the show, you had to tell the editors to watch Guy's eye line, because it's always on breasts."

Fieri also needed protection from homosexuals, or at least advance warning. Early in the show's run, Page got a phone call from Fieri, who'd just walked out of a restaurant in a huff. "Guy had decided that the two men running the restaurant were life partners," Page remembers. "He said, 'You can't send me to talk to gay people without warning! Those people weird me out!'"

"[Fieri's team] were demanding tremendous research from my people, and pictures, but they didn't want to pay for them," Page says. "Guy said to me: 'You know, it's true: Jews are cheap.'"

Such a loveable guy, people just hate that goofball hairstyle!

To be fair 99% of chefs that I know can't help themselves if someone mentions cream, or when there is a sausage delivery, or someone is beating meat with a wooden mallet, or if there is a pair of something.

gerrymandering. all those little tentacles coming out either hold large red populations to offset the blue in the city or hold spill over blue so there is only one blue county. or if ohio is a blue state ( LOL) the tentacles are offsetting a red population county.

i know ohio is a swing state but blue wins in ohio are by <5 points and red are won by 5-10 points.

They're going rename our Denver suburb of Stapleton (also the name of the old airport that used to be there) cause apparently we all conveniently ignored the fact that it was named after our mayor who was a proud member of the KKK. Though these days, they should probably change the whole state name to White Privilege: The State.

they weren't going to initially, because they had a landowner only vote on whether or not to do so. more land = more votes

Wowwwwww. That is some pretty awful poo poo. Nothing hosed up about that in a city with a rampant racial-economic divide!

I think all they've decided thus far is that they're going to rename it. It took massive protests to make them rethink their stance I guess.

i think the vote was just to rename it period, and the voting mechanic was "how many signs/advertisements will you have to change" because Money Is The Only Thing That Matters

Hell, if they want to save costs, having a bunch of “Chris” stickers printed up would be pretty drat cheap. I don’t think that dude was in the KKK.

hi I'm the one poster from Ohio who feels the name should be changed but not to Flavortown.
Columbus was actually called "Franklinton" when it was founded, named for Benjamin Franklin.
It is worth noting that while Franklin did initially own, sell and allow the trade of slaves on his property, in his later years he changed his ways and became an ardent abolitionist.
why not change it to that?

:hmmyes:

Columbus -> Franklin FUCKS

And while it's not in Ohio can we rename Fort Wayne in Indiana to Wayne's Forty?

voting districts don't have to match city boundaries, other than for the city council itself


AFAIK city boundaries are all crazy like that in places where the smaller community votes whether or not to join the city, versus being more uniform in places where the city or state can just annex things.

Nah, luckily the whole city is pretty blue. Most of the state at this point. We're the kind of self congratulatory white liberals who pat ourselves on the back cause "we're the good guys" while silently ignoring the extreme wealth disparity between white people and people color. Which I guess is most US cities these days.
