Sometimes it's hard not to think everything is stupid, because there are things that are so astronomically dumb it defies all logic and reason.
Like this, for example:
Seriously?
It's a paper snowflake. Not a Klan hood.
Retailer Bath & Body Works is apologizing and rushing to pull a holiday-themed candle from its shelves after online users highlighted its label being reminiscent of the white hoods synonymous with the Ku Klux Klan.
The Columbus, Ohio-based company, known for its personal care and home fragrance products, is apologizing to those it offended after the product label on its “Snowed In” candle mistakenly drew comparisons to White supremacist group, which formed after the Civil War.
The label features a close-up shot of a snowflake, highlighting the winter theme of the product, and is set with a maroon-like background.
Sigh.
No. It's a sign a few people on social media who really need hobbies got offended and the company panicked.
This is a more plausible reaction than a KKK hood.
That irony is not lost on us.
People who see hate and racism everywhere are often the ones who spout hate and racism.
THIS.
If only corporations had spines.
They're offensive to people who wake up looking to be offended by something.
YUP.
Some people really need hobbies.
Okay, this is kinda funny.
Nailed it.
It sure does.
It could be, but it's not.
Oh, we're certain a handful of people are really offended by this.
And yes, mad times.
