How Watermelons Became a Racist Trope

It seems as if every few weeks there’s another watermelon controversy. The Boston Herald got in trouble for publishing a cartoon of the White House fence jumper, having made his way into Barack Obama’s bathroom, recommending watermelon-flavored toothpaste to the president. A high-school football coach in Charleston, South Carolina, was briefly fired for a bizarre post-game celebration ritual in which his team smashed a watermelon while making apelike noises. While hosting the National Book Awards, the author Daniel Handler (a.k.a. Lemony Snicket) joked about how his friend Jacqueline Woodson, who had won the young people’s literature award for her memoir Brown Girl Dreaming, was allergic to watermelon. And most recently, activists protesting the killing of Michael Brown were greeted with an ugly display while marching through Rosebud, Missouri, on their way from Ferguson to Jefferson City: malt liquor, fried chicken, a Confederate flag, and, of course, a watermelon.

Wild Turkey bourbon seems too preferential to wild born turkeys as opposed to turkeys born in captivity

*I'm not going to know what to buy at the store if all the names get changed. I already can't find the butter because they got rid of the hot girl on the package.

*Hot Pockets is offensive to teenage boys.

Not yet but they look like that would put you on a high level sugar buzz.

I tried the Fruit Loop poptarts today. They taste like the cereal and even leave that greasy film in your mouth.
