Open Bar: ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL

[Suu]

I want the ones with the fairies to give out.

On the count of Roger being a beautiful fairy princess.

DO IT.

But have Roger's face floating in the middle.

(AP) - Fox News was battling a potential public relations nightmare this weekend after on air personality Megyn Kelly commented that Samuel L. Jackson is white.

"It's time the liberal media stops pretending that Samuel L. Jackson is black," Kelly said. "He is well spoken. He is affluent. He is successful in his career. Clearly Mr. Jackson is, like all god fearing real Americans, white."

Jackon's attorneys quickly demanded that Fox News retract the statement and take action against Kelly.

"Get that (slang word) woman off your (slang word) station," Jackson himself said in a prepared statement. "I have been called many terrible things in my time by nobody has ever gone so low as to accuse me of being white. Like Jesus, I stand by my skin color and my culture."

Fox News representatives said they would not comment on the issue until they had time to do detailed research into Jackson's racial background.

FUNNY BECAUSE IT'S BELIEVABLE.

Must not make topical comparison...

Nah, dude, I'm just not sure it's clear that "I'll get back to you when I have more information" while a pretty bipedal response... when delivered too late reads like "You're an asshole until further notice. I'm going to do some research and get back to you on whether or not you're still an asshole, but keep in mind that you're an asshole until then."

That's fair. At this point I'm more interested in figuring out what the hell happened. I have an inkling of why I was pissed off at the whole thing, but I want to see specifically how this whole incident fits into it.

Right, but I think it's important to understand that when this is your stated position, you're clearly signalling that your focus is on yourself.

If I felt attacked by you and then read you explaining that you were more interested in why you were pissed off, it would be pretty easy to read "than I am in finding out how I hurt Paes" at the end of that.

Fair, but unless I am mistaken, I have already apologized for stirring up shit. This is what I'm doing now because reading the quotes that Nigel provided in the for Twid thread are over the top.

Maybe I'm not expressing my thoughts clearly, because now I feel like I'm trying to get at something that I can't put together into a sentence, which is more reason for me to handle this later.

I think that broke my brain...

[The Good Reverend Roger]

And I'm not excluding myself from that. I have been a little...touchy lately. But I do try to have the good grace to not bring it here. but you fuckers are making it tough.

Yeah, I know.  When Coyote does it, he's a "solid dude".  When Nigel or I respond, we're making it really tough on you.

But that's because we're chopped liver.
