what do you people make of this? http://www.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/americas/04/19/canada.couch.ap/index.html
Chinese translation isnt up to speed Im afraid. Try reading the maunels for all your gadgets made in China.
That poor, offended nigger should sue those bastard communists for hurting her feelings! Funny story, but eh, so what? Boo hoo brown lady?
The Moore family should be granted 1 million dollars in restitution and a lifetime supply of Rice-a-ronie.
This was my favorite part of the article: "Something more has to be done. We don't just need a personal apology, but someone needs to own up to where these labels were made, and someone needs to apologize to all people of color," Moore said. "I had friends over from St. Lucia yesterday and they wouldn't sit on the couch." Isn' that kind of insulting the couch. Don't you know you shouldn't judge a couch based upon the color of its upholstery?
But I do have a lovely chink yellow lamp shade to compliment my wetback brown oak furniture. The honky white walls really bring the look together.
Gee... One wonders why she didn't return the thing & demand a refund if she's so offended. Ah ! Lawsuit's got more profit potential. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
*ALERT* The couch just said he is sorry to Al Sharpton. Jesse Jackson is reportadely portesting outside a New York Art Vans!
And the Justice Brothers, the Firm of Jackson & Sharpton will handle the Suite for all the money, they will only take 2/3rds of the extortion, oh excuse me the settlement.
As long as they get the minimum of 4 front pages and get to take no responsibility at all for statements convicting the couch before the trial even starts.
Then Al will go shake hands with Jay Z congradulating him on his new album. The Albums first single, "hop on my nuts, couch" has been steadily climbing the charts.
heh that was in the toronto star about 2 weeks ago. You shoulda seen how pissed she looked then. Her kid found it and was like "mommy was is a nig...nigg...niggaaar?" You guys gotta understand something, In Canada the only city with any kind of demographic for people with african or more like jamacian background IS Toronto. And basically from what I have seen and know personally, they are treated with about 100X more respect than in the states. That is they are treated very well, in toronto there might not even be a majority of "white" people and certainly it is far less than 50% of the population. Truely a cosmopolitan city. This mother was right to be pissed , but not at the store or the distributor. I DO believe that the store owner had never really heard the word nigger before. The only way would be if he watched north american movies or rather videos. East Indians usually just watch bollywood stuff here.
That is one strange translation, even from an "old" dictionary (pre WWII?). That's not a color name in the English of my midwestern US vernacular and never has been AFAIK - I've never heard or read it, anyway. A better name, using an actual color term, might be "Baby-shit brown".
