The best part of all this is that Clorox sales will be off the charts this week.


Yep. By crying about perceived bullying, or whatever they call it, Clorox gets free exposure.

Guess what genius, if you poured bleach on an emoji (which by the way for your pea sized brain is a pixelated computer animation), enlighten me as to what would happen? If they were actually alive, they'd die or be severely injured, not turn white.

I can't believe I'm actually having to explain this in some logical way. It is you though, one of the dumbest posters to grace this message board.

If you don't see why Clorox apologized and can't see the offensiveness of this tweet, then you are part of the American problem. So quick to dismiss everything as white guilt instead of empathazing


This is STUPID and I really hope you're joking. But it you're not , I'll be happy to buy you a one way ticket back to your motherland..

That's pathetic. I'm not sure why or even how we let such a small group of people control us in such an idiotic way.

They have a point! Where is the cleaning solution that turns everything black?

Even if they didn't mean the apology, sometimes it's good pr to tell a little black lie.

The problem is that instead of stepping up and saying to grow up and get over it, there have been way to many times that folks have backed down and quickly apologized and tip toed around the PC stuff.

This is what happens when you become so terrified to offend someone.

You begin apologizing just in case an offense may have occurred



exactly. clorox should have tweeted back frick you a-hole. keep talking shite and Im gonna need clorox to cleanup the mess I make of your face.

I see enough of this shite on Tumblr.

Though it never really gets AS bad as the examples on TumblrInAction (trigger word: stupidity)....

Not me. I wish one corporation would have the gall to stand up to this political correctness to the point of downright rebellion. I wish one of these corporations would have a PR response something like: "to each his own" or something equivalent-- a subtle "frick you, then" to all of the "pussies and wussies"(bob Dylan ain't scared to say it). I know I would be one of MANY to support such a stance by going out of my way to buy their product.

I'm not pissed or offended but the main highlight of this emoji update was the racial diversity options. So, it's a pretty fricking stupid tweet and the first thing I thought of when seeing it was how bad they just fricked up.
