That's gonna be cool in the new Smash Bros. to have them fight. Wonder if they'll make some of these comics extra collectibles in the game. That would be cool.
I remember when they rebooted it on I think PS2. I need to go back and play these, sound like fun.
I dunno how much different games will look at launch on PS4. I remember not being all that impressed by 360/PS3 games when they were first at kiosks, but hey, maybe they'll look great from the get-go this time.
Yay back taxes ... not. And that sucks about warehouse with no AC. I actually have access to my first freelance job's warehouse, but I only just got asked to come in a couple weeks ago and then they didn't need anyone. So I think I might go back to waiting tables in heat. Only job I've ever had that involved AC was CA/Assistant Hall Director in the dorms, and hopefully I can get a GA job if I go back. I'm overdue for a desk job. lol
Of course, my mom is paying me $200 if I can paint a lot of the house. Only just got most of the sanding done. Oy. lol
I remember that game! Good times.
And Blake, that sucks.
I did not get it, but I found another freelance gig, and am currently getting everything together for an MBA in the fall. Thank you.
Here's what she said.
'In that deposition, Jackson said she once asked Deen what she wanted servers to wear for a plantation-style wedding. Jackson said Deen responded by saying quote "What I'd really like is for a bunch of little n-words to wear long sleeves, white shirts, and black shorts and bow ties."
However, Deen denies that allegation. She recalls being impressed by a restaurant in Tennessee that represented a certain "era in American history."
She said, "The whole entire waitstaff was middle-aged black men, and they had on beautiful white jackets with a black bow tie. I mean, it was really impressive. And I remember saying I would love to have servers like that, I said, but I would be afraid somebody would misinterpret."
When the attorney questioned Deen about the era she was referring to, he seemed to lead her to say pre-civil war, which lead to this statement, "Well, it was not only black men, it was black women. I would say that they were slaves. But I did not mean anything derogatory by saying that I loved their look and their professionalism."'

Do with that what you will.
Like I said in one of my comments, yeah, the Paula Deen thing is a throwaway story, I'm more just poking fun at that awful picture I keep seeing of her they keep using.
Apparently though, the case against her is more about the combination of past racial slurs, something about a wedding with all black staff that people are comparing to a plantation setting, and a deposition about racial/sexual harrassment in the workplace. The racial slur I'd agree we should forgive if she's changed, but maybe the lawsuit is about the fact she hasn't and it's affected her workers. But I don't know the outcome of that lawsuit, so for right now, I'm sticking to just making fun of that picture.
As for Zimmerman, I agree that if someone was beating on me, I'd probably use self defense in the moment; but at the same time if someone was chasing me with a gun and caught up to me, I might also start hitting them out of self-defense.
I love the Onion.
