L.Y.S. wrote:Apparently some neo-Nazis got worked up about a Cheerioscommercial. The little girl in the commercial is a biracial girl who asks her mom if Cheerios are really healthy for your heart. Her white mom of course does the typical sales pitch. The dad, black, wakes up with Cheerios poured on his chest. I thought the commercial to be harmless and cute, but apparently not everyone felt this way. It sparked enough outrage, that Cheerios no longer allows comments under this video on YouTube.
This is the commercialfor anyone who hasn't seen it yet.
Well, that's racists for you...

Awww, that's cute
I meant the commercial. Not the thing about the racists.

People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.
But those letters are not silent.
They're just waiting their turn.

I don't even eat cereal. It's too goddamned expensive nowadays! And full of crap besides: salt, sugar, artificial whotzits

Still, that is a very cute commercial.
