"we call it newton's LAW because all matter in the universe we've found follows it. But maybe every atom of matter in the Universe is imbued with JUST enough consciousness to decide to be a retaliatory dick every chance it gets!

Go, Google's Programming Language - http://googlesystem.blogspot.com/2009...
I mean. Cool. But, we didn't really need yet another language did we? Couldn't they just have imposed their googliness on python3 or something less drastic? Oh well, I guess it worked for msft with their ol c#. Sigh.

Pair Demand Apology Over Racist Receipt - http://www.dangerousminds.net/index...
Hip-Hop in da House, Kenton and Shey, Jamaican of FF liked this
Is it really racist?
- felix
Racial discrimination? Easily yes. *EDIT* Well, only if they were actually treated differently than other customers
- Shey, Jamaican of FF
I wouldn't say it's discriminatory. It's descriptive and accurate. Maybe not polite, maybe insensitive, but no service has been denied, so there is no discrimination. There seems to be a trend amongst the guardianistas these days to believe that simply MENTIONING the apparent race of a person is racist. It's not. Too many people are too ready to be offended by just about anything. If there were 17 white couples and one black couple in the room with you, how would you point out the black couple?
- Slippy "Threadsbane" Lane
Personally, I wouldn't be THAT offended. But I would hope they had a better way of identifying tables.
- Shey, Jamaican of FF
It even says "Table 18" on there. But still I don't think it's actually racist. In poor taste, yes. Would have maybe used "UPSTAIRS BIG FOREHDS" instead ;)
- Craig Eddy
Erm, why isn't their tables numbered? Seriously, what do they do if the entire restaurant was white males. Upstairs white male at corner left table wearing blue tie and glasses? Edit: oh it is numbered, what is the point then of labeling?
- Sarah Peterman
I'm not a visible minority so I can't really comment. But I'm going to anyway ;). I agree with the comments here that it was more insensitive than anything else. Would it really have ruined your entire evening though? Sounds a bit like dramatics to me.
