Anyone else heard about this? I guess I missed it since it was a week ago now.

We use Hipchat at work, and the emoticon for (feelsgoodman) and (feelsbadman) used to show Pepe. Apparently he's now a racist hate symbol, so they've replaced it with John Goodman. I only tried using it again this morning before I realised and went to find out why.

The app didn't even use a 'hateful' version, it was a fucking frog, yet they removed it anyway. So damn spineless.

Then they wonder about people revolting with their vote. Political correctness everywhere in some countries, from the big things to the little things.

This must be one of the most ridiculous points in the history of human politics. Mind Is Full Of Fuck


"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."
