“Hey K-Fed….quit being a wimp!! You did GOOD!!!”
Dear God in heaven, the PC police and multinational guilt trippers are out in force and we are losing!!.
Political Correctness, the one true Naziism of our times is striking again, and the last person on the planet I thought would give in is doing just that. And FOR NO GOOD REASON!!!
Kevin Federline also known as Fed-Ex also known as the Ex Mr. Britney Spears is apologizing for finally doing something really good. A man known for accomplishing nothing in life other than bedding pop princess Britney Spears at least twice did a funny, smart and charmingly self deprecating commercial for Nationwide Mutual Insurance. In the commercial he portrays a ‘rap star’ wanna-be who is still a fry cook. And, as an added touch of cool, he used his own name in an effort to poke fun at his own situation.
BUT!!!
But the American National Restaurant Association is crying foul and saying he is demeaning restaurant workers. Fry cooks at McDonalds / Burger King / ‘fill in the blanks with your favorite fast food restaurant’. This is absolute bullshit. The problem you and I should have with this situation is that K-Fed is apologizing.
Damn I hate this PC shit.
Here’s how I see it, which therefore is the correct way to see it. I would put it to the Restaurant Association to find me one, just one, fry cook who wouldn’t rather be a rich and famous rap star. C’mon, you ALL know I’m right. And so all the commercial was doing was having fun with what….? You know where I’m going don’t you? What was the commercial portraying?
Two words: “THE TRUTH”
And yet here is Mr. Federline and the Nationwide Mutual Insurance apologizing for telling the truth. And there people, is why political correctness is so fucking dangerous. Political correctness has us all living in fear of the truth, lest some dumb shit choose to personally misinterpret something and convince himself or herself that they should be offended by it.
And so I urge K-Fed and Nationwide Mutual to stand back and cry out, “Fuck off!! If you don’t like the message, don’t buy our insurance. If you don’t like the messenger, don’t buy his records. If you don’t like the commercial, TIVO the damn thing out of your life or go to the washroom and take a piss when it comes on. But quit expecting apologies for no good reason, especially when that reason is the truth.”
If you haven’t seen the commercial yet, keep your eyes open, it’s funny as hell. Kevin Federline deserves a tip of the hat for this one.
There….I feel better. I’ve done my bit for the day to kick some sand in the fascist face of political correctness. Have you?
