What’s depressing is that we’re getting demolished in every single one of those wars. And worse we’re not even putting up a fight!

Our side desperately needs a leader or two who can shake us out of our stupor and mobilize us into an army of activists. Remember the tea party days? Back them we had them on the run. We need to revive that passion.

In a way the election of Trump has lulled us to sleep. We thought we won and Trump would single handedly take care of business. Meanwhile Trump’s victory had the opposite effect on the left, it energized them like nothing before.

I went looking for more Gillette sports girls. Found this pretty "Korean Race Queen," Kim Ha Eum at the Korean F1 race...

Since she is a Race Queen, the next logical search was for "Gillette Race Queens." Whoops, BIG MISTAKE. Yuck.

Excellent response to all of her vapid points.

Yes, there is a broad disrespect for any citizen over 50, but it is especially bad for white males over 50. I’ve noticed this coarseness growing over a couple decades.

Wow...those guys are on top of their game! That is so cool. Let’s hope they kick Gillette’s ass while he is down.

I just posted it so we are aware of what the other side is saying about Gillette. We need to know the enemy.

Yep. Already switched to The Spice House. She’s the sister in the family; the business was split between the siblings when the parents passed on. (I can’t recommend their ‘Sunny Paris’ blend enough. Excellent on fish and chicken; awesome in an egg dish.

I don’t know her politics and she never reveals them...because she’s an excellent Businesswoman! :)

I grew up in Milwaukee. Went to The Spice House as a kid with my family and did the Usinger’s and Brewery Tours whenever guests were in town. I still love Water Street; great food and great beer! And I can’t count how many Opening Days we spent at Brown County Stadium (now, Miller Park) to see the Brewers and/or the Packers on alternate weeks w/Green Bay. :)

The Spice House always had the PERFECT spices for ‘Sausage Day’ at Grandma’s house; an annual event much like The Running of The Bulls, LOL! I have all of her equipment, now. Making our own bear and elk brats thanks to Beau’s awesome hunting skills is on the agenda this winter...and there will be NO Penzey’s spices in any of them! *P-too-ie*

It takes a LOT to annoy me; sanctimonious ‘businessman’ Bill Penzey sure did! Jerk. Pass it on, LOL!

I will pass it on to my brother who uses Penzy.

I used to watch the Braves play baseball at that stadium.

It’s a 2 way street. Want more respect? Earn it. Quit acting like whores,a and you won’t be treated like whores. You reap what you sow. Learn that modesty is often more appealing than bane exhibitionism.

“The future looks pretty bleak.”

I don’t think so. What we’re seeing is screaming freak shows in liberal sh*tholes that are magnified by the psychos in the neo-nazi media.

All the womansplaining in the world isn’t going to help Gillette. They stepped in it pretty big, and their division president will have some womansplaining of his own to do in front of the P&G CEO and the board next quarter when revenue reviews come up.

A better article from 2013 by someone that isn’t a nut:

It’s a Man’s World and Always Will Be:

The modern economy is a male epic, in which women have found a productive role — but women were not its author

By Camille Paglia Dec. 16, 2013

“A gorgeous girl walking by dressed like that...as IF men weren’t supposed to notice her. Then the “awoke” black dude dressing down his Neanderthal white friend for noticing.”

The proper male response should have been the white guy offering the black dude a coupon for Depends. Then admonish him to act like a man and not a femi-nazi weenie.

“It’s depressing the number of wars we’re in the middle of.
Race wars, gender wars, class wars, religious wars, cultural wars...”

And we’re losing all of them.

Why does Gillette not do an ad with sexually explicit, lyrically misogynistic, Rap music playing? /r
