Friday Night Open Thread

ADVERTISEMENTS

I'm sure there's lots of news today besides what we've covered. If you're online tonight, and feel like discussing something else, here's an open thread, all topics welcome.

For those of you watching TV, Big Brother 11 has an interesting development. Seems the house contains several bigoted residents who have made racial, misogynistic and homophobic comments. There's been a pretty big outcry on the entertainment boards and blogs about it. [More...] (In addition to Jeff, there's been Jordan's homophobic and Braden's misogynistic and racist comments. More here.) Braden was up for eviction last night, along with a female African American contestant who complained about his bigotry. The vote was a tie, 5 to 5, with the tie breaker(head of household) casting the tie-breaking vote to evict Braden, but not because of his views.

Pretty depressing. One would hope the younger generation has learned from the mistakes of their elders. Apparently not. Ignorance and bigotry continues.
