-1 | |||||

| vagina | ||||||
| LOLOLOLOL | ||||||
| this looks rediculously fake | ||||||
| http://rotate.ytmnd.com/ | ||||||
| Needs more Vengaboys. | ||||||
| Cue: "THAT'S RACIST!!" kid from Wonder Showzen. | ||||||
| Funny | ||||||
| its real yamo and hobag45 you are one retatded mothaf**ka, nice spot man | ||||||
| hobag45 is a f*cking moron. | ||||||
| Barbeque was developed in the poverty of the South prior to the Civil War and became part of black culture there. This is not racist, and you FAIL. | ||||||
| Heh | ||||||
| the "dark and lovely relaxtion kit" is the best part... | ||||||
| what, no chicken and waffles? | ||||||
| IF THEY KILL PEOPLE FOR SAYING THE WORD n****r THAT JUST GOES TO PROVE MORE THAN ANYTHING THAT THEY ARE ALL DIRTY UNEDUCATED VIOLENT f*ckS WHO SHOULD BE WIPED OFF THE PLANET | ||||||
| NICE FIND and hobag SHUT YOUR f*ckING GOD DAMN f*ck TARD FACE YOU f*ck!!!1111111 | ||||||
| lol | ||||||
| n*gg* wheres my grits? | ||||||
| But is it real? | ||||||
| 5 | ||||||
| lol, ribs, hair relaxer, jeri curl cream for the manley menz, and infamous corn muffins. They sure have a target demographic | ||||||
| it takes some pretty amazing visuals/text to compenstae for benny hill. yours don't make the grade. a very deserved One. | ||||||
| Cornbread, FTW? | ||||||
| What's wrong with cornbread and ribs?
That sounds great. | ||||||
| Where is the fried chicken | ||||||
| my god people are idiots. i fived it, lol | ||||||
| 1'd for overplayed music and text covers too much of the image. | ||||||
| I fail to see the racism. |
-1 | |||||
| Needs better music. If you don't get this, don't 1 it just because you don't see what's going on. =P | ||||||
| thats f*cked up lol | ||||||
| it would have been racist if they'd advertised fried chicken and 40 ounce malt liquor. | ||||||
| ok, maybe it's not technically racist ... but what should he have called it?
Giantisgivingintostereotypes.ytmnd.com? | ||||||
| 1'd cuz blacks get a history month. | ||||||
| No fried chicken? Or bling? | ||||||
| i dont understand how people can give this a poor rating. its great. | ||||||
| hahaha cornbread | ||||||
| Changed pic slightly, added different music. Yar! | ||||||
| loved it, to bad emos are giving you 1's |
+1 | |||||
| Unless it's advertising 40's and KFC it's hardly racist... I mean who the f' doesn't like ribs?? | ||||||
| Ok, I work at a supermarket and this isn't racist. Black people buy corn muffin mix a HELLUVA lot more often then white people, they also buy ribs more often. And the fried chicken and watermelon sterotype? Isn't a stereotype. This isn't racism, they're s | ||||||
| elling products based on market trends. Grow up. | ||||||
| ^^^maybe your sense of humor should grow up? har har! I wasn't aware there were so many hard-asses here. | ||||||
| I'm sort of scared at what a "dark and lovely relaxer kit" is. | ||||||
| Normally racism earns a 5, but this is just dumb. if it was watermelon and Fried chicken, you'd get a five to the max. This is a stretch and worthy of this one. | ||||||
| racism |?r??siz?m| noun the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, esp. so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races. | ||||||
| if you fail to see the racism, realize that the products advertised are stereotypically associated with black people. Since the ad characterizes these items to the black race, it is racism. | ||||||
| What, those n****rs like their corn muffins. | ||||||
| Reinhart, it IS racism because they specifically label the items as [black items], saying that that they are characteristic to the race. Associating specific characteristics (stereotypes) to all people of a specific race IS racism. | ||||||
| Black History month is already racist. |
+1 | |||||
| ^^^very true...but wheres the watermelon and grape soda? |
+1 | |||||
| omg, thanks for circling the items for all the idiots who don't get it! |
+1 | |||||
| Actually, further down in the ad is an advertisement for Collard greens! haha! should I retake the pic? | ||||||
| 5'd for music | ||||||
| How are corn muffins and porkchops racist? Fried chicken is the only real "racist" food out there that goes with black people. What, is it because those things come from a farm? Everything you eat comes from a farm you stupid f*cking idiots. | ||||||
| This is f*cking stupid. It would be funny if it was fried chicken, watermelon and grape juice. But it's not. So its stupid. | ||||||
| Soulfood ftw | ||||||
| MMMMMMMmmmmmmm cornbread | ||||||
| thats retarded its the name of the brand | ||||||
| not racist. LOL you lose. | ||||||
| Roflcopters. | ||||||
| 1, and im tired of white boys tryin to sound cool by sayin n****r. i beat you wouldnt be talkin that way with a black guy standin next to you. | ||||||
| I think any of you morons saying it's not "racist" (here's a clue - it's a f*cking joke you cockmunching dipsh*ts) need to see the posts made by kenjidan and cheekygirl. thanks to everyone else for making my FIRST ytmnd on the top 15 :) | ||||||
| for gods sakes, it's not racism, it's just marketing (which is evil enough, I grant you) - corn muffins taste good, spareribs taste good | ||||||
| sewer rat may taste like pumpkin pie, but i'd never know cuz i wouldn't eat the filthy motherf*cker ;) | ||||||
| Damn it i saw this circular in last weeks paper and i forgot to ytmnd it. 5/5 | ||||||
| hey you stole my cloudsong! | ||||||
| Unfunny and not racist. Minorities FTW. | ||||||
| I don't get it... | ||||||
| LMFAO the music instantly gets a 5, i was like wtf, then i heard it, and i started laughing like mad. LMFAO | ||||||
| Its funny, I registered here at ytmnd just to assure you this is real. I saw this site this morning, and then got ready and went to work. Where do I work? Giant. I saw it in the ad at work, and showed two of my black coworkers. They didn't seem too p | ||||||
| So would an ad featuring Corned Beef and Guiness, and potatoes for St. Patricks Day also be OMG RACISM? | ||||||
| So if certain foods become part of an ethnicities history by way of geography or economics, associating those foods with that ethnicity is racist? I think not. | ||||||
| 5, because bluegrass kicks ass. | ||||||
| Lol, some people on this site are f*cking stupid. 5'd for drawing said stupids out of the woodwork to prove themselves. | ||||||
| last i checked "corn fed" was an insult for "white boys." if there was catfish, fried chicken, and grape soda on sale...then I'd buy into the whole racist gag. | ||||||
| I give it a four mainly because you're funny for making this ytmnd not that this ytmnd is any good. Last Saturday was the Chinese new year and a grocery store I went to in a chinese part of town was celebrating with half off noodles, does that make them r | ||||||
| I agree with TehPeak, Im actually of Irish decent and I DO eat cornbeef and potatoes, its a tradition in my family, so when people say "LOL YOU IRISH EAT POTATOS !!" I say "LOL I KNOW!!" | ||||||
| Doesn't make sense. 1'd. Humor must make sense in less than an hour. | ||||||
| this would only be funnier if fried chicken adn watermelon weere also there | ||||||
| funny, but more like stereotypes, not racism | ||||||
| I don't see the racism. | ||||||
| Unfunny and unworthy. LOL THEY CELEBRATE CHINESE NEW YEARS WITH RICE! RACISM! Chinese people don't all like rice! This makes no sense. And I didn't even get the references as a non-American. | ||||||
| Hey f*ckmuffin's, cornbread and pork ribs are a typical southern BLACK dish. It's not the creators fault that you are a northern douchbag who only sees your own local stereotypes od fried chicken. 5'd | ||||||
| besides, he's just pointing out that those two foods are being associated with black history month in the flyer | ||||||
| YIDDISH CUP. | ||||||
| What's the joke here? | ||||||
| That's stupid. I don't see the racism there. Yes, I know my history, thank you. I still don't see why, in my opinion. | ||||||
| very sweet, but missing fried chicken, watermellon and welfare checks, goes along with this one perfectly http://fatniggporter.ytmnd.com/ | ||||||
| 5 for hair relaxer kit.
nappy *ss roots... | ||||||
| What made me laugh was the fact I work at giants :D | ||||||
| Jiffy Mix, 3 for a buck? Damn, we don't get it that cheap here, and they MAKE the stuff here! | ||||||
| But... is it racist if it's true??? | ||||||
| TehPeak,
People of Ireland and Scotland are not a race. They are simply a nation. | ||||||
| 1 because you have no idea what racism is. | ||||||
| Wow took me a minute to get it, but I'm amused. | ||||||
| That's pretty good lol. | ||||||
| Hoh-lee crap. I work at a Giant Landover location(different Giant, same parent company). My Giant company is smart enough to not do that. | ||||||
| Cheap corn muffins. AWESOME. | ||||||
| took me a loooonnnnggg time to get it....i had to read all the comments...and its a good ytmnd..but i didnt laugh really... | ||||||
| dueling banjos 4 teh win | ||||||
| The hair relaxer could be seen as racist. But you obviously didn't "get" that. | ||||||
| omg i took one more look at it and i really truly "got it" thats great | ||||||
| TehPeak and Cento got it right. | ||||||
| Just to let you guys know, theres a third row of products missing. On the far right is collard greens. And technically, no, its not racist, but it is sterotypical. | ||||||
| TehPeak, yes. It would be racism. Many people here seem have to have the misconception that racism only has a negative form. As aforementioned, racism is simply associating characteristics to all members of a race whether they are offensive or have a legi | ||||||
| -legitimate basis, such as cultural foods. | ||||||
| "Barbeque was developed in the poverty of the South prior to the Civil War and became part of
black culture there. This is not racist, and you FAIL." QTF. Not racist at all. This YTMND fails to deliver. Giant owns. | ||||||
| This YTMND is unfunny. It's also blatantly fake. | ||||||
| Unfortunately, the true definition of racism is widely misunderstood due to the extensive misuse of the word, and is typically incorrectly taken as meaning derogatory or insolent in all cases. | ||||||
| Culturally and stereotypically it is generally understood that items such as "pork ribs" and "cornbread" are African American food items. Since Giant is associating those characteristics to the black race, racism exists. | ||||||
| fails for not having chicken or watermelon | ||||||
| A. This looks fake.
B. So what? So they market products to a group that typically buys them. That's perfectly good business sense genious. | ||||||
| 5 cause i used to work at giant XD | ||||||
| lol, black people | ||||||
| all this racisim is killing me!!!!!!!!!!!!!111!!!!!1!!1111!!!!!! | ||||||
| A couple of things. No, despite how cheaply made it is, this circular is not fake. And, also, good business sense is not insulting the people you are selling to. | ||||||
| http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f59/furlonium/DSCN0218.jpg
There you go. Make fun of ME, if you must, but the ad is real. Go to hell. | ||||||
| f*cking hilarious | ||||||
| Seeing the circular there reminds me of the last forgotten item... COCOA butter. | ||||||
| 5'd | ||||||
| you suck you f*cking n****r coon | ||||||
| Took me so long to figure out why this was racist, it has no humor. retailers go by market trends for these things. If it was something more obvious i'd have 5'd it. | ||||||
| lol, racism
| ||||||
| "It's not the
creators fault that you are a northern douchbag who only sees your own local stereotypes." Yes it is. He's responsible to make a ytmnd funny to all. If it isn't funny whatsoever to us, we have every right to 1 it. | ||||||
| ^^ Warcraft is right - not everyone here is as cultured as they should be ;) so not everyone's gonna get the joke. It's alright - I enjoyed my place in the spotlight. | ||||||
| Kenjidan i do agree with you, but as you pointed most people cannot separate the word racism from it's negative connotation. I don't believe this ad is remotely offensive | ||||||
| It's sad to see how far political correctness has permeated our society. | ||||||
| Lehanna, you say yourself that the food is a tradionatal southern BLACK dish. So food that has a place in black traditions and history being on sale in honor of black history month is offensive?!? WTF? | ||||||
| TehPeak, get a life and quit 1'ing me over and over. | ||||||
| If there's one thing YTMND desperately needs more of, it's banjo. | ||||||
