Now we are offended by cotton - Kaplony - 09-18-2017 10:50 PM http://nypost.com/2017/09/18/woman-freaks-out-over-hobby-lobbys-raw-cotton-display/ Quote:A Texas woman has been getting ridiculed online for being “too sensitive” after she blasted the arts-and-crafts chain Hobby Lobby for selling faux raw cotton stalks — which she found offensive. Quote:The young woman’s post has garnered over 186,000 comments and has been shared more than 17,000 times — with most calling Rider out for being “oversensitive.” Quote:Strangely, this is the second time in less than a week that cotton has caused an uproar on social media. Now we are offended by cotton - Jjoey52 - 09-18-2017 11:40 PM What offends me is people like the Lipscomb President apologizing for nothing done wrong, just to appease these people looking for anything to throw out there.

What a bunch of nonsense Exactly. Glad I read further to your response before adding my own. Nothing to different to add. Indulging this utter nonsense is why it perpetuates, and why the next Ooooooooffended snowflake feels the need to out-do the last one. My gosh, talk about 1st world bitching and silliness.

RE: Now we are offended by cotton - Native Georgian - 09-19-2017 08:39 AM Quote:“The content of the centerpieces was offensive, and I could have handled the situation with more sensitivity,” Lowry wrote. “I sincerely apologize for the discomfort, anger or disappointment we caused and solicit your forgiveness.”These abject, weeping-and-groveling, I'm-sorry-I-promise-I'll-be-good-from-now-on pleas for forgivenesses are beyond pathetic. Just remember, the fool who wrote those words is not just some random nobody with a blog. It's not even some activist trying to stir the pot. It's the president of a university. A small (4-5k enrollment; ~$70m endowment) university, but still. The lunatics are running the asylum.
