I read that AB's stock is down $6.7B this week. Honestly, it's probably a good time to think about buying their stock. You know it will rebound.

I liked the parody Twitter "ok fine we hate gays and trans, please buy our beer."

I didn't see that one.

While there are obviously people who hate gays, trans, etc. that's not what this is all about. It's this:

There was a reddit post today about "why are republicans so upset over a spokesman?" My response was, "Ask Uncle Ben and Aunt Jemimah how they feel about people being upset over a spokesman."

My comment was removed.

The guy who ran over my son was a mouth breathing potato head with that exact facial expression.

I'm biased.

She's clearly not a great GF, and just showed her true colors in a crisis. However, they weren't married, so I don't condemn her.

I don't get the trans comment though?

I think I heard someone sued insurance companies for sexism a while back, for giving girls better rates than boys. So now insurance companies split the difference and girls pay more to cover the more reckless boys.

Ha, if true. Statistics are sexist.

Ok, I didn't know what you had meant. Also, I wonder if that stereotype is true?

It could be that the old 'them' had a shit ass driving record and the new 'them' has a clean one because the connection between the two was not found or hidden. I wonder if it affected their credit score as well.

same SSN though. But dunno if the other data doesn't match.

The person may be under 25 which would help with not being male

It's your job to know your market. I'd say they failed spectacularly.

Putting them on leave, if I were making a bet, is probably some deal they worked out for their silence.

You knew someone was getting fired for this, and in the initial backlash when the Bud Light executives were claiming to not even have knowledge of the campaign, I knew that woman was going to be the scapegoat.
