Oh, yes! Don't you love that age? "Why?...why?...why?...but why?" I have a couple kiddos there myself! Thanks for the comment on my Hanks post. Doesn't that just make you sad? Who else do you "boycott"?
I boycott (based on comments said/views expressed):
Tim Robbins
Susan Sarandon
Alex Baldwin
Kim Basinger
Rosie O'Donnell
Joy Behard
Dentzel Washington
Those are the ones off the top of my head. There are very few from the entertainment world though that I have respect for. Most of them have passed away. :-)
I agree HANDS DOWN with Tim, Susan, Rosie & Joy!!! I haven't heard about Alec Baldwin though or Denzel Washington ("Nooooooo") they were a couple of my fav's too! What'd they say or do?
I know that Alec Baldwin has made MANY comments regarding President Bush and how the country was "going to go to hell" if he was elected (both presidencies.) He said he was going to move out of the country and never move back. (Which never happens-reminds me of a 3 year old threat.)
Dentzel made similar remarks as well regarding the country and thought that President Hugo Chavez was right about our country and was supporting his campaign. (If I am wrong about that one, it has been a few years since it happened.)
So they were more remarks about the our country, but enough to get me upset at them!
Speaking of boycott's, we were eating dinner with my husbands family and we got talking about commercials and how bad they are becoming. They were shocked when we told them that we boycott businesses and I write their corporate offices telling them that due to their advertising we were no longer going to give them our business. T
I was picking up some Degree deodorant for Jessica and it had the letters 'OMG'. I thought that was a shortened version of taking the Lord's name in vain so I wrote to them. I don't believe what they say below. Do you know if it means anything else? I was pretty offended.
Hello Steven,
Thank you for taking the time to express your viewpoint regarding our Degree Girl campaign. Your comments will be forwarded to our marketing department for review.
"OMG" is a part of today's teen vernacular. We regret that your
interpretation of the term has a negative meaning, that was never our intent and we do not reference it beyond those three letters in any of our materials.
Please be assured that we appreciate your feedback and value your willingness to share your thoughts with us.
Your friends at Degree

In my mind I always say oh my goodness, but that is just because I force myself to say that.
Sounds a lot like what I got when I emails Arby's about their commercials. "We did not mean to offend and will forward it on..."
It means what you think it does though. I don't think teen girls are going around saying the word "goodness". (I did not cut out any of those coupons-even though they were FREE)
I'm out of the loop on Arby's, just because we don't have TV just movies.
Be glad you are out of the loop. We are to the point where we turn the tv off whenever there is a commercial.
