Race and gender are very sensitive issues around the world. And it in our nature to believe that we’re not biased in any way. Project Implicit is online test designed by Harvard University to basically “examine thoughts and feelings that exist either outside of conscious awareness or outside of conscious control.”

This research tool has been around since 1995 and has completed more than 11 million tests with only 1 goal in mind – to discover our possible unconscious biases.

Participants are instructed to assign a class of attributes — such as smart, lazy or failure — to a single group of people — such as women, Christians, or Americans — with one or two keystrokes as fast as they can. The point is to measure the first reaction, not the self-edited one.

Aside from gender and race, some tests include Sexuality (‘Gay – Straight’), Presidential Popularity, Weight, Native American , Age, Weapons, Asian American, Skin Tone, Arab-Muslim, Disability and Religion

When I saw Meghan McCain twitter photo, man, she’s so hot! I got myself a new crush! Unfortunately, it has created such a stir in the online and political communities. After all, she’s a daughter of former US presidential candidate Sen. John McCain.

According to some news reports, she apologized late Wednesday after posting her photo on Twitter wearing a tank top and sweat pants. Some people call her slut while others bash her

“So I took a fun picture not thinking anything about what I was wearing but apparently anything other than a pantsuit I am a slut,” she wrote, followed by “what once was fun now just seems like a vessel for harassment” and “when I am alone in my apartment, I wear tank tops and sweat pants, I had no idea this makes me a ’slut’, I can’t even tell you how hurt I am.”

No matter what people say, I’m with her on this one. Not only because she damn hot but it’s dead wrong. We’re putting these people so high up there that if they wear something we don’t like we start hatin’ them. Gee, I wonder what will people say if Obama posts a photo of him wearing boxers!!!!

There are so many fictitious stories circulating around the Web after the 9/11 tragedy. Dubbed as “celebrating Arabs” tales, it has gone viral and led so many people to believe that these are true events.

The marketing and PR guys of Budweiser were quick to disprove these stories after doing an extensive investigation. There are many variatons to the story but here’s the backbone:

How Budweiser handled those who laughed at those who died on the 11th of September, 2001…

Thought you might like to know what happened in a little town north of Bakersfield , California
After you finish reading this, please forward this story on to others so that our nation and people around the world will know about those who laughed when they found out about the tragic events in New York , Pennsylvania , and the Pentagon.

On September 11th, a Budweiser employee was making a delivery to a convenience store in a California town named McFarland. He knew of the tragedy that had occurred in New York when he entered the business to find the two Arabs, who owned the business, whooping and hollering to show their approval and support of this treacherous attack.

The Budweiser employee went to his truck, called his boss and told him of the very upsetting event! He didn’t feel he could be in that store with those
horrible people. His boss asked him, ‘Do you think you could go in there long enough to pull every Budweiser product and item our beverage company sells there? We’ll never deliver to them again.’

The employee walked in, proceeded to pull every single product his beverage company provided and left with an incredible grin on his face.

He told them never to bother to call for a delivery again.Budweiser happens to be the beer of choice for that community. Just letting you know how Kern County handled this situation.

And Now The Rest Of The Story:
It seems that the Bud driver and the Pepsi man are neighbors. Bud called Pepsi and told him. Pepsi called his boss who told him to pull all Pepsi products as well!!! That would include Frito Lay, etc. Furthermore, word spread and all vendors followed suit! At last report, on June 26, 2009, Fareed Katib closed the store and filed bankruptcy!

Good old American

Passive-Aggressive A$$ Whoopin!

Pass this along, America needs to know that we’re all working together!
