| Level: 43 Editor | The new GameStop commercial really offends me by how sexist it is. For those who haven't seen it, it goes something like this: Teenager is in his car with a supermodel, she tries to punch him several times but he blocks all her jabs. Teenager and model stop at a GameStop, go inside. Teenager: I want to trade her in. Other supermodel is revealed by GameStop employee. GameStop employee: She's new. Teenager: I'll take her! Announcer: GameStop. Buy it. Play it. Trade it in. I just cringe every time I see that. In this age of insane levels of PC, how did this slip by? --- "Everything lasts forever." ~Homer Simpson "It says no Homers. We're allowed to have one." |

| Level: 49 Liberal Arts Major | Wow, that's great: a couple of stereotypical illustrations feminine un-intelligence and physical weakness, a helping of sexual objectification, and a big jolly reference to slavery - all in one little commercial! ___ ~ Ogordemir ~ Buddha promised me Nirvana and all I got was this lousy T-shirt.
