"Bennifer" dead; film at 11

It's over. Ben and Jennifer - "Bennifer" - is splitsville.

Who is better off? Ben, for no longer having to deal with her J.Lo-ass-sized ego? Or Lopez - for essentially the same thing in reverse. (snicker)

Discuss.

Eenie, meenie, minie, moe - the courts some sense doth finally show

Eenie, meenie, minie, moe
Catch a rabbit by the toe
If he hollers make him pay
Fifty dollars every day

You guys remember that little nursery rhyme, right? Nice little blurb to jump rope to. Plus, it was fun.

And if it was fun, that means that Southwest Airlines would find some way to incorporate it into its operations. Herb Kelleher's baby is nothing if not fun. I've flown them from time to time, and I rather like the experience.

Anyway, the deal with Southwest is that there are no preassigned seats, unlike with other airlines. And their catchphrase to emphasize that goes like this: "Eenie, meenie, minie, moe - Pick a seat, we gotta go."

Fun, right?

Well, not to a couple of humor-challenged black women. They sued, claiming they were offended because there's supposedly a racial version of this ditty...and, well, it's must be some sort of criminal act to offend a deified minority nowadays, right?

Anyway, this piece of shit case went to trial, and...well, I'll let the Atlanta Urinal & Constipation (a little Rush lingo, there) pick up the story:


Southwest Airlines is not liable for a flight attendant who upset two black passengers by using a version of a rhyme with a racist history, a jury determined Wednesday.


Halle-freakin'-lujah!!! Somebody  finally gets it!!!


The two passengers, sisters Louise Sawyer and Grace Fuller, were heading home from a Las Vegas vacation nearly three years ago when flight attendant Jennifer Cundiff, trying to get passengers to sit down, said over the intercom, "Eenie, meenie, minie, moe; pick a seat, we gotta go."

The sisters say the rhyme was directed at them and was a reference to a racist version that dates to before the civil rights era.


"Eenie, meenie, minie, moe - these bints have the brains of yer average ho'."

We'll forget for the time being that Southwest uses this phrase every damned day of the week,  and unless these moronic tramps actually fly Southwest every damned day of the week...


Attorney Scott A. Wissel, representing the two women, said in his opening statement that they were humiliated and degraded when Cundiff used the phrase, and decided to sue out of frustration after Southwest Airlines would not take their complaint seriously.


Y'know what, Weasel...um, Wissel...um, I think I was right the first time...y'know what, Weasel? You'd best hope Southwest doesn't file a countersuit  against your smarmy little pisspot ass for malicious prosecution!!!  I can just see you having to give up your little 4-bedroom house and having to sell the BMW just to pay the judgement...

And if I were Southwest and I ever saw those two dumbassed trollops try to board one of my  planes, I'd taxi out to the runway and throw their fat asses out the hatch!

Stupid bitches...
