Azalin Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 "Ms. Shriver donned a sombrero for much of her speech — an allusion to a case in the United States in which articles of impeachment were drawn up (and later rescinded) against non-Mexican student government members for doing the same during a fiesta-themed tequila party at Bowdoin College." Good for Shriver. I'm all for meeting this ridiculous PC crap head on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I brought stir-fry noodles and everyone rejoiced! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
