Okay, what's going on in that JCP clothing thread?

[Deleted]

I was reading a bit yesterday. Saw the cute print shorts my fat arse could never squeeze into and was offline for a while. 

What happened in there? I'm going to go out on a limb and assume, somehow, things got derailed from print shorts and summer clothes, right? 

Or can we discuss summer clothes that much? 

Either way, I'm a little nervous about diving in now...

[pixy0stix]

JCP is normalizing the gays. And that went just about where you think it would go.

[downtoearth]

Oh and that JCP has some really cute shorts for this summer.

[Deleted]

Thanks, pixy.

A 10-pager on shorts would have been far more fascinating. Sigh.

[gpw]

so then....can I get a recap? I barely even got on the internets yesterday let alone had the ability to wade into that..

Seriously, what I typed is it.

Pamela: JCP is normalizing homosexuality.

Rest of board: What? You're nuts.

Oh, and a random AE pretending to be new, but isn't.

Is that a bad thing, or was that a statement in support of buying from JCP?

[eclaires]

I posted a good article! So screw all of you who didn't read it or notice it.

It was in reference to why Pamela is boycotting JCP. Because gays aren't normal. 

Thus, the uproar. 

It really was about shorts for a long time though.

She is boycotting JCP because they feature gay families in their ads.

[Wrath0fKuus]

Ah. And, ew.

[Anne Blythe]

Agreed. As did the rest of the board.

[MrsAxilla]

Who is the AE?

I don't know why I'm wasting my time, but my GOD, Pamela.   :::shakes head:::

You should see when she suddenly turns into an expert on Islam.

Damn. Why don't cool people have the ability to suddenly turn into experts on shit they previously knew nothing about? Huh? I want to know!

[ringstrue]

i just relearned my love of JCP's app.

[heyjude]

Honestly, I think Pamela gets a certain level of satisfaction from dropping her mean and hate filled remarks, slinking off to whatever nuke proof bunker hole she lives in and then watching from afar her destruction. We are all playing right into it.

[iammalcolmx]

Also please don't run Pamela off, cause if there is another Nuclear issue we are going to need her.

Don't forget, Catholics were discussed too. And other religions too, probably.

The way to run me out of any thread is switching the discussion to religion, so that's when I stopped reading.

[aurora]

Thanks for posting this question - I was trying to decide whether to ask for a summary myself.

I agree that Pamela likes to rile us up, but she still gets me every time with her anti-environmental talk.

I brought up catholic, sorry, because I was hoping she wasn't one. I didn't want to claim another big got to my faith.

No worries. The problem I have with religion threads lies with me, not you.
