    Which proves my point.

      I thought Trump needed Ohio to win. He's going to drag an Ohio company into his culture war?

        FEW big American corps. aren't ass-kissing BLM. I'd sooner eat sh!t then cross the threshold of a Starbucks, unless it was to toss in a stink-bomb.

          No big loss.

            I find it interesting that they are reacting so quickly. I think this "wokeness" on the part of Corporate America is a passing fad. Like an advertising campaign that doesn't work.

              I agree. It's New Coke, or something like it. At some point it's going to be, OK, enough is enough. Being "woke" is baby talk. A lot of Urban Dictionary is just a way of sneaking in that goofy language thing they were going to put in the schools so dumb blacks could speak some sort of English.

                I have always thought of Goodyear tires as being some of the best. I replaced the tires on my car with Goodyear's replacing the Firestones I had with 25,000 on them. Rotated every 3000 miles with each oil change. Now I was told the Goodyear's would not pass inspection. Rotated at 3000 miles and oil changes. BUT the Goodyear's only had 6000 miles on them. I was a bit upset. The dealer put on new tires and I contacted Goodyear on line twice before they finally said OK and call this number. I did and the wait time was only 23 minutes. I spoke with a rep. He called the car dealer who had the tires in case the company wanted them. The rep called the dealer and spoke with the service manager then informed me the company would be getting back to me soon. So I waited two weeks and tried the number again but no one answers. Still have not heard back and sent more emails but again nothing. So I will tell all, DON'T BUY GOODYEAR TIRES. The company is going down hill...fast.

                  Ebonics. It just popped into my head

                  Ebonics (a portmanteau of the words ebony and phonics). Say whaa..?
                  I think the idea was, when the black kids speak ooga booga, the other kids could kind of understand them and the blacks wouldn't feel excluded. Ya know what I'm sayin'?

                  Goodyear makes tires. People are driving a lot just to get out of town for a while but there isn't quite as much driving going on as there was(except those Amazon trucks). They also make airplane tires. Great big expensive aircraft tires and there isn't nearly as much flying going on.
