    Oh lord.  Don't like it? Don't buy it.

    I will never understand that mentality.  I think the name is hilarious.

    I get boycotting something you find offensive.  I guess I really wouldn't appreciate my young kids finding humor in something like that, but that's where the parenting comes in.  Ben & Jerry's is not the parent here.

    ETA: Also, Scentsy needs a "pervert" line with dirty names.

    I'm not so good with the advice... Can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?

    LOL.  Brianna, get your Scentsy friends on that!!!!

    I agree, it's hilarious!  Loved that skit and you have to be the parent, not the TV, Ben and Jerry's or the like.

    Well, I am a parent and I think it's funny.  I also understand that I am raising my child in a world where she will things that some may find offensive and I need to teach her the proper way to handle that.  I am not naive enough to think that vulgarity isn't everywhere.

    That's basically what I meant, and I'm sorry if I implied otherwise. 

    I mean, you're absolutely right -- don't like it?  Don't buy it.  Which is what they're doing.  They're just making a public statement about not buying it.

    I didn't think that you implied it, this kind of stuff really gets under my skin.  And the fact that they had to make a big to-do and even get a Yahoo article out of it just solidifies my issues with it!

    I should add to my statement - don't like it, don't buy it, and don't throw a freakin' fit about it.  You don't want your kid to read the label, I don't want my child to pick up adult hissy fits.  Problem solved!  <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-laughing.gif" border="0" alt="Laughing" title="Laughing" />
