A Philadelphia newspaper is eating General Tso's Crow after it let some idiot's racist photo caption joke go to press. Free weekly paper The Philadelphia Public Record ran the above photo with what would otherwise have been a seriously nothing story about a fundraiser for City Councilman Mark Squilla, hosted by an Asian-American group. The caption was obviously tossed into the paper by someone who didn't notice it included some factual errors: In addition to the amusingly racist fake names "Me Too," "Chinky Winky," and "Dinky Doo," even the real attendees' names don't match up with the order of people in the photo, whichever direction you go. And then there's that "fro" instead of "for," which we'd normally be willing to overlook, but this seems like an obviously racist slur against natural African-American hairstyles.

No, that was by Charles Dikkens, the well-known Dutch aufhor...
Oy.
It&#039;s OK this one time, but don&#039;t make it into a hobbit.

They could just use the Ryan entitlement reform proposal to fulfill the same purpose.

Say ... do you know what <em>other</em> literary work was originally passed off as a &quot;proofreading error&quot;?

This is Wong on so many levels.

I&#039;m not sure I really want to know, but how did Derpy manage to have a daughter? Parthenogenesis is magic?
