I like the part where the Next Top Model calls the Australians a race

Oh honey, no... (link to Adrianne Curry on Perez)

It's like she thought out the very beginning of the idea (good, yes, "separate but equal" is bad) and then forgot to follow through with the rest of her argument wherein she would've found the parts that make her just ignorant and simple.

You know, things that have to do with the history of power structures, race relations, freedom of speech, the real problems of racism that remain insidious in the US, the fact that having a "Black History Month" is different than having a "White History Month," oh and the difference between nationality and race...

I believe the colloquial term is 'moron,' no? Or perhaps I missed the box on the form labeled "Aussie! Aussie Aussie!"

Somebody get me a TimTam.
