Shouldn't he be in an asylum by now?

Dude's been rattling off nutty stuff for months.


"Renewed outrage hit social media after West said in his recent "Drink Champs" interview: "I can say antisemitic things and Adidas can't drop me.""

You talking about 'Ye'?

You forgot, poor and mentally ill -> crazy ward

Rich and mentally ill -> hands off, they're just "eccentric".


Surprised I haven't read a feminist article arguing that if you're rich and female and mentally-ill you lose your rights to a conservatorship, but if you're rich and male and mentally-ill, you retain complete autonomy to carry on causing trouble and making an oaf of yourself.

I mean, maybe it's just a matter of what kind of parents you happen to have? Maybe there's nobody in a position to make such a claim over Kanye?

I was literally just thinking yesterday that if they stayed associated with that moronic racist $hitbag I would never buy another Adidas product again.

I like their stuff so this decision pleases me. :)

So is it pronounced "yay" or "yee"? In my head it was "yee" given the spelling but it's just been on the news and the talking heads are saying "yay".

I think the Ye is what historically would have been called the somewhat derogatory term of idiot savant - someone with an "abnormally" low IQ but with some ability that dwarfs that of most humans.

I get that this is the smallest WTF about West but "Ye" can never be pronounced "Yay". Everyone should call him "Yee", it would be correct but also piss him off a lot.
I'm only half paying attention to this thread, but "ye" will most typically be pronounced "yay"(romantic languages, maybe others). The problem is the second "e". *That* will always give the "ē" sound. I blame poor literacy.

Yea, English is a fucked up language though. It's basically anarchy. "Rules" apply until they don't. Depends on where your stole your word from, and the arbitrary decision of some dude 200 years ago.

And that's not even bringing the great vowel shift into it.

Whenever I dislike what someone says I try to get them fired. It's the American way.


Yeah.... it's not like this is the first (or the 10th!) fvcked thing to spew forth from that dickwads fetid pie-hole.

I heard a lady from the ADL (Anti-Defamation league) on CBS NY news yesterday speaking and she pointed out that GARBAGE human-being has more "followers" (many of whom hang on his every word) then there are Jews in existence!

The potential for his irresponsible and thoughtless words to lead to anti-semitic violence is FAR higher then just your average POS racist. (as evidenced by the white supremacists with that banner on the highway bridge in LA quoting him)

Frankly he deserves a lot worse than getting "cancelled". :mad:
