Man.. I almost wish this was a very subtle joke.. I mean.. ?eustlove breaking the thing over Twitter?


I dunno. Fallon doesn't go for the long form subtle..

Mike Lewis said...

oh, its totally real. not a joke at all.

Roscoe said...

I know.. I know.. I .... just.. it's so almost perfect for a HELLA subtle joke.

Mike Lewis said...

maybe i do not know what the word "subtle" means, but that is not subtle.

Subtle would have been without the sign.

Also, you may be confusing "subtle joke" with "subtle racism".

Which, again, is not subtle once a sign is involved.

Roscoe said...

You really can't evaluate racism until the final result.. If this is just set up to the punchline, then..

Though it turns out the chef sees no problem and has been fighting for the authorization to do this for quite some time.

Mike Lewis said...

also, there is no subtley is racism. it as much as it is still, you know, raceism.

I like that the chef did not think it problematic.

That is priceless.
