Looking through old code and assignments from school, wonder what I was smoking making a GUI from Win32 API calls, while it is interesting and I did learn about the WndProc handler, that seems like pain. Definitely have regressed as a coder though!
People are really buying that he meant 'guerilla' as if 'guerilla effect' is a commonly said phrase, followed by 'charging' ? Huh. Somehow I'm not too surprised.
Heh, who said he did nothing wrong ? Foot in mouth, isn't murder, but it's still something one should say "Ah nuts, sorry" for. And ta-da that'd suck the wind out of any fuss.
Well context matters. I have been around people using words in a weasely way so it pays to look at it case by case. The ESPN clown should not have said that and not try the weak dodge he did try after. As for him getting the sack, such is life in entertainment. Maybe he just handed some rope to managers waiting for it
You would be surprised at people trying to be **** by being clever. Definitely is worth looking at it on a case by case basis when someone uses a word like that.
And never know people's background, might be reasons to be touchy on words. But I guess that's just the insidious left to you.
What is a "guerilla effect" ? Dude should choose his words better (and stop trying to be edgy) and how is ESPN racist here? You can argue they see it where it is not, but doesn't make it racist.
"She misses a first serve and Venus is all over her. You see Venus move in (and) put the gorilla [guerrilla] effect on. Charging.”"

I wish they would do that with the education department.
The Department of Education & the EPA both gone? NOW we're getting somewhere!What's wrong with the EPA existentially?
