5958: Dreadful News.
A stylish MultiCultClassics Monologue…
• A Manhattan nonprofit organization is being sued by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission for ordering Rastafarian workers to hide their dreadlocks under uniform caps. The EEOC says the workers are being discriminated against because of their religious beliefs. However, the nonprofit insists they tried to resolve the matter, even offering the workers larger hats. Looks like they’ll have to offer dreadfully larger sums of loot instead.
• A Florida judge dumped a law banning saggy pants after a kid was busted for violating the mandate. The kid’s lawyer persuaded the judge to nix the law by arguing, “Your honor, we now have the fashion police.” Guess hip hop enthusiasts now have the right to remain stylish.
• Home Depot hopes to stimulate sales by cutting prices on certain items up to 50 percent. The savings will be totally negated by the cost of gas for driving to Home Depot.
• R. Kelly insisted in an interview that he doesn’t chase after underage girls and declared, “I don’t like anyone illegal.” He then probably rushed to Home Depot to pick up new paneling for his hot tub room.
