And, like, why would they even GO THERE? They provide definitions of all their little Britishisms so obviously they know what this is referencing and therefore they should know it's a slur.Madelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10966513049571342446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4241080681767360438.post-80385584113787877412014-03-05T13:12:48.442-08:002014-03-05T13:12:48.442-08:00I don't get it either.

Well, no, only offensive things usually offend someone, even if they don't offend everyone.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02075243940219740263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4241080681767360438.post-5675477880676111972014-03-05T13:00:01.885-08:002014-03-05T13:00:01.885-08:00At this point, I am fed up with companies using ra...At this point, I am fed up with companies using racial slurs/derogatory names for polish. I don't understand how they think it is at all appropriate. I just saw another (smaller, indie) company that used two of these types of names, blech. It just makes me reluctant to purchase products from these companies in the future.

So Butter London is the equivalent of the white American girl on Tumblr who is "totes British" because she loves Harry Potter, Sherlock, and Dr. Who?<br /><br />I guess there were racist assbags who were bragging abut deliberately buying the polish. Im glad to see that all orders have been cancelled. Savannah Scorpionnoreply@blogger.com
