Two wongs can make it white? Abercrombie pulled shirt designs off their shelves because the Asian community was offended by the design. Included were "Wong Brothers Laundry Service: Two Wongs Can Make It White" and "Wok-N-Bowl -- Chinese Food And Bowling." Truly funny or truly offensive?

Boy, when will Abercrombie learn? It seems like they just pulled this stunt yesterday.

Sorry about that... I don't know how I missed that... would it help if I gave you this link about correlation between temperatures and mood swings instead? Please forgive me.

What I don't understand is, what is so fascinating about Abercrombie and Fitch that this rates even a single post?

It's not Abercrombie and Fitch, per se.
We're all just getting our corporate Schadenfreude on.

An acceptable pennance. Go in peace, my child. :-)
