"Thundercracker" is racist term?

[Goaliebot]

So... Are we saying Hasbro *shouldn't* releases an all white seeker named Honkycracker?

I love the thundernigga. I'm gonna make a custom of it with a bigass fro. And a play set that's a fried chicken and waffles shack with nothing but watermelon for desert and send a pic to that lady and see if she thinks THAT's racist or not. ..

2 things in life we will never get rid of.

Taxes and stupid people.

I feel sorry for humanity

How can they possibly give him such a racist name? He's the farthest thing from being a cracker! He's blue, has a black face (original toy), made in china and created by a Japanese company!

When I first saw this thread, I was like "How is that name racist...". After reading the full post, I started laughing...I feel parents should spend more time playing with their kids than wasting time on this pointless petition.

What's everyone's problem with a small square of crunchy flaky stale-bread-like substance covered in sodium? They've had those on the market for years and nobody complained.

Hell, they give them in pairs when you order soup.


Anyways, so "Thundercracker" is racist, but "Cracka'lackin" isn't?

A melted bowl of of blueberry, cherry, and vanilla ice cream with star shaped sprinkles on it. We can call him Three Scoop Starscream.

Actually...... hmm....... unmelted that sounds like it'd be pretty tasty.

All this woman has done in the long run, is teach her kid that "cracker" is a racial term, where he probably wouldn't have heard that word used like that, for another 10 years, where he'd be old enough to not say it. Now he's gonna call poor Jimmy at school a cracker, then the token black kid at school is gonna learn it while coloring a picture of a butterfly.. next thing you know he'll be drawing null rays on the butterflies wings and calling it "Cracker Killer" then that kid gets expelled and becomes a bad kid and takes it out on Jimmy who happens to live next door, beating him into the ground and breaking his nose. 10 years later Jimmy develops asthma causing him to drop out of the Olympic games, become a crack head, and take his own life.

I mean come on people, think about the consequences of your actions!

This doesn't make any sense, why is she so upset about the name? Shouldn't she be more worried that the TC isn't wearing pants!

Signature #7 is awesome

At first, I thought it is a selling thread, then a review thread, but after clicking the link. I couldn't stop laughing at all the comments.

One thing for sure is the mother is reading THUNDER'CRACKER as two words instead of one word.
