As Oscar Wilde is reported to have said, “I may not agree with you, but I will defend (bảo vệ) to the death your right to make an ass of yourself.” Without, of course, calling you an ass.
Oliver J. “Porky” Bickar rolled out of bed on April Fools’ Day, 1974, looked out his window to a white-topped mountain outside Sitka, Alaska, and told his wife, Patty, “I have to do it today.” She replied with age-old words of wisdom: “Don’t make an ass of yourself.”
Gina Carano is not being silenced. She can continue to make an ass of herself if she wants to. Disney just does not want to support her by paying her money and getting tarred with the same brush. If you don’t think Disney worries about their image maybe you should sit down and think about it a little harder while watching “Song of the South”…
It’s time to dust off that old Spanish-language dictionary. You won’t make an ass of yourself when that tapas (đồ ăn Tây Ban Nha) place finally reopens … and it might change your outlook.
