Really Flashcash? - GoFuckYourself.com

PhillipB · 11-17-2008, 12:44 PM

From your latest newsletter:

"Apparently everyone in The United States all dropped acid at the same time and elected a black guy named Hussein before they sobered up."

I don't even know where to begin with this classless, racist, and utterly stupid statement. Considering that a good number of your affiliates voted for Obama and possibly are from African American, mixed-race, and/or Middle Eastern descent, I can't figure out what you would have to gain from this baseless remark. Look...I'm all for clever PR and sarcastic shit, but it shows really poor business judgement to express your political views in this way.

FreeHugeMovies · 11-17-2008, 12:45 PM

If they did that, that's one stpuid newsletter.

Ditosta · 11-17-2008, 12:48 PM

I did not get it, When was that released?

WarChild · 11-17-2008, 12:49 PM

When asked to comment on this obviosuly very serious and not one bit sarcastic line in the newsletter, Halcyon had this to say:

EscortBiz · 11-17-2008, 12:52 PM

fucked up shit to say and this coming from someone who did not vote for obama

jmk · 11-17-2008, 12:54 PM

Oy woah....

- Jesus Christ - · 11-17-2008, 12:56 PM

I resent that statement.

I only use mushrooms and peyote, not acid.

Rorschach · 11-17-2008, 12:58 PM

Wouldn't be the first time Flashcash has done something stupid... That program has certainly seen better days.

Profits of Doom · 11-17-2008, 01:00 PM

My only problem with this statement is that they are way behind the times in their drug references. Who the hell still drops acid? I haven't seen a hit of acid since 1998...

CCdoug · 11-17-2008, 01:00 PM

<--- Speechless

11-17-2008, 01:02 PM

i did not get that newsletter... if it be true, i am shocked!!!

Just Mike · 11-17-2008, 01:05 PM

WOW! That's hard to believe that came from Flash cash. I'm sure it's just a big misunderstanding.

PhillipB · 11-17-2008, 01:09 PM

Hey I like Hal and love those mix CD's they create. We even send a little traffic to them. But I think it shows a good deal of ignorance on their part.

WiredGuy · 11-17-2008, 01:10 PM

Who writes the newsletter is the big question now...
WG

tranza · 11-17-2008, 01:11 PM

It was clearly a joke.

Halcyon · 11-17-2008, 01:12 PM

I am really surprised by the response. If I offended anyone, I truly apologize. Each newsletter begins with something borderline offensive and "out there."

I thought it sounded like a silly thing for someone clueless to say. But if it is taken in another way, I sincerely apologize.

I am a HUGE Obama supporter, personally. The txt in the newsletter, however is merely me trying to be funny and does NOT reflect the opinions or politics of FLASHCA$H.

Jens Van Assterdam · 11-17-2008, 01:15 PM

gdfffffffffffffffffff

CosmicTang · 11-17-2008, 01:15 PM

There's got to be an explanation to this. A misunderstanding or a joke that sounded much funnier in someone's head than it does written down.

Halcyon · 11-17-2008, 01:17 PM

as reference, here are some other examples of my humor in the newsletter:

Jens Van Assterdam · 11-17-2008, 01:18 PM

The clitoris is shocked..

Machete_ · 11-17-2008, 01:18 PM

This is what my marketing mentor called "Panic At The Disco"

If only politicians could just own up and apologize like that.

Monique Niccole · 11-17-2008, 01:50 PM

Now that tweet makes sense.

undersoul · 11-17-2008, 01:59 PM

that's is pretty fucked up. glad Halcyon explained it all.

bloggingseo · 11-17-2008, 08:55 PM

Okay, I figured Hal would have voted for Obama. He's too laid back, open minded, and pink to like republicans

GTS Mark · 11-17-2008, 09:29 PM

Phil do you need a hug?

NaughtyRob · 11-17-2008, 09:50 PM

Dumb, why even bring up politics in a fucking webmaster newsletter? ROFL

NickB. · 11-17-2008, 09:55 PM

I personally think its plain rediculous
