What happened to Apache Spinner?
« on: November 13, 2013, 12:28:12 am »
I've been out for a bit.

Decided to start another project.

Apache spinners haven't been in stock for a while it seems.

Any story on this?

Maybe they had to change the name to a non offensive one.

Apache Spinner is about as offensive as Quaker Oats.

Odd really.   You would think  Chalk-Asian  would be more offensive than 'white male'.
heh

I'm offended that you're offended and I will be filing a grievance through appropriate channels to force you to take sensitivity training. I'll have the grievance completed in about three years, give or take a year.

I thought about that when I was typing out caucasian.   :laugh:

That's fine.  I'll probably just be finishing up my cabinet and I will need something to occupy my time.   :)

I think they should rename it Tonto Spinner.  As Tonto was the tribe where Apachean's originate.

As the word "original" is a good selling aspect, it should benefit the spinner, also at the same time keep it unique and politically correct.

I want a Tonto Spinner!
