Irish Angry At Urban Outfitters For Offensive St. Patrick's Day Merchandise

A number of Congressional leaders are blasting Urban Outfitters for selling St. Patrick's Day merchandise that mocks people of Irish descent for acting like obnoxious, binge-drinking idiots every March 17th. It's unclear where Urban Outfitters got this notion, or why they think it's funny, but the company is in hot water with New York Democratic Rep. Joseph Crowley, who says, "By selling and promoting these items, Urban Outfitters is only fueling stereotypes that many Irish Americans, as well as the people of Ireland, work so hard to dispel." Got it, people? These are stereotypes. That Urban Outfitters beer jug labeled “Leprechaun Piss" is not literally for leprechaun piss. more ›

Lawsuit: My Boss's Voice Made Me Vomit!

Housing Authority Superintendent Anthony Dingle is suing his boss, Demetrice Gadson, for verbally harassing him to such a degree that he suffered from a bleeding prostate that had to be treated by a urologist. Dingle, 48, claims Gadson repeatedly unleashed vindictive tongue-lashings after he reported her to upper management over some unspecified violations. Through his lawyers, he tells the Post, "I was constantly being attacked by her. I felt like attacks could come at any time. Every time I heard her voice, it triggered a sickening feeling in me." Gadson—who sounds more like the aggrieved wife in the Lockhorns cartoons than a boss—allegedly savored the suffering she could inflict just by opening her mouth. more ›

Cab Ride From Hell: Speeding, Barfing, Punching

A woman tells the Post about her terrible cab ride: Yolanda Rodriguez claims that her driver punched her... because she threw up in the cab after he refused to stop speeding. She explained, "I get motion sickness and he was driving really, really fast. I said, 'I'll throw up in the car,' but he wouldn't slow down." She and a friend hailed a cab driven by Gurpreet Singh at Broadway and West 65th around 11:30 p.m. last week; after Rodriguez's unheard plea for him to stop speeding and her bout of motion sickness, Singh allegedly yelled, ''Get the f--- out of my car. Get out of my car right now. You guys are whores and bitches.'" Rodriguez says that when she asked him not to say that, he hit her—then she hit him back and he "began walloping her, punching her on the forehead head so hard she fell down." Singh was charged with third degree assault and suspended by the TLC for the time being. When the Post called him, Singh responded, "Don't f----- bother me, f---." more ›
