Given that we live in an age where anything can be made into a viral video, I give you President Please! -- the movement to replace the n-word with the word president.
I'm not even sure where to begin with this one. On one hand, there is always the positive aspect of trying to find alternatives to using the n-word, but on the flip side, it equates the word to the president. Despite the proclamations that the word now has positive connotations, the issue has always been about it's negative origins.
But, I won't lie. I was dying at the fake news overlays and at the dude who says he can't rhyme anything with president. It's okay to laugh. ...
Will you be taking part in the president please movement?
