Donut Dudes, thanks for the info, but don’t tell us, tell Malkin and Pammy. They’re the ones with their kaffiyehs in a bunch about this.

By the way, on the rare occasions my cardiac status allows me doughnuts, I like Dunkin’s better than the products of the mighty Krispy Kreme empire. This is in spite of my decidedly lukewarm feelings about Rachel Ray.

Thank you for expressing your concern regarding the Rachael Ray advertisement. In the ad that you reference, Rachael is wearing a black-and-white silk scarf with a paisley design that was purchased at a U.S. retail store. It was selected by the stylist for the advertising shoot. Absolutely no symbolism was intended. However, given the possibility of misperception, we will no longer use the commercial.

Don’t tell Charles Johnson or Alec Rawls that croissants are shaped like crescents.

It’s worse than that - not only are they shaped like crescents, they have a French name. So they’re doubly appeasalicious.

I’m sorry it’s not a kaffiyeh. For a moment there, I was starting to like Racheal Ray (in a good way, and not a Hentai way).

It’s not a ‘kaffiyeh’

It’s a ‘Woven Coalition Desert Scarf’, and you can get them — in six colors — from any good Army-Navy store.

I’m looking at the part of the scarf on Racheal’s left shoulder, and I see potential evidence of a paisley pattern. Remember paisley? Hippies, drugs, rock&roll and all that? Yeah, I miss those things too, but I suspect the subliminal paisley link is what is driving these morons nuts - it makes it very clear how many long, lonely decades it has been since any of them got laid.

When Pammycakes originally “broke” this story (via S,N! I saw it) one of her someone whose connection with reality is obviously not impaired made that exact observation: “it’s a scarf”.

I guess now we’re down to neckwear as a sign of the class of civilizations and American Fealty. Sad that. I guess Rachel better quit shopping on the street in NYC.

From your wikipedia link:

“The design was labeled a combination of Egyptian simplicity and Greek refinement.“

AH-HA!!

And it IS Oregon, land of 75,000-strong turnouts for B. Hussein Obama, so that pretty much connects all the dots….

I go to Dunkin for their breakfast croissants. Don’t tell Charles Johnson or Alec Rawls that croissants are shaped like crescents.

On the other hand, tell them. Like Quakerinabasement said above, might keep them sniffing their own buttcracks well into the fall.

And I like $40 a day. Where else are you going to get a glimpse into the relatively lowlife enclaves inside San Diego, Southern Vermont, and Salem, Oregon?
