Linksys Proves THESE White People Can’t Dance

site the company setup, and visit the “Entertainment” and “Fun” pages to watch some people humiliate themselves over and over again. And if you feel like it, you can read about the products too, like the WRT350N Wireless N router, but I don’t think it’s as much fun.

Boy…that’s embarassing. Reminds me of Elaine’s dance on Seinfeld.

What’s up with the rings? Did anyone notice that

- The videos are horizontally flipped, since the kiddo’s LaCoste symbol is on the left instead of the right side.

- Both the kid and the woman are wearing a ring on the middle finger of their right hands. Considering the above point it would be their left hands. Weird, especially for the kid.

All in all, very embarrassing, yes. Sometimes it is better to go the extra mile and spend the money on a decent advertising firm instead of accepting the el-cheapo campaign offer from the Russian offshore ad firm.

“White people can’t dance” is as much a racist generalization as “black people are lazy,” and “Chinese people can’t drive,” and “Jews are cheap,” and “Irish are drunks,” etc.

Still, crappy site! The WhoIs lists it as owned by Cisco-Linksys’ Amsterdam, NL, branch.

It would be better if she were topless.

Doesn’t she remind us all of someone we knew/know? Bless their rhythm-less souls…
