1. Ex-'Grey's' star: Racism a factor in axing -- I just ... I can't even. Does he even realize what a complete and total idiot he's making himself sound like? What are we on now, story number twenty-three? And you know what I think his reaction seems to stem from? He's all pissed off because they waited until the end of the season to even mention firing him and he has no idea where the hell it came from. I'll tell you where it came from, dingbat -- you assaulted a co-worker and used hate speech in the workplace, idiot. Anybody else who didn't have an entire season's worth of storylines still to film would have been fired immediately.

2. It's one o'clock and I'm awake and waiting for the cable guys. Dude, I'm not supposed to HAVE to wait. My mom knows them and works with them, for crying out loud. I want them here NOW. (I'm only bitchy because I've only had four hours of sleep. Homigod, I'm so tired.)

3. I got paid yesterday and pretty much all of it is going directly towards my rent. Bah.

4. The cat's looking for attention. Yeah, good timing, dumbass.

I saw Washington's latest ridiculous little hissy fit on CNN.com, and I was just waiting to see what your reaction would be. It didn't disappoint. :)

Does the man honestly think he's ever going to work again if he keeps up with this?

It's getting to the point where I would probably stop watching any show that hired him at this point regardless of how much I liked it beforehand. I can see him work again, at least until show runners figure out nobody wants to watch someone they can't disassociate from behaving like a spoiled ignorant child.

Maybe people were afraid of him because he was verbally assaulting his coworker.

Oh, no, it can't possibly be because of that. I mean, why would you fire someone for repeatedly calling someone homophobic names and throttling a co-worker? That would just be silly.

Next up, he'll declare that he was fired for being homophobic, black, non-submissive, edumacated and tall.

Because tall? Is unjustly scary and intimidating. People over six feet lose their jobs for it all the time, and no one does anything to stand up for it.

That's because if they were standing, they'd be ginormous.

Yeah, I definitely wouldn't be afraid of someone who used homophobic slurs and tried to strangle a co-worker. It's totally just because he's black.

What. An. Ass.

I seriously cannot get over this. Every time I read an articel with any of those quotes, I get mad ALL OVER AGAIN. It's kind of surreal.

Also? If I were Chandra Wilson or JPJ? I would be pissed as fuck right now.

Dude, I really just want JPJ to come forward and be all, "Hmm, that's funny. I'm a tall black guy and I still have a job. I wonder why that is."

And then Chandra could say, "Oh, thank God I'm short. I'll get fired last!"

And then Shonda (still not my favorite person in the world, and yet) could say, "Bitch, PLEASE."

That would be the BEST THING EVER.

Washington makes my blood boil, and storylines to be filmed or not, I would have preferred if they sacked him immediately after the incident, make a helicopter to crash on Burke, or whatever. It could have even worked as an intratextual pun.
