An old video featuring Gordon Ramsey and Sofia Vergara guest starring on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" has made its way back into the spotlight. This video has also resurfaced from nearly a decade ago. It was first aired in 2010. Bravo television networks' online magazine, The Feast, was the first to comment on the story. It was claimed that "Ramsey made a long series of suggestive remarks that may or may not have been acceptable at the time."

If you go to Twitter and search Gordon Ramseys' name you will find a series of different perspectives. Most people are astonished by his comments and physical actions. Other's believe that this video is nine years old and should be ignored.




Maybe some young snowflakes do not know how to read timestamps, but this video was almost a decade ago. I don't think the fame went to his head.


If society keeps scrounging the internet for old video clips, letters, statuses, or etc. featuring celebrities and whatever comments they made decades ago, they won't have anything to watch or left to boycott.

The #MeToo movement has turned into a movement that creates offensive thought in any comment a man says.

Yes, Gordon Ramsey touched, sorry, more like tapped Sofia Vergara's thigh. But, she also went to slap him when he was the jerk America loves to watch cook and called her dulce de leches— fudge. Jay Leno also spent the latter part of the interview mocking Sofia Vergara's Columbian accent followed by an interpretation of a British accent is a clear hit toward Gordon Ramsey.

Every time Gordon Ramsey makes a slight tap toward Sofia Vergara his whole face is red and he is shaking his legs. Those are both clear signs of anxiety or nerves. Personally, when I am nervous or am laughing at another person's joke tap the other person's arm if we're standing in a joking manner, which this clearly this.

In the past couple of years, there has been an endless amount of celebrities being thrown into the spotlight for their reputations to be tarnished for vocabulary they used decades ago. James Gunn was fired from directing the hit series, "Guardians of the Galaxy", because of tweets he published a decade ago as well. Comedians use crude humor in their stand-ups constantly, yet people do not make a mockery of them or force them to apologize and be held accountable for their jokes. Bob Saget, Dave Coulier, and John Stamos, the most beloved fathers of sitcom television, are known for their crude humor toward one another. Yet, "Fuller House" is thriving in today's entertainment.

It is time for the PC nation to end and learn how to grow a backbone. If society continues to read into every single thing a man does, there will not be any entertainers, actors, or even musicians left and then everyone will be complaining about the lack of new music or television series.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
