Thank Goodness it’s Friday because I don’t know what to say about this picture. The news surrounding this controversy just keeps on getting better and better. On Wednesday news broke out that Professor Gates is half-Irish and related to the Sergeant Crowley! but I don’t see any resemblance.

What are you making out of all this? do you even care anymore?
