As if Party City weren't gross enough with its mass-manufactured, made-in-China, part-of-the-plastic-in-the-ocean plastic party wares, the retail chain is looking for new ways to piss on people.
This time, it's those of us with celiac, which — contrary to what I used to think before karma bitch-slapped me in the most gluten-filled way possible — is a legit disease that can kill people.
So, of course, Party City called those of us with celiac, and anyone who chooses not to eat gluten, gross — in its Super Bowl commercial. That's fine. In the past couple of years, I've been called #NastyWoman along with lots of other pejoratives. I guess I can add #GrossCeliac to my list of descriptors.
And, yes, the chain apologized. My ex apologized for cheating. I still left his ass.
Here's the only video we can find that Party City hasn't scrubbed from the web. But… guys? The internet is forever.
Nice.
