    NHL announcer suspended for inappropriate comment
    NHL announcer suspended after hot mic catches inappropriate comment

    Come on, man, it may be a tad inappropriate, but it's funny AF.

    A lady is losing her mind about something similar happening at our local KFC drive thru this week. A kid shouted through the speaker "did you just S**t yourself cu**" by accident. She said the kid apologized profusely when she got to the pay window but she decided to post about it on our town facebook community group hoping to cause trouble.

    I was kind of pleased to see most of the dozens of replies told her she was a nasty Karen and to STFU.

    Same thing should happen to anyone acting like that announcer comment deserves punishment too.

            Opti, did you know that SteveK is a doppelganger for American actor Andrew McCarthy?

                  Wait, did a KFC worker call a lady in the drive through a CUNT? How would that be by accident? Am I reading this right? If some kid called my wife or daughter that, I’d raise a huge stink. Being a Karen has nothing to do with it. I would immediately fire anyone working for me doing something that stupid. Maybe I’m reading this wrong?

                    He didn't call her that. After her order the speaker was left on and it was said to some other worker inside the shop.

                                    Yeah, this feels like people overreacting to an honest mistake. The kid apologized, that should’ve been the end of it. Not everything needs outrage or punishment—sometimes you just move on.

                                        A public apology would have been sufficient as it was on air but damn near every person alive heard worse growing up and do not think it warranted a suspension.

                                          How do you really know he didn’t call her that? And what If she thought he called her that, I can see why she’d be upset. Especially if her husband or kids were in the car. He then says, “oh I was talking to a coworker”, sure you did, sounds like him trying to weasel out of it. I wasn’t there so I don’t think I can call her a Karen. The kid sounds like a dick anyway. FAFO.

                                            I know what the woman posted.

                                            She described what happened just as I did.

                                            Don't take it personal because I called her a Karen.

                                            I should have made it more clear this was in Australia, where that word is used in many "acceptable" ways. If he had called her a C in a manner meant to insult, then yeah, everyone here would want him sacked too. But he was caught out thinking the mike was off and made a fairly "normal" aussie teenager comment to someone in the shop who farted in his booth.


                                            Anyways, my point was that an unintentional slip over a "hot mike" is not a good reason for cancelling the media guy or the kid imho. Ymmv

                                              No I haven't sadly. He was in bad shape last I heard from him.

                                                She described what happened just as I did.

                                                Don't take it personal because I called her a Karen.

                                                I should have made it more clear this was in Australia, where that word is used in many "acceptable" ways. If he had called her a C in a manner meant to insult, then yeah, everyone here would want him sacked too. But he was caught out thinking the mike was off and made a fairly "normal" aussie teenager comment to someone in the shop who farted in his booth.


                                                Anyways, my point was that an unintentional slip over a "hot mike" is not a good reason for cancelling the media guy or the kid imho. Ymmv
                                                I didn’t read where someone farted near him. That makes more sense. And I don’t believe in cancelling folks. We all make mistakes, as long as we own up to screwing up.

                                                Culture does have a lot to do with it like you mentioned. The C-word triggers a lot of women in the US. It might be as bad as the N-word.
