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.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
