Particularly when it
requires me to mention the antediluvian and almost completely useless Miss America Pageant:
Miss New York, Nina Davuluri, was crowned Miss America on Sunday evening in Atlantic City.
The 24-year-old Syracuse resident is the first ever winner of Indian heritage.
While Davuluri is proud of her heritage — even performing a Bollywood dance during Sunday's show and competing on a theme of “Celebrating Diversity through Cultural Competency” — many weren't pleased.
What should have been a happy occasion turned sour.
Following Davuluri's win, racist trolls took to Twitter to complain about the decision.
Seriously, could the racists shut up, so I can ignore Miss America again?
