Online retailer eBay is removing several Dr. Seuss books from its website that are no longer being published.
A spokeswoman for the website told the Washington Examiner on Thursday that it would no longer be allowing sellers to list six books that have been deemed by Dr. Seuss Enterprises, the company that preserves Theodor Seuss "Ted" Geisel's legacy, as containing racially insensitive imagery.
"At eBay, we have a strict policy against hate and discrimination to ensure our platform remains a safe, trusted and inclusive environment for our global community of buyers and sellers," eBay Corporate Communications Specialist Parmita Choudhury said. "We're currently sweeping our marketplace to remove these items. It can take some time to review all existing listings and provide education to impacted users. We're also monitoring the newly published list to be reviewed."

That's not the American spelling. You're attempts to appear more civilised than you literally are are duly noted, you looser.

The reason I use "metre" is the exact same reason why I wrote an expletive-infused insult in verse: I learned poetry from Lord Byron.

Yeah but for saying that, he'd have no problem taking his wooden foot off and beating you senseless with it.
...Which you have to admit is ten times more of a baller move than simply using one's shoe.
