Not all hope is lost, the ad says, because at least there are still refugees that will cook discounted food for White people! Many people on Twitter reacted very negatively to the ad.

The 74-year-old billionaire – who shuns interviews, rarely appears in public and once even dodged a meeting with the Spanish crown prince – simply sent a brief note to his 98,000 employees stating that he would soon ask Inditex vice-president and CEO Pablo Isla to take his place at the helm of the textile empire that brought affordable catwalk copies to the style-craving masses. "Dear friends," he began. "Now is the moment, with great hope and responsibility, to propose that Pablo Isla be named executive president at the next board meeting." He also praised the "combination of youth and experience" of his successor. True to his style, the humble son of a railway worker who went on to occupy the ninth slot in Forbes' 2010 list of the world's richest men offered no specific explanation as to why he had chosen this moment to pass the torch.

Ma routine capillaire pour cheveux longs - Soyons futiles ! Blake Lively, Shenae Grimes, Olivia Wilde, AnnaSophia Robb, ces actrices me fascinent toutes pour leurs cheveux sublimes que je jalouse secrètement. D’aussi loin que je me souvienne je n’ai jamais eu les cheveux plus courts qu’un carré et depuis quelques années j’entretiens mes cheveux longs comme un bien précieux avec moult produits hydratants et chouchoutants. Voici une partie de mon attirail pour en prendre soin. Les shampoings Je n’utilise jamais deux fois de suite le même shampoing, je ne sais pas trop pourquoi, je pense que j’ai dû lire quelque chose là-dessus dans un magazine féminin et depuis je m’y plie. Les après-shampoings J’ai mis un peu de temps à prendre le reflexe après-shampoings mais, à force de faire des balayages plus ou moins agressifs chez le coiffeur, j’ai compris que cette étape était réellement importante – voir indispensable – pour démêler mes cheveux sans trop morfler.
