 Sooo.... Gilbert Gottfried tweeted some tasteless jokes about Japan ("I just split up with my girlfriend, but like the Japanese say, 'There'll be another one floating by any minute now'”). Gottfried has been the voice of the Aflac duck for about a decade. Aflac does 75% of its business in Japan. Guess what happened next.

I thought he was smarter than that.

Clearly, I was wrong.
