Re: WTF moment of the day

[Mirabeau]

Every day the WTFs keep coming.

The European Central Bank "manages the euro and frames and implements EU economic & monetary policy. Its main aim is to keep prices stable, thereby supporting economic growth and job creation."

Pretty big deal you might think. And yet look at this shower of cretins.

Bang of Nazism off all of this.

What do they actually mean when they say embrace equity?
Does it mean equality of outcome rather than equality of opportunity?
I'd love to hear the meat of the argument rather than just buzzwords, hashtags, and performative bollocks.

It said in the tweet that everything must be done to ensure the outcome. And equity means fair, equal. Achieving equity recognises that not everyone starts from the same position. And therefore some need more help. I'm only going on what I read about it. But given that girls get higher school marks, are more numerous in universities and benefit from quotas, I'm presuming these moronic self huggers mean they are going to do everything they can to level the field for the lads

I have a big WTF in the pipeline which I am looking into for verification before I post. It involves children in an Irish school who identify as non human creatures. Stayed tooooned.

When did every little foible and kink become acceptable and encouraged especially to kids ???

I’d quite like to cover Roger Federer in cookies n cream Haagen Dasz and lick it off - do I get a letter on the wierdo alphabet and a pronoun ???

Basically yes - it’s another example of the left’s bigotry of low expectations.

I’m a woman, I started work at 18, I’m now a kick in the arse from my mid 50s. I’ve got my own jobs fairly, I work hard, I pay my bills. No one gave me “equality of outcome” - it’s sink or swim. I waded in like a king (or queen).

Fck equity.

Dil Wickremasinghe has just announced to the world that she is in a polyamorous relationship...who knew and who cares but won't anybody think of the children.

I have literally never heard of them til now. Can you tell them I'll probably put on a washing later, maybe even during peak electric prices for the thrill of it.

Dil was an appalling broadcaster on Newstalk and they still feel obliged to foist her on us: https://www.goloudplayer.com/episodes/t ... MzYTFjNDU=

A colleague at the time of her/it's/whatever's last publicity blitz commented "we at least now know what Dil is short for ..."

I nicked that one!!

Today's WTF moment from the moron with the five gender identities and the push to make announcing pronouns mandatory.....

"To embrace neurodiversity and increase visibility we should wear badges with our mental health challenges on them!!" (Not big on patient confidentiality eh ?)

I am not walking round with a fcking badge that says "OCD, Anxiety Disorder and Paranoid Control Freak with Abandonment Issues".

When will it stop ??!!

Eurgh. We are living in the Ascendancy of the Misfits and Dweebs.

Idiots like this have found a way to surf along the crest of each fashionable wave and position themselves ideally for organisations seeking a virtue signalling opportunity. I could name a few others, but 'Dr' Ebun Joseph is the griftiest of grifters specialising in woke bullshit.

Very few people want this crap foisted on them but at least Dil W's is banal and relatively ignorable

I had the severe misfortune of working with her briefly. I will be buying my therapist a holiday home on the back of it!

CHINA-KISSING DEVICE.jpeg (68.07 KiB) Viewed 2119 times

https://m.independent.ie/world-news/chi ... 00602.html

A Chinese start-up inspired by lockdown isolation has invented a long-distance kissing machine that transmits users' kiss data collected through motion sensors hidden in silicon lips, which simultaneously move when replaying kisses received.

The MUA - named after the sound people commonly make when blowing a kiss - also captures and replays sound and warms up slightly during kissing, making the experience more authentic, said Beijing-based Siweifushe.

In the two weeks after its release, the firm sold over 3,000 kissing machines and received about 20,000 orders, he said.

The MUA resembles a mobile stand with realistic pursed lips protruding from the front. To use it, lovers must download an app onto their smartphones and pair their kissing machines, which they plug into the phone charging port. They activate the device using the app, then when they kiss it, it kisses back.

The device is available in several colours though with the same unisex lips. It has received mixed reviews, with some users saying it was intriguing whereas others said it made them feel uncomfortable. Among the top complaints was its lack of tongue.

Oh my freaking god, there's a demo video. I nearly inverted from the cringe.

Looks like Jim Reeves was right

Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone
Let's pretend that we're together all alone.
I'll tell the man to turn the jukebox way down low.
And you can tell your friend there with you, he'll have to go.

This was my most recent WTF moment:

https://apnews.com/article/afroman-poli ... f0794fddc0

Here it is in bullet points

• Afroman is a singer, rapper, songwriter in his late 40s.
  He had a big hit with "Because I got high" in 2000
  He still makes music and tours but has not had as big a hit as "Because I Got High"
  Last year police raided his ranch type home under dubious grounds
  There were no charges
  During the raid some officers were caught on Afroman's home security system doing some unprofessional and possibly illegal things
  Some money that was taken during the raid went missing and was never returned.
  Afroman wrote some songs about what happened and used some of his CC footage in the videos for the songs.
  One of those has 3.5M views on youtube as of today.
  Some of the officers in the footage are suing Afroman for “emotional distress, embarrassment, ridicule, loss of reputation and humiliation.”

The last one is the WTF moment.

WtF!! - for me anyway ... New Zealand Queenstown is 44 degrees south, equivalent of around the south of France, and Tasmania is further north, what the hell is going on ???

Can you imagine seeing the aurora in the south of France ? it just doesn't happen!

I remember seeing the aurora as a kid in Dublin and that was extremely rare ...

But again, Dublin is 53 degrees north ...
