Outrage Quotient Zero

Who was the British Royal who invited Rebel Wilson to a drug-fuelled orgy? the headline demanded.
    Which invited the response: “Who’s this Wilson woman and who cares anyway?”

Nearly, but not quite

The observant Littlejohn of the Daily Disaster has spotted that the Met has switched from busting people for the crime of Driving Whilst Black to Walking Whilst Jewish.
    There isn’t quite equivalence as those doing DWB would rather not be noticed but those doing WWJ are clearly all for it if they do it next to an Islamist street block.

Perverted Politics

The Labour lot have been accused of trying to scare old age pensioners with the deliberate lie that abolishing National Insurance means abolishing the state pension.
    But any oldies who don’t know that NI doesn’t fund the state pension have not been paying attention and deserve to stew in their own juice!

Just like me!

Social commentator, writer & commentator – they’re both standard descriptions for panelists on GB Views shows. But how seriously should they be taken?
    Well, both descriptions apply to me, based on what I do here. How seriously does anyone take that?

Primitives Rule!

You’d think there are lots of films about cave persons if you watch them with the subtitles switched on. Lots of instances of people going “Ugh!” during action sequences in the 2021 creature feature Megaboa. It’s a veritable ugh-fest.

All White

We have to elect a cosmetic mayor next month when we do the council election. In the good old days, we had a Lord Mayor who was mainly ceremonial. Now, we have to have some political crumb who wastes a ton of money, just like that prize berk they have in London.
    There are half a dozen candidates for the job, including the berkish incumbent, but the strange thing is that none of them is from an ethnic minority.
    We have an Indian PM, the Scottish bloke is from Gaza West from the way he acts, the Welsh bloke’s ancestors are presumably from Africa and the IRA is in charge at Stormont. You’d think from that situation that an ethnic would be compulsory on the mayoral list. But apparently not.

Amazing Amazon, Part Deux

Another go at tracking my delivery got the same message. When I went to the website instead of clicking the link in their email, I at least got the details of yesterday’s 3-hour delivery window.
    I ordered some small battery-powered lights, some batteries and a couple of packets of filters for a coffee machine. I got some suggestions for items related to my shipment a bit further down the page:
    a bottle of Zinc Bisglycinate tablets
        a multi-purpose squegee for windows
            some fancy toothpaste, probably overpriced
                    a medical fingertip pulse oximeter
                        sugar-free fruit water
That's as far as I went. Someone at Amazon has a lively imagination if any of that stuff is actually supposed to be related to what I ordered. Or maybe the list came from an A.l. with a weird sense of humour.
