These People Must Be A Special Kind Of Stupid

   That's if you have an emergency. What I heard this morning on my local radio station decidedly was not. Seems people have been calling one of the bigger 9-1-1 call centres in the country, with non-emergency garbage.
   I damn near scalded myself by almost dropping my double-double in my lap while heading to the office when I heard these. Everything from someone calling 9-1-1 to request a replacement for a slice of pizza, 'cause there's wasn't fresh, to someone looking for help finding their glasses!
   And the number one gripe of the centres "top 10"list: People calling to report wi-fi isn't working at their local coffee shop. Oh, my fucking god! Bone-heads like this should be fined at least 100 dollars for making such calls. And if they tie up the system to the point where someone is seriously hurt or dies because the operator was dealing with John-Q idiot, then that person should face criminal charges!
   'Nuff said.

GUILTY!!!!!

   On all 5 charges, too. The jury in Luka Magnotta's trial took a few days, but found this piece of shit guilty of 1st degree murder and 4 other charges in the May 2012 killing and dismemberment of Chinese student Jun Lin. Those "other charges" included offering an indignity to a human being, publishing offensive material (mailing body parts to political offices in Ottawa and a school in B.C), and harassing the Prime Minister and other parliamentarians.
   And now, the Canadian taxpayer will have to cover the cist of his incarceration, likely to exceed 120 thousand dollars a year for at east 25 years. Luka will get "special" treatment, likely segregated away from other prisoners. After all (engage sarcasm button) we do have to keep him safe and sound, don't we. We can't allow other nasty prisoners to harm him, can we (disengage sarcasm button).
   This poor excuse for a human being will, in all likelihood, appeal the conviction and mandatory life with no parole for 25 years sentence to the Quebec Court of Appeal. And when they uphold it, the Supreme Court of Canada.
   Look. He ADMITTED  killing Lin, but said he should be found not guilty due to a mental disorder. Cry me a fucking river. It's just a fucking shame the spineless politicians we elect won't bring back the Death Penalty for assholes like Magnotta and others like him.
   It's just a shame officials can't put him in the prison cantina with other inmates, lock the doors and switch off the security cameras for 15 minutes or so. Let the prison justice system do what our namby-pamby system can't. Kill the fucker.
   And finally, a note to Jun Lin's parents, family and friends. Sorry if the translation is off a bit:
我觉得对不起大家，并希望在时间，你可以从这个可怕的打击，你的家人愈合。我希望谁做这林俊的腐烂的人在他的牢房永远的脂肪.

Facebook Users: A Rant

   I admit it. I have a profile. And like most of us, I use it to keep in touch with friends and relatives near, far and overseas. But I also think I'm going to be making changes to my friends list soon. And it's all down to what a lot of people post.
   Don't get me wrong, I post quite a bit of useless stuff on there myself. Hell! I even take quizzes others on my list have taken. And like most of them do most of the time, I lie my ass off when answering. Don't tell me you haven't taken a quiz, didn't like the answer you got when you put in as truthful as possible check marks in the relevant boxes, then went back and "tweaked" those same answers to get the result you did want. That's the one that usually gets posted.
   But that's not what got me thinking about "un-friending" people from my list. It's baby pictures and videos posted by the younger members of the circle I travel in. Yes, we all love our kids, and yes, we're all proud of what they do. But posting a picture or video every fucking day is going way over the top. You may think your kid is the cutest thing ever. A lot of people would likely agree. But there are others among us who disagree. True, your kid isn't Elephant Man ugly, but truth be told, it's just another kid.
   Why the need to post a new picture every day? And why share the ones you get through your friends on your profile page? I've seen posts (and I'm not making this up) where people put a fresh pic of John or Judy right next to the one they took the week or the day before saying "see how quickly my baby is growing up?". No. I don't see it. Maybe if you posted one pic a month I could. But on a weekly or daily basis, how the fuck am I supposed to tell the difference? And what do you say if you reply? Yeah! Thanks for posting a "before" picture. I'd never recognize John or Judy. They must have grown 1/100th of an inch and added 2 or 3 grams of weight since yesterday.
   Then, there's the videos. They usually run 15 seconds, with the caption "look what my kid did today". The video usually shows some brat shaking a toy or smeared with a cookie. I had to look at one 4 fucking times before I realized all the kid did was hiccup!
  And it's not parents either. It seems a lot of people are using facebook as a free ad service. I've seen realtors posting on facebook to get exposure. "Come see my new listing". All they're doing is peddling something up Shit Creek St that ain't sold in yonks.
   Shit, I've even seen stuff re-posted from other pages about getting in on that Yoga class before it's booked up. Give me a break, and go take out an ad rather than wasting my time reading it, and your time posting it.
   But maybe there's a simpler answer to this rant. Maybe, just maybe, I've turned into a crusty old fuck. Nah, that ain't it.
   Rant over.

Sill Selling 41 Years Later

   Pink Floyd's iconic "Dark Side Of The Moon" was released in 1973. It was #13 on the latest Billboard Top 200 Album list. Thanks to ultra cheap pricing on Google-Play. And the fact t's one of the greatest fucking albums of all time! The last time it entered the charts was in October 2011, when it was #12 after a re-issue. DSOTM has now spent a total of 889 weeks on the charts. That's a staggering 17 YEARS, and it's still a fucking good album!
   It's also proof (if any is needed) of the longevity of music from that era. The re-issues of Led Zeppelin's first 5 albums also peaked high on the charts. They're also over 40 years old.
   In fact, if I had to pick a Ratbag "Top5" albums they would be (in no particular order) Floyd's DSOTM, Zeppelin 4, Deep Purple Machine Head, the Beatles Sgt. Pepper and Sabbath's Paranoid.
   Yes, they're old. And yes, they're still relevant. Much more so than anything that little pus- bubble Justin Bieber has put out. Or most "rap stars" for that matter. Or a lot of today's "pop" singers. Lady Gaga comes to mind.
   Why? Because bands in the '70's could actually play the songs they recorded. Without lip-synching. Or canned "music". Or auto-tuning. They had something called "talent", which seems to be sadly lacking in the majority of the music industry today. Not saying there are no talented people out there. There are. Just few and far between.
   And my favorite line from DSOTM is the final one: "There is no dark side of the moon. As a matter of fact, it's all dark".
   Classic.

Another Kardashian

   This time, Kourtney Kardashian has kalved, spitting our kid #3. Rhetorical question: Does the world really kare? I mean just today we've had hostage takings in Australia and Belgium. The world economy is going into the shitter over low oil process. And we hear about another member of the Kartrashian Klan?
   For that matter, why the fuck am I blogging about this?
   Oh, yeah. Just to show how fucking low the so-called "news" industry has sunk. I guess that's pretty self-explanatory, isn't it?
   'Nuff said.

Glad I Don't Follow Trends

   I'll get to the topic in a minute. First, I must apologize for the last of posts lately (the last one was November 26th). I can only say I've been busy lately, even working some weekends, which is not normal for me to have to do. But, we've been short staffed lately, and we all need to "pitch in" and do our part,.

   Now, to the topic of THIS post. I'm kind of a stay the course type of person, who doesn't "rock the boat" too much. Not that I haven't, and not that I'm what you call overly compliant. I do my thing, and do it very well. And if my hair's longer than most everyone else in the office, so what.
   But even I have my own personal line that I'll never cross, and the following are way over that line.
   First, there's beard baubles:

   And they are just what they look like. X-mas decorations stuck on a beard. To be fair, profits from the sale of these are going to charity, but honestly the fucking things would look better on a tree. I've had a full beard in the past, and I can honestly say the thought of taking mini decorations off the tree and attaching them to my bear never occurred..
   Then, there's the latest trend for the fairer sex:

   Yup! Dyed arm-pit hair. Maybe I AM old-fashioned, but this isn't exactly a sexy turn-on for me. Or a lot of guys for that matter. This new 'trend' apparently started in Seattle a few months back and, unfortunately, is catching on. Or so it seems to be. I just don't find it attractive.
   So, yeah. I guess I am a stay the course, don't rock the boat kind of guy after all.

Happy Thanksgiving

   Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day in the U.S, and I'd like to take the time to wish all my American viewers the best of the festive season. Of course, this also marks the start of the "golden quarter" for retailers, with "Black Friday" and "Cyber Monday" both coming up in the next few days.
   There will be some stores in many major U.S cities opening tomorrow as well as Friday.
   So, stuff your faces, and empty your wallets!
   And just a reminder to stay away from the pumpkin pie, since this is how they're made:

   Happy Thanksgiving!

Guess Who's Getting Married

   Yup! Charlie Manson is tying the knot. Manson is serving a life sentence for the brutal slayings of 7 people, including actress Sharon Tate and supermarket executive Leno LaBianca. And while Chuck didn't play an active role in either of the butcherings, he did order them, and his followers in the Manson "Family" carried them out.
   That was back in 1969. Chuck's been serving life since being found guilty in 1971. Originally, he (and some of his other minions) were sentenced to death, but those were commuted.
   And now, at age 80, he's getting married to a 26 year old woman, Afton Burton, who left her Midwestern home 9 years ago, and has been trying to exonerate Chuck since. No date has been set, but apparently it has to happen before February 7th next year, or Charlie will have to re-apply for a license.
   As for the "why": Well, she says she loves the guy. She also said she is interested in working on his case, and marrying him would allow her to get information not available to nonrelatives. But don't worry, there will not be any "wedding night", even if Chuck can get it up at his age. Under California law, as a life prisoner with no parole date, Manson is not entitled to family visits.
   He can, however, invite 10 guests to the nuptials, so long as they're not inmates. Lets just hope this son of a bitch dies first.

Things You Can't Un-See

   Yeah, that's Kim Lard-Ass-Ian in that Paper Magazine shoot we've all heard about. All I can say is...YUCK! Not that I don't appreciate a nicely rounded derriere on a woman, far from it. But it looks like she glued 2 Zorbs together and oiled them up. I think this is a photo-shop job pure and simple.
   No woman has an ass that shape. I mean, if it's firm, she'd tip over one way or other. Plus, she's in her 30's, and has calved. That thing should be cellulite city by now, butt there's no sign of dimples. And then, there's her waist. Ain't no way it can be that small in proportion.
   And it gets worse. She turned around and gave a full-frontal "money shot", which (if you care to google it yourself, I'm not posting it here) looks just as photo-shopped as the back view. Her tits don't sag, her gut is firm, and her nether region.....well, I'm leaving that one alone. Not that I don't appreciate women in a state of undress, but what I saw left me feeling.....meh!.
   It almost looks like they found an ass, a set of boobs and a torso, mushed them together in a Frankenstein kind of way, and stuck a picture of her head on top of the resulting mess. As far as the Kartrashian girls go, she's probably the best looking of the lot (which still ain't sayin' much). But Kim, put your clothes back on. The caption on this, by the way, was "break the internet". All this did was break my eyes.
   Has anyone got something to purge this from my brain? Other than a 10 gauge shotgun. Please??
   'Nuff said.
*****UPDATE*****
   Having dissed Kim, saying I don't find her particularly attractive, I've decided to add this picture of what I think is a beautiful woman:

Pause And Remember

   It is the 11th day of the 11th month. And at the 11th hour, people across the Commonwealth paused to remember those who gave their lives in war. This year is a little more special than others, since it's the 100th anniversary of the start of World War I and the 75th anniversary of the start of World War II.
   There are no more World War I vets left. Florence Green served in the WRAF (Women's Royal Air Force), and enlisted in September 1918. Of course, she never saw combat, but she was still the last of the last. Florence died in 2012.
   The last verified combat vet of that war was Claude Choules, who served in the Royal Navy. He died in 2011 The last surviving vet to serve in the trenches was Harry Patch, who died in 2009. Franz  Kunstler was the last Central Powers veteran. He died in 2008.
   The list of surviving World War II vets is also getting shorter and shorter. It's possible the last veteran of that war may pass away before I do. And I'm no spring chicken, either.
   While both global conflicts are the centre of most services, lets not forget those who died in Korea, Afghanistan and all other armed conflicts. Their sacrifice should be remembered also.
   To those who died, and to all who served, I salute you.

Easy Stomach, Don't Roll Over Now

   And it wasn't a bad night of burritos and beer, the expired milk or that slightly fuzzy looking slice of 5 day old pizza that's got my gut trembling either. Nope! Seems someone had a brain-wave (or a brain-fart), and came up with this:

   Your eyes are not deceiving you. That is, in fact, Mountain Dew and Doritos. I happen to like both, thank you very much., but maybe not after this. Someone has come up with (barf bags on standby) Dorito's flavored Mountain Dew. And, without word of a lie, they're calling it "Dewitos", and it'll be nacho cheese flavor.
   For now (and hopefully forever) this monstrosity is confined to a few college campuses in the States, but it could soon make it's way to a broader market. One person says it tastes like shoving a fistful of the chips into your mouth, and guzzling a Dew.
   Will I try it if it ever makes it's way to my market? No. No way in hell, and I'm quite adventurous when it comes to food.
   But I guess for real lazy people, this will be a huge boon! Just think of it. No opening a bag of Doritos. No cramming a fistful in your gob. None of that annoying chewing. Nope! Just open a bottle, and chug it down. Hell. I'll go one better. Dump some vodka or Everclear in the bottle as well for a real buzz! Happy purging.

Brilliant Idea!.....NOT

   That's Bank of Canada governor Stephen Poloz, and he's had what he thinks is a really good idea. He thinks jobless university graduates could beef up their resumes by working for free. Yup! Work for free. In a speech to a parliamentary committee, he went on to say young Canadians and others struggling to find work should acquire more experience through unpaid internships or volunteering until the country's hobbled job market picks up.
   And if that's not enough, he said jobless youth should get "some real-life experience even though you're discouraged, even if it's for free". That's gonna fan the flames of discontent among young people, for sure.
   Even a crusty old fuck like me has a problem with that. Not even prisoners work for "free" in this country, let alone a kid with a high educational debt looking to (hopefully) start paying it down. That's to say nothing about building self esteem. Now, all this comes as M.P's were starting to debate the thorny issue of unpaid internship some young people looking to get experience in their chosen field sometimes face. Something I feel, by the way, should not be allowed to happen. If you work, you should get paid. No matter if you're lazy, and love nothing more than hanging out if your parents basement playing World of Warcraft or Diablo.
   That said, there are unfortunately youth out there who would prefer doing just that. If and when they may or may not be protesting like those Occupy idiots did a few years back.
   And Stevie baby: Maybe you should give up your fat cat salary, benefits and perks and work for free instead of making idiotic pronouncements like that.

The P.C Police Have Gone Too Far

   Way too fucking far. Seems not a few schools in Canada have basically banned Halloween, and are now calling it "Orange and Black" day instead. And it's over fears they are not being "inclusive" enough.
   Fuck off.
   In fact, fuck as far off as you can get. They're worried about Halloween's supposed ties with the occult. Bullshit. "Halloween" is, in fact, a contraction of "All Hallows Evening" which precedes the christian holiday of All Hallows Day, celebrating saints and other stuff. Yeah, there are some pagan roots, but to link it to the occult.....bullshit.
   So now, kids across Canada can't celebrate a day almost as big as Christmas day is, because some namby pamby asshole decided (and probably bitched about it) that Halloween excludes people with different beliefs.
   Choke on my choad. As mentioned, Christmas has been stolen from kids for the same reason. Making it more "inclusive". And just like Christmas there will be no pageant, parade or other celebration in many schools today.
   Ya know what? If holidays like Halloween and Christmas "offend" you, keep your own fucking brat home and let other kids have some fun. And oh, yeah. YOU chose to come to this country. YOU should adapt somewhat to our system. You wanna worship your own god? So be it. You wanna keep your cultural ties strong? So be it. Just quit shoving YOUR values and beliefs down other people's throats and fucking it up for everyone else!
   Rant over.

Random Ratbag Ramblings

   And where better to start then with those damned Kardashian Klowns. Seems the P.C police have got their panties in a knot over the Kardashian Kids Kollection at Babies 'R Us. Seems some parents don't think having their age zero to 24 month girl dressing up in leatherette mini-skirts is a good idea. Maybe they've got a point on that. Here's a better one. Don't buy Kardashian trash!
   Speaking of Kartrashians (well, a Jenner actually), 17 year old Kylie is under fire for what appears to be a big botox booster to her lips. I've seen the pic, and I gotta admit she looks gross with the 'enhancement'. But then, she's 17. And what the hell do 17 year olds know, right?
   Moving on: The P.C police are also pissed at Victoria's Secret for their "perfect body" ads. So fucking what. They've got great bodies, and can flaunt them. It's advertising for fuck sakes, not real life. O-kay, some of the models look like they could stand to eat a few more meals, but so what? Victoria's Secret was never designed or intended for "real women" anyway. In fact, I wonder if the ads target men. Using sex to sell? Nah. Companies would never stoop that low (sarcasm button needed).
   Moving on: Who the fuck is Jian Ghomeshi, and why the fuck should we care? Apparently, he's a recently fired CBC hack who had his own radio show. What it was about, I don't know or care. I loath the CBC, and think the taxpayer funded network should be privatized. But I digress
   Seems Jian is suing CBC for 55 million dollars after getting the chop. But why? Did he say "fuck" on the air?. No. Has he been accused of slapping and choking women during sessions of alleged BDSM sex? Actually, yeah. At least 8 women have come forward suggesting they were choked and/or slapped without consent. If these allegations prove true, and if he's found guilty and convicted, Jian should be taken out and shot.

Tragic News In Entertainment

   O-kay, maybe not. Cable network TLC has cancelled "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo". About fucking time! I've managed to escape the trailer trash show about the fat, ugly little brat who, apparently, was a contestant in another "reality" show, "Toddlers and Tiara's" (which lead to her and her family getting their own show). At least for the most part. But I've been subjected to enough seconds of it to develop a deep loathing of all things "Honey Boo-Boo".
   Why was this piece of shit cancelled? Low ratings? No. Was the "matriarch" of this junk, "Mama June", caught cavorting with a convicted child molester? Actually, yes. And her new "man" was convicted (according to gossip website TMZ) of molesting one of June's own daughters, who was all of 8 at the time. Nice guy, huh? He should've been taken out and shot.
   It seems June was seen "cuddling" with this guy in a picture taken about a month or so ago. Yeah, I know. I threw up a little in my mouth, too. The asshole in question was just sprung from prison after serving 10 years for the assault, details of which I will NOT document here, and Mama "picked up" with him. Apparently, he's a former ex of hers.
  At least the family won't starve, even though they all look like they could benefit from skipping a few months of meals and living of their lard. Seems Mama is adept at feeding the family on 80 bucks a week, through coupons, and the judicious harvesting of road-kill. At least with that, most of the animal had already been "grilled".
   But the sudden loss of income might make life tougher for them. They may have to move back into the single-wide from the double-wide.
   And as for that fat, disgusting, piggy little brat "Honey", her career may not be over yet. She could be the poster-child for making full-term abortions legal and readily available.

Call Him "Stumpy"

   Seems a judge in Alabama has thrown out a lawsuit by some dick-less wonder over a botched surgery. In this case, a circumcision that ended up taking more than "a little off the top". Our friend "Stumpy", or John Banks as he's properly known, and his wife had tried a 2nd time to sue the hospital and doctors who they say left him a little "short". They say instead of just a little snip here, and a little snip there, went a little far and (Johnny claims) lopped of his manhood!
   I don't know if John was trying to show the judge his "Johnny" and the evidence didn't "stand up in court", but the judge dismissed the lawsuit, saying the claim wasn't specific enough under malpractice laws.
   I don't know how much more specific you can get, not being able to whip out your wang. However, the judge did leave the door open for John to try and come again. Something he apparently can't do now.
   And what about his stuffed animal collection? What's going to happen to "Spank":

   The monkey
   And "Choke":

   The chicken? Will he have to "hand" them off to someone else?
   And Johnny: Try and keep your pecker up, guy!

A Sad Day In Ottawa

   It finally happened here. At least one gunman with a double-barrel shotgun opened fire in the nations Capital. It started at the War Memorial, where a soldier standing as an honour guard was brutally shot, and later died. Then, at least one gunman ran into Parliament, where he was shot dead by the Sergeant At Arms in the house. But not before at least 30 shots echoed through the corridors of power, and not before a security guard was also wounded.
   Police believe 3 shooters may have been involved in this attack, because (at the time of this writing) there were reports of gunfire outside Parliament, as well as inside.
   And (at the time of this writing) the guessing begins as to who was responsible. Naturally, the immediate finger of blame is pointing at Islamic extremists, given the fact that when Canada joined the air-war against ISIL terrorists in Iraq they promised attacks. That, and a man who became "radicalized" ran down 2 soldiers with a car, killing one, before being killed himself.
   And the irrational reactions have also started, with either racial or religious profiling already underway before we know who and why. Now, I'm not a fan of Islam, or any religion for that matter, but to paint absolutely everyone with the same brush, and call for mass deportations is unrealistic. It will be a popular call, but still unrealistic.
   So, what happens now? Well, cops will do their investigation and likely make some arrests. Security will be greatly stepped up not only in Ottawa, but provincial capitals and likely major government buildings as well. And life will go on.
   To the family of the slain soldiers, my deepest condolences. To those responsible for the attack: Fuck off and die, you cunts.

Damn It, He's Getting Better

  It seems Sum Dum Fuk, er I mean Kim Jung Un, may be on the mend. At least according to State media reports. North Korea's whacky fat dictator hadn't been seen in 40 days, fuelling speculation he'd shuffled off this mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the choir invisible.
   But it seems all the talk of 'lil Kim popping off is just that. Talk. There are 2 new video's of him, walking with the aid of a cane. What wasn't said was when these videos were taken. There's no clue if it was September 3rd (the last day he was seen) or October 13th.
   Without him holding up something like today's edition of the New York Times, we can still live in hope that the little fat fuk has indeed snuffed it.
   Of course if that happens, the power vacuum created wouldn't last long. One of his siblings would fill the spot faster that a frog with a fart.
   Chances are, though, 'lil Kim is alive and kicking. Although right now, with just one leg.
   'Nuff said.

Aw, 'Lil Kim Has A Boo-Boo

   Yup! Everyone's favorite tin-pot dictator Kim Jung Un, or as I call him Sum Dum Fuk, is on the limp. North Korea's leader ain't been seen for quite a while, and was noticeably M-I-A from an important event. Namely, the anniversary of the founding of his country by his Grand-dad. Seems someone else laid wreaths at the mausoleum of Gramps and dear old Dad instead.
   So, the big question is: What's taken Kim down? Some sources with 'knowledge' of the north say he pulled a tendon or ligament doing military exercises with his generals. And judging by the look of him, he needs it! He's turning into a little fat Fuk!
   Other reports say he was bitten by a dog. Maybe one of the ones he sicced on an uncle to have him killed. In fact, he's been so A-WOL that state media, which usually fawns over him, hasn't said jack-shit about him in a month. An absence that long in a communist country usually means the 'dear leader' has taken a permanent vacation. Something like the 9 mm kind. However, reports from the North continue saying Kim is the man in charge, but will need 100 days to recover. Either that, or he's already dead and the party in-fighting to pick a successor has started. If that's the case, we can expect to hear in a few months how 'lil Kim fought a brave fight, but succumbed to an unmentioned disease.
   In which case, we'll be rid of Sum Dum Fuk. Until the powers that be name another dumb fuck to take over.
   I just wonder if they use black and white smoke like they do at the vatican when they choose their new 'leader'? Habemus Dictator!

Totally Ab "Zorb" Ing

   You've probably heard of "zorbing". That's when you climb into what almost looks like an inflatable hamster freedom ball for humans and start rolling around in it. There've been videos of people going down hills etc, but in a case of extreme "zorbing" comes the story of some dumb shit who tried to "zorb" from the U.S to Bermuda and back, tracing the so-called "Bermuda Triangle".
   Yup! The 42 year old peace activist tried to walk more than 3 thousand miles in a cylindrical one with outboard paddles attached. Something like an old paddle-wheeler. On board, he had water and energy bars for food. Nothing else, just energy bars.
   His walk came to an end when, tired and disoriented, he radioed the U.S Coast Guard for help. This comes after the Coast Guard warned him earlier this week about his 'quest', only to have their warning ignored. The man, an Iranian refugee, told them he planned on fishing to augment his nutrition bars. He didn't say just how, or even if, he planned on cooking the catch.
   And while they rescued the guy, his bubble was lost at sea. Along with his passport, Green Card and shoes.
   I just can't, or don't want to, imagine how the inside of that zorb must've stunk.
   Hope he never breeds!

Eff Off!

   That pretty much sums up what Canada's broadcast regulator, the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications Commission, had to say to Netflix and Google after both had the audacity to challenge the CRTC's "authority" when it comes top internet service. Submissions from both at recent hearings into the future of TV were deleted from the record. Why? Seems both told the CRTC to go fuck themselves after the body ordered them to turn over sensitive subscriber information. Good on Netflix and Google. As for the CRTC: Go fuck yourself!
   This "broadcast regulator" is archaic in their effort to promote home-grown 'entertainment'. And I use the term 'entertainment' lightly. Have you seen the shit Canadian companies produce? If not, count yourself lucky. With very, VERY few exceptions, most of the TV production in this country is a joke. Living here, I've been subjected to crap show after crap show. "The Beachcombers", "King of Kensington", "Little Mosque on the Prairies", and the excrementally un-funny "Corner Gas" are just a few examples.
   Given those shows, it's no wonder people are cutting the cable and going to Netflix and Google for their entertainment needs. And as far as news coverage, well, you can get what you want on-line.
   To me, it seems the only function the CRTC has is to prop up the CBC, Canada's 'national' network, and the main producer of the diarrhea they continue to flush into our living rooms. I think it's way past time for both agencies to fade to black.

More Than One Application May Be Needed

   With terrorist attacks on the rise, specifically in the middle east, and more specifically Islamic terrorism, it might be time for an application of Preparation H-Bomb. One shot may be enough to rid the world of those pesky pains in the ass, but a second application may be needed.
   Of course, the big problem is that the hugely vast majority of followers of Islam want what we all do. Peace, shelter, food on the table. And yes, there are terrorists in other religions as well. It's just the Islamic ones getting the headlines.
   But with the terror threat mushrooming, a mushroom cloud over them may spell relief. Maybe (not even remotely possible admittedly) we could somehow get all these assholes into one place at the same time and drop the bomb. Some real shit-hole of a place. Prince Albert, Saskatchewan comes to mind.

What A Bunch Of Tits

   That's Jasmine Tridevil, or so she calls herself. And yes, she is sporting an extra boob, like the 3-titted hooker in Total Recall. The 21 year old had claimed she had the 3rd tit (complete with a nipple tattooed on) surgically added for 20 thousand dollars, to make herself less attractive, and avoid being asked for dates.
   The claim, just like the extra boob, was fake. And you can just tell by looking at it the appendage was not grafted on surgically. Not to mention, no plastic surgeon in his right mind would ever do that (or am I being naïve). In fact, the exact opposite might have happened, with guys lining up to have a look (not to mention the hope of coping a feel) of all 3 boobs.
   And speaking of useless phony tits, Kween Kardashian is kalling her marriage kwits with Bruce Jenner. Yep! After 22 years, both Kris Kartrashian and Jenner filed nearly identical divorce papers within 24 hours of each other.
  Whaddya wanna bet this whole kluster fuck will end un on their shitty "reality" TV show.

We Now Know The Answer To One Burning Question

   And that question is: "Are you really that fucking stupid?" It stems from something sweeping social media about putting your iPhone 6 in a microwave to charge it. Yup! It's said doing so will activate an alleged "wave" feature of the iOS 8 operating system. It says that users can charge their devices by simply placing them in household microwaves for 60 seconds at 700w or 70 seconds at 800w, and thus do away with a standard charging adapter.
   Holy shit! If you're really that dumb, go ahead and do it. Put your brand new iPhone 6 or 6 plus in the microwave and nuke it. It seems a few people have been duped into doing it. What I'd like to know is who put this out? Apple, in order to sell more units?, or their main cellphone rival Samsung?
   And seriously, if people really are that fucking stupid, let's hope the never breed.
   'Nuff said.

Whoop-De-Fucking-Do

   So, the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus came out today. As the title of this post might suggest, I could give a rats ass. The screen is bigger, and that's about the most noticeable change. The larger screen also brings them in line with main rival Samsung in the battle of the bigger screen. There's also a new feature, Apple Pay, which allows owners of the devices to pay at the register by tapping the phone.
   I freely admit that I'm not the most technology savvy person out there, but given what's happened with the iCloud recently, I'm sure it won't be long before someone hacks these devices.
   I will not be getting one of these. In fact, there are no Apple products in my home. Not a pad, or a pod, let alone a phone. I hate all the hoopla surrounding these "events", and I do not like Apple to begin with. I'm sticking with my Android for now, and likely will in the future. As for shit like Apple Pay, no way. I'll still pay my bills at the bank, thank you, not on line.
   I gotta admit, I had to laugh when the very first person in the world to get one dropped the fucking thing as he was opening the box. The screen apparently didn't break. Lucky for him.

I Wouldn't Have Known Otherwise

   It's a god-damn shame sarcasm does not translate from my keyboard to your computer screen. If it did, this post would be dripping with it. I turned in to what they call "Canada's Weather Network" (IE: The Weather Network) to get my latest forecast. I just missed it, but knew it'd come on in another 10 minutes. While I was waiting, I happened to see them screen something billed as "The Top 5 Signs of Fall".
   Having been through more than 230 changes of season in my life, I was interested to see what these were. And I was aghast at what they told me. Their number 5 sign of fall is frost. According to the report (and I am NOT making this up), frost generally happens overnight when temperatures get down to the freezing mark. Number 4: Geese flying south. The reporter said you get used to seeing them all summer, then suddenly, their they are, heading south. 3: Shorter days. That's when the sun starts setting earlier and earlier, and eventually we're eating dinner in the dark. 2: Hurricane season picks up, with September the prime month for tropical storms. And number 1 sign fall is near: The leaves change color.
   Now, more sarcasm, so bear with me. I don't know why they did this, or who it was aimed at, since all 5 "signs" are self explanatory to almost anyone living in the Northern Hemisphere IE: Immigrants to our country). I guess it's to help anyone who just moved from the equator. Or maybe the planet Lagash from Isaac Asimov's classic sci-fi novella "Nightfall", or some other planet where seasonal changes are extremely rare, or non-existent.
   Probably, they needed to fill a minute, and had nothing remotely more interesting to talk about.

Time For A Re-Think

   That's Cody Legebokoff. He was found guilty of first degree murder in the killings of 3 women and a 15 year old girl in British Columbia. Under Canadian law, the maximum he can get is life with no parole for 25 years. Unless he's declared a dangerous offender, under which he can be held indefinitely. He's now 24, which means he could be released when he's 49. Which is a travesty. I think he should be the poster boy for a return of the death penalty in Canada, something I've said in past posts I favor.
   And he's not the only one either. In Alberta, a woman with the apt last name of Coward, allegedly killed her 9 year old daughter after a bitter custody battle over Amber Lucius. She's charged with first degree murder.
   Then, there's Luka Magnotta:

   He's charged with first degree murder in the killing of a Chinese student. He also allegedly mailed his body parts to Ottawa and B.C. I know, innocent until proven guilty is the rule of law. As it should be. But if and when found guilty, life in prison (with taxpayers footing bills that can reach 90 thousand dollars a year or more) isn't enough in these cases.
   Face it. There's no hope of rehabilitation. There's no way they can ever re-integrate into society. All they are is burdens for 25 years or more. And their being locked up is cold comfort to the families and loved ones of the victims in many of these cases.
   Now before you point out to me that the death penalty is not a deterrent, I acknowledge it isn't. It's making the guilty pay. And often with a lot less trauma, pain and suffering than they afforded their victims.
   And yes, I'm aware of the debate going on in the States about lethal injections being "cruel and inhumane". So, come up with another way of doing it.  Put them in a hypoxia chamber, take them up to the equivalent of 45 thousand feet, pop the cork on the chamber and let them die. Apparently, there's a lot less "trauma" and "suffering". The victim passes out long before death due to a lack of oxygen.
   Of course, you could always leave their fate in the hands of the families. I think they'd possibly come up with something a little more fitting.
   But it won't happen here. Our namby-pamby politicians are scared shitless of taking the bull by the horns and toughening up laws for offenders.

Random Ratbag Ramblings

   Nothing specific on the old Ratbag radar, just a few potential and current law cases. In the U.S, video of Ray Rice of the NFL Baltimore Ravens punching his then fiancée, knocking her out, has been released. What a sick fuck! I don't give a flying fuck what "provocation" he might have had, you don't hit a woman. And then drag her unconscious body out of the elevator where you hit her.
   Needless to say, there are calls being made for him to be turfed out of football altogether. If he ever does play again, It's my fervent hope on his very first play, some big, hulking linebacker tackles him so hard it snaps his spine, paralysing him.
   The most unbelievable thing about the whole sordid case is the fact the woman he hit married the son of a bitch!

   Speaking of sons of bitches, jury selection has started for this man:

   Luka Magnotta is charged with first degree murder in the killing and dismemberment of a Chinese student, Jun Lin, in May 2012. Lin's body parts were them mailed out to locations in Ottawa, and B.C. It's thought jury selection could take 2 weeks, and the trial another 6 to 8. If found guilty, under Canadian law, the maximum is life with no parole for 25 years. Unless he's declared a dangerous offender, and can be held indefinitely.
   I've got a better idea. Hand the asshole over to his victims family and let them deal with him. Or at least bring back the death penalty in Canada.

   Lastly from the sick fuck file, a woman in Alberta has been charged with the first degree murder of her own daughter. The woman (with the appropriate last name "Coward") was found standing outside the vehicle the 9 year olds body was found in. Seems there was a bitter divorce, with the girl's custody the main issue
   Again, I think the death penalty should apply.
   But then again, that's just my opinion.

Just Hit "Delete", Kim

   Ratings for her "reality" show must really be bad. But not so bad that Kim Kartrashian needs to do this. Seems her and rap 'star' hubby Kanye may have made a sex tape. For the love of humanity Kim DELETE THE THING!!!!! Seems during an interview, she was asked about the possibility that one exists, and was, for a change, rather coy. She simply said "If we have, it's never something I want to go public".
   Thank fuck for that! I'm sure more than a few people would like to see her and hubby doing the vertical mamba, but not me. You know from past posts how I feel about this leech. I'll keep my comments about her husband private.....for now.
   If you do indeed have a tape of you getting railed by Kanye, delete the damn thing. And if your show sucks that bad, cancel it immediately and never EVER return to TV.

Really? Fuckin' Really??

   I think technology and narcissism have gone a little too far. For about 75 bucks, you can now get a toaster you can download a "selfie" to, and literally 'print' your face on toast. It's called, not surprisingly, the "Selfie Toaster":

   How does it work? Apparently, you take a high quality selfie, or image of your choice, download it to a company in Vermont and they craft a special, one of a king toaster that (from what I could see, keeping in mind I'm not a technical genius) has some kind of plasma cutter thst burns or etches your image on the on the element inside the toaster. Yes, the result is edible, and you can have one image per slot. Sort of a 'his and hers' thing.
   No, you can't simply download an image on to the toaster to fit your whim, since there is a manufacturing step. And that's probably just as well. Who needs to see naked pictures on their toast first thing in the morning anyway? On the plus side, your toaster can't be "hacked" and your image "stolen". Or replaced with something offensive. It also means you can't do the "sexting" thing, using toast.
   I will NOT be getting one, and not because I can find a better use for 75 bucks. It's simply to do with the fact I don't do breakfast to begin with, and rarely eat toast for any other meal. It wasn't said if it'd work on waffles or English muffins.

Time For More Celeb-Retards

   And we'll start with one of my faves..Justin Bieber. Seems the little impacted anal hair is in trouble with the law.....again! Apparently, he's charged with dangerous driving and assault after an ATV and mini-van collided near his hometown in Ontario, and an occupant of the van (supposedly a paparazzi) was in an 'altercation' with him.
   Apparently, the Beeb was driving the ATV with sometime girlfriend Selena Gomez on board and were 'chased' by the photog. Justin: Next time you wanna collide with a mini van while you're on your ATV, please twist the throttle full open, and don't wear a helmet. Also, leave Selena behind. She is kinda hot.
   Anyway, he was arrested after going to a local OPP detachment, and is due in court later this month. And since he's on probation in the U.S for the egging incident, he may well end up behind bars. Seriously, it's time someone gave this punk a pants-down ass whipping with a hickory switch. Or a Ping-Pong paddle.
   Moving on:

   Jennifer Lawrence isn't a happy camper these days, after someone hacked her phone and posted nude pictures onto the 'net. She calls it an invasion of privacy, and the FBI is looking into it. Not the nude pics, the case itself.
   This comes after similarly "compromising" pictures of Kate Upton surfaced recently.
   You know what? Boo-fucking-hoo! Anyone's phone can be hacked, accessed and stuff stolen and posted on the web. Especially if you're a 'celebrity'. Sure, you might be able to upgrade security on your device, but sure as shit someone's gonna come up with a way around it.
   And secondly, why have naked pictures taken of yourself and stored on your device in the first place? Grow a fucking brain!

Corruption!

   And it's struck my favorite little tin-pot dictator Kim Jung Un, or as I call him, Sum Dum Fuk. Seems a high ranking bank official in the Peoples Republic of North Korea is trying to defect. The dude in question has vamoosed to Russia, and is trying to seek asylum in a 3rd country.
   The best part is not only did he vanish, but so did 5 million dollars, procured (according to the U.S.A) through illicit activities. Surprise, surprise. Needless to say 'lil Kim is pissed, and has asked Russia to help capture the guy. Who, like Kim's uncle, will likely be fed to the dogs if he's ever returned.
   The West would dearly love to talk to the guy, since he's got the inside skivvy on what goes on in the whack-a-doodle north.
   Good luck guy! I hope you evade the assassination squads little leader Fat Fuk will be sending out for you.

Not For Me

   The Ice Bucket challenge. It's to raise money and awareness of ALS, or Lou Gehrig's disease. You've no doubt seen it, and possibly taken part in the challenge, getting doused, as the name implies, with a bucket of ice water.
   There's no way in hell I'm doing it. Not even on a day when the mercury gets into the 100's (38 Celsius or over). And not because I don't support fundraising for ALS. I do. But I also don't think cold-shock therapy is the answer. Yes, it's got a lot of people talking about it, but there are those who could suffer adverse medical effects from the shock of being soaked. Frankly, when I do finally suffer a fatal heart attack, I'm hoping to not have it triggered by a dousing.

Holy Fucking Shit!

   My all time favorite comedian, Robin Williams, is dead at age 63. Apparently, it was suicide, and it happened today (August 11).
   He was a very funny man but (apparently) like almost all funny men, he was not very happy inside. I don't know how it happened, or what lead to it, nor is it any of my business. But goddamn! He is going to be missed.
   RIP Robin Williams, and thanks for the many, many years of laughs. Now we know what the pricetag was for you. You will be missed.

What Haven't I Done For A While? I Know: RANT!!!!!

   Tis true! I haven't blown a gasket in months. No wonder I've been a little more pissy than usual lately. So, time to blow off some steam (and embarrass a few people while I'm at it).
   Social media. It's wonderful, isn't it? It gives me a chance to vent on this blog platform. I can communicate with friends and family thousands of miles away either via email or Facebook. But some people are simply too fucking stupid to use it, and/or can't leave it alone.
   Example: A woman in the U.S got busted for shoplifting recently. She wasn't nabbed by an eagle-eye store dick walking the aisles looking for pilferers. Nor was she caught at the checkout with some articles tucked up her skirt. Nope. This stupid bitch walked out of the store with a dress and other items, got home, got changed into the gear she took without paying, took a selfie and posted it as her facebook cover page!
   Oh. my fucking god! I just hope she never breeds. Or gets the chance to.
   Mass example: In Washington DC, National Geographic recently put "cell phone" lanes on a sidewalk down one block. Basically, they divided it in lanes marked "cell phone", "no cell phone" and "walk at your own risk". Surprise, surprise: many pedestrians seemed to ignore the markings, though there were some who took pictures of the novel signage. No word if there were any accidents.
   O-kay: I admit it. I'm a facebook junkie. But I also know enough to stop checking my page to see how many "likes", "shares" and "comments" I've had every 5 minutes or less. That can wait until I'm finished WORK.. And I also admit I carry a cell phone when I'm away from home. When I'm at home, it gets ignored, left of a counter in the kitchen, usually on charge. The people I know have my land-line and email address, so staying in touch shouldn't be a big deal.
   I never EVER take selfies, which I find both arrogant and at times ignorant. I also know when to either power off my cell, or simply ignore it when it rings/vibrates. Especially when I'm driving. If it's important, they'll leave a message.
   So, put down that cell phone, don't post that selfie you took in clothes you just stole from a store. Keep your head up and look around you. You might find the world is a wonderful place, and a lot bigger than that screen you've been staring at for hours.

"Reality" T.V Has Finally Gone Too Far

   "American Idol" "Dancing With The Stars" "The Voice". Just 3 reasons why I never watch broadcast or cable TV anymore. And now, I can add a 4th. VH-1 will premier "Dating Naked" tonight. As the title of the show indicates, a man and woman will date 2 different, naked suitors. It's supposed to be in an 'exotic' setting, sans any and all clothing but the birthday suits. Edited "according to network standards", of course.
   A network rep was quoted as saying "We never meant for this to be an exploitative show. This is a family show". Who's family for fuck sakes? Said rep also went on to say "When you actually watch the show, you will get to see that it’s a lot more about connecting with people than it is about the nudity". Yeah, right. How many people will tune in for the 'social' aspect of any connectivity.
   And from what I heard on one of my local radio stations today, the female contestants certainly won't have much difficulty seeing what response they get from their male counterpart. I'm no prude. Far from it. But this is simply exploiting a titillating circumstance in a cheap ratings ploy. Honestly, I don't see how this show can 'stand up' in the long run. And while I freely admit I'm curious, I'm also damn glad we don't get VH-1.

Benny Beat Frank

   It was the "battle of the popes" in the final of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, and Germany beat Argentina 1-0 in extra time.
   It was also the first, and likely the last, time 2 living popes were cheering their respective teams.
   Benny 16:

   Is, of course German, while Frank 1:

   Is Argentinian.
   No one has said if the 2 "duked it out" so to speak watching the match together. But since one is over 80, and the other damn near 80, I wouldn't be surprised if  they decided against staying up late to watch.
   I just wonder if Benny was singing Deutschland über alles after the match.

It Should Be Called "The Running Of The Darwins"

   Yep. It's time for the annual lunacy in Pamplona, Spain known as the running of the bulls. Basically, people line up in the crowded streets of the town and run while several pissed off, fully grown male bovines with sharp horns stampede after them.
   Already, at least 6 people have been gored, and the festival still has days to go. In fact, listening to one of my local radio stations this morning, I heard that the guy who wrote the definitive book an running with the bulls was himself gored!
   Poetic justice?, or did he skip over a chapter of his own book.
   I've diced with death a few times, and had the Grim Reaper's sharpened scythe swish past my head. So I'm not going to put myself in a position where I can be gored by 2 thousand pounds of seething, raging bull. Nor am I going to put myself in a position to be trampled by said mad cows, or members of the herd of prospective Darwin's trying to scamper out of the way.

The Final Is Set

   And it was Argentina over Netherlands 4-2 on penalty kicks, meaning it's Europe against South America in both the championship and 3rd place matches at the World Cup in Brazil. It wasn't a spectacular semi final, either. Both teams were very evenly matched. In fact, a little too evenly, since they couldn't get it done in regulation or extra time.
   I'm expecting Saturday's 3rd place game (which I won't be able to see) to be the more exciting of the 2 remaining matches. Traditionally, the gold medal game is more defensive minded, rather than offensive. And I don't think Argentina is going to get a pants-down spanking like Brazil got at the hands of the Germans either. Brazil, in the other hand, will be out for revenge Saturday, so the Dutch better hope the Germans left a few holes in the Yellow and Blue defence.
   And I'm now wondering which team Brazilian fans will cheer for Sunday. You'd expect it not to be Germany, after the 7-1 shit-kicking they handed out. But there's also a long rivalry with Argentina as well.
   If I was a betting man, which I'm not, I think I'd pick Brazil Saturday, and Germany Sunday. Which will likely be way fucking wrong!
   'Nuff said.

Really? 7-1? WTF!?!

 

   In Portuguese, Belo Horizonte means Beautiful Horizon. Today, a black and red storm cloud descended on that Brazilian city, and provided a huge soccer shocker.
   In sports like hockey and baseball, a 7-1 loss is embarrassing. When you lose 7-1 in football (soccer to North Americans), it's worse than embarrassing. In fact, it's downright shameful. Especially when you're the host country of the 2014 World Cup, and you get beaten in the semi-finals. That's what happened today to powerhouse Brazil, which had been a pre-tournament favorite to win it all. They'll now play for bronze after being pasted by Germany today.
   In football, where a high scoring game could be 4-2 or 3-1, 8 goals is outrageous. Scoring 7 against a team is unheard of. Germany poured in 5 in the first half alone. So, what the fuck happened? Brazil came out strong in the opening minutes, then apparently forgot they were playing a semi-final in the World Cup. Their defence was like Swiss cheese, and the goaltending was, and I'll be generous, not what you'd expect from someone the calibre of a Julio Cesar.
   It's not even so much what the Brazilians did wrong (which was pretty much everything), but what the Germans did right. Their blitzkrieg offence was spot on, and their defence stood up, until the 90th minute when Brazil got a consolation  goal. Small consolation.
   But you have to wonder how badly Brazil's confidence was hurt when their star player, Neymar, suffered a broken vertebrae in the quarterfinal. And the suspension of their captain Thiago Silva after he got 2 yellow cards in the tournament. What role did those play in the Brazilians getting waxed? Simply stated, the Yellow and Blue shit the bed.
   And with the lop-sided win, Germany served further notice that they are very much the team to beat. We'll find out Wednesday if it's Argentina or Netherlands to face them Sunday for the crown.

Sorry

   Yup! Pope Frankie has (like his past predecessor) apologized AGAIN for the sex scandal that continues rocking the church. Not only did he say 'sorry', but actually begged for forgiveness when he met with 6 victims of pedophile priests. Which is fine, as far as it went.
   The problem is, and continues to be, words are not enough. This time, like others, there are no actions to address the situation and make sure it won't happen again. In fact, he made no mention whatsoever on whether bishops and other prelates would be fired for shunting kiddie diddling priests from parish to parish or didn't let cops know about them.
   In fact, one victim asked Frank to remove a cardinal (not the bird) from his post over the way he handled (or mishandled) her case. Apparently, Frankie declined. So, aside from a 'sorry', without an 'it won't happen again', where are we? Pretty much where we were decades ago when the sexual abuse of kids was (allegedly) prevalent.
   Will things change? The short answer, at least from me, is a strong "No". Which really is a shame for the victims who should get some closure in their cases. At least, other than the files the Vatican wants to keep under wraps.

'Lil Kim Is Mad

   Not the rap 'star" lil Kim either. I'm talking about everyone's favorite tinpot megalomaniac dictator, North Korea's Kim Jong Un. Or as I like to call him (like his father before him), Sum Dum Fuk. Seems Kimmy's got his diaper in a knot over a new comedy movie where the plot is to "Kill Kim".
   In fact, he's apparently so miffed that sources say if the U.S doesn't block the release of "The Interview", he calls it an act of war! The plot of this movie (apparently) is that a producer and talk show host land an interview with Kim, and are asked by the CIA to bump him off. Fuk, pardon me, Kim, says if the movie is released, the U.S will face, and this is a direct quote "merciless retaliation".
   Boo fucking hoo Kim, boo fucking hoo. As unlikely as it seems, if the U.S does in fact bow to this idiotic excuse for a human and does block the release, I have an alternative version which would also see a Kim assassinated. That would be the Kardashian version.
   I can dream, can't I?

Get High Forceps

   I damn near had an accident this morning. I was driving around, listening to one of our local radio stations when the morning guys blurted out this little item. And how they managed to keep a straight face is beyond me. I fucking near ended up in the ditch when I heard this.
   Seems an American visiting Germany needed help getting unstuck from something he climbed into. No, it wasn't a culvert, or anything like that. No. Our hero got stuck in a giant, concrete vagina! To the point where 4 firefighters had to literally pull the guy out! Talk about being 'born again'.
   It seems there is a huge sculpture of the female body part on prominent display somewhere in southern Germany, and our guy climbed into it for a picture when he slipped! The sculpture wasn't damaged, but I bet the guy feels like a giant cunt!

We're Never Going To Get Rid Of Them

   So it would seem. Despite, or maybe because of falling ratings for their "reality" TV show, Kim Kartrashian is now going to invade the video game world. I wish I could say I was shitting you, but unfortunately, it's true.
   KK has launched a viral abomination called Kim Kardashian: Hollywood. Oh, my fucking god! It comes out next week on Google play and the app store. The "plot", if you can call it that, is simple. You go shopping for shit to make the celebrity A-list. Which proves it IS a game after all, since KK is (hopefully) going to remain in the C or maybe even D-list.
   Maybe the goal is to eventually get KK back on the mother ship and home to the planet Kardash. If so, please take the rest of the family with you KK. Please!!
