STUPID HEADLINES 123018
This week’s stupid headlines and my
stupider, sometimes sophomoric comments.
____________________________
High schools and colleges reward
students' passion for esports – I’m not one to make moral judgements, but I just think this
is…what? Oh esports…never mind.
Professional golfer and his caddie
arrested for poaching at a tiger reserve – A tiger reserve, is that in the Woods?
Atlanta mayor defends ‘dry’ mac and
cheese Christmas dish after photo causes Twitter uproar – “Twitter?” Internet speak for “I have
no life what-so-ever?”
Troops bringing Trump hats to sign
may violate military rule – So, Trump might have done something nice and not
controversial and one news outlet still gives it a negative spin! Anyone want a soldier to get court martialed
for having a hat signed by the President?
ServPro First Responder Bowl's
cancellation over lightning after only 10 minutes of play – Strangely enough, the “ServPro” motto
is “Like it never even happened!”
UMass Amherst told student to remove
'F— Nazis' sign because it wasn't 'inclusive' – I could think of several reasons why this
sign might not be appropriate in a University, but not including Nazis would be
last on the list.
College football player to forgo
senior season to join seminary - Now that is how a quarterback calls a real Hail Mary!
New York Town Hosts
Toy Gun Exchange for Children – Toy guns for children? That does not
seem to be a fair (or legal) exchange.
‘Sesame Street’ character Grover accused
of cursing, divides Internet – Internet is divided between “I don’t care” and “I don’t give
a shit!”
How to Invest in Marijuana Stocks – Buy Frito-Lay!
Armed standoff lasts 10 hours, then a SWAT
member sang "White Christmas" – “Come
out with your hands up or I’m singing…I mean it, I’ll do it!”
There were NO Feel-good headlines this week!
Since Grover is one of my favorites from Sesame Street, i hope the whole thing is a tempest in a teapot. What am i saying, the majority of the stuff they get mad about on the internet is a temptest in a teapot!
ReplyDeleteWe have become a world of idiots. What more can I say.
ReplyDeleteI had heard about that quickly ended bowl game but wasn't aware of ServPro's motto. Perfect.
ReplyDeleteThe news just gets weirder and weirder. We really don't have news, we have opinions and emotion.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day, Joe. 😎
We live in a world of snowflakes. How cruel to dis-include those tender-hearted Nazis! Hick was watching football today, and there was a penalty for taunting. Gosh! I hope a player's feelings weren't hurt so much that he had to sit out.
ReplyDeleteCrazy stuff, isn't it? Toy gun exchange? Sheesh. However, I did find a feel good story for you: https://www.goodnewsnetwork.org/texas-bus-driver-buys-gifts-for-all-70-students/

ReplyDeleteHere's one:
Happy New Year to you and your family. May it bring you joy and good health.
God bless.
The toy gun exchange...is that anything like a cookie exchange?
