Pure class.

Telling everybody about this band of guys called The Apostles... How he was listening to them way before they went mainstream.
It is usually futile to try to talk facts and analysis to people who are enjoying a sense of moral superiority in their ignorance.

His supposed final performance at Golgotha was quite something, but shame about how they did that shitty comeback tour afterwards.

Police in Grand Rapids, Michigan, handcuffed an 11-year-old girl and held her at gunpoint after she walked out of her house during a search for a stabbing suspect.

Honestie Hodges told WOOD-TV she exited the back door of her home to go to the store on Dec. 6 when officers confronted her. Her mom, Whitney Hodges, who witnessed the confrontation, said police ordered Honestie to raise her hands and walk backward. Then officers handcuffed the girl, patted her down and put her in the back of a police car, Hodges said.

“It made me feel scared and it made me feel like I did something wrong,” Honestie told the TV station.

“The whole time they are telling her to come down, I’m telling them, ‘She’s 11 years old. That’s my daughter. Don’t cuff her,’” Hodges said of the officers.

Honestie, who is black, said she sat in the back of the cruiser banging on the windows and screaming to her mom, “Please don’t let them take me.”

Cop: “I thought she was a suspect.”
Boss: “Honestly?!?!?”
Cop: “Yes, Honestie. Who else would I be talking about.”
Boss: “You’re joking, surely?”
Cop: “Who is Shirley? The mum?”






Sorry.

The diplomatic equivalent of throwing your toys out of the pram. Confirmation his emotional maturity is at the same level as his vocabulary.

I don't know which part of that sorry is the saddest.

If a police officer knocks on your door, what is the appropriate response in murica?

Anyone heard of Logan Paul?

Adored by millions on YouTube, Vine and Instagram for his videos and antics.

Roughly translated it means that he acts like a total cunt on camera and somehow makes millions from it.

In one of his recent offerings, he takes some bros and a video camera into a forest in Japan which is a well-known area for suicides. He then finds a lifeless body hanging in a tree and proceeds to film it, make jokes about it and post the video on YouTube.

Then follows the backlash.

Following the backlash came the expected 'heartfelt' apology and promise of not doing anything like it again.

There has been talk of his revenue stream being affected, but give it a few days for things to calm down and I'm sure Mr Paul's bank balance will still be looking healthy.

This kinda thing seems to follow a trend with social media stars. They Tweet/vlog/post etc, offensive/racist/sexist etc crap, get called out for it, post an apology and life goes on.

Back in the real world, people have lost their jobs as a result of ill-judged comments and actions, including comments made on social media. I don't get why things seem to be so different for certain folk on social media??

How do these cretins make a living by doing nothing in a virtual world that serves as a platform for nonsense? Wanker should sort himself out and learn a fucking trade.

Why would you though. You can just film yourself being a dickhead every day and make a fucking mint.

What a legacy. Fuck them. The social media career path may actually end up being of less worth to the planet than speculative financial sector practices. It's a race to the bottom, live streamed.

I’m not suggesting it’s good for the world by any means, but you can see why you might not have any incentive to learn a trade, work much harder, and probably not earn anywhere near as much.

Bear in mind I have no idea who this Ron Paul guy is I’m just talking about YouTube celebs in general.

At one time, I thought that my youngest boy was pissing his teenage years away by playing computer games all night, every night to the detriment of his school work, mental health etc.

I was wrong.

He was actually pissing away his teenage years WATCHING OTHER PEOPLE play computer games all night, every night to the detriment of his school work, mental health etc.

I have to confess that I am poorly equipped to deal with such fuckwittedness.
