wtf is with showing me your piece?

packin' heat
packin’ heat

I met some guy for the first time yesterday and in the middle of a mall parking lot he opens the trunk of his car and pulls out a handgun. He takes out the clip and then hands it to another guy who points it at a nearby building and pulls the trigger without even checking to see if there was a round in the chamber. He hands the gun back to the first guy, who then tells a racist joke, gets in his car and leaves.

wtf just happened? Strange afternoon.

check out our jewels, wtf?

First we had the video game, now we’ve got jewelry. That’s right folks – wtf jewelry has arrived courtesy of our friends at DiamondShark. We are one step closer to being certified as legitimate rappers. Now all we need to do is launch a clothing line, mix up a little cologne and maybe some overpriced water or crappy vodka. Ahh, the good life.

WTF Fat Chicks?

if you cant beat them, eat them

Dude WTF fat chicks? You are loud. You are obnoxious. You think you need to have a big personality to match your weight. Pretend all you want with that huge smile that it’s cool. All this talk about real women and real beauty. Ha! Let me tell you there are naturally skinny people. There are naturally beautiful people. Just because your not one of them does not make you any more real. Some are fat, some are skinny, some are ugly, some are hot, some are somewhere in between. Get in where you fit in. It’s not that you are fat that makes you annoying, it is living the overcompensating stereotype of the larger than life fat person that is annoying.

What is the deal with wearing skinny girl outfits anyway? Is it denial? Why the love of spandex and the bare midriff?

Silicone princesses are a whole different beast and just as bad. I will save that rant for another post.

wtf bay bridge driver for august 5

drivers beware
drivers beware

This driving instructor is a perfect example of a wtf bay bridge driver. Over the last 100 feet leading up to the toll booth they changed lanes 5 different times. I’m guessing the blinker must have been broken on their shiny new blue Toyota Camry because I can’t think of any other reason not to use the blinker a single time. Great job continuing your demonstration of how to create traffic with unnecessary and excessive lane changes well beyond the toll booth. I have to give you credit for reinforcing stereotypes about two different types of drivers. This WTF Bay Bridge driver goes to you driver of a blue Camry with CA license plate 5W0B169.

And while on the topic of the Bay Bridge – CalTrans, just because you are building a new span to update the bridge it does not mean let the road surface of the current bridge go to hell. Patch a pothole or two. My car will thank you.

Billy Mays is dead? wtf?

RIP Billy Mays
RIP Billy Mays

We couldn’t care less about about Michael or Farrah or Ed, but Billy Mays? This sucks. Billy Mays was pronounced dead at his home on Sunday morning. We all know Billy from the OxiClean commercials and the Discovery Channel’s “Pitchmen“. He was only 50.

What is truly amazing is that the Shamwow guy, Offer “Vince” Shlomi, is still alive.

wtf is with emily tan on sirius?

e-milyon reasons not to listen
e-milyon reasons not to listen

thanks for attempting to ruin another year of broadcasts from WMC. i know WMC was a few weeks ago, but hearing her babble the intro to DJ Times Shortlist reminded me how annoying she is. even if she didn’t say her name every other sentence, she would still be easy to identify by her inane chatter. and i’m not the only one who feels this way – a quick search of her name pulls up petitions to get Emily Tan pulled from WMC coverage. unfortunately, i guess it didn’t work this year. she still managed to interrupt mixes every five minutes with some of the worst interviews i’ve ever heard. i found myself begging my stereo to make her please shut up. to no avail. she just kept talking, mentioning her name , dropping other people’s names and acting like she was a dance music trendsetter. sirius, she seriously needs to go.

etc. people politics travel

it really is 1984 in the UK, wtf?

not the type of home office one dreams of
not the type of home office one dreams of

Oh, don’t you just love the Orwellian schemes dreamed up by politicians to monitor, track and control the masses? Most of which are easily thwarted by true criminals. Case in point, the UK’s £1.2 billion  e-Borders scheme (that’s $1.78 billion for our American readers).

Under this new immigration scheme, every person leaving the United Kingdom will be forced to provide detailed personal information like their home and email addresses, phone numbers, passport information, credit card information and detailed travel itineraries. In order travel abroad (by any means – including swimming the English Channel),  Britons will have to submit the information a day before departure. Fail to comply? Well then you will be facing a £5,000 fine or possible criminal prosecution for not obeying Big Brother.

Oh wait, it gets better! They plan to hold your information for 10 years. Judging by how well governments (in the US, UK or wherever) keep sensitive networks/information secure, we’ve got nothing to fear about this database being compromised.

As Chris Cuddy points out in an article at Travolution, “…this additional Stalinist hurdle to freedom to travel from the UK is not what ordinary travellers seek when planning a holiday abroad…”

What is worse, with all the money thrown at the misguided scheme, it still has serious holes. Like most things having to do with transportation safety, the effort is more for show than actual safety (the TSA’s 60% failure rate is a good example of all show and no substance). e-Borders is not even online and already problems are surfacing. Have dual passports (something fairly common in the UK)? Darn, they forgot to think about how to handle that. According to the Daily Telegraph, “An airline, under the ‘e-borders’ system, would be denied permission to carry the passenger home. Even if a British passport were presented.”

“But wait!” you say, “that is a minor inconvenience if we are all safer.”

“Not so fast,” I say, “that’s where you are wrong.”

Experts like Frank Gregory, professor of European Security at the University of Southampton, are already warning of holes in the e-Borders system. In his report, he states:

There are two key problems with the e-Borders programme. First, it will not reveal if the person matching the identity documents has created a false identity and, second, ‘watchlist’ scrutiny only works if a suspect person continues to use a ‘flagged’ name.

Unfortunately, the e-Borders ship left port long ago with Big Brother at the helm and Stalin as its navigator. The e-Borders scheme starts this year and will become more and more draconian through March 2014, when it is expected to be fully operational.

wtf is with hurting puppies?

who would do this?
who would do this?

WTF people?! I just saw on the news that someone cut off a puppy’s ear and turned it in to an animal shelter in Hollister. “It appears they probably used scissors without any sort of anesthesia or pain medication,” according to Beth Brookhouser, the director of community outreach with SPCA for Monterey County. There is a $1,000 reward for any info about the person who did it. Personally, I think they should take a pair of scissors and remove the ears of the person who did this. For the full story, check out KTVU. I hope a kind person adopts this puppy and treats him well.

This POS deserves to rot. I’m sure there’s a spot waiting in hell for the people who think he was a helpless victim too.
