The world is truly falling to ****.

Zhanteimi 07-21-2016 02:57 PM

It always has been, but I think (drawing an evolutionary parallel) we're in a punctuated equilibrium phase right now.

Lawsuit!!!!

Just glad that he is still alive.

Zhanteimi 07-21-2016 08:32 PM

^Unlike the other guy who was executed for having a tail light out.

Bob Geldof is apparently still relevant

OccultHawk 07-21-2016 10:23 PM

He's a sincere old c-nt I'd say. I think he made a good Pink. Especially when he cut his nipple.

I will wait for more details but if this turns out to be what I suspect it is I will be speechless

A reporter got caught playing Pokémon Go during a State Department briefing on the Islamic State

Xurtio 07-22-2016 02:38 PM

Of course Pogo will be blamed but if it wasn't that it would have been another app. Lucky they didn't get caught using grindr

No the reporter admits as much. It was Pokemon Go. I'm just amused the guy giving the briefing immediately knew what was up. That man has children.

Don't go to Europe until at least the end of this year.

Frownland 07-22-2016 03:31 PM

Nah. I wanna be on the news.

My advice would be to not visit Earth until the human issue is dealt with.

Zhanteimi 07-22-2016 03:33 PM

We go hard on planet Earth.

Chula Vista 07-22-2016 03:43 PM

We're going to make Earth great again!

Zhanteimi 07-22-2016 03:47 PM

^Dude, you're obsessed with American politics. Go to Europe and have a holiday or something.

I'd rather sleep on your couch. You asking?

I've been to both Taiwan and China countless times. A side trip to Japan is needed at this point.

My couch isn't very comfortable. How about futon?

I don't know. I'm not his intern. (More's the pity!)

Mordwyr lives in Japan. I think he just asked you to bed.

Shocking video shows teen skater smash window of $250k McLaren supercar in Denver | Daily Mail Online

Justthefacts 07-23-2016 04:29 AM

I would've done the same thing, honestly. Entitled pricks with their kick ass sports cars.

Zhanteimi 07-23-2016 06:12 AM

Entitled? What if he worked hard and paid for the car? Does he deserve to have it wrecked just because you're envious?

Cuthbert 07-23-2016 06:49 AM

You can't really see the incident from the video. If he nearly hit the kid then fuck him and his car tbh.

Iggy Azalea Shares Racy Post-Break-Up Selfie in Her Undies

I still can't process the mentality of those who say this qualifies as news.

People click on it and improve ad revenue for the news sites. Also, people being outraged about it increases the revenue three times over so...pretty well thought out news story from a business perspective.

JGuy Grungeman 07-23-2016 09:22 AM

I'd rather call it click-bait for girls in their early 20's. Honestly, I find the Enquirer more newsworthy.

Frownland 07-23-2016 10:12 AM

Is that why you clicked on it then?

Iggy Azalea's ass is definitely news to me.

This is the third violent attack on German civilians in ten days.

I think we should address German civilian on German civilian violence before we worry about other people getting in on the fun.
