Layers And Layers

Morons & Idiots

It should have been a speed bump, but there was no grammar involved.  See if you can spot the absolute howler in the caption to the pic below, as it appeared in the Daily Mail:

Hint:  there’s photographic proof of what the guy actually wrote on his armband, you fucking morons, yet you not only misread it, but gave it a completely different meaning.

Where did I put my flamethrower?

I should point out that Breitbart got it right:

English Premier League Star Who Wrote ‘I Love Jesus’ on LGBTQ Armband Breaks Silence

Clearly, they actually looked at the pic before writing the headline… unlike the Mail  idiots.

Shocker

Gummint

Oh, this is rich:

A paltry 6% of the federal workforce “report in-person on a full-time basis” while almost one-third of federal workers are remote on a full-time basis, in a sharp turn-around from the pre-pandemic era in which only 3% teleworked daily.

Of course, Elon Musk (the man who is aiming to fix this kind of shit) has the truth of it:

If you exclude security guards & maintenance personnel [i.e. the folks who have to be there — K.], the number of government workers who show up in person and do 40 hours of work a week is closer to 1%!

Furthermore:

Sen. Joni Ernst’s audits are finding as many as 23[%] to 68[%] of teleworking employees for some agencies are boosting their salaries by receiving incorrect locality pay.  Some employees live more than 2,000 miles away from their office and one “temporary” teleworker collected higher locality pay for nearly a decade.

Yup;  nothing like claiming D.C. cost-of-living support whilst living in W. Virginia, is there?  Or, as Harris Rigby puts it:

Get paid for big city expenses, live in the cheap suburbs, pocket the difference.

My thoughts on the above:

Hey, it’s not firing squads. (Which would have been my solution.)

Bad Taste

Men & Women

Worst headline of the year:

FFS, was this “poll” even necessary?  I mean, I’m as lewd as the next guy, and a lot more lewd than most, and even I was offended by it.

And no, there’s no link.  You want to find it, go look for yourself at the Daily Mail.

Medical Advice

Health, Men & Women

Via Insty:

The article talks about “90 seconds” in terms of its duration, but who the hell can keep going for that long?  We’re not animals, you know.

So ladies:  the next time the old man asks for a little quickie, he’s really doing it for your own good.  Even better if it’s cowgirl.

Blown Away

Drive Time

You have to know that if you can impress Iain Tyrell with a 1970s-era car, you’ve achieved something.  As always with Mr. Tyrell, his history and styling/engineering overviews alone are worth the price of admission.  Go ahead and watch the video now.

And if after seeing Iain’s reaction to driving it you want to look at the Pantera for yourself, feel free to browse the market…

I’ve always loved them, but I have to say that I doubt whether I’d be able to fit inside one.  Man, they are tiny.

But still… who cares about stuff like personal comfort when you’re driving pure power and self-indulgence?
