Big Knickers

There's big, then there's Big, then there's really BIG .....

Bridget Jones Big Knickers ... Were Big
Bridget Jones Big Knickers ... Were Big.
 
.... and I am not talking Bridget Jones underwear.

Son Of Boaty

A couple of years ago we had the "Boaty McBoatface" scandal, when the public voted to give that name to a polar exploration ship ....

RRS Sir David Attenborough ... A Very 'Worthy' Name
RRS Sir David Attenborough ... A Very 'Worthy' Name ...

..... but the snotty powers that be refused to accept the democratic vote (how familiar that sounds as Brexit approaches .... or not), and renamed the ship the Sir David Attenborough.

A Dystopian Future

The great Sci-Fi author Isaac Asimov once proposed a future for humanity, set roughly three millennia ahead in time, where humanity had colonised several worlds (this future including a vastly overpopulated earth).

Domed Cities Maybe The Future
Domed Cities Maybe The Future ....

Some different human cultures were envisioned. In some, each individual person never left their habitations, while in others, huge numbers lived in underground domed cities, like hives.

Death Of One Syrian

Raed Fares, was one of the few peaceful pro-democracy activists from the early days of the Syrian uprising still making his voice heard .....

Peaceful Syrian Activist Raed Fares

He had been a vocal critic of both President Bashar al-Assad, and the Islamist militants during the civil war.

No Humour From Old Comrades

Bulgaria's Soviet Army memorial in the centre of the nations capital Sofia, is seen as a memorial to the 'brave soviet soldiers,' who liberated Bulgaria in 1944 by the Russians.

Monument of the Soviet Army Sofia .... Liberation Or Conquest?
Monument of the Soviet Army Sofia .... Liberation Or Conquest?

Whereas Bulgarians don't see it in quite the same light. Many say it celebrates the occupation of the country by the Soviet army in 1944, right up until 199,1 when communism collapsed in Europe.

Love Hurts

Its an interesting fact that we are biologically hard wired to be unable to relive pain from our memories ...

We Don't Actually Re-feel The Pain
Ouch!!! That's Gotta Hurt

By that I don't mean that we forget physically hurting ourselves or even being hurt by others, but that our brain refuses to actually recreate the pain, based on our memories ..... and thank god for that small mercy.

Your Worst Nightmare Writ Large

There are some stories that are so horrific that you can't actually imagine them, except perhaps in the worst of your nightmares or the horror movies.

The Furnace - Too Much For Me To Watch ....

One of my perennial nightmare fears as a boy, was being threatened with immersion in hot lava or liquid metal, or trapped in an oven or furnace.

Girl Gangbangers And Parental Thugs

In a depressing sign of the times, two teenage girls were stabbed in playing fields near the Rivermead Leisure centre in Reading, UK in November 2017 ....

Girls With Knives .... A New Phenomenon
Girls With Knives .... A New Phenomenon

..... In a mass group fight, over a boy who was dating two girls from the different rival schools.

Animal Magic 1

Behemoth

The first part of the post has a single picture .....

Deep Blue - The Largest Great White Shark Ever Filmed And Released
Deep Blue - The Largest Great White Shark Ever Filmed And Released

.... But what a picture.

Tis The Season To Be Silly

UFO's have been making the news again recently .....

Buzzing Earth Flights Has Its Risks

And I don't mean aliens, I mean unidentified flying objects .... UFO's!!

Dick v Dyke

Now don't get me wrong ... if you really think that despite biology to the otherwise, you really are a girl, then perhaps you are in some metaphysical sense.

Sexual Predator ... Danger To Women and Children
Sexual Predator ... Danger To Women and Children

However, until those little biological bits are removed (and even then in some cases) .... I am not sure that its safe to treat you as a woman, just you know, to be on the safe side.

Looking After Their Own

Vested interests and power blocks have a rather dirty habit of looking after their own ...

Some Groups Seem To Look After Their Own
Some Groups Seem To Look After Their Own

The often try to ensure that when of their followers or practitioners commits a crime or offence, they don't actually get the punishment that the rest of us might feel the matter deserves.

Shakespeare's Curse

In 1703, Hannah Twynnoy became Britain's first recorded victim of a tiger.

Hannah Twynnoy ~ Tyger Tyger, Burning Bright
Hannah Twynnoy ~ Tyger Tyger, Burning Bright

Her grave stone, in Malmesbury Abbey has the epitaph:

In bloom of life, She's snatched from hence, She had not room to make defence;
For Tyger fierce, Took life away, And here she lies, In a bed of clay, Until the Resurrection Day.

Wiping Away The Years

Now it's official .....

PC Nonsense Starts To Eat Its Own Tail
PC Nonsense Starts To Eat Its Own Tail

....... PC madness is now eating it's own tail.

The Complicity Of Silence

Another week of tolerance in the lands of the pure ......

Incitement To Murder Nothing New .....

.... and yet more Christians are in fear of their lives from the Muslim mobs.

Red Thames

The river Thames is foaming with much blood this year .....

The River Tiber Foaming With Much Blood .... To Quote Someone.
The River Tiber Foaming With Much Blood .... To Quote Someone.

I don't care what the leftist elite and black activists say it is ....

Banned Things

A strange number of items or activities have been banned from a surprising number of countries ...

Banned Goods In A Surprising Number Of Countries
Banned Goods In A Surprising Number Of Countries ....

For instance both Ovaltine and Marmite were pulled from the shelves in Denmark in 2011 and 2004 respectively, because they needed to be tested as fortified (added minerals and vitamins). Marmite didn't get approval until 2015 and Ovaltine still awaits it and with Brexit, may never do so.

It was also reported in 2014 that the owner of a British food shop in Canada was ordered to stop selling Marmite, Ovaltine and Irn-Bru because they were said to contain illegal additives.

Spectre of the Brocken

When I recently blogged on the urban legend of the 'Slender Man' .....

Slender Man

I thought that would be the end of the matter. Particularly since the origin of the myth was well known and documented.

The Law That Never Was

One day we may all sit back and laugh about, how a whole 12,000 year old culture nearly wiped itself off the map .....

British Values Trampled Underfoot
British Values Trampled Underfoot

.... How in order to meet the rules of a 'law' that never was, we had to pander to often violent and non integrating immigrant groups, who thrived due to a quasi policy, introduced by left wing liberals, and which was called 'multiculturalism'.

Blab Blab Blab

When does a legal agreement and cash payment not count?

When All The Moneys Gone ..... The Deal Is Off.
When All The Moneys Gone ..... The Deal Is Off.

...... Apparently when a woman has spent all the money paid to her.
