Celebrities In Justice?

Schadenfreude is a secret pleasure, usually best kept to ourselves, but guiltily felt by all of us now and then. My particular vice in this area, are the rewards that reality TV bestows upon the feckless, stupid, semi-literate, and most of all, totally talentless, individuals who seem to populate their shows.

Reality TV Throws Up "Talent" Like This ....

So when one of the talentless gets into financial trouble (usually based upon their assumption that the money will continue to pour in), I always secretly hug myself in glee, as they head down the toilet of life again, and end up stacking shelves, or unemployed on a council estate somewhere.

Road Gits

In a moment of schadenfreude that most of us who have been doused by car or van driver, driving into the puddle next to you, will really enjoy, a van driver in the Canadian city of Ottawa has been sacked after he was filmed repeatedly dousing pedestrians.

T.W.A.T In A Van

A rear facing dash-cam recorded a 45 second clip of the van driver veering into the kerb on a rainy day, to drench pedestrians at least three times. The video of the anti-social behaviour went viral, and was viewed over 750,000 times.

Brazil Nuts

Apart from the Subbuteo world cup dioramas there was of course one other major story ..... so epic indeed that it sent shock-waves around the world, well the football world.

It was of course the utter annihilation of the Brazil football team beneath the juggernaut of 'Die Mannschaft' of the united Germany. The shock-waves of the totality of the defeat, 7 - 1 at home, will no doubt ripple down the next few years, but I am not primarily interested in that, nor the myriad of records that were broken on the night.

No, I was interested in any of that, but the fact that I unexpectedly felt a large degree of Schadenfreude as the goals piled in .... I didn't know that I cared LOL. But the part of this story that really tickled my funny bone was the Internet Memes that swept across globe on social media on the night. I have collected a few, and re-publish them for posterity, and those like me, who are largely oblivious of Tweets and Facebook etc.

 

No commentary for these is required ....... the whole night in seven pictures.
