What is not to love about British tabloid reporting?

 This was a front page article in this afternoon's USSun.com: 

Retching Spider-Man fans evacuate screening of latest film Brand New Day ‘after audience member lets off horrific fart’

And the copy was just as amazing: 

A DISGUSTED crowd of Spider-Man fans were evacuated from a screening of the superhero’s latest film after an audience member let off a repulsive fart, reports say.

Revolted spectators were forced to flee a cinema during a viewing of Spider-Man: Brand New Day after a filmgoer allegedly let a nasty one rip.

The nauseating fart is said to have sparked an emergency evacuation at the Colombian venue as grossed out fans tried to escape the stinking waft.

Dramatic footage showed swarms of Spidey fans milling in corridors following the stomach-churning bout of extreme flatulence. Some covered their faces in disgust while a performer dressed as the fan-favourite web-slinger tried to entertain the sickened crowd.

Social media users branded the anonymous gas-passer the film’s unexpected “villain”. Staff at the Plaza Bocagrande complex in Cartagena said it remains unclear who the culprit is.

If I tried to make that shit up, I would fall way short. 

Just friggin' brilliant...

‘Speed limit sign ban’ quietly rolled out under new law as 

$450,000 worth of warnings blacked out... 

In Indiana, a new law has banned the use of variable speed limits – as almost half-a-million dollars worth of signs are blacked out. The new legislation came into effect more than four weeks ago, but many are unaware of the change.

A speed limit sign with a blank digital display next to a highway is now the new speed limit? . The signs are now blacked-out using metal covers. Along Interstate 465, which circles Indianapolis, Indiana, there are 62 variable speed limit signs, bought by the state in 2024. The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) spent a total of $446,400 to introduce the signs, they said, would improve safety by controlling traffic speeds based on weather or incidents.

Now, just two years later, they have been outlawed under a new ban on July 1. According to the House Enrolled Act 1200, “the Indiana Department of Transportation may not implement variable speed limits, or use electronic variable speed limit signs”.

Ya see shit like this and your brain starts to bleed. You realize the State just pissed away a half-million bucks, and you wonder why your taxes are as high as they are? Don't hurt yourself thinking too hard...

His 'spirit' screens it's calls...

Their sole purpose in life is to suck the joy - and ease - out of your life...

It is no longer surprising that these Dimwit Dimocrats spend all of their time just fucking with people. They tax you to death, and now they're taking the spoons right out of people's mouths. New Jersey takeout customers must now request single-use plastic items - like utensils, straws and even condiment packets - under a new law that social media users are sounding off against. So, if you get Chinese takeout, they will no longer be able to thrown in a couple of duck sauce packages in with your  pork fried rice. WTF, man...

The “Skip the Stuff” law puts an end to the longstanding practice of eateries automatically loading up to-go bags with extras that many New Jerseyans have come to take for granted.

The law - signed by the absolute jerkoff former Governor, multi-millionaire dipshit Phil Murphy in January - took effect Aug. 1 as the Garden State looks to further reduce plastic waste and reduce the environmental footprint of food purveyors.

The insane things they do for 'selfies'. Yeah, no thanks...

A smiling Alaska fisherman casually shot selfie footage of himself 

feet away from a massive mother grizzly who was devouring salmon near their boat. Carter Brown, who was the guide on a chartered boat on a river in Soldotna when he spotted the bear on the prowl and started recording.

In the viral clip, Brown is seen smirking at the camera as the bear zeroes in and feasts on his catch right behind him, while another bear watches from further out. “She finds a piece of salmon while foraging and eats it right next to my head!” Brown told Storyful. “My clients were mind-blown.”

 

Brown remained abnormally calm during the nail-biting encounter. The veteran fisherman says dramatic moments like this are “a part of life” in this remote stretch of Alaska.

If ya need me, I'll be at the beach here in Florida, thank you. The sharks can't getcha if ya stay on the sand, ya know...

He's stuck in a vicious - no make that a ridiculous - cycle with these towel heads...

 

President Trump announced new talks with Tehran will begin Monday after he called off a “massive” attack on Iran that had been planned this weekend. Appeals from several Gulf state allies - along with Iran itself - led Trump to stand down. Saudi Arabia Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud spoke privately with the president on Saturday.

“I was asked to by Saudi Arabia, by UAE, by Qatar, and by Iran,” he told reporters Sunday aboard Air Force One when asked why he aborted the plan to strike Iran.

So backing off gives the military a chance to reload, okay, but we all know these talks will go no where, because the people he's 'talking' to are lying, coniving scumbags who hate everything about us. One more fruitless round of talks after another, with nothing to be gained. At some point the talking has to stop.

Yeah - I could probably sit there for a while...

And this, too, will all come to pass...

Digging through photo files yesterday I found this one. We were on a train going somewhere north in Italy - might have been to La Spezia - when the train stopped in Carrara. When I looked out my window, I thought it had snowed, but then I realized where we were. These mountain have been mined for Carrara Marble going on two millenia. There was a time when the Catholic Church required that all altars in all churches world-wide be crafted only from marble from Carrara. They musta had a piece of the action, don'tcha think?

Under Florida law, condominium and cooperative buildings that 

are three or more stories tall must undergo a milestone inspection 

by the time they reach 30 years of age — or 25 years if located 

near saltwater. Inspections must be repeated every 10 years.

Building officials reported a total of 54 condominium and cooperative buildings as "unsafe or uninhabitable" those years. Five of them were evacuated, according to the report.

PLANS for a Barbie film sequel are on the brink of collapsing in a row over the stars’ pay. Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, who played Barbie and boyfriend Ken, are said to have demanded megabucks increases.

Reports claim Ryan,say that Gosling, who is now 45, wants $ 20 million to return, because he doesn't really want to do a sequel. He got $ 10 million for the first one. To be fair, I hope he gets it. But, then again, does humanity need another all-pink clusterfuck? Nay, say I.

The Punch Bowls in the Santa Paula Canyon have become a viral destination thanks to social media posts. The natural granite waterfall is relatively smooth, but the rock wall adjacent is anything but. Authorities have repeatedly warned visitors that the smooth granite becomes dangerously slick when wet. Submerged rocks, swift-moving water, steep cliffs, and the area’s rugged terrain have contributed to numerous serious accidents over the years. The remote location also makes rescues especially difficult, with injured hikers and swimmers frequently requiring helicopter evacuations from the narrow canyon.

We called it 'The Subway', but...

 

This is a vintage PCC streetcar operating on the Newark City Subway line in New Jersey. The trolley is depicted crossing Park Street in Newark during the mid-1960s.

These specific cars were used until 2001 before being replaced by the Newark Light Rail system. Less than half the trip from the starting point (near my house) to downtown Newark was actaully underground. The car you see here is travelling through Branch Brook Park.

Barney - we got a jumper on the Brooklyn Bridge...

There are days - like today, it's no different - when you turn on the news, watch the first item, and then your head starts shake uncontrolably, because it seems like every day people just get nuttier and nuttier. Take today, fer instance. According to reports, an 'unhinged', 44-year-old naked man jumped off the top of the Brooklyn Bridge this afternoon in front of shocked onlookers - and miraculously survived, according to cops and wild video.

The nutjob affixed multiple flags at the top of the bridge and “took off clothing” after he scaled the north tower on the Manhattan side of the iconic bridge around 2:30 p.m., police sources said.

“A guy jumped out of the top after getting naked,” an X user wrote while posting video of the jump. Quick-thinking Harbor Unit cops rescued the man from the East River. He was taken to NYC Health+Hospitals Bellevue, where he was listed in stable condition.

What was written on the flags wasn’t immediately clear.
