Things that really make you go Hmmm!

Gone are the days when parents lambast their kids for watching too much telly or standing too close to the TV – citing reasons like “the TV rays will mess your eyes up” or “too much TV will stunt your growth”. No no! Wafer thin plasma TV’s and flat screen varieties that don’t emit funny rays like the old school type that are too heavy and give burglars hernias during transit are in fashion.

But they too come with their own mortal dangers. Of late, there’s a growing trend in the UK (or maybe not just out here) of flat screen TV’s mounted on walls or on shelving jumping out at little 2 or 3 year old toddlers and killing them instantly. A parent’s worst nightmare is their child falling from the top of the stairs or God forbid, running innocently onto the road when playing. But I doubt there’s folks out there who occasionally remind themselves “I must do something about that telly on the wall – it’s going to fly out of the wall one day and injure someone – let me make a note of that”.

Considering 4 toddlers have died this year by TV’s jumping out of the wall and crushing them, it’s only a matter of time before ‘elf and safety Mafioso insist that TV manufacturers carry warnings on them – “WARNING! This device is capable of killing unsuspecting toddlers – Suitable for children over 6 years of age”.

On other matters, economic hardships bring out the darker no-nonsense side of tax payers who hawkishly watch how their government is using their hard earned “tak money”, as folks from the deep south of the US of A would say.

The British government have decided to outsource their prison services by building a £1 million prison in Nigeria for the exclusive use of Nigerian criminals who are currently esteemed guests being held at Her Majesty’s pleasure for various transgressions of the law of the land.

It’s the sort of gesture that would make financial sense from the point of view of civil servants rattling their brains to figure out how to cut government spending during hard times, and actually, it does make business sense. But hardcore nationalists see it as a waste of their tax dough which might be better spent in the British Isles. Apparently, there’s some objections already being cited that outsourcing the prisoners back to Nigerland is in breach of their human rights…LOL! This human rights thing is sometimes milked like a nonsense.

They’re probably just miffed that they won’t be getting satellite TV back in Nigeria, access to education and health services, and for the married ones, conjugal visits enshrined in the law of the land. You wonder what’s wrong with just putting them on Con Air straight to Lagos airport for a good ol’ fashioned reception by the local constabulary in Lagos.

In other disturbing developments, this thing called science is beginning to send shivers down my spine. Some freaks of scientists at Newcastle university are on a mission to develop artificial sperm from stem cells. Are we getting to the stage as men where our pro-creative functions will cease to be the ace up our sleeve? Granted, for centuries, there’s been moans and groans from hardcore feminishta types who will go as far as saying women can do without men.

What the hell are these punks in Newcastle trying to do to mankind….LOL! I’m not cool with any excuse that will give women an option of procuring sperm from other sources for the purpose of pro-creation….I guess I’m still the good ol’ fashioned male type who believes that ‘er indoors will continue to be the quintessential warm blooded female who will always pick the real deal for a good going over, rather than this self destructive “I don’t need a man” type nonsense…LOL!

Some scientific experiments need to be shut down, period!

…And on things that just don’t make sense…

  1. You go upstairs to tuck your daughter into bed, maybe read her a bedtime story – basically make sure she sleeps well.
  2. You leave your long term partner aka mshikaji downstairs with your best friend (by the way, your best friend’s boyfriend has blacked out on the sofa)
  3. When you come downstairs, you hear that eerily familiar soundtrack of sexual groans in the kitchen
  4. You catch your man with his trousers around his ankles and your best friend has her legs wrapped tightly around him
  5. Your man tells you he was just showing her his “scar” on his thigh (Clearly I’m getting too old when this is what it’s called these days…LOL!)
  6. You freak out in blind anger, grab a kitchen knife and stab the bastard in his back

And then, you kiss and make up right on the steps of the court that has just bailed you for GBH and you then marry the dude…

Sounds like a script from Jerry Springer…right? Maybe this couple need to be on Jerry Springer.

Notwithstanding the fact that she actually found him with his tojjer inside her friend…LOL! How do you actually opt to live with a woman who has stabbed you. This dude is crazy – actually, both of them are crazy.

    Her majesty has enough Nija prisoners to warrant building a prison in Nigeria…they really should just send them back there to serve their sentences. But then again they always make their way back!

    That Tv maneno is very sad yet people still mount them on walls. DIY gone extremely bad I think!

    As for science..whoouuuat! Apana, what’s wrong with the old fashioned way of making babies?

    I join you in protest placards, a fire and all.

    Farmgal…women sympathizers and supporters of the good ol’ fashioned method of conception are most definitely welcome to this here protest about the survival of the male species…LOL!

    I’m organizing a pickett line for sure if it boils down to that and to hell with the batman suits and roof climbing. We’re burning our underwear and boxers….LOL! This artificial sperm thing has to go.

    Building a prison in Nigerland is just a comedy….its like building a travel lodge for them to check out after a few days and organize a new identity and visa back to the UK.

  4. Mo Says:

    Will the Nigerian prisoners (prosecuted under British law) be under HM’s jurisdiction or the Naija govt’s? Who decides on parole and assorted nitty-gritties? This is a recipe for disaster IMO.

    As for your first point, they do say most accidents happen in the home. Poor kiddies.

  5. Tamtam Says:

    Those scientists are freaks. I don’t believe in messing around with nature. God knows what diseases and complications will come with the developed artificial sperm. So clearly there are no ethical issues if it goes ahead, right??????

    As for that couple, I read the article in the paper. They both need a mental health assessment. I think they are out of touch. Talk about pushing the boundaries.

  6. 3TOC Says:

    Those scientists need to get real jobs. Sperm from an embryo- SERIOUSLY!!!!!!!!!When do we stop, enough already.

    Thanks for the info on the tellys. Now I am never upgrading mine(AND I HAVE HAD MINE SINCE FIRST YEAR UNIVERSITY- we were still in the 90s!!!!).Now I have stopped blaming the financial situation, I am calling this a health and safety issue.The only problem is mine which is non-HD, you see half the words and possibly half the faces in the movie!!!!!!Okay maybe I will upgrade.

    That couple- the stabber and the stabbed. I read the story in the metro the other day and decided there is a bit to that story they have refused to tell us. It just does not make sense and it shouldn’t but both of them took the forgive and forget to far. This I guess is a case of BETTER THE DEVIL YOU KNOW.

  7. Darius Stone Says:

    @Mo…

    I think the bigger question is whether the British government expect that level of Nigerian convicts to be a permenent fixture enough to warrant a satellite prison…

    I would suspect that most of those criminals would suggest that Nigerland takes all jurisdiction – Parole then becomes a more straight forward process…LOL!

    @Tamtam and 3 – Those scientists washindwe! Damn freaks…

    @3, them old school telly’s have a purpose of deterring burglaries…they can seriously cause a hernia, but then again, don’t be surprised if a burglar sues you for breach of ‘elf and safety if they get injured burgluring your place…

    I suspect in a couple of years when the analogue signals are permanently switched off (or whenever it is that they do it) – you’ll have to go digital. ‘Elf and safety won’t be an excuse then – and you can start saving up now…

    LOL @watching partial faces and words…

  8. 3TOC Says:

    Analogue who does wot? Sii I have sky. Hala! I keep meaning to get sky plus but I keep telling my friends, when those sky plus guys come to fix the maneno, they will take one look at my telly and be like “mami kuwa serious”, sky plus on this!

  9. Maua Says:

    !st time here, and me like.

    The telly thing, the scientists, the couple, the nigger thing, I just have 2 words. SHINDWE KABISA or is it ASHINDWE KABISA or WASHINDWE KABISA.

  10. Darius Stone Says:

    Welcome to the haven Maua….glad you could visit.

  11. savvy Says:

    Hearing the stabbing story now. Both of them need psychiatrist examination. Are you sure she will not stab you again, I mean if you cheated on her with her best friend, left alone for 10 or so minutes, the future does not look too bright, right?

    Am all for old-fashioned methods of begetting children.

  12. Darius Stone Says:

    @Savvy.

    Join the pickett line – Those scientists washindwe!

    If I were that dude I’d sleep with one eye open.
