WHAT THE HELL IS THIS NEW HORROR TO HAVE BEFALLEN US???

A cook calls his rice dish rice-jerky (or something... it sounds disgusting, but rice is a 3rd world food best left to people who can’t grab a cheeseburger)...

A woman gets married in a reddish dress.
Hint: SHE PROBABLY WASN’T A BLOODY VIRGIN ANYWAY!!!

And suddenly the twits (that’s the unofficial nasty slang for twitterers) are raving about cultural appropriation.

Stealing something from someone else’s culture.

SERIOUSLY?

My Dutch pal can’t wear a kilt? I can’t wear clogs (not that I’d want to, mind) and none of us can prepare sushi?

What about everyone abusing English?
Or comparing something to a babooshka?
What about drinking whisky and Irish bloody pubs.

Drag the bastards outside and shoot them!

Someone has to stop the madness.

Discuss.

After reading half of that first article I already noticed an exodus of many of my braincells who couldn't take it anymore, so I got alarmed and stopped reading.

Just a friendly piece of advice to anyone who's thinking about reading them.

Whodey, probably best if you don't read them at all. Can't really afford to lose most of your remaining neurons, I think.

Haven't heard from Whodey or Mott for a while.
They must be out on a hunting trip dressed in their Davey Crockett outfits shooting varmints !! 😛
