Mommy Of The Year

Sent to me by Reader Mike L., this lovely example of responsible parenting:

Mom arrested for giving Jell-O shots to kids at elementary school Christmas party

Much as I would have laughed myself sick at watching a roomful of rug rats falling all over the place and getting into fistfights over who gets the last piece of cake, this is just plain irresponsible. I mean, what made her think that this would be a good idea?

Giving your own kids booze:  just idiotic.  Giving other people’s kids booze:  slapworthy (by the parents of each kid, consecutively).

My biggest problem, though, is what actual punishment should be meted out to Mommie Dearest.

They’ll Be Firing Them For Rape, Next

Some Brit politician has been canned for speaking his mind.

Andrew Gwynne is under investigation by the parliamentary authorities after he wrote in the group that he hoped a 72-year-old pensioner would soon be dead.

Who hasn’t wished that some old fart would croak soon?  Hell, I’m at that age myself, and I’ve thought that same thing many, many times about someone in my peer group.

Sadly, our Andrew didn’t actually speak, per se, but sent it to a friend on WhatsApp, so of course it was leaked.

Personally, I think it’s one of the funniest exchanges I’ve seen all month:

I don’t know who “Dave” is, but that’s fucking hilarious right there.

Even funnier:

Gwynne also joked about a local cycling campaigner being “mown down”, suggested that a local vicar be “burned on a bonfire” and made derogatory comments about Angela Rayner and Diane Abbott.

Were he not one of Satan’s minions (i.e. a Labour Party MP) I’d vote for him, just for telling the truth.  I mean, who doesn’t get the giggles at the thought of a mown-down cyclist?  Or a vicar on a bonfire?

And not even the pecksniffy Britcops could find fault with his statements — no doubt because they were crying with helpless laughter and couldn’t finish reading them, like I was.

Of course, he’s in deep doo-doo with the Party apparatchiks, but who cares about that?

My hero:

…coming soon to a meme near you.


By the way:  the title of this post is a riff on something written in George MacDonald Fraser’s Flashman.  No slight was ever intended towards rape victims, nor indeed towards rapists either.

Actually, Gwynne could easily be fired for rape, because he’s not a Muslim.
