Upper Class Twits
I saw Boris Johnson at the theatre once. Stephen Fry was there too. Quite the exciting night! Anyway, his look and demeanor are an amazing affectation. He does genuinely ride his bike, wearing his ill-fitting suits and his too-small backpack. It's sort of quaint, except for the fact that he's an asshole.
Trash
Indeed.
(Some) people in South Philly still go nuclear if you even suggest it. It's nuts. Recognize that if they aren't willing to move their cars during the work day (for most people) it means that they don't need those cars to commute. They just like the almost free long term car storage they have access to.
Residents angry about having to move their cars caused city officials to shut down citywide street sweeping, according Democratic mayoral nominee Jim Kenney.
“I went through this with [former Councilman] Frank DiCicco as a South Philadelphia resident. He had a very intense street sweeping program. It was only once a week but he took so much grief for it, he stopped the program by fear of not being reelected,” Kenney said in a recent interview with Philly.com. “I can’t see why everybody should suffer as a result of the selfishness of some people that just don’t want to move their cars for a couple hours one day a week.”

You Have One (Important) Job
Well I guess they should just be bailed out again.
The great casino is much more fun than processing silly disability allowance payments.
About 600,000 payments due to customers of Royal Bank of Scotland have failed to turn up in accounts in the latest technology failure to hit a UK bank.
Payments that the bank initially described as missing included tax credits and disability living allowance.

The Kids Today
Total slackers who can't save for their retirement, save for a downpayment, and pay for college/pay off their student loans just like I did in the era when we all pulled ourselves up by our bootstraps with no help from anyone at all nosiree.
"Keep in mind that three out of four college students today are in public universities, but they’re paying far more than they did a generation ago," Warren said. "Adjusted for inflation, somebody going to college today to a state university, is paying about 300 percent of what her mom or dad did just 30 years ago."
They Really Get In The Way Of The Cocaine Parties And Orgies
It's true that I don't have children because of TEH HEDONISM.
Anyway, make up your minds. Having children is THE GREATEST THING EVER or it's a SELFLESS ACT THAT SELFISH NON-BREEDERS DON'T DO BECAUSE THEY'RE SELFISHLY SELFISH.
You can't have both. And you don't have to, because who cares? Do what you want. Have them, don't have them, who gives a shit?
The obsession with the fertility decisions of other people is so weird. Everybody should have kids, except poor women who should be chaste and childless. Poor men can do what they want, and we feel for their feefees when they're forced to pay child support because it's a great injustice, just those bitches having their babbies so they can steal the money from the menz.

Nothing To See Here
And why isn't NASA working on important things, like how to download my immortal soul into a robot, or creating a pleasure colony on Jupiter?
The world’s largest underground aquifers – a source of fresh water for hundreds of millions of people — are being depleted at alarming rates, according to new NASA satellite data that provides the most detailed picture yet of vital water reserves hidden under the Earth’s surface.

Sorry for all that stress and the whole thinking your life was ruined thing. Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
In late May, about 35 technology employees at Disney/ABC Television in New York and Burbank, Calif., received jarring news. Managers told them that they would all be laid off, and that during their final weeks they would have to train immigrants brought in by an outsourcing company to do their jobs.
The training began, but after a few days it was suspended with no explanation. In New York, the immigrants suddenly stopped coming to the offices. Then on June 11, managers summoned the Disney employees with different news: Their layoffs had been canceled.
It's Always Two Years Away
The "American Dream" is always 4 FU's away. Amost exactly a year ago:
And now:
Heckuva job, Chris Christie. A megamall that will likely never open (and will eat it soon after if it does) is your grandest legacy.
But the project’s developers and state officials say the long-stalled rebirth of the shopping and entertainment attraction remains on target for a fall 2016 opening – and work will be visible at the site soon.
And now:
Part of the financing for an unfinished megamall in East Rutherford took another step forward on Wednesday, as a state finance board approved the borough's plan to sell up to $675 million in bonds for American Dream Meadowlands.
An official with the developer of the project, meanwhile, said the entire complex is expected to open in the summer of 2017.

Trans Fats
This is good. A lot of "healthy alternatives" that were pushed on us as alternatives to the disgusting stuff that was a bit more natural (margarine over butter) were probably killing us.
Austin's Traffic Problems Will Be Solved!
Haha just kidding.
Just a few more lanes...That's all we need...
Interstate 35 through the middle of Austin would get an additional free lane in each direction, including adding a lane to each side of the upper decks, as well a toll lane on both sides as part of the Texas Department of Transportation’s $4.3 billion, 10-year plan for the expressway as it passes through three Central Texas counties.
That plan in its revised form, to be unveiled Monday in a speech by state Sen. Kirk Watson to Austin business leaders, includes depressing I-35 about 25 feet below the frontage road level throughout its downtown Austin stretch, from south of Cesar Chavez Street to north of 15th Street.
