More youtube clips, now with 1000% the cute fuzzy violence.

Happy Tree Friends game. Looks like an extremely perverse version of lemmings with more violence than the entire painkiller series.

Inflation and World Vision

We’re still being asked for a dollar a day, as are the kids in the states.

Barack Obama introduced this bill in the states:

S.2433 : A bill to require the President to develop and implement a comprehensive strategy to further the United States foreign policy objective of promoting the reduction of global poverty, the elimination of extreme global poverty, and the achievement of the Millennium Development Goal of reducing by one-half the proportion of people worldwide, between 1990 and 2015, who live on less than $1 per day.

Is it just me thinking that this is going to be a certainty not of wealth but of Inflation? Given how weak the US dollar has become, surely those in Africa will have to move onto $2 US a day in order to survive?

Bono’s Manager To ISP’s: “Stop Downloading!” ISP’s to Manager “Fuck off you muppet”

So it’d appear that the manager of the second coming of Jesus Christ (Not a latter day saint) is all up in ire because some people are apparently pirating U2’s music, stopping him from adding extra pillars of gold onto his luxurious mansion as the SMH reports:

The long-time manager of rock band U2 has lashed out at internet providers for resisting calls by the music industry to pull the plug on users who illegally download songs.

At a music industry conference in France, Paul McGuinness said internet service providers (ISPs) and technology companies had “enjoyed a bonanza” in the last few years by accepting fees from illegal downloaders while doing nothing to prevent them from stealing music.

“Their snouts have been at our trough feeding free for too long,” said McGuinness, who has managed U2 for 30 years and is a highly respected industry figure.

Hey, here’s a suggestion! How about you take the hit on the lost revenue because of how much in tax you’re saving due to moving the production arm of the business to Holland!

Hypocritical Twat

Shit frontman of a shit band.

If you actually willingly listen to and like U2, you should be thoroughly ashamed of yourself.
