It is quite weird to read news about alleged wrongdoers - kidnappers, shooters, molesters, rapists, terrorists, politicians, sportstars, clergy etc.
Allegedly has become cliche - and I am not just alleging. News media also seem confused since the headline is about an alleged shooter but by the time you read the story underneath - the alleged perp (or perpetrator which is not an allegement but a fact) is definitively the wrongdoer and is declared dead. So why allege when simply calling him the shooter would do?
Who's ass are these weak reporters trying to protect? Even in a situation as plain as daylight the commentary is about the alleged gunman. What is this nonsense?
Then there are moronic tales of vigils being held - what are these events? Are they in cahoots with the candles lobby? In a country where power outages are typically restricted to large scale sports events the candle makers have a tough time peddling their crop. Enter the vigils. Any dimwit with no job is available to at a momments notice show up for one at the corner of podunk and dizzy to put on a mourning expression and hold a stupid candle in a cup.
I bet 90% of these candle holders are clueless as to what they are doing. Other than checking out a possible date. Allegedly!
Cool cat the Japanese are Tokyo at dusk My second visit to this land of the rising sun after almost a decade. Back then clearly I was wet behind the ears product manager and likely didn’t pay attention to all (efficient) things Japanese. But today I did and of course continue to be impressed. It is as much the obvious stuff like on time travel that is both clean and comfortable and all that which makes it possible. The impressive landmark and landscapes that these humans have put together despite their cramped (or because of it) surroundings and precarious geological conditions could amaze a novice architect among us. But it’s also the little things that someone had to think about which have a phenomenal impact on day to day lives that make the Japanese stand apart. Below are few random examples- 1. Providing a very fine machined wooden toothpick in every packet of wooden chopsticks. The said chapsticks are simply set on the To Go counter of any food vendor/ convenience store wher...
What the candle-makers need to do is to get creative, so their market is not restricted to vigils. For example, gold candles with wax coating can be smuggled into India to satiate the huge demand for Aurum.
