This was today's comedy gold. Full of racism but it's fine as it's not against blacks. It's against naive and ignorant Chinese. When my wife was on holiday in Sri Lanka a few years ago (she is fair-skinned, naturally blonde) whilst on a packed bus the local women were fascinated by her, stroking her hair and touching her skin. This is how curiosity of 'the other' often manifests itself all over the world, but not normally in the Western countries.

According to the BBC, the marxist BLM org contacted them saying that they, blm, want the 'A' in bame removed, its just to be known bme. The left-wing bbc have agreed & will promote this. This was on the left-wing bbcnews/victoria thingy prog last week On QT last Thursday (I have really got to stop watching this insipid garbage) it was an under-30 special. The first question asked when we be released from 'state control' because of the virus?? Later, a young black man kept referring himself as a bame man and his friends who were bame. Who calls themselves a bame man for heaven's sake? Maybe I should start referring to myself as Wasp Man and join the X Men.

Now commentators are racist

"lighter skin tone were praised more often for their intelligence and work ethic." Is there any evidence to say the commentators are wrong?

If you like a good acronym, join the nhs, that place eats drinks and sleeps acronyms. I once sat at a meeting where the only meaningful words were Hi my name is, yes, no, and, the, thanks for listening. Wouldn’t be so bad if it wasn’t 15 mins long. I came out and rather sheepishly asked one of the management team what he was talking about and he said, “I’m not 100% sure”. Didn’t feel quite so bad then. At my work meetings we also suffered from a POA (plethora of acronyms) that so it was fun to MUA (make up acronyms) or conclude it was a LOOB (Load Of Old Bollox).

There's a reason why Michelangelo and the like sculpted characters such as David with small todgers. Because having a great big dork equated with beastliness.

Hmm, did this survey also take into account what position on the pitch these players were? Comparing a Jedinak type player in midfield who was an intelligent defender (commentators speak for being in the right place at the right time) would not be the same as describing a Chris Armstrong type who was all about speed (commentators speak for he is fekking quick) and to keep this line of argument totally unbiased from a colour perspective, how about trying to compare Patrick Viera with Ian Wright using their point of view? They also missed the point that in the professional game a player is often described as intelligent (or quick) to make up for the shortcomings in the rest of his game. Sakho for example is described as an intelligent defender who reads the game well. This is a polite way of saying he is quite slow and has to read the game well otherwise he wouldn't be playing at this level. The same argument can be levelled at countless numbers of white centre halfs. In short the whole thing is a nonsense. You can make statistics prove anything if you really want to. All they are doing is trying to criticise every single facet of our day to day life and turn us into a guilt ridden society. But to what end is the question?

Commentators have had to develop a double speak over the years so as not to offend the players. They are not likely to say that Benteke is a skilful player with a great first touch and an eye for a goal.

We had a bloke at work who spoke in acronyms all the time. He got the nickname TLA but never did work out it stood for Three Letter Abbreviation. He was afraid to ask what it meant because he hadn't come across it before.

Sky News piece on Boris appointing his new security adviser. [Link] "The UK faces internal threats from the far right and dissident republicanism," says Sky's Alistair Bunkall. What? Did he miss the recent far left riots and the Islamic terrorist that killed three people last week? The thousands that are being monitored daily. Doesn't fit the agenda, does it.
