The Consolidated WTF Thread

[Gusington]

The Wife is friends with the great grandson of the founder of Union Carbide. He can also trace his family tree back to medieval France. We were invited to one of their 'summer houses' about 15 years ago and it is absolutely bonkers the amount of wealth the family has...probably the wealthiest mofo I have ever met. Scary stuff.

I can't get over that I'm looking at Harold Ramis from Stripes there in the middle.

I can't get over that one of the girls is wearing a tie. 

Come to think of it, didn't one of the romantic leads in Stripes look like her?

It's pretty obvious he wasn't intending that to be a serious statement. Leave it to the news, though, to short-stroke it everywhere and freak the hell out over it.

Regardless, it was a stupid thing to say. Particularly now when everything police officers do is being put under a microscope.

"Hey guys, it's OK to make racist statements while officially representing the law of the state and carrying a gun.  I mean, I was only joking!"

Yep, there, all better.

This isn't a media over-reaction, except to those already inclined to negatively view everything from the media in a negative light. 
This was one of the dumbest and most idiotic statements to come from a public servant in the history of ever.

Yes, you should keep that kind of humor in the Station House where it belongs.  C:-)

Why is there only one 'Monopolies Commission'?

[Staggerwing]

Because if there were more they'd have to call them Polypolies Commissions?
