- A man
has to put his foot down when his lady steps out of line. Even if that time
comes just moments after that man and his lady have become husband and wife, it’s
vital to make sure the woman knows what’s expected of her - especially if what
you expect of her is TO PUT DOWN THE DAMN IPHONE AND PAY ATTENTION TO ME! That
very reasonable demand did not go over well for groom in Saudi Arabia who
became irate when, as he and his new bride retired to a hotel room following
the ceremony, his bride refused to put down her cell phone and pay attention to
him. It does seem like a reasonable request given that it’s one of the biggest
moments of your life, but there is the chance that the woman was telling the
truth when she said she wanted to respond to her friends’ texts and other
messages congratulating them on their wedding. The impatient groom, perhaps
looking for a little love and affection on his wedding night, became irate when
his lady rebuffed his advances. According to relatives, the groom asked her to
delay the messages, but she refused and became angry, He then made a critical
error by asking if her friends were more important than he was, to which she tersely
replied that they were. In a Ron Burgundy-worthy development, things escalated
quickly and next thing you know, the groom is demanding a divorce. Something
called a reconciliation committee agreed to take the case to see whether the
husband and wife could resolve their differences, but the groom was intent on
setting fire to that bridge and picked divorce over being a rational,
thoughtful adult with a shred of maturity……..
- One
of the chief rules of professional sports is that you do not f*ck with another
athlete’s money. Even if one athlete thinks a peer is being greedy or out of
line with his contract demands or is hurting the team by holding out for a new
deal, the appropriate response is to not comment on the situation publicly because
every player expects the same treatment if they find themselves in a similar
spot. Seattle Seahawks defensive end Michael Bennett tends to look at life from
a different point of view and in Mikey B’s world, another man’s contract
demands are not off limits. This is, after all, a guy who has opined in the
past about Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill getting a $70 million
contract while being the definition of mediocre. So when Bennett, who is
unhappy with his current contract, sees Philadelphia Eagles signal caller Sam
Bradford b*tch about his team drafting a new quarterback to challenge him,
Bennett has a problem. He sees a wildly overrated quarterback who is due a lot
of money on his contract complaining about having to compete for his job. “Any
American wants to get paid more at their job. I don't think there's anybody
that goes to work and says: 'Hey, I'm happy with how much I'm getting paid, and
I love it. Don't give me any more money,’” Bennett said. “I listened to Sam
Bradford again. I just almost threw up," Bennett said. "I can't
believe Sam Bradford is complaining about making $40 million in the next two
years, and because he actually has to compete for a position. This guy, this
guy right here definitely sets a bad tone of what a player should be. Bennett
said he thought about holding out last offseason because he wanted more than
what he was getting from the four-year, $28.5 million deal that he signed
during the 2014 offseason, but said his wife convinced him not to. He clearly
feels Bradford should do the same………..
- A
lot of people hate skinny jeans - mostly because they’re chunky, flabby people
who shouldn’t be wearing them and they’re bitter at those who can. Most of
those folks lack the means or authority to stop anyone around them from wearing
tight-fitting denim, but the powers that be in the New Hanover County school system
are the exception to this rule. District officials are considering changes to
the school system’s dress code policy and one issue at the forefront is
possibly banning students from wearing leggings, skinny jeans, and any other excessively
tight fitting pants unless they are covered by a top or dress. The possible
skinny pants ban has students raging on social media because they have a real
beef with the notion that their top or dress must cover their butt entirely if
they wear pants deemed too tight by the new dress code. Dresses, skirts, skorts
and other similar clothing garments must meet the same criteria and any student
whose wardrobe choices violate the policy will be forced to change. Rebels -
i.e. the cool kids - who continue to break the dress code could be subject to an
out-of-school suspension. “This method of collecting feedback may continue for
gathering student input on future new/revised policies that directly impact
students,” NHC Schools spokeswoman Heather Miller said of the battle for
wardrobe censorship. Fanning the flames of this mess are comments from school
board member Jeannette Nichols, who previously said some of the "bigger
girls" were getting bullied because of their tight jeans. In other
words, kids are being immature kids and making fun of someone for how they look
and you think a dress code change will fix that? News flash, J., if you make
everyone wear muumuus, kids are simply going to find some other way to make fun
of those they deem to be lesser than or different………
- It doesn’t
take much to get Star Wars fanboys to geek out. Merely releasing a grainy,
indecipherable photo that may or may not be from a sound stage where a
10-second scene of the next movie in the franchise is shooting is enough to send
them into a frothing panic in the basement of their mom’s house where they live
and hang out with their fellow dork-tastic friends, so hinting that iconic
villain Darth Vader is set to appear in the forthcoming “Star Wars: Rogue One” movie is like a
mix of heroin, Ecstasy and crack for these dweebs. The possible return of Vader
is being debated in nerd-o-spheres everywhere after a picture book of the film
showed images of the Sith lord. The 164-page tome, entitled “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story - The Official
Visual Story Guide.” is not due for release until January, but that
merely provides more time to debate the issue and theorize about what it means.
What we do know is that “Rogue One: A
Star Wars Story” features British actress Felicity Jones, who received
an Oscar nomination earlier for her performance in “The Theory Of Everything,” alongside Mads
Mikkelsen, Forest Whitaker and Ben Mendelsohn. The film itself is due out
in December under the leadership of director Gareth Edwards. It is set in the time period just before the events of “A New
Hope” and is the first in a series of spin-off titles set in the Star Wars
universe. Ready, set and dissect ad
nauseum, nerds…………
