As Victor Meldrew often famously said, I don’t believe it!
Sadly, however, I must, because there are a helluva lot of sad whiney grumpy bints out there.

Not being sexist, because there are many male whiney grumpy gits too, but these two wimmin are about as pathetic as it gets.
pppppppppppppppppppppppp
“A kiss he gives to her without her consent, while she’s asleep, which cannot possibly be true love if only one person knows it’s happening.
“Haven’t we already agreed that consent in early Disney movies is a major issue? That teaching kids that kissing, when it hasn’t been established if both parties are willing to engage, is not OK?” they continued.
I think with this one , you deserve a Headline of the Year’ award.
I read the Western Jornal story and it makes me wonder, did these women have to fail an IQ test to get their jobs?
But let’s examine what Boris did and did not say when he was reciting from The Road to Mandalay.
He had got through the line: “The temple bells they say/ Come you back you English soldier.”
Was that a call for a return to colonial rule?
Far from it!
As the Guardian helpfully tells us –
Kipling’s poem captures the nostalgia of a retired serviceman looking back on his colonial service and a Burmese girl he kissed.
Aaah, ‘it’s in his kiss,’ as a 1960s song had it!
==
Maugh Bo Bo, a Burmese doctoral student…said offence could be taken because the poem talks about kissing a girl, something that would be frowned on in the context of a temple.
But the kiss in the poem did NOT occur in a temple, did it?
Are the Burmese as uptight about a decent heterosexual snog as some other people…?
We never did get an answer to that, did we? Did our Foreign Office that’s always busy-bodying about and telling people how much the British Government cares about ‘human rights’ actually support the Saudis in that UN vote?
If they won;t answer that simple question, then Our Man in Rangoon, or whatever they call it now, should keep quiet and let Boris quote Kipling as much as he likes.
I missed this story but it’s so pathetic that, even after a few weeks, as an example of kill-joy censorship in Indonesia, it merits a mention.
Amawana.comreported how somecigarette advertising billboards considered “obscene…” immediately received criticism from netizens, including other parties such as the MUI.
oo
oo
AHA!
It’s the MUI, the self-styled ‘scholars’ of the Indonesian Ulema Council. That state-subsidised sticky-beak outfit isn’t ALWAYS on the wrong side of arguments here, but to be fair, their narrow minds more often than not end up embarrassing normal Indonesians, fellow-Muslims as well as others.
Examples?
A fatwa against yoga!
And this outrageous drivel on female circumcision!
—-
Ma’aruf Amin
…Ma’aruf Amin, senior spokesman for the Indonesian Ulema Council had this to say on the subject -…it is an”advisable practice on moral grounds…he rejects any attempt to declare this practice illegal or contrary to the principles. It comes under the sphere of “human rights,” said the Islamist leader, and is “guaranteed by the Constitution.” Remove This Horrendous ‘Human Right’ from British Society
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
But let’s have a look at what’s more recently got the uptights upset!
—————————–
Iklan Rokok Dianggap Mesum – ‘Cigarette Ad Perceived As Salacious!’
It seems the ‘salacious’ ads, which appeared in several cities such as Cirebon, Bandung and Jakarta, displayed a man embracing a woman’s waist, and the woman embracing the shoulder of the man, in a pose as if to be kissed.
OMG!
An orgiastic scene indeed. Whatever next?
Glimpses of cleavage on tv? Ya gotta be kidding! The state censors here ensure that not even Nigel Farage’s eagle eye could spot a bit of boob on the box.
But it’s not just the lascivious posturing of this shamelessly lustful couple that copped crack-pot criticism!
In the advertisement, there were also written the words – “Mula mula malu-malu, lama lama mau”.
“Shying away at first, but at length, eager!”
Well, hell, grossly obscene!
Tobacco as aphrodisiac?
Is it really possible that a kiss can scare the pants off these pathetic prudes? Do they really reckon that a kiss inevitably ends up in a tumultuous bout of fornication?
These ads are considered to urge people not only to smoke, but also do nasty things as highlighted in the message that is displayed visually.
Damn right!
NASTY!
Must be stomped before every passer-by goes at it like rabbits in heat!

WOTTA LOADA HOGWASH!
But sure enough, in response, the PT HM Sampoerna Tbk finally took down the billboard which was in various cities since 6 January.
And the company’s head of regulatory affairs, Elvira Lianita, showed serious reluctance to reveal which advertising agency it was which made these ads….
Elvira said this was for strategic business reasons, but no matter – given the way sectarian thug gangs run amok, it’s probably safer for them not to be identified.
