A Swedish football referee sent a player off for farting on the pitch.
He gave Adam Lindin Ljungkvist two yellow cards, and finally a red, when he broke wind during a match.
The ref called Adam's flatulence "unsportsmanlike" and, according to Adam, thought he was "farting on someone else".

I am more amazed that all electricity are still on. If those sockets get wet, it would be dangerous!

 

[TerraN_EmpirE]

Agreed. Major Screwups here.

GFI receptacles can be above finish floor at 36" and is built for wet areas in bathrooms with sinks. The water ran through (or "river") the main mall corridor while many of the shops doors are closed. The only items getting wet are the small cart shop items with no electrical circuit.

I guess the developer will now claim it as a water attraction.

Just came across this news which demonstrated how a politician falls in a catch 22 trap.

Turkey on course to join EU in year 3000 insists David Cameron

Please, Log in or Register to view URLs content!

Turkey is on course to join the European Union in the year 3000 on its current rate of progress, David Cameron said, as he launched a brutal attack one of his own ministers.

The Prime Minister attacked Penny Mordaunt's claims that Britain had no veto over Turkish accession to the 28-member bloc as "misleading" and "absolutely wrong".

Asked if Ms Mordaunt had been wrong to say Britain would not be able to veto its membership, he replied: "Absolutely wrong. Let me be clear, Britain and every other country in the European Union has a veto on another country joining. That is a fact, and the fact that the Leave campaign are getting things as straightforward as this wrong should call in to question their whole judgment in making the bigger argument about leaving the EU."

On the one hand Cameron is trying everything to swing people in the Leave camp by assuring them of Turkey's entrance to EU is either impossible (a possible veto) or almost impossible (in year 3000). This is a key for his success (failed apparently by now) in his Remain campaign.

What the Leave camp want Cameron to say is in the bold text that I highlighted. Whether that "another country" is Turkey or not is not their concern because either way Cameron will loose. For that purpose, the leave camp made a very good tactical judgment for their cause, albeit a wrong one from Cameron's perspective. But then the referendum was never about thinking from the opposition's perspective.


On the other hand, doing what he did agonized Turkey who immediately rebuffed Cameron, see here

Turkey should not be an issue in EU referendum, says foreign minister

It is also a contradiction to Cameron's own stance of supporting Turkey's EU membership.

Politics is really a nasty game. Cameron just fall as another victim. Remind us the old catch-22 question to husband from the wife "save me or your mother first from drowning in the water"

containing this particularly funny part:

Ironically, the petition was started by leave activist William Oliver Healey in May, when polls suggested remain would win. Parliament must consider all petitions that reach a threshold of 100,000 votes for a debate.

LOL!
