Burger King Wants To Join Forces With McDonalds To Create The McWhopper

Leave a reply
They have been rivals for decades but Burger King has decided to offer an olive branch to McDonald's - for one day only. The company is proposing the chains "settle the beef" by combining their best-known burgers – the Whopper and the Big Mac – into the McWhopper, with the two recipes separated by a burger bun. It would be sold for just 24 hours at a pop-up restaurant in Atlanta, which is equidistant between their respective headquarters in Chicago and Miami. Even staff uniforms and the takeaway bags would be a compromise – half in McDonald's red, and the other in Burger King brown. Burger King extended its invitation of friendship in full-page adverts taken out in The New York Times and The Chicago Tribune. It wants the "McWhopper" experiment to take place on 21 September, which has been declared by the UN as an International Day of Peace, with any proceeds donated to charity. However, customers wouldn't pay for their McWhopper with cash. Instead, they would be asked to sign a tray mat declaring who they will make peace with. In a proposal to McDonald's, Burger King said: "All these ingredients come together to build the burger some said would never happen. Some say the same thing about world peace. "Let's prove them wrong on Peace Day. Everything in our proposal is up for discussion, from the name right through to the packaging. "The only thing we can't change is the date, so let's talk soon." McDonald's is yet to comment on their rival's bold proposal.

Blasphemy, pure blasphemy. There is no chance in hell that McDonalds is the brain child of this abomination. Its those desperate assholes at Burger King driving this idea. Last year they had to merge with Tim Hortons pretty much just to pay utilities probably while McDonalds just grows its army. Like literally i think McDonalds has enough resources to over take a country at this point. Burger King saying they’re extending an olive branch to MickyD’s is a pure sad joke. McDonalds should just double down and create a whooper for a day and just push it on National Hate Day.

Now I don’t actually hate Burger King, but facts are facts. Burger King is just living past its prime. The heyday of the King has gone the way of the dodo bird. Their peak was when they released those Pokemon Gold Card. To this day, that was probably the single greatest Fast Food Promotional toy item history. You can’t deny that, but that was in like 1999. Its 2015. When the whole Burger King King commercials came out i could see a slow rise in business and chicken fries is a nice novelty thing but novelties don’t last. McDonalds has sausage, egg, and cheese biscuits. That right there is a generational talent. Egg McMuffin? Thats a dark horse championship contender. Sausage egg and cheese McGriddle combo breakfast with a hash brown and Orange Juice? Dynasty Reign. And thats just the breakfast menu that operates from 5 to 10:30 am. While Burger Kings struggling to make it to the post season McDonalds already won 3 championships before lunch hours. I don’t hate BK for trying everything they got in the tank to be relevant, but pretending like they’re the ones thats offering to help McDonalds by “joining forces” is just sad. Its Mayweather/ Pacquiao all over again. We wanted that fight like 10 years ago when everyone was in their prime.

P.s- McDonalds Agrees with me and thinks this whole idea is a joke and is laughing at the Kings face.

Scientific Data Proves Eminem’s song Loose Yourself Is The Most Popular Song Pre 2005

Leave a reply

Whatever you think of its privacy policies, one of the best things about Spotify is that it catalogs the number of times each song in its collection is played. Polygraph’s Matt Daniels took advantage of this to determine, via Spotify plays, which popular songs released between 1950 and 2005 truly stood the test of time. Surprisingly, the song from the pre-2005 era played in the heaviest rotation on Spotify was Eminem’s Oscar-winning anthem “Lose Yourself,” with over 59 million plays. Rounding out the top five were The Killers’ “Mr. Brightside,” Linkin Park’s “Numb,” Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin'” and Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit.” Farther down the list there are even more surprises—Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You” comes in at number 12 even though it’s irrelevant outside of the holiday season. Also, Blackstreet’s perennially lip synced “No Diggity” placed at No. 24. The list heavily favors contemporary artists—a ’70s song doesn’t appear until number 19 (Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody”) and it’s not until number 48 until a ’60s song creeps in (The Rolling Stones’ “Paint It Black”). Ironically, no songs from the 1950s are in the top 50. Mr. Daniels also points out that a song’s Billboard performance (or lack thereof) does not guarantee future popularity—for example, “Don’t Stop Believin'” barely charted on Billboard, but is now synonymous with the ’80s. This trend is borne out when Mr. Daniels examines the current music scene. Using data from between 2013 and 2015, he finds that tracks like Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” and Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky,” which were popular when first released, have faded from memory. On the flip side, OneRepublic’s “Counting Stars” and Lana Del Rey’s “Young And Beautiful” did not receive much attention upon release, but their popularity via word of mouth continues to this day. Though this data is telling, it’s not a perfect metric—Taylor Swift and the Beatles aren’t on Spotify, but there’s no denying their influence.

Fucking Eminem just dominating as always. Honestly if you look at a rappers career i feel like few come close to really touching what Eminem has done. I mean im not doing any research on any of this but dude has had put out a Hits upon hits, from real shit with punch lines that make you wild out like a black man on worldstar to all the white rap popish stuff that goes platinum and winning Oscars. He dominated CD’s when records were still a measuring stick and now with Streaming services he’s dominated that too.

I dont know what it is about Loose Yourself though but a part of me thinks its that Spaghetti line. I mean you already have the built in rap crowd that plays rap music constantly. But to push a song to the top of the list like that you need some strong white people staying power and i feel like that spaghetti line is the hook. Its been kind of a meme all over the internet now, Chapelle parodied it on his show, Its probably one of the most well known lines in that song. Nothing like the phrase “Mom’s Spaghetti” has ever been said in a rap song that way before and it just took over the world by storm and the proof is in the pudding/Spotify records/internet.

P.s- Do Black people like spaghetti? I mean im sure they have it occasionally but i feel like its not common food item. I just can’t picture them opening up a can of tomato sauce and boiling the pasta and all that nonsense.

Joe Philbin Didn’t Know Who Dr.Dre Was

van-3

Thats just Joe Philbin. The plainest vanilla ice cream white person ever. No toppings. Not adventurous enough for an Ice cream cone. Frankly my reaction right now is like a bowl of plain vanilla too. On one hand its shocking that in the past 30 years someone didn’t know who Dr. Dre was. On the other hand its Joe Philbin. Im not gonna mark this against him though because that was Pre-party Philbin. The Philbin who was on stage Friday night busting moves cutting up a rug on stage knows who Dr. Dre is and probably wants to party with him.

Whats Russia’s Plan on Securing Borders? Use A Scarecrow

Leave a reply
They've been known to use radars, lasers, aerial vehicles, night vision equipment and barbed wire to protect Russia’s 40,000 mile border. But it seems authorities have avoided the high-tech option to protect their interests as work on the mammoth Tongjiang-Nizhneleninskoye Trans-Siberian railway bridge continues. Instead of forking out extra wages, Russian authorities have installed a straw man 'paradummy' to help ward off would-be rule breakers. Reporters in the city of Tongjiang, in north-east China’s Heilongjiang Province, were invited to inspect construction works done on the cross-border Tongjiang Bridge when they found the watchtower manned by a fake Russian guard. The "guard" was wearing Russian military uniform, but when a reporter zoomed in with his telephoto lens to get a better shot, he realised that the sentry was actually a motionless straw man. At 1.17 miles long, the £400 million bridge, is set to open up new trade routes between China and Russia which has the world's sixth-longest international border

Well thats not a good look for Russia at all. Its 2015, Russia. And here you have what looks like an old run down tower thats about to blow away in the wind with cheap scaffolding and no discernible technology what so ever, and the worst looking scarecrow on the planet. I mean c’mon, not even a little magic marker to at least attempt to make it look like a face? No gun in his straw hands to make it look like somewhat of a threat? We all hear the talks about Putin being a tough bad ass and how militant Russia is yet they have the softest looking scarecrow trying to defend their borders against an Asian super power. Its just not a good look. Only thing to do now? Putins gotta find who ever was suppose to be at that post, kill him and leave his head on a pike on that tower. Gotta put the fear in man.

This Hewlett Packard Assistant Snaked The Company Out of Thousands of Dollars.

A woman who worked as an assistant for a senior HP executive was sentenced on Monday to 21 months in prison after pleading guilty to embezzling nearly $1 million from the company. She was also ordered to pay $954,000 restitution in installments of $3,000 a month, Dana Littlefield at The San Diego Union Tribune reports. The woman, Holli Dawn Coulman, pleaded guilty to the charges last year, the FBI reported in a press release. She worked at HP from 2000 to May 2012. Part of her job was to manage corporate credit cards, which were supposed to be used for approved business expenses. Coulman was accused of using them them to "support an extravagant and luxurious lifestyle," the FBI said. This included spending: Over $100,000 at the La Costa Resort Spa Over $43,000 at the Lodge at Pebble Beach and Casa Palmero at Pebble Beach Thousands of dollars in airfare for trips to Hawaii and Europe Thousands of dollars at the Apple Store More than $33,000 in BTO Sports motocross gear Thousands of dollars at Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom The FBI said she also used the company credit cards to pay for more than $350,000 in expenses for her brother’s business. When HP program administrators questioned the expenditures, she deleted their emails, or fabricated receipts and invoices, or sent fake email replies from her boss saying the expenses were authorized, the FBI said. She was fired from HP, The Union-Tribune reports, and then she was fired from her next job after HP notified her new employer of this investigation. Coulman expressed deep remorse for her actions in a letter she wrote to the court, Littlefield reports. She told the judge, "I cannot offer any explanation for the criminally bad decisions I've made ... I would love for a do-over, and admittedly I am scared to death to go to prison ... But I know there must be consequences."

Welp. Guess what Holli, when you get caught flying too close to the sun sometimes you get slapped with company embezzlement, a 21 month prison sentence, and nearly 27 years of paying off restitutions equalling to $954,000 dollars. It happens. She should’ve just had better excuses ready like Elaine in Seinfeld. The resorts in my head I could see as a business expense. Corporate retreat having to destress or a place to talk about company stuff. Big businesses do that all the time. Thousands of dollars at a company rival, Apple? Thats just a work expense. The 350k on your brothers business i cant really defend and the motocross gear is a little bit of a stretch but if you can chalk it up as a work vehicle id try it. You gotta make him believe that the comforter you expensed is actually the Aristotle Goose Down Tunic and you wouldn’t be in the clink for the next two years.

Either way though some of the blame has to be on the company. This isn’t like Peter from Office Space, siphoning off pennies to accumulate millions here. She pulled the good ol, “Oh no you see dad said i could do it” to Mom so its okay. Need to see a receipt? sure let me type one up on Microsoft Word and print it out for ya. And the best of all,  her great scheme, when sent a work email about it, she deleted said email. Boom. Gone. Not a problem anymore if its the trash folder! If you can let a deleted email circumvent all your rules and operations regarding spending company cash, you deserve to get embezzled.

 

A Kid Trips And Punches A Whole Right Through A $1.5 Million Dollar Painting

Leave a reply
Taipei, Aug. 24 (CNA) A Taiwanese boy on Sunday punched a hole in an extremely valuable Paolo Porpora painting at a Taipei exhibition after apparently tripping and trying to catch his balance on the artwork, according to the surveillance tape provided by the organizers on Monday. The 12-year-old boy may have gotten lucky, however, because the organizers will not ask the boy's family to pay for the cost of restoring the damaged painting, displayed as part of "The Face of Leonardo, Images of a Genius" exhibition at Huashan 1914 Creative Park. According to Sun Chi-hsuan (孫紀璿), the head of exhibition co-organizer TST Art of Discovery Co. (京銓藝術), the 200-centimeter tall painting is around 350 years old and valued at over NT$50 million (US$1.5 million). In the tape, the 12-year-old was seen tripping over a rope barrier post while walking near the 17th century oil painting "Flowers." As he stumbled toward the painting, he extended his arms to keep from falling, making contact with the artwork and leaving a hole the size of a fist. Andrea Rossi, curator of the exhibition, was shocked after learning about the incident on Sunday, Sun said, adding that Rossi will discuss restoring the painting in Taiwan with a Taiwanese art restorer on Monday before shipping it back to Italy. Sun said the boy was visiting the exhibition with his mother and was probably not aware of his surroundings because he was focused on the guided tour. According to Sun, the boy was very nervous, but Rossi asked that the boy not be blamed and that the family not be asked to pay for the cost of the restoration. Sun said the organizers will ask the insurance company to cover restoration costs and compensate the owner of the painting. It is the first time that a valuable painting on loan in Taiwan has suffered such major damage. "The Face of Leonardo, Images of a Genius" exhibition is displaying over 50 authentic paintings by prominent artists from the Italian Renaissance period to the 20th century, organizers said. The exhibition was temporarily closed on Monday morning, before reopening in the afternoon. "All 55 paintings in the venue are authentic pieces and they are very rare and precious. Once these works are damaged, they are permanently damaged...we hope that everyone can protect these precious artworks with us," TST Art of Discovery said in a post on the exhibition's official Facebook page. Sun said an 80 centimeter distance was maintained between each painting and visitors so that visitors would not get too close to the artwork. When the incident occurred, there were around 200 to 300 visitors in the venue, within the allowed limit, he said. (By Christie Chen and Sabine Cheng)

Before realizing this was a dead painter, i was gonna say this is a positive for him and i stand by that. Art is so god damn annoying sometimes these ridiculously high cost that are equal to real estate property for some simple brush strokes and shit and a blob of paint on a canvas smeared about. This painting was just a big ass painting of a flower vase. As if a painting of a flower vase and a real life flower vase give me different feelings. They both are just things that cost money that do nothing for my enjoyment. Now me, if i were to own that painting or were a shitty artist iwould just put out an insurance policy and just set up a scheme where a clumsy ass kid just trips and punches a whole straight through the thing. I dont want a shitty painting of a flower but i do want to collect guaranteed millions for it. No guarantees that a painting sells, but when you have a million dollar policy and your signature on the dotted lines of that policy then its kind of a win.

I dont fully know how insurance works for art/anything but im almost sure thats right.

Lady Gets Into A Dispute With A Waiter So He Dumps A Massive Bowl Of Hot Soup On Her

When ever you go to a restaurant you just shouldn’t speak to the waiter. Its far too dangerous of a game to call them out and have them in total control of the food you’re about to eat. Unless its to order your food just don’t say a thing. I don’t even like being nice and chit chatting with them because if they’re nice back i feel obligated to tip more even though I’m poor. And you most certainly shouldn’t say anything bad about the waiter right to his face. If anything complain to the boss after when foods already digesting and you’ve survived. But to complain to the waiter and pissing him off before you get your food? You’re asking for a massive bowl of blazing hot soup to the face.

Three High School Kids Were Duped Into Thinking They Were Recruited To A College In Virginia Beach, Turns Out To Be A House At An Online College

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — Three young men say they bought one-way tickets to Virginia Beach after they were promised their dream of playing college football would be fulfilled, according to an exclusive report from TEGNA partner WVEC in Virginia. Those dreams were shattered when they came to Virginia Beach and realized that there was no football team, and the college they were promised didn’t exist at all. “So we came out here and this is what it was, we came to his house,” said Bernard Walker. Walker, along with his friends Keishay Harvey and Robert Brown said they first heard from Willie Williamson when he contacted them about playing football at a college in Virginia Beach. “He was running Redemption Christian College, we were under the impression that it was this big thing. He made it seem like, you know, the college is really known in the area, we get a lot of people there, a lot of support from churches, and everything like that,” explained Walker. But the college, as it turns out, is not at all what Walker and his friends expected. Walker says they had to sleep on the man’s floor after they arrived to Virginia Beach. That is when they said they began raising red flags. “I asked them, I said where is the school at, the school is wherever you are at, it’s an online school, we are like online, we were under the impression that we are going to be in a classroom, dorm rooms,” said Walker. Virginia Beach police officers came to investigate the situation, but say they found no criminal activity. 13News Now reached out to Mr. Williamson for comment. He defended his organization over the phone. “What we did, there’s Century International College, we have a program, and we partnered with them and they are our sister school, we have an articulation agreement, so everybody who wants to come down, I just brought other kids down here, I’m still bringing kids here, so you publicize it,” he said. Mr. Williamson said he paid for travel fare home for the three young men. Police said the case was handed over to The Economic Crime Unit. This unit handles cases of identity theft,embezzlement, larceny related to check & credit card fraud, computer crime & fraud, obtaining by false pretense, bad checks, forgery, construction fraud, bigamy, perjury, fail to return rental property, and counterfeit US currency and checks.

Well when it comes to higher education and Collegiate athletics Redemption Christian College probably falls to the very bottom of the list. Did these kids get tricked out of money and a missed first fall season of college? Sure. But If you go on the website for 1 second and think that this is a legitimate school, you’re a moron that doesn’t deserve higher education and the college party life. The website looks like it was made on the worst wordpress site ever. Shit this website is better than theirs. I mean getting tricked and persuading them that they should go there for education is one thing but using the football angle? Thats absolutely preposterous. At some point you would think their coaches, school administrators, friends, family members, the fact that “Redemption Christian College” has never been one of the teams playing on the Saturday football slate in the Fall, would clue these kids on the fact that this school is faker than the South Harmon Institute of Technology. I mean the fact that these guys couldn’t google this place and address and see that it was some run down 1 story house is really beyond me and the fact that they even spent the night there on some guys floor is ridiculous. I mean yea i don’t know what a mans suppose to do at that point being duped out of a major life decision, but the answer is definitely not sleeping on the floors of said scam. Any person that can misread a situation like this can’t be trusted on the field.
