Often, when you work in India, your salary is delayed for some reason or the other, mostly due to red-tape. This is particularly a problem when you work with the government, because when you do that they sometimes delay your payment for more than a week.

Strange rules for a Chinese person in China during the Beijing Olympics, where the government has decided to encourage a new kind of manners. Interestingly, and unsurprisingly they also want Chinese people to not talk about their country or government in any way that will harm its national prestige or the country’s image. Of course there’s the usual bit about national security. How the bloody hell can a normal citizen harm national security by saying, “I’m not allowed to make fun of Chairman Mao.”?

Anyway, the part I like best is the bit where it says that queuing is encouraged. Good to hear you can be an economic powerhouse without any queuing, we Indians have hope still. It’s still damn annoying though that people don’t queue. I say this as a person who’s got people to hold a place in line for me, and who has otherwise jumped queues by telling friends to pay my fees and stuff like that. Yeah, I’m a hypocrite.

Which brings me to the topic of ‘hippocrete’, an animal commonly referred to on Digg. It seems to be some kind of large Grecian amphibian.

I was just browsing the BBC Feed and came upon this article about a controversial RyanAir ad. It’s pretty obvious what they’re trying to pull here, but frankly, it’s not all that offensive or anything. I’ve always wondered about people who get offended by stuff like this - what are they thinking? Perhaps, Oh my god, teenage girls will think they’ll get low fares if they dress like that! or maybe They’re insulting the dignity of the young women of the country. They are against British culture.. I can just imagine what would happen if those ads were displayed here. Actually, I don’t have to, I just know there’ll be more car accidents.

We have a strange dichotomy, there’ll be women in wet saris running around trees and wrapping themselves provocatively around the male leads of the movies but the slightest word about anything and cultures will suddenly become offended, women will become insulted and the world will go wrong. What a pathetic bunch of desperate people, here’s a point for you sociologists - this is what happens to people who can’t get any and really really want some. Face it, sex sells, and you like it that way. It’s like those little kids who do something and then act all sanctimonious about the whole thing in the hope that they’ll be the last person suspected.

Of course no one’s falling for RyanAir’s hilarious story explaining just why they aren’t going to be withdrawing the ad. If anyone goes out into the London streets dressed like that they’ll get frostbite, and pneumonia, and just die of exposure.

Here’s the offending ad.

Fortunately, it appears most other Australians have better things to do than being worried that they’re perceived as politically correct.

Dear Friend,

Firstly i apologise for intruding into your privacy, do kindly permit me to
introduce myself. I am Jason Kane, a banker by profession with Rand Merchant
Bank (RMB) South Africa. I have taken time out to source the right
individual, which is your humble self. I possess valuable and classified
information of great interest which i wish to share with you.

I also need to ascertain your dispositions towards receiving and utilising
information from me that guarantees you being legally acknowledged as the
sole surviving relative an investor (name with-held) died without naming a
next of kin to his fund in my bank (next of kin).

The proceeds of this account valued at $15.500.000.00 million dollars can
be paid to you and then you and i can share the money, 50% to me amounting
to US$7,750,000.00 dollars and 40% for you amounting to US$6,200.000.00 and
10% amounting to US$1,550,000.00 for miscellaneous expenses that might
arise. I would want you to understand that this is a DEAL.

I have all the legal and Banking details of the deceased client that will
facilitate our putting you forward as the claimant/beneficiary of the funds
and ultimately transfer of the $15.5M.Consequently, my proposal is that i
will like you as a Foreigner to stand in as the next of kin of the funds
deposited in my bank. I am writing you because i as a public servant, i
cannot operate a foreign account.

Contact me with your full legal names and contact telephone number for
further verbal correspondence.

You must maintain a great deal of confidentiality towards this endeavour.

Awaiting your urgent reply via email.

Thanks and my regards.
Mr. Jason Kane
