Couldn't this have gone in one of the other "news" threads?

This reminds me of a great video that was sent to me of some guys in wheelchairs doing their own version of Aha take on me with their own words. It's from Norway They were kind of taking the pi55 out of themselves. It was sent to me by a chap in a wheelchair who thought it was hilarious. I would share it but there's every chance i would get shot down by the PC police... 

 

 

 

Webbo! its your call!

I'm sure it would be okay. Post it, if it's offensive it'll have to be deleted though.

Fast forward to about 50 seconds for the aha copy song thingy. Having re-watched this, i'm thinking it might get deleted. the ,other songs they do  in this video are really funny but less open to being interpreted as offensive...

Any point in this?

Will just end like the good news thread with Ken continually posting stories about people having benefits cuts in a sarcastic way.

I've decided to ignore his trolling.

I've put him on ignore as well but it will still make a mockery of the thread for everyone else.

How do you sarcastically cut benefits?

 

Well the politics thread ended up with 'This is typical of the looney left' or 'what the papers said about Corbyn's past today'.thread.so horses for courses. Any posts about how the government have cocked up were dismissed as propaganda by the looney left with an agenda and this sub forum is no different going by the NHS is full of leftie militants posts. Actually I do not mind them as I find them amusing and sometimes wonder if the poster is serious or not.

I think I preferred it when you waffled on about tramps Ken, at least then you seemed a bit charming with it. Now it seems like you are deliberately derailing things, do you miss moosebreath or something?

I'm not going to lie I'm a bit upset, every City needs a pub like that, it was a shit hole but had some good times in there.

That said a 50's style US diner could be great, very Pulp Fiction.

The Afghan boy who became an online hit after wearing a homemade shirt bearing Lionel Messi's famous number 10 has finally received the real thing - from the Argentine footballer himself.

BBC Trending helped to locate the child known as "Messi's biggest fan", five-year-old Murtaza Ahmadi, who comes from the Jaghori District, in the eastern Ghazni province of Afghanistan.

Messi's management team confirmed on Thursday that Murtaza was sent a signed Argentina shirt and football from the Barcelona forward, who has been crowned the world's best player five times.

"I love Messi and my shirt says Messi loves me," Murtaza said - already perfecting his own goal celebration.

The online search for the boy was sparked by a single photo that went viral, showing him wearing the homemade shirt made from a striped blue plastic bag, imitating the famous Argentina strip.

Claims initially followed that the boy was an Iraqi Kurd and that the Barcelona star wanted to find the young fan to give him a proper shirt.

But the source of the online rumours claiming that the picture was taken in Dohuk, Iraq, later admitted making it up.

Murtaza was finally identified as the boy in the picture after his uncle, Azim Ahmadi, an Afghan living in Australia, put BBC Trending in touch with his brother, Arif - the young devoted Messi fan's father.

The Ghazni farmer confirmed his son was the boy who captured people's imaginations worldwide and added that Murtaza was "extremely happy".

Messi is a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations Children's Emergency Fund (Unicef) and the agency helped to get the shirt to the boy, posting the picture of Murtaza on its Facebook page.
