Twatwaffles Of The Week

And away we go...........................

First we have a Dicknozzle of Douchebaggery:  An unidentified female California State University, Northridge student who had a meltdown in the campus library during Finals Week because some of her fellow students, in her view, were talking and breathing, yes---breathing, too loudly.

Dude, It Is Finals Week!!! Stop Breathing At The Top Of Your Lungs

Of course, the student who was irate made more noise telling everyone else how loud they were than anyone else in the library.  You know, I am a student myself.  I understand the stress and anxiety of Finals Week, but, for the love of Pete, chill out a little, will ya'?

Number Five:  An unidentified female thirteen year old Philadelphia middle school student who is currently under arrest for passing the sleep aid Ambien to some of her classmates.  Seven were sickened with two in hospital overnight.  Reports indicate that the offending student essentially had a mobile pharmacy at the school.

Remember the good old days when the worst thing that school administrators had to worry about was hooligans like me smoking in the restrooms?  Also, a gold star goes to the first person who points out the grammatical error in the attached article.

Number Four:  An as of yet unidentified (We are falling into a rut, my friends.) male nurse who allegedly touched a female patient's breasts and stomach in a "sexual manner" while the young lady was in hospital for dehydration. 

Former Hospital Patient Says Male Nurse Touched Her Breasts

Dear readers, I take this one personally.  Being mere weeks from earning my RN license, this really hits home.  When  one practices medicine, one has to put one's hands on members of the opposite sex, but one must maintain the utmost in professionalism and decency.  I do not wish to be too judgemental since this matter is still under investigation; but if the allegations are proven to be true, this disgrace to the honorable profession of nursing needs to lose his license for life!

Number Three:  We have a twelve way tie for number three this week, friends.  Twelve members of the Kenmore (NY) East girls varsity basketball team who routinely engaged in a racist chant in their locker room prior to their games.  It seems that in order to prepare themselves to play, they needed to chant "One, two, three, niggers!" before they took to the court.  Needless to say, the one African American member of the team was offended by this and rightfully so.  However, when she confronted her teammates, she was met with the usual "we aren't racist" nonsense that is to be expected from a community that is 97% white.  The end result of this overt bigotry as well as other taunts involving slavery, chains, shackles, and referring to Tyra Batts, the African American member of the team, as a "black piece of shit" was a fight between Batts and an offending teammate.  Batts and the other girl involved in the fight were suspended.  After investigation, the entire team was suspended due to their racist behavior.

As I was writing this, I checked the calendar.  I'll be damned if it isn't 2011, so why are these bigots acting like it is 1962?  Sickening.  Repulsive.  Pitiful.  Hateful.  Outrageous.  The list goes on and on.  I have asked this question over and over again.  Why do racism and bigotry continue to exist?

Number Two:  We have a two way tie for second place on this week's dishonor role, Arthur Brasher and Michelle Hanks who were arrested for allegedly kicking in a Provo, UT woman's front door, entering her apartment, and hitting her with a golf club multiple times.  Provo Police Sgt. Matthew Suifanua told ABC 4 that the victim knew the suspects, who broke into her home to collect on what they claimed was a debt owed to them by the victim.

According to media reports, the victim was not seriously injured, but it seems to me like this is another example of society having no regard for human life anymore.  I don't know how we as a species got to this point, and I have no idea how we redeem ourselves.  I wish I did, but I don't.

Number One:  Zachary Meints, 23, a youth hockey coach arrested on suspicion of Internet sexual exploitation of a child.  So far, police said they have interviewed 13 potential victims/witnesses. Five of those victims were under the age of 15 at the time the alleged exploitation, which involved inappropriate sexual messages.

Youth Coach Arrested On Internet Sexual Exploitation Charges

Is it just me, or does it seem like there are more and more pedophiles in the ranks of sports coaches, trainers, and such?  I find the whole matter to be quite disturbing.  Please implore to your children to tell a trusted adult if anyone acts in an inappropriate manner with them.  It could be the difference between a life and death.

Peace and love, my brothers and sisters.
