I'll put this here because l am sure many folks will be saying WTF at the thought of Crickets as a food source.

I will come clean and admit l purchased some Cricket protein bars and crackers earlier this month, purely out of curiosity.  They were pricey, but l must say they were very tasty.  The starter pack.  I shared them at the office, the majority liked them.

Sure they did. Did you tell them what they ate  :rofl:
 
I was up front with them.  Honest.  It was more fun watching them try with prior knowledge then by ambush.  Our resident Clearance Diver was especially enthusiastic.  :nod:

HuffPo Editor Brags About Slashing White Authors to Less than 50%, Won’t Fire Herself



Chloe Angyal tweeted, “Our goals for this month were: less than 50% white authors (check!), Asian representation that matches or exceeds the US population (check!), more trans and non-binary authors (check, but I want to do better).”

"less than 50% white authors"

Sounds vaguely familiar,

City of Toronto, Department of Emergency Services

"I also explained that women and visible minorities, once qualified, are placed in their own group and that each class hired would require 50% from that group and 50% from the white male group."

Do the people who come up with these things think that perpetrators live under rocks and never go on social media? 

Perpetrator:  "I'm going to beat the crap out of you and scream profanities while I do it!"

Victim:  "Hold on, do you mind if I order a pizza first?"

Perpetrator:  "Sure, as long as it's not pepperoni, because then I'll know you've really called 911 and are reporting me for possession of a pineapple."

An entire generation has learned to take 9-1-1 for granted. ( Toronto has had it since March 22, 1982. Exactly 36 years ago today. )

But, if calling from a cell phone, and you don't know your location, it can be a struggle to find out where you are.

The good news is that by 2021 they will find you every time - 4 out of 5 times.

On the other hand, today you can order a pizza or Uber with a cell phone app and they will know your exact location.

In India when the ambulance arrives at a call and the patient cannot be revived the crew just leaves them in the street under the hot sun and goes on to the next call. Did I say India? My bad. I meant Florida.

Someone's having a shitty day.  ;D

A daring animal rights activist lay in a pile of manure outside of a San Francisco Trader Joe's to protest the chain’s alleged egg farms conditions.

Cassie King, a student at UC Berkeley, worked with animal rights group Direct Action Everywhere for the stint that turned heads Wednesday morning.

I'm not sure that "daring" is the right adjective here.

Personally, I like their Mandarin Orange Chicken very much.

I wonder what the payout will be?

Woman calls 911. Says son is an EDP & is going crazy.
NYPD arrives.
They spot a man, jump on him and use the Taser 3 times.
They put him in an ambulance and get the woman who called.
Woman looks in the ambulance.
Says ‘That's not my son’.

Yikes, solid payout indeed!!

Similar thing happened in Calgary about, 2 years ago now?  Perhaps 3?

Man with a knife was at NorthHill mall, I believe causing a disturbance at one of the entrances.  No clear signs of mental problems, but a s**tbag who I think was escorted out of the mall by security.

Police called.

Police showed up, jumped on a guy walking to the Safeway who fit the description.  Broke his shoulder, think perhaps fractured his wrist.

Turns out...not even close to being the right guy.  Just happened to fit a similar description, and was walking nearby at the wrong time.

'This won't catch on in Scotland!' Canadian company which makes protein chocolate called SHYTE sends Brits into hysterics
SHYTE - which stands for Seriously Helps You To Energize - makes protein bars
Twitter user Roy Isserlis has made the brand viral after spotting the rude name
The name is very similarly spelled to the British vulgar slang term for poo

By Imogen Blake For Mailonline

A Canadian company may want to re-brand after Scots were sent into hysterics by its very rude name.

A cheeky Twitter user spotted that there is a manufacturer called SHYTE across the pond which makes protein-packed chocolate bars for gym lovers.

The unfortunate acronym stands for 'Seriously Helps You To Energize' - but in the UK of course, the name is pronounced the same way as the slang for excrement, mostly used by Scots.

The company's inappropriate name quickly went viral, especially as the brand was urging people to use the unintentionally rude hashtag: #EATSHYTE.
