WWE doing what it does best: Commenting on pop culture and current events

Russian-themed WWE characters use MH17 disaster as part of act »

The characters Lana and Rusev launched into an anti-American rant in which they made reference to the flight MH17 being shot down and hailed Russian president Vladimir Putin for ‘making fools’ out of the U.S..

People are quite angry about this, so the mainstream media says, on Twitter and all of the other antisocial networks that exist out there on the information beltway.

While it may be the old ‘too soon’ cliche that is best used in this situation, I am not at all surprised at what the WWE is doing.

Back when when the WWE was the WWF, they capitalized on Iranian hatred by making Hulk Hogan win the 1984 title belt against the Iron Sheik..

In 1990, Sgt Slaughter turned his back on the United States and joined with Iraq ..

Hulkster had to ave the say the day and rid the WWF of anti-American sentiment.

So now wrestling has LUNA..

But there’s no Hulk Hogan to save the day this time. I think John Cena is right for the job..

Listen.. We all know, at this point in life, that wrestling is fake. It’s an act.. but so often it’s on the cutting edge of pop culture—it’s how it stayed in fashion for so many decades. Vince McMahan is obviously no stranger to controversy and will get through this LUNA lunacy quite fine.

As to whether it’s offensive? Sure.. but that’s the point. It’s an attempt to market the character as someone we will all hate in unison. It’s quite a keen way of doing it.. controversial, too. But … if an organization was free of controversy, people may very well stop paying attention to it.. Don’t think THAT doesn’t run through Vince McMahan’s mind.

When the Ice cream stops melting

The local newscaster had a little smirk and smile when she told of the ice cream that did not melt in hot weather.. The WalMart Great Value sandwich hardly melted in 80 degree weather—and a second sandwich didn’t melt either.

…In a comparison, other ice cream melted. Walmart’s did not.

But Walmart says it has all to do with the amount of buttermilk, and then got defensive saying that it meets FDA requirements.

Oh and here’s the gem of the ‘news’ story: The reporter ends saying ‘though there is nothing wrong’ with the Walmart ice cream, the customer misses the ‘old fashioned’ ice cream that actually..

“Old fashioned?”

Have we not gotten to the point of no return? Where frankenfood is the norm? Are we accepting this? Instead of demanding REAL food, are we just going to “miss it” while we eat our chemically enhanced cocktails of poison and death?

Ice cream that does not melt. It’s not ice cream…

Soylent Green didn’t melt either..

Case of the Mondays

A frightful Monday.. steering the course of the planet earth down the path of hell and high water, sinkholes and mysteries.. Forever looking deep in the face of obscurity.. meanwhile charging through electrons and atoms in an attempt to figure out if the building blocks of life were just meaningless pieces of cardboard, or even plastic..dumped in an ocean filled with rummage already. The giant yard sale that can be seen from space..
But for something to exist, does it not have to be seen? And if so, is that the reason we are here to begin with? Because something deep in space is watching our every move–or even more: Programming our actions?

Here are the actions taking place on the planet earth today, and the actors acting in them.

Former AP reporter says that United States has satellite imagery proving that Ukraine troops shot down Flight 17.. At this point, the United States and most of the world has joined forces to blame Vladimir Putin for comlicity in what many say is the Russian separatist shoot down of the flight.. Read the article for yourself, written by former AP journo Robert Parry..

When big news happens, big audiences tune to FOX

Megyn Kelly, Sean Hannity Hit New Ratings Highs With Crisis Coverage »

Coverage of both the Malaysia Airlines downed over Ukraine and unrest in the Gaza region helped two Fox News Channel programs reach new total-audience highs, according to data from Nielsen

Kelly is easy on the eyes. Hannity is not. Depending on your political beliefs, their voices are either that of angels or fingernails dragging on chalk boards. Regardless of it all: They won big.

I think one guy and my neighbor watched MSNBC’s coverage.

Russian separatists ensure conspiracy theories abound on Flight 17 shootdown

MH17 flew corpses as passengers, pro-Russia rebels claim »

This certainly muddies up the waters.. Conspiracy theories certainly abound.

The obvious conclusion some have made based off of the Russian claims of bloodless and long dead corpses is that this is flight 370—the missing plane..

Though at this point I don’t know what happened to the 300 that boarded flight 17, maybe they would be put on the next Malaysian flight that goes missing, and a horrible cycle begins..

BUT..

Before a conspiracy theory about flight 17 takes flight, consider this:

A fall from 33,000 altitude can cause cadavers (bodies) to almost instantly freeze, add this to high force of ground impact, it will make bodies (cadavers) appear to be decomposed. ..

This certainly could explain with logic why the Russian separatists are claiming that the bodies are long dead ..

If you believe the Russians to begin with..

As the flight was shot down…

Bodies rained down on Ukraine village after plane disaster »

Reuters reports some gory details from the flight 17 shoot down.. A snippet from their extended article:

One of the corpses fell through the rickety roof of Irina Tipunova’s house in this sleepy village, just after Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 exploded high over eastern Ukraine, where pro-Russian separatists are fighting government forces. “There was a howling noise and everything started to rattle. Then objects started falling out of the sky,” the 65-year-old pensioner said in front of her grey-brick home. “And then I heard a roar and she landed in the kitchen, the roof was broken,” she said, showing the gaping hole made by the body when it came through the ceiling of the kitchen in an extension to the house. The dead woman’s naked body was still lying inside the house, next to a bed.

The rest of the story gets worse.. Reuters reports many women and children being aboard this doomed flight. But even more disturbing is the lack of something .. CNN is reporting that the crash site is largely neglected..instead of forensics analysts on site to recover bodies, it’s a grab bag of personal possessions up for the taking by guiltless looters .. CNN reports:

Emergency workers tell CNN it’s not their job to collect the bodies. And a local pro-Russian rebel leader has said that officials from the Netherlands and Malaysia asked that the bodies not be moved. But rescue crews and inspectors from those countries are not on site. And to get there, they would have to drive about 90 minutes from the city of Donetsk down pot-hole pocked roads. But these lead through a war zone, past checkpoints set up by varying local militias. There is no central command, virtually no rule of law.

Disturbing at the least.. Sickening as well. Bodies just rot in the sunflower fields forever ..

Here’s looking at you

Best I can tell, this is from the 4chan Paranormal board.. tried to ascertain if this is actually an age old paranormal tale, but cannot find much of anything online concerning it.

While I don’t necessarily believe the typed story that accompanies the picture, I can say this: If you look at the woman in the photo long enough, she does start to move.. Back and forth and back and forth—not enough for me to get the chills and believe someone is behind me as the snippet of text proclaims, but it’s still creepy nonetheless.

And I did initially look at it in the dark, which perhaps didn’t help.

While the image works well on a computer screen, it doesn’t translate well onto a phone screen. The bigger it is, the more it moves.

Which does mean, perhaps, a large painting of the girl would indeed really, really creep someone out who is lonely and staring at the image..

If anyone knows where the source of this is from, besides where I think it’s from, send me a message..

And if you are one of those who experienced some of the worst that the text says you could, I offer my sincere apologies..

Wait.. stop.. LOOK BEHIND YOU!!

Why did Flight 17 travel over an active war zone

While people are busy playing a gruesome game of ‘whodunit’ in the Malaysian Flight 17 shootdown over Ukraine, there’s another aspect suddenly getting urgent attention: Why did the plane even fly over that area to begin with?

We know this from the UK DAILY MAIL, reporting information on the air track in recent prints:

The pilot of MH17 radioed that he ‘felt uncomfortable’ about the route he was flying while over Ukraine and fatally altered his course to hostile territory, according to an expert.
Dr Igor Sutyagin, Research Fellow in Russian Studies from the Royal United Services Institute, believes that MH17 was shot down by rebels based in the 3rd District of Torez, in eastern Ukraine, after mistaking his plane for a government military transport aircraft.
He told MailOnline that information had been leaked from a source he was unwilling to name that the pilot of MH17 ‘felt bad’ about his course over Ukrainian airspace, so changed direction.

The White House is calling for a cease-fire .. Obama is blaming Russian separatists.. Russia is denying..

Meanwhile, emergency workers are combing sunflower fields for the remains of wreckage and bodies ..

As the world burns

A clash of news.. good and bad. Real and unreal. On a day when even the real seems unreal..
Here are the headlines presented in random order, without judgement but added commentary when the HORROR REPORT sees fit.

Fearful Friday..

Ukraine has released audio of what it says are pro-Russian separatists on a phone call stating they shot down a plane..

CNN has released a news flash early Friday that US intelligence also believes separatists are to blame..

The dangers of Twitter.. Jen Psaki from the State Department is getting more than enough criticism today .. she posted a meaningless fashion Tweet while the Malaysian airliner was on fire on the ground with body parts scattered for at least 9 miles.. My first inclination: Forgiveness, especially if she auto-tweeted. What some may not realize is that you can schedule your blog/Tumblr/Tweet/Facebook posts to auto publish.. It’s one of my fears, too, auto-posting something which would look abhorently stupid if real events in the world occurred while the auto-tweeting was doing that. If Psaki posted LIVE during this moment? Well that’s pretty shameful.
Also on the same note: British media is lampooning President Obama for his actions post Russian/Ukraine/airliner fiasco: The President gave a 40-second mention of the Malaysian ‘tragedy’ before he launched into an awkward 16 minutes of jokes and scripted teleprompter remarks.. But perhaps teh real problem is not when a DOS official tweets nonsense or a Presidents tells jokes that come up on his teleprompter, but when our intelligence is such that the Kremlim has to tell the President that an Earth-changing event happened..

There is more on the airliner missile strike:
100 or so passengers on the Boeing 777 were on their way to an AIDS conference.. they were scientists and researchers en route to Australia..
There are major questions as to why the plane was flying over a war zone.. One idea floating currently: Malaysian Airlines was trying to save gas..
One report indicates that 23 Americans were on board the flight..

“Do not fly in our sky”

Touching briefly on the subject of Twitter, another embarassment occurred yesterday.. Not another fashion post from the State Department, but from a CNN reporter. When Israel launched the ground offensive in Gaza yesterday, CNN’s Diana Mgnay called Israelis “scum” </A. in a tweet.. If Magnay has a defense, it's this: She was threatened by cheering Israelis who were watching the bombardment of Gaza.. It should be noted, here is when a cautionary ‘think before your post’ statement should be uttered: Magnay deleted many of the Tweets afterwards..

Chilling photos emerge of four Palestinian boys running on the beach–prior to being killed by Israeli shelling..

The next shot fired without a sound may be the United States electrical grid..

Finally at this hour.. some unabashed and deep thoughts.. there is a overwhelming feeling of grief and fear running through the blood of my veins today. Those safe and sound should shutter.. because life is fading and fragile–fleeting and fearful. The purpose of the HORROR REPORT was to report on scary movies and television programs in the industry.. it expanded and continues to expand as it ages down onto other paths. Real news, paranormal news.. UFO news.. space news..
The past 36 hours have been dedicated to events of the realistic nature.
While the world is being torn apart by warfare regardless of continent or country, the ‘it won’t happen to me’ attitude is still something worn as a badge of confidence throughout the planet. The idea that you, me, and whoever reading this, is immune to the horrors of war and the scars of battle. The people flying on that Malaysian airliner, shot down by some group hell-bent on causing fear and bloodshed, did not know they were going to die on that flight. The nun and the AIDS researchers hadn’t the clue that the angel of death was not only knocking but also busting down the door to get in.. the men and women had no connection to the war ravaging parts of Ukraine over Crimea. They don’t know and maybe did not even care of the battle lines. And now, 300 souls become victims. Without notice, without mercy, and without warning. Their bodies vacant souls–now if only we knew where the souls went after life.. There are times world events move me tom tears–lately that’s been happening quite a bit. A NEW YORK TIMES article published today made me eyes swell up with water.. Especially this section of the article, which describes some of the articles of possessions found in the debris of Flight 17:

Dutch belongings were scattered through the grass: a pink children’s book; a parking ticket picked up by a man named Hans van den Hende; a book of stickers. Children’s playing cards were sprinkled near the road.

Anyone with a heart–and especially anyone with children–gets a disburbing feeling in the pit of your stomach when you read that. I did.. and I still do as I re-read it..
I ask myself, and constantly scream out in silent anger to God or whatever else controls this universe: Why always children. Why must they be collateral damage in the sins of men? The drums of war have no beat.. they are just a mix and mess of conflicting thumps and noises of bombs..
With scores of dead children around the planet every hour.
The latest dead child had a pink book, stickers, and playing cards. Little trinkets of goodness and innocence.. now those pieces of peace are shredded by the hounds of war. Gone for good are the beautiful children who played with them..
I pray that this missile hit fast and so furiously that the passengers felt no pain.
But even if they did not feel pain, there will be other innocent men, women, and children who constantly feel pain and suffering in the billowing smoke of the world, on fire, with war.
