We Talk Friday
(WTF)
This is a semi-regular series that I will run on Fridays to hold discussions on a current topic from the week gone. The aim is to keep them light and conversational, though some might be heavier - regardless of the content topic itself though, just have some fun engaging and discussing with whoever happens to put in the effort in the comments section below.
We Talk Friday Ep. 56: Destroying Beauty
1. Without fail
We have some beautiful blossoming trees in the spring, but almost without fail, just as they fully blossom, it rains heavily to take most of them away. And this year, the cherry trees are in full blossom, the apple trees in full blossom and today the pear tree entered full blossom - and then it absolutely pissed down for an hour and half the petals are mush on the ground.
And then the sun came out again.
Asshole.
2. Not Groundhog's Day
Alex Albon may have PETA on his case, after he ran over a groundhog during the first practice session of the F1 in Montreal. But the groundhog wasn't going down without a post-mortem fight, as Albon's car slid on the marmot, and then into the wall at speed, putting him out of qualifying for the sprint race and leaving the team with a hefty bill.
The question is:
Did the groundhog see its shadow, or its ghost?
3. Too Little Testosterone?
This Sunday will be the inaugural "Enhanced Games" held in Las Vegas, where athletes (mostly past their performance prime) have been incentivised to roid up and take whatever they can to try and break the world records in Swimming, Track, Weightlifting & Strongman. It is going to be interesting to see if they are able to break the records, though I am pretty sure that some of those records might not be as clean as they should be anyway.
What would you do to your body for a chance at a million dollars?
What wouldn't I do....
