  • Man dusting down his bagpipes

    Man dusting down his bagpipes

    Thursday, 15 December 2022

    Maurice McSporrin has been dusting down his bagpipes and preparing himself for the one time he plays it at New Year.

    The bagpipe, with its slight hole in the bellows, and a chanter that doesn’t always work properly has been in Maurice’s family for 99 years and has been played at family gatherings by his great-great-grandfather, great-grandfather, grandfather and father, however, they could play it better than Maurice can, who has neglected his practice since last year.

    ‘My ancestors saw the bagpipes as a musical instrument and liked people. I saw it as a weapon for keeping people away’ said Maurice.

    Maurice’s neighbours Gary and Lorraine Johnson said ‘I love Christmas, but since Maurice moved in, there is always the sound of impending doom coming from Maurice’s place’.

    We told Gary what the sound was ‘Bagpipes? Bagpipes you say. I always thought he was a slightly strange bloke, and that explains it all.’

    King Charles III, Finally Addresses The Rumors That Queen Elizabeth Was Taking Medicinal Crack

    Thursday, 15 December 2022

    BUCKINGHAM PALACE – (Satire News) – UK writer Reggie Rickenracker with The True Dat News Agency broke the story about the queen’s alleged drug addiction.

    Rickenracker got the story from King Charles III, who told him that he does not know for certain, but the rumor floating around Buck House is that QE was taking medicinal crack to deal with pain from having fallen off her fox hunting horse “Buffy.”

    Charles said that his mother had seen over 12 pain specialists about her pain, which she said felt as if two huge rugby players were standing on her tummy.

    Meanwhile the queen’s BFF, Piers Morgan is insisting that Lizzy (the queen) was not taking crack and added that the strongest thing he ever saw her take was half a teaspoon of hot sauce which she put on an asparagus crumpet.

  • Sgt. Bilko Named New Secretary Of Treasury

    Sgt. Bilko Named New Secretary Of Treasury

    Thursday, 15 December 2022

    BILLINGSGATE POST: This morning, President Biden named Sergeant Ernie Bilko to replace Janet Yellon as Secretary of Treasury. When asked why Yellon was given the hook, the President smiled while speaking out of the other side of his mouth: “I wanted to appoint someone I could trust to skim off money for me and Hunter.”

    Bilko, who studied Finance under Lieutenant Milo Minderbinder, said that, “I look forward to turning both my and the President’s economy around.”

    It was Minderbinder, a fictional character in Joseph Heller’s novel, Catch-22, who inspired Sgt. Bilko to become a master of scam operations. Milo made his mark by buying eggs in Sicily for seven cents each, then selling them in Malta for five cents, and somehow, still making a profit.

    He explains: “I don’t make the profit. The syndicate makes the profit. And everyone has a share.”

    Minderbinder also made money by selling operational secrets to the Germans so that they could bomb his own Command; something that Hunter might be interested in.

    Sergeant Bilko will be bringing his assistant, Private Doberman, with him to the Treasury, saying that he looks a lot like Janet Yellon, but is more trustworthy.

    Dr. Slim: “Possibly, this is the best move yet to bring our country out of the recession.”

    Dirty: “Yo, Doctor Dude. I’m heading to the bank now to draw out my money.”

  • Stop Comparing me to Richard Madeley, says Alan Partridge

    Stop Comparing me to Richard Madeley, says Alan Partridge

    Thursday, 15 December 2022

    Norfolk’s most famous DJ, Alan Partridge is said to be sick of the constant comparisons he faces to lovable TV personality Richard Madeley.

    ‘It is a bit irritating, to say the least’ said Alan. ‘If it was because of the fact that we are both popular with the opposite sex, with popular appeal across the board, then I wouldn’t mind so much. However, people are always seeming to compare him unfavourably to me, which isn’t great. Aha’.

    He went on ‘It would appear that some people think that our Richard is a figure of fun, to be ridiculed for his opinions and ways of talking to people. However, it is just a similar style of television presentation that the snowflakes just need to get used to.’

    One of these men is fictional. Sadly, for anyone watching him on Good Morning Britain, the other one isn’t.

    Box of Twiglets Teresa May said ‘I am here as well, and if as a box of Twiglets you are not sold at Christmas, what hope is there for you throughout the rest of the year?’

  • Putin Letter to Santa Claus Discovered – Ted Holland, Humor Times

    Putin Letter to Santa Claus Discovered – Ted Holland, Humor Times

    Dispatches from SNN (Slobovian News Network)

    The Slobovian Secret Service (SSS) has uncovered a letter to Santa from Russian President Vladimir Putin.

    Slobovian Secret Service agents Redd Hotte and One Hotte Messe have laid their hands on Russian President Vladimir Putin’s personal letter to Santa Claus. The agents were in Russian on a covert operation to investigate a rumor that Putin was planning to slip a crack unit of snipers and saboteurs into The Ukraine disguised as Santa’s elves.

    During their investigation, the agents were uncovered by Russian General Volfgang Krudski. In the ensuing firefight, the agents were able to overcome the General and his six-man hit squad using Molotov cocktails made of vodka. It was on the dead general’s person that they discovered Mr. Putin’s
    letter to Santa.

    The letter was addressed to “Comrade Santa Clauski” at the North Pole, Russia, and read:

    Dear Comrade Santa Clauski,

    I been good little Babooshki this year… only start one war. I leave you plate of cookies and Vodka. I want lotta stuff:

    • I want you nuke Ukraine.
    • I Want you nuke Zelenskyy and bring me his good-looking wife.

    • I want you bring me whole new Russian army… one I got full of pussies from Siberian Bandstand. I want army like Comrade Stalin had.
    • I want lots of new bang bang drones, new missiles and rockets and lots of bullets and Vodka.
    • I want Starbucks come back. Russian coffee taste like shittski.

    Bring me all that, I pay you when I get big check from North Korea.

    Merry Christmaski,
    Littkle Vlady

    Russian President Putin Threatens To Totally Destroy Paris, France With His New, Powerful Y-7 Super Missile

    Thursday, 15 December 2022

    MOSCOW, Russia – (Satire News) – The Kremlin Voice reports that an extremely furious President Vladimir Nikita Putin has vowed on his maternal grandmother’s walker, that he will soon fire one of his state-of-the-art missiles at Paris, France.

  • A Bit of Javascript

    A Bit of Javascript

    We’ve recently discussed how bit masks can confuse people. Argle‘s in a position to inherit some of that confused code.

    In this case, Argle’s company inherited some NodeJS code from a customer who was very upset with the previous development team they had hired. It was a mix of NodeJS with some custom hardware involved.

    Like many of us, the first thing Argle’s team did was just pull up the code and skim the documentation. It seemed thorough and complete. But it wasn’t until they started looking at the implementation that they started to see the true horrors.

    Someone had reimplemented all of the bitwise functions as methods. And the core pattern revolved around the bitTest function:

    function bitTest( value, bit ) {
        let temp = value.toString(2);
        temp = temp.split('').reverse().join('');
        let i;
        for( i=temp.length; i<32; i++ )
            temp += '0';
        if ( temp[bit] == '1' )
            return true;
        else
            return false;
    }
    

    This turns an integer into a string of its binary representation, splits it into an array to reverse the array to rejoin it into an array (gotta think about endianness!), and then pads the string out to 32 characters long, all so that it can finally ask if temp[bit] == '1' is true.

    But think about the readability benefits! Instead of writing the cryptic if (variable & (1 << bit)), which is nigh unreadable, you can now say if (bitTest(variable, bit)) which doesn’t actually convey any more information and in fact conceals a gigantic pile of string manipulation for a very, very simple check.

    I expect this code to be uploaded to NPM and turned into a microframework that ends up powering 75% of web applications by the end of the week, as a dependency-of-a-dependency-of-a-dependency.

  • I have obtained a dog

    I have obtained a dog

    Only 4 weeks but the former owner left her out in the cold. Coonhound. Apparently coonhounds were bred to chase prey up trees and then howl real loud so the hunter can tell where they went, then shoot the animal in the tree. That’s where the phrase “barking up the wrong tree” came from.

  • Tilly the Traveler Visits Russia – Too Many Toasts with Vodka

    Tilly the Traveler Visits Russia – Too Many Toasts with Vodka

    Thursday, 15 December 2022

    Dangerous (but Safe) Senior Travel decided to send me to St. Petersburg. I learned a little Russian and took a picture with me of my Russian Grandmother.

    St. Petersburg is a beautiful city in West Russia near Helsinki, Finland – with lots of parks, museums – opera and ballet.

    Everywhere I went I would show the picture of my Russian grandmother and would have to drink a shot of Vodka with the host. The picture helped to meet people. But what a price! A hangover almost every day. Especially from the Hammer and Sickle Vodka.

    People here are depressed. They don’t like the Ukraine War. Russia has had about 200 wars since the 1700’s. This is the third war with Ukraine.

    Putin historically is basically a Czar. The Czars ruled Russia and were rich. Putin rules Russia and is rich. The Czars had palaces – Putin has palaces. The Czars did wars – Putin does wars. The Czars cruelly killed the people – Putin cruelly kills the people.

    The People of Russia had a horrible Revolution to make Life better – and ended up with all these Bloody Sadistic Leaders – calling them Comrade – but putting them in Concentration camps.

    Definitely a total Failure as a Revolution.

    Anyway, the Museums were great. The Food was great. The People were great – and the Vodka was especially Great. (But I could handle it – as I grew up drinking Scotch.)
