Finland Hosts Mobile Phone Throwing Championships
hypnosec writes "In this year's annual mobile-phone throwing contest held in Finland Ere Karjalainen has smashed the world record by throwing his phone 101.46 meters. The event, being held every year since 2000 in the town of Savonlinna, saw quite a few mobile-phone throwers participate. 2nd place went to Jeremy Gallop, a South African who managed to throw his phone 94.67 meters. Contest organizers are of the opinion that users can vent their anger on their phones and that this offers a unique opportunity to 'pay back all the frustrations and disappointments caused by this modern equipment.'"
Sad thing is Finland is getting it's fair share of niggers too nowadays. The worst kind, Somalis.
They've committed all sorts of brutal rapes across Europe.
In this world of scarce resources, we should not encourage any wasteful behavior
If you ask people from South Africa or Latin America or large part of Asia about the wasteful behavior of the West, almost always you will get an earful of comments
Like the "La Tomatina festival, the tomatoes throwing contest, where throngs of people throwing perfectly edible tomatoes at each others, at Valencian town of Buñol, in Spain
There are tens of millions (if not hundreds of millions) of human beings in this world who are malnourished - and the tomatoes that gone to waste could have been put into better use than the wasteful display in Spain
And now we have this "Cellphone throwing contest" in Finland
Perfectly usable cellphones that could have found better usage in third world countries are being destroyed, just for the fun of it
It's this type of pure, unadulterated wasteful behavior of the West that has festered anger of many millions of people elsewhere
Because of the wasteful display of the West, when the economic crisis hit Europe and America, the rest of the world actually felt that the West deserves all the hardship brought on by the economic crash
Events such as the "Cellphone throwing contest" are irresponsibility, childish, and wasteful act - and no one, not even the West, should continue to condone such behavior
Muchas Gracias, Señor Edward Snowden !
Look at the pictures again !
It ain't the Somalis who are throwing phones
It's the non-nigs who are carrying out the wasteful destruction of perfectly usable mobile phones
Muchas Gracias, Señor Edward Snowden !
