Its everywhere and I mean everywhere.
There’s old women doing it, uncles and aunties doing it, folk singers folking it, guitar strummers strumming about it.
What is it? what can it be?
I have excavated the Internet to find these folks doing it in action, but a short disclaimer may be needed, so read on: –
– It isnt rude nor is it offending anybody.
– Its done in fun and not in bitterness
– No animals have been harmed in the search of these images.
– People of a nervous disposition will possibly feel enlightened by these following images.
– No streets have been closed off / flags / banners or weddings have been arranged in, involvement with these images.
The first person I found strangely in a pose that tickled me was a guitar strumming chappy that once sang about getting away: –
I was surprised that Mr Kravitz was found to be in such a peculiar pose, not only the fact his eyebrows have been tinted green it was also the way his hand meets his ear in such a delightful way.
He was not the only person seen caressing his lobes. On my tall travels searching the timterweb I came across a hammer, not of the funny tasting albertz type, this one was a sledgehammer. This in no terms shocked me as his surname in no relation to religious reasons is Gabriel: –
His little green goatee was also so peculiar. First green eyebrows and now goatee beards? Ummm I sense something strange was afoot. With this knowledge in mind I continued my dredging through the deep, deep electronic pacific image ocean.
Something caught my eye, ever so slightly as I gazed upon the many images in front of me, this time it was something animated cupping ones ear. I was surprised to see a pixar animated star cupping his lug’ole: –
It was the one and only Mr. Fredricksen from the animated hit UP. (To confirm there I said Fredricksen not Fernando Ricksen, so no need for projectile vomit.) I noticed that his glasses had a splendid green coloured rim, much like a teenage mutant ninja turtle would have.
I gathered that no more was it a coincidence the ear cupping had caught on from somewhere but why the colour green? I could not work it out so I dug deeper.
I found another ear cupping event this time it was from across the pond: –
Ear cupping was running wild by now. It was unbelievable to find such an icon of wrestling cupping his ear and especially whilst wearing green pants. This summed up my complete investigation, ear cupping and the colour green seemed to come together as one, but as my image investigation drew to a close I found the icing on the wedding cake: –
I was in utter astonishment, an actual prince Charles ear cup! This will really send special union jack Wills and Kate sales plummeting downwards before matches at Ibrox now.
Ear cupping or not, things get said, people do things, people explain themselves and if they have done wrong they get punished.
Cupping an ear or two a crime, folks from the other side of the Clyde? You’re having a laugh!
Someone needs to look up the meaning of excavate
Ummm hope you got a sense of humour from the easter bunny 😀
Sean, hang your head in shame, you have now outed prince Charles and Hulk Hogan as hate filled bigots.
I hope you can live with yourself. 😉
The Mr Fredrickson. That cracked me up.
Different hand signals can mean different things in different countries. Maybe cupping your ears with TWO hands is extremely offensive on the other side of the river(universe)!!!!!
So a one hand job is better than a two hand job?
the ironic thing is walty and ally (aka mills and boon) are running a two handed show. . . Whether they have the correct number of fingers on their hands or not is another story. Just wondering, a little bit off the subject but wasnt people who live under the stairs filmed on the other side of the clyde?
It’s all very well you stating that it’s neither rude nor offensive, and it’s only a bit of fun.
You then further state that no streets need to be closed off, etc…maybe there’s a reason for this.
YOU DON’T LIVE IN THE 16TH CENTURY OR HAVE 16TH CENTURY VALUES.
Some people do though.
@gerry “You then further state that no
streets need to be closed off”
Haha, no, no, no. I was talkin about the royal wedding and street party applications you mongoloid as in extensive time taken in preparation for things, follow my blogpost theme duh. You must have big leg muscles always jumpin to conclusions like that.
and an extremely sore throat from all that abuse he was screaming at mr lennon on easter sunday.
Sean,
RE: “no streets need to be closed off” comment.
Having been brought up in ML9 (google it) I am more than aware, that the flutes, banners white gloves and marching boots, are displayed at any opportunity, with the effect that honest motorists paying road tax etc, are delayed and roads blocked.
When these knuckledraggers respect my right to travel through my village without hearing sectarian and bigotted tunes I’ll let them complain about a fellow human being cupping his ears.
rfc+sfa=cheats.
“and an extremely sore throat from all that abuse he was screaming at mr lennon on easter sunday.”
I really do hope that comment is not directed at me.
I’d be disgusted to be associated with the Orcs attitudes and beliefs, and furthermore respect and support Mr N Lennon whole heartedly.
Bet you drink at the Machan Gerry. As a fellow ML9er I too get pissed off at the continual Saturday morning thumping and fluting. The “Walks” are redundant and rooted in what should be long gone disputes and hostilities. Unfortunately there are those elements in Ireland who refuse to give up their terrorist ways and are hell-bent on reviving the troubles for their own criminal ends. The loyalist side have reacted predictably by singling out the most high profile catholic in the country at the moment. It can’t be coincidence that a certain UVF terrorist flees Ireland with members of his clan and moves into guess where? Yep, good old Kilwinning/Ayrshire.
Both sides of the divide are guilty of acts which are deliberately designed to goad and incite the other half. The tragedy is that otherwise sensible people get sucked in by the emotion and react adversely to the evocative incidents and images.
We could trade insults all day and cite misdemenours committed by the other side and only find ourselves deeper in the hole being dug.
Even at the height of the murdering in Ireland I don’t recall the level of pettiness and poison being shown now by both sets of old firm fans. It was all about the bragging rights and you took delight in slagging your mates who supported Celtic when something befell them, Raphael Shite being a case in point.
The fun has gone out of the game and whilst I don’t want Celtic to win the league I’ll be happy to see the end of the season. Even then I doubt if we’ll be allowed any peace. Too many are forgetting that it’s just the beautiful game. It’s been hijacked by extremists who’ve turned it into something ugly.
More Adairs stay in Clackmannan than Belfast.
it’s rangers who ruined this season, it came off the back of 2 seasons of the most blatant bias in history, when collum gave the penalty against celtic in the 1st derby that was a blatant dive, and he had his back to it, celtic just had to come out fighting, we couldn’t allow it to happen for an entire season again. the sfa were also getting comfortable with their bias believing they couldn’t be challenged, the refs went on strike to try to save the jobs of a liar and a cheat and a bigot, which somehow was all blamed on celtic. then rangers lose their temper in the “shame game”, which resorts in mass media attention from outside scotland, all the rangers people involved walk away unpunished even after a government summit, again somehow celtic are blamed despite keeping their composure, lennon only reacting to doof elbowing a celtic physio, rangers dragging scottish football through the mud, celtic are thrown in the mix. THEN we have the attempted muder of 4 people connected to celtic, again its celtics fault.
?
No surprise! This is real Scotland.Just look at the
the shenanigans of those Scottish parliamentarians in Holyrood. Crossing fingers, oath of office in a language from the stone age. Just farcical!!Small narrow minds, provincial behavior, the good ones are gone some where else! And last, in america they need subtitles to be understood.
