FamilyIndian Man To Sue His Parents For Giving Birth To Him Without His Consent by massmediang(op): 9:05pm On Feb 03, 2019
Dialogue is always the best option for peace to reign in the world but does that actually apply to relationship between parents and their unborn child? Well, an Indian man is changing that narrative as he is about to sue his parents for giving birth to him without first engaging him in a dialogue and getting his consent before his birth.

The 27-year-old man, Raphael Samuel, from New Delhi, India, is an anti-natalist, a person who believes that people should abstain from procreation because giving birth to sentient beings without asking for their consent is morally wrong.

Samuel doesn’t have anything against children or life itself, he simply believes that a life form which has not given its consent to live should not be brought into the world and thus to be subject to the hardships of life. Because he considers himself a victim of life without “forced life”, the young Indian plans to take his parents to court.

“I want to tell all Indian kids that they don’t owe their parents anything,” Samuel told The Print.
“I love my parents, and we have a great relationship, but they had me for their joy and their pleasure. My life has been amazing, but I don’t see why I should put another life through the rigamarole of school and finding a career, especially when they didn’t ask to exist.”

The 27-year-old runs an anti-natalism Facebook page where he routinely posts anti-procreation messages like “Isn’t forcing a child into this world and forcing it to have a career, kidnapping and slavery?” or “Your parents had you instead of a toy or a dog, you owe them nothing, you are their entertainment”. His page, Nihilanand, only has 431 followers, but Raphael doesn’t seem to bothered about that, after all, we all have to start somewhere.

“Other Indian people must know that it is an option not to have children, and to ask your parents for an explanation as to why they gave birth to you,” Samuel said.

Although still small in number, India’s anti-natalist movement is growing at a steady pace and plans to set up a national-level organisation that works on spreading awareness about child-free living. Their arguments range from ethical ones to easing the strain on Earth’s resources or defying societal pressure.

Superbowl Advert War! Coca Cola And Pepsi Use Founders’ Statues To Achieve ‘Cola Truce’

The Superbowl is a major advertising event in the United States of America every year. It is a sporting event which is premised on unity as millions of people watch from every part of the world. Well, the idea of unity did not apply in all cases this year. The event was fast creating an atmosphere of war between two giant soda brands in the world – Coca cola and Pepsi. Here’s how the ‘battle started’. This years event which is Superbowl LIII is being hosted in a town which is the home of coca cola; while Pepsi is the official sponsor of the Superbowl and its half time show. The advertising war was getting a bit bigger than expected until there came up what is described as a ‘coal truce’. Checkout this story.

Two teams unexpectedly struck a sugary truce on Wednesday for the Super Bowl, but the goodwill looked wobbly, report’s AJC.

PepsiCo, in a surprise marketing stunt tied to this weekend’s Big Game, briefly placed a statue of its founder Caleb Bradham beside a life-size bronze statue of Coca-Cola founder John Pemberton, located outside the World of Coca-Cola in downtown Atlanta. The spot is near where Super Bowl pre-game activities are taking place, ground zero for dueling marketing by the ferociously competitive cola brands.
In a quick, stealth photo shoot, Pepsi made it appear the statues were about to clink glasses of their respective colas.

Pepsi tweeted “Hey @CocaCola thanks for being such gracious hosts for #SBLIII this week. We agree #TogetherIsBeautiful so we’d like to get our founders together for a celebratory cheers to declare a temporary #ColaTruce for the day. See you at @WorldofCocaCola soon!”

Coke, which hadn’t been given advanced notice, apparently played along with its archrival.

TravelCatholics Sign Petition Against Statue Of ‘friendly’ Satan Taking Selfie In City by massmediang(op): 6:52pm On Jan 31, 2019
Thousands Of Catholics Sign Petition Against Giant Statue of ‘Friendly’ Satan Taking Selfie In Spanish City

Plans to erect a giant statue of Satan taking selfie in the middle of a Spanish City is causing a row between Catholics in the city.

An artistic proposition in the Spanish city of Segovia, northwest of Madrid, where local authorities hope a statue of Satan will become a tourist attraction, is not going down well with some residents.
The statue’s impish demeanor has upset Roman Catholics, who have collected 5,500 signatures on a petition decrying it as “offensive” to their religion.
The petitioners say the proposed devil looks too good natured. Plus there’s the whole selfie thing.

“This representation is offensive to Catholics,” the petition states, arguing the devil should be portrayed in art as “repulsive and despicable, not friendly and seductive.”

A legal complaint has also been lodged, although this has reportedly been dismissed.

The Satanic statue is intended to sit 200 meters from Segovia’s famous Roman-era aqueduct as, the city council says, “a nod to the legend” which claims the structure was constructed by the devil himself in just a single night.

‘Sad controversy’
Not everyone is concerned about the sculpture.

A rival petition supporting its installation has been signed by over 2,100 people.

The devil sculpture “is a part of the legend of the Aqueduct of Segovia, which doesn’t affect morality or religion, since it’s nothing more than a character from a legend,” reads the appeal.

One of those hoping to ensure the statue gets built is its creator, José Antonio Abella.

BusinessWoman Strips In Front Of Bank Manager To Get Approval For Car Loan (video) by massmediang(op): 12:59pm On Jan 29, 2019
A young lady has stunned a bank manager after she suddenly removed her clothes in front off him in an attempt to convince him to approve a car loan for her.

The young woman had already been refused a loan at the bank so she decided to device another means to get approval for the loan by stripping in front of the manager.
Yulia Kuzmina, who is reportedly in her mid-20s, went to a bank in Kazan, the capital city of The Republic of Tatarstan in western Russia, to secure a loan for a new car. She filled out all the necessary forms, but her application was denied after the bank’s analysis determined that she was an unreliable borrower.

After pleading with the loan manager, Kuzmina decided it was time for desperate measures and started taking her clothes off in front of him, report’s Oddity Central.

In a video that recently went viral on Russian social network VKontakte, Yulia Kuzmina can be seen sitting at a desk in the Kazan bank, the name of which has not been disclosed, opposite a young, male loan manager. After having her application denied, the young woman stands up and takes off her short dress. She appears to say something to the embarrassed bank employee, who keeps his cool and shakes his head.

Left in her bra, but feeling that she needs to up the stakes, Kuzmina proceeds to take off her undergarment, revealing what she considers her best assets, her breasts.
At this point, the loan manager continues to shake his head and eventually gets up from his desk, walks over to the bare-chested customer and hands her coat. He then shows her out of the bank.

Daily Mail reports that after the video went viral online, Ms. Kuzmina confirmed the incident to the press, telling reporters: “I am in a difficult situation. Those who judge me do not know what they would do in my shoes”.
Interestingly, instead of commending the bank manager for the self-control displayed under “extreme” circumstances, many of those who commented on this story called him “boring” and “gay”.

Can you imagine such responses to a man who kept his cool? Well, that’s definitely not how to get a bank loan, at least this story has proved that.

Jail Tourism! Two Men Pay To Spend Two Nights In Prison Just To Have The Experience

Sometimes you feel like changing your environment. You might want to leave your home and try a night on the moon, in an underwater restaurant or even in an imaginary paradise with streets made of pure gold and pizza prepared with diamonds. Definitely not a night in jail. Well, two Malaysian men made global headlines with a stunning decision to pay for two nights in a jail cell just to know what it feels like to be a prisoner.
The world now knows, Ng Inn Wo, a dentist, and his friend Ong Boon Tek, a restaurant owner, after they flew all the way from Kuala Lumpur to Hyderabad to get jailed. You might say these guys are crazy, but they’re not.

These guys spent a weekend at the Heritage Jail Museum in Telangana, India. The Telangana Prison Department runs the unique jail tourism programme called “Feel The Jail” where anyone can spend 24 hours inside the Sangareddy prison.
This jail is not just any jail. It is unique and truly a tourist attraction. It is more than 220 years old and was constructed in the year 1796 A.D, during the Prime Ministership of Salar Jung I. So you see, you might actually want to know what it feels like to spend a night in such a place (if you have wacky features in you).

Watch Video! Man Attempts To Deliver Package Directly To First Floor On Top Of Van, And This Happened


A delivery man is making headlines after he was secretly recorded attempting to deliver a package straight onto first floor of a building while standing in his van.
The video shows a delivery man flinging a package while standing on top of his van, onto to the first floor of a balcony.
According to reports, the video is believed to have been recorded in Germany.
The Hermes delivery man can be seen trying to attempting to throw the package multiple times, when it crashes on the ground.
After multiple failed attempts, it lands inside the balcony only the third time. While some found it amusing, others were raging at the delivery service’s callousness.
“I genuinely don’t see the problem here. Parcels delivered and it’s safe. Anyone that orders fragile items online needs their head read anyway. These guys have a seriously packed timeline & work unbelievably hard,” wrote one Twitter user.
A Hermes spokesperson told The Sun Online: ‘We believe that this video was taken in Germany and we are liaising with our colleagues, who are investigating this clearly unacceptable behaviour.’

Food‘fake Or Real’ Amstel Malta Campaign! Nigerian Breweries Where Is Your PR Team? by massmediang(op): 6:33pm On Jan 19, 2019
You may or may not have come across what is referred to here as the ‘Fake or Real’ Amstel malta campaign. There’s a video currently in circulation alleging that a fake Amstel malta brand is in the market, warning consumers to be careful while purchasing the brand. The video shows what it calls original Amstel malta brand and then the one it calls fake. In fact, it is almost convincing. What you can only do if you don’t want wahala is to simply tell yourself “I won’t drink Amstel Malta again”, since you don’t know which is original and you can’t take the pains to always check every container of Amstel malta you want to drink. In fact, this even happened to me. I had told myself I will not drink Amstel Malta again until I decided to dig deeper into this ‘fake Amstel Malta’ campaign only to discover it was actually Super Story (apologies to Wale Adenuga productions).
Now, check this out. It happens that there’s no such thing as ‘Fake Amstel malta’. The company that produces the drink, NB Plc only made some slight changes on the container and felt the next right thing to do was to get approval from “the relevant regulatory agencies, including the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control, NAFDAC.” Well, that is definitely the right thing to do… on paper though. I wouldn’t want to say that the Public Relations (PR) team of NB forgot that the malt drink market in Nigeria was not just competitive but fierce, shrewd and having a no-holds-barred atmosphere. So sneaking in some changes on the malt container for whatever good reason was not enough. Paying for adverts on a few elitist media to make the changes known to the public, was also definitely not enough in this digital society where governments can even be overthrown on whatsapp.

What is now happening to Amstel malta is that the ‘fake malt’ campaign has continued to resurface from time to time, knocking out some consumers who are not enlightened enough to figure out that the ‘fake product’ campaign is actually a fake campaign. Whether the company wants to believe this or not, the fact is that a good number of people will definitely stop drinking Amstel malta because of this campaign. How many people who received the whatsapp video on the existence of fake Amstel malta have seen the other write-ups debunking the claim? People in rural areas is even cities, who received the message on whatsapp may not have the data to browse the internet to read where NB debunked the false claim. They might not even watch television to at least have the chance of coming across the message debunking the fake amstel malta campaign. What of those youngsters who save their data just to watch movies online and download latest naija songs? They may have seen this message on whatsapp but might not visit the social and mainstream media platforms where NB’s statement debunking the fake malt campaign was posted. So has the PR team of NB taken the war beyond the online community? Has the team even realized that this is a war? There are battles that begin online but can only be won offline.
Some people are of the opinion that very mean competing brands may have arranged the fake Amstel malta video to give a sucker punch to the market leadership position of this malt brand. The NB is now facing what could be described as one of the greatest public relations challenges any company could face in modern times, regarding one of its products, Amstel malta. The negative campaign against Amstel Malta has been on since 2016. This is because as at January 2017, some social media platforms were posting messages from NB debunking the Fake Amstel malt campaign.
This Day online recently posted a comment from NB debunking the current fake Amstel Malta campaign which suddenly resurfaced from no where. Did I say “from no where?” Sorry, we can guess where the fake malt campaign came from. Don’t rule out the fact that two groups of sources are possibly at work here. First, competitors who could be planting the story or videos from time to time to ensure that the Amstel Malta brand takes a serious hit whenever is dominates the market for a long time. Next is innocent Nigerians expressing the spirit of consumerism, who definitely have not seen the other side of the story where NB debunked the argument. This second group is made up of those who are exhibiting the saying that whenever you wake up is your morning. So whenever you buy a smart phone and the fake Amstel Malta campaign video flies into your phone via whatsapp that’s definitely when your own campaign to ‘save the world’ begins. You start sharing without asking questions. There are several people who will always buy the fake malt story at any time. Many will not even bother to ask the sort of questions I asked before decided not to believe the story. If you look at the two containers of the the so-called fake and original Amstel Malta you will discover that there are just about three slight changes. So you ask yourself someone who was able to ‘fake’ other important features on the original container, what does the person stand to gain by spending so much money to make a fake one? Why not start your own Malt drink company? That’s by the way.
I ask the question again, NB where is your PR team? Sneaking in some changes on the container and pushing the product into the market without appropriate backup campaign has potential consequences, and that’s what Amstel Malta is facing now. What is happening now shows that the changes were simply sneaked into the market, whether the PR team agrees or not. The public was not carried along while the change process was on. This is a fat lesson to other companies making such changes on their product content or container.

PetsSee Dog With The Most Incredible Hair (video) by massmediang(op): 7:19pm On Jan 18, 2019
This is probably one of the most beautiful dogs you may come across. It’s an Afghan hound with amazingly incredible hair. The owner has spent about N5 million on hair and bathing products for the dog.

AJ Nirvana Battle, a three-year-old Afghan hound from China looks like the canine version of a fashion model, with a slender physique, and loves posing for pictures. This dog has the most incredible hair.
AJ Nirvana Battle’s looks aren’t all natural. Owner of the dog, Kevin Chan, a Beijing-based marketing director, spends six to eight hours bathing and grooming him every seven to ten days, and doesn’t mind spending big money on the best grooming equipment and hair products. He claims to have spent around 100,000 yuan ($15,000, about N5,400,000) on grooming tools for his three-year-old pooch, and spends another 1,000 yuan ($150) on bathing products every week. That’s a lot of money, but Chan says it’s worth it, as he considers Battle a member of the family.

Chan, 29, sprays a nutritious solution on the dog’s fur to smooth it, and then uses a bristle brush with talcum or baby powder to detangle knots in his fur.

BusinessCompany Manufactures Fragrance That Can Relax Workers And Boost Productivity by massmediang(op): 10:35pm On Jan 16, 2019
A company has launched a special fragrance that allegedly enhances productivity at work place.

This product, ‘Spirit de Travail’, was created by International workspace company Spaces which recently teamed up with Dutch lifestyle brand Marie-Stella-Maris to come up with to this fragrance that can allegedly boost productivity and make people feel more at ease in the workplace.
Productivity at work can be influenced by a variety of factors, of which smell is one of the least obvious. According to research done by Prof. Gary E. Schwartz from the University of Arizona, negative feelings like irritation, annoyance and stress can effectively be countered by fragrances that induce positive effects like happiness, relaxation and productivity. The findings of this study inspired Spaces, a company that specializes in building custom workspaces for businesses and professionals, to come up with a fragrance that both relaxes users and boosts their productivity.

Spaces didn’t have any experience creating fragrances, so they teamed up with Marie-Stella-Maris, an Amsterdam-based lifestyle brand that sells luxurious care products and natural mineral water. A small percentage of every item Marie-Stella-Maris sells is donated to water projects all over the world, as the company is dedicated to making clean water available to everyone. It was this social mission that greatly influenced Spaces’ choice of a partner for their productivity-enhancing fragrance.

HealthMan Disabled For Life After Selling Kidney To Buy Iphone by massmediang(op): 2:51pm On Jan 14, 2019
A young Chinese man is currently full of regrets after he secretly sold his kidney to buy iPhone 4 only to end up bed-ridden for bad.

Xiao Wang was only 17 years old when he opted to sell one of his kidneys in order to buy the iPhone 4 which he desired but couldn’t otherwise afford.
After the operation Wang was told he was going to have a normal life with just one kidney, but almost eight years on, the 24-year-old is permanently disabled and dependent on dialysis.
Back in 2011, the iPhone 4 was Apple’s flagship smartphone and a status symbol at Xiao Wang’s school in Chengzhou, China. However, he came from a poor family who couldn’t afford to buy him the trendy gadget, so he decided to sell one of his healthy organs in order to get his hands on enough money to buy the coveted device. With help from a middleman, Wang got in touch with shady characters who specialized in trading organs on the black market and agreed to sell one of his kidneys for 22,000 yuan ($3,200), more than enough to buy the iPhone 4 he so badly desired. Unfortunately, this foolish decision would completely ruin his life.

CrimeRobber Attacks Woman He Never Knew Was A UFC Fighter, Begs Her To Call Police by massmediang(op):
This is a lesson to male robbers who want to attack women without first going online to confirm the identity of their target.
A robber made the mistake of his life after he tried to steal from a woman he never knew was a mixed martial arts fighter. The robber learnt the hard way as what befell him was more than he bargained for. The woman beat him up so badly that he begged her to call the police.
The robber who tried to steal a cellphone from the young woman in Rio de Janeiro learned the hard way that mugging a mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter who goes by the nickname “the Iron Lady” was a bad idea.
Polyana Viana, an Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) strawweight, brought the hapless perp down with two punches and a kick and held him in a “rear-naked choke” before making him sit and wait for the police, she told the sports website MMA Junkie.
She said the man said he had a gun but she guessed it probably wasn’t real. After subduing the assailant she discovered the weapon was in fact a cardboard replica of a pistol.
Viana, 26, kept the man in a submission while she waited for police to arrive.
She told MMA Junkie: “When he saw I saw him, he sat next to me.
“He asked me the time, I said it, and I saw he wasn’t going to leave. So I already moved to put my cell phone in my waist. And then he said, ‘Give me the phone. Don’t try to react, because I’m armed.’
“Then he put his hand over [a gun], but I realised it was too soft.”

EducationCollege Teacher Allegedly Dismissed For Having A Big Butt (watch Video) by massmediang(op): 11:54am On Dec 24, 2018
This is the viral story of how a who was allegedly sacked for having a big butt. People are still doubting the authenticity of this story, as some online users allege that the woman must have planted it herself to gain attention. Well, if that was her initial plan, then she succeeded. A viral video showing the lady in class flaunting her backside has been buzzing the internet since last week. This has raised controversial debate online as some say the woman is a distraction to students because of her indecent dressing in class while others say she owes no one any apologies for her dressing.

Someone even suggested the lady deserves a pay raise for making students come to class (reports have it that the class is always filled up whenever she arrives to teach).

If this lady is actually a teacher and she dresses this way to class, what is your opinion on that?

Highschool Student Injects Bible and Koran Verses Into His Body As DNA, See What Happened Next

This sounds incredible and crazy at the same time but a high school student has out himself through a bizarre experiment some scientists think is absolutely unnecessary and “stupid”. The boy selected some passages in the Christian and Moslem Holy Books, converted them into DNA patterns and injected same into his body. Just how did he do that?

Adrien Locatelli, a young bio-hacker from the French city of Grenoble, has been called an “idiot” for putting himself through a bizarre DIY experiment in which he injected a DNA pattern made from translated passages from the Bible and the Koran into his body just to find out what will happen.
Locatelli, who is believed to still be in high-school, began by selecting passages from the Christian and Muslim holy books that he wanted stored in his body in the form of DNA. He then assigned one of the four letters corresponding to the chemicals that DNA is made of (ACGT) to every character in the passages, in the order GACT.
He searched online and got a free online tool which he used to translate the nucleotide information into protein sequences that he ended up injecting into his thighs. He said he did this bizarre experiment because he was curious to know if it could be done.
“Recent studies have reported that it is possible to convert any type of information into DNA for the purpose of storage. Since it is possible to convert digital information into DNA, I wondered whether it would be possible to convert a religious text into DNA and to inject it in a living being,” Adrien Locatelli explained his controversial experiment.

Music/RadioTop 10 Most Annoying Christmas Songs In The World, You Won’t Believe Nos 3 & 9 by massmediang(op): 3:44pm On Dec 23, 2018
Christmas songs are meant to lighten up people’s souls in readiness for the yuletide celebrations. There are classics such as “Jingle Bells”, Bing Crosby’s “White Christmas” and Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You”. These are songs that are evergreen and give you the best of feelings about the holiday when you listen to them. But do you know there are songs described as Christmas horror? Here are top 10 most annoying Christmas songs in the world. I bet you’ve never heard most of them. You might even find some of them too nice to be on this list but when you pay attention to the lyrics and analysis you wouldn’t doubt their presence here.
1. “Dominick the Donkey” by Lou Monte
In this song, Italian-American songster Lou Monte says “when Santa visits his paisans,” he takes his donkey Dominick along “because the Reindeer cannot climb the hills of Italy.” This song was considered a novelty when it was released in 1960 and the Italian Communities in New Jersey where Monte grew up loved listening to it, report’s msn. Today, it is considered hilarious by children probably because of the changing times. But if it were to be a classic changing times won’t affect. It now sounds a bit wacky when you listen to is.
2. “The Christmas Shoes” (New Song)
3. “All I Want For Christmas (Is My Two Front Teeth)” by Spike Jones & his City Slickers
4. “The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don’t Be Late)” by The Chipmunks
5. “Wiggly Wiggly Christmas” by The Wiggles
6. “Do They Know It’s Christmas” by Band Aid
7. “Gott nytt jul” by Sean Banan
8. “Rudolph The Red-nosed Reindeer” by William Hung
This song was released by failed American Idol wannabe William Hung in 2004. This guy became popular after his tone-deaf rendition of Ricky Martin’s “She Bangs”, after which he put together a holiday album called Hung for the holiday. That album had this song that is featuring in the top ten most annoying Christmas songs.

9. “I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas” by Gayla PeeveyNow this title sounds wacky for a Christmas song. Once you see it yourself get curious to listen to the song. Just checkout a bit if history behind the song.

Long before the Cincinnati Xoo’s Fiona the Hippo became an internet celebrity, Gayla Peevey, a 10-year-old girl, sang a novelty song in 1953 about wanting a hippopotamus for Christmas. This song became an instant hit and Peevey even performed it on a popular programme at that time, the Ed Sullivan Show. A promoter organized a fundraiser to buy Peevey a hippopotamus which was donated to her hometown’s Oklahoma City Zoo. The hippo named Matilda, became a popular city resident until she died in 1998. The story is cute but let’s not forget that the song is what is being assessed here. The song has inaccurate, wacky content. In the song, Peevey sings that he mother sees her as delusional for requesting a hippo for Christmas and wanted to dissuade her by telling her the hippo would eat her up. But then “teacher says the hippo is a vegetarian.” Hippos are generally omnivorous animals, though with carnivorous tendencies. So this is disinformation.

10. “Shake Up Christmas” by Train.
The lyrics of this song sound a bit weird. The song was released in 2010 when the “Drops of Jupiter” rockers tried to get into the holiday spirit. But with weird lines such as “Before I get too old and don’t remember it, s let’s December it and resemble it,” you wouldn’t doubt why this song is on this list.
