Slouching From the Cheerios – #Whiners

From the WaPost.com, “The baffling reason many millennials don’t eat cereal“.

Few things are as painless to prepare as cereal. Making it requires little more than pouring something (a cereal of your choice) into a bowl and then pouring something else (a milk of your choice) into the same bowl. Eating it requires Bernie_Birdie_Supporters_01little more than a spoon and your mouth. The food, which Americans still buy $10 billion of annually, has thrived over the decades, at least in part, because of this very quality: its convenience.

And yet, for today’s youth, cereal isn’t easy enough.

[A]nother thing happening, which should scare cereal makers — and, really, anyone who has a stake in this country’s future — more: A large contingent of millennials are uninterested in breakfast cereal because eating it means using a bowl, and bowls don’t clean themselves (or get tossed in the garbage). Bowls, kids these days groan, have to be cleaned.

Where You Gonna Hide?

This story poses all sorts of dilemmas for the brave hearts at Mizzou and other “fine” universities.  You know they will soon be cowering in their safe spaces hoping someone will bring milk and cookies to make everything all right.

Long story short, hardcore Islamic dude assaults a 14 year old girl for not wearing a scarf.  Yep.  That was good enough to slap her, and then drag her down the stairs, by her hair.  Oh, and the hardcore dude–he was a teacher at the university.

The DailyCaller reports that a “Mizzou Instructor Accused Of Assaulting Underage Relative For Not Wearing Hijab“.

A graduate teaching assistant at the University of Missouri (MU) has been arrested and could be charged with child abuse after he allegedly assaulted a 14-Islam_Radical_Scimitaryear-old relative after seeing her in school without a headscarf.

Youssif Omar was reportedly at Hickman High School in Columbia, Mo., last Tuesday when he spotted the girl, and noticed that she wasn’t wearing a hijab, a traditional headscarf worn by many Muslim women and that many believers regard as a religious obligation.

According to a Columbia police representative who spoke with the Columbia Daily Tribune, Omar reacted violently when he saw the relative without her Islam_Burqa_Bondinghead covered, slapping her, grabbing her by the hair and dragging her down a flight of stairs and out to his car.

After the incident was reported, Columbia police arrested Omar at his home Wednesday night on suspicion of felony child abuse. Omar was released after posting a bond of $4,500.
