And added today! (At the Visa Office entrance) This is getting serious! It's not like they just moved in! They've been here for years!

Gurezaemon:Maybe buying a few hundred of these and sticking them all around the consulate would be a suitably childish (and appropriate) thing to do...?

 

The latest camera can be seen from our bedroom window, they can probably see it as well.

 

If anyone finds a reasonable source for these, let me know.....I'll hang it in the window facing them!

Maybe they're adding more cameras because some dodgy guy named Murray is constantly taking photos of them.

I wonder if "the media" will notice and query the sudden increase in security?

 

Oh that's right, it's the Chinese Consulate - they wouldn't dare release a bot army on their sites!

What if a small group of people, loaded down with bulky and highly visible camera equipment, start walking around the Chinese embassy on public property taking photos of each other? What kind of reaction might that provoke?

I mean, really? What the actual Foxtrot? 

 

A passenger watched an in-flight movie on the in-flight system, which was provided by the airline. 

 

A 15 year old saw a love-making scene on said movie (movie-watcher was not sitting next to the 15 year old) and the mother has gone off on one about how we need to protect children from this kind of behaviour! 

 

I'd hate to think that anyone would be judging me for my choice of in-flight entertainment using the airline system appropriately!!

Sounds like the 15 year old would be more sensible than his mother.

Also, "explicit sex scene" in a carefully chosen, modified-content in flight movie? Was the girl wearing a skirt above the knee, or did the guy have bare arms?

I did the next best thing! I printed the picture of the T-Shirt and taped it to the bedroom window that looks at the camera 😎!

Someone in our facilities/property department has decided we need new signage around the office.  Today this appeared on the door to the men's toilets.

It's an information point for urinary issues?

Come to think of it since the icon could also represent a one-legged man at an a-- kicking contest maybe the other door has the a-- that's being kicked, or a set of crutches to prevent him from falling over afterwards. The possibilities are endless.

The more people rely on it without making a contribution of their own, the less I believe in swarm intelligence.
