International bleating day
In honour of international women's day (and the ever-so-slightly predictable "But what about INTERNATIONAL MEN'S DAY, EH? EH? WHAT ABOUT THAT? WHERE'S OUR DAY? EH?" backlash) I thought it might be nice if we could deal with this kind of thing by setting aside a day in advance for all the chip-on-shoulder whiny bleaters who can't handle the idea of setting aside days to recognise various things.
International Bleating Day will be on April 23, to coincide celebrations of bleating about other people having days set aside for things with the annual grumbly bleating about the fact that England's patron saint isn't as popular as other patron saints for some bloody reason apparently and you can't even fly a St George's cross from your arsehole nowadays without someone wanting to tell you that health and safety means you can't, and there was a police station somewhere that wasn't allowed to fly the St George's Cross but they were allowed to fly the Muslim Flag weren't they?
It will be a lovely day to recognise all those people who feel put out or somehow annoyed by the idea of other days existing, or being set aside for anything. We can combine International Bleating Day with White History Month, to create a series of events in which the contribution of whites to the world is recognised in a way that history lessons, television programmes, novels, films and every single other medium in the world somehow fails to do justice to.
Events planned for this year's inaugural International Bleating Day include:
- Slightly bristling at the thought of other people getting attention that should rightly be ours.
- A raft of press releases celebrating the achievements of white middle-class males who have for so long had their light hidden under a bushel by the soi-disant politically correct Nazis.
- Celebrations of white middle-class male culture, to include the music of CURTIS STIGERS played on an infinite loop while you have to eat A PLATE OF CHIPS or a PLOUGHMAN'S LUNCH at a Harvester restaurant.
- Tut-tutting at the thought of children in school learning about minorities and women and stuff.
I think it's a marvellous thing and I hope that International Bleating Day catches on. It'll be much easier if we just have all the bleating in a handy one-stop shop of mewling misanthropy, rather than spread out throughout the rest of the year.

Yeah but isn’t all these international whatever this or that days a bit patronising and just used by politicians to cover up the fact there is still disgusting amounts of inequality and they are doing sweet fa about it!

Mewling Misanthropy? MEWLING MISANTHROPY???
Okay, so I’m no BNPer, EDL plant or otherwise discriminator of people who aren’t white heterosexual Middle-class males. I like diversity. I just don’t like that saying that White males are people too suddenly means that you’re a RAPIST NAZI OPPRESSOR.
Which it doesn’t, and I’m not. I’m glad we have an international Men’s day. And we don’t need White History month. White History Month is every other Month, especially in the UK.
Okay, this ain’t coming out right. I got a quote.
“They have help. The whole world is built for them. So much so that they don’t see the ones lost in the night. If I spent too long in their world, maybe I’d stop seeing too.”
That was by Angel, from Angel. (great show, too bad I never saw past the first few eps of Season 3)
But that’s what I mean. I pity those that think it’s all coming to an end. Equality will be better for everyone. But Equality isn’t all about the good…

Arf! Love the ‘Muslim Flag’ bit. I’m sure there are people out there (possibly writing for, or at least to certain newspapers) that think such a thing exists…

Bahahaha! Brilliant idea. The white working class area I live in would lap it up. I tried to organise a St George’s Day event locally last year, but the BNP (!!) threatened the pub so the landlord cancelled it – I think they thought we were doing a bizarre double bluff to mock the white nazis or something. You can’t win sometimes.
This though, this idea might just do it.

You should do it again this year and send any BNP related complaints to the newspapers to expose them for the hypocrites they are.

International Bleating Day! Why do we have to share our day with the whole world? Political correctness gone mad! It’s just the elf and safety guardianista BBC pandering to the muslims (with a lower case m).

As long as there is sex and real estate -’equality’ is the opiate of the people.

How about an international Daily Mail day? HORROR!

I came up with the idea of World Whinge Day first, and am now feeling oppressed.

I have no opinion on this matter, because I am made entirely of wood.
Actually, the whole “International X Day” leaves me feeling slightly queasy and not just because many of them even can’t agree on the sodding date.

How about an “International Xenophobic’s Day”, where xenophobes from around the world can get together and errr…oh sorry.

So thats the sheep sorted, what about a day for the wolves to howl at the moon and go and eat sheep as is their right?

What a brilliant idea – I shall definitely be bleating on 23rd.
