6/7     A female company manager makes an employee shave himself and skate
        through Southampton city centre in a pink bikini so he could watch
        England's next World Cup match:

        \_ This sort of misandry will NOT BE TOLERATED!!!
        \_ In Southampton, the guy raised 470 quid skating a circuit of the city
           center three times and it made the news. If he did this in Berkeley
           or, better, the city, I doubt anyone would even notice.

           \_ Sure they would. The headline would be, "Male employee sues
              female manager for sexual harrassment."
        \_ 1: this is from ananova.  ananova is not a real news source.
           2: if at all true: lawsuit, firing, etc and rightly so.
           \_ Sounds more like something that was said as a joke, and he
              took her up on it.

7/3     ARG 0 - 4 GER!  That's a huge spread.  What was wrong with Argentina?
        \_ You give a damn about soccer?  What's wrong with you?
           \_ Giving a damn about the World Cup != giving a damn about soccer.
              This has been an exciting, topsy-turvy tournament. Maradona must
              be tearing his (incredibly absurdly dyed) hair out.
        \- re: "what is wrong with ARG" ... against a good team you need

6/9     Synchronized Macarana-esque dance after first 2010 World Cup goal.

        Oh no, the same disease that has plagued football here at home is now
        spreading to soccer abroad.
        \- You may be too young to remember ROGER MILLA and the DANCE OF THE
           CORNER. Did you see BISHOP D.TUTU dancing? That was pretty funny.

Derek Mwanza forced to skate through Southampton in a Bikini so he could watch the England - Argentina game (SOLENT) Derek Mwanza has perfomed the forfeit chosen by his boss so he could have a day off to watch the first round match. Michelle Pilkington told the customer services manager he'd have to raise 300 for Cancer Research UK. But she said he'd have to do it by having his legs and arms waxed before cruising up and down St Mary Street in the city three times in women's swimwear on in-line skates. Mr Mwanza, who has raised 470, told the 20 Daily Echo: "It had to be done really. Some people in the office had already booked the day off to watch the football before me, so there were no holiday slots left.
