    Typical of the nine-fingered toad, or as some might insist, seven-fingers and two thumbs, to immediately announce he would rebuild all the roads in RS.

    By no means minimizing the hardship and suffering the people of that State are going through, a terrible catastrophe, but what nine-finger's must've been thinking when he announced “Bureaucracy will not stand in the way of us recovering the greatness of this state”, was the opportunity to syphon off some money in the process.....

    Reading between the lines, what “beaurocracy will not stand in our way” really means is that no tenders will be put out, the executive branch will announce what they will do, and when, without the slightest transparency - as this is an emergency which cannot be hindered by silly 'beaurocracy' .

    And the PT worshippers all applaud, just like the members of the Chinese National Congress when Xi Jinping blows hot air...

    Hey Jack, I trust all is well with you!

    ‘or as some might insist, seven-fingers and two thumbs’, LOL you never know when Lurkio will pop up.

    Rebuilding all the roads in a place the size of Rio Grande do Sul is going to take time and a lot of money, more if it’s being syphoned off in the process, but does nothing to alleviate the current situation.

    However some people stand to make a lot of money out of this.

    “And right on que” Clinker turns up.

    A 'clinker' which is what your behavior exemplifies exactly. Which is what you are, when you shoehorn yourself into someone else's dispute. Particularly, when you think there is safety in numbers. Only to find that at every 'snide-a-side' you always lose the argument, as a perpetual loser. Couldn't happen to a more deserving person.

    Pugol , imoyaro,

    Nice to see you are alive and kicking, especially kicking F*ckwitt's arse for him...
    How incredibly stupid he is, to write, regarding my post :

    “By no means minimizing the hardship and suffering the people of that State are going through, a terrible catastrophe ” :-

    Nine-Digit Midget's comments :
    “You opine, with no evidence”.
    [ “That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence” Christopher Hitchens ].....

    Numbnuts thinks it's my opinion, without evidence ??????? without evidence ????

    He could easily tune in to any Brazilian TV news channel, and watch the scenes and videos of the havoc and destruction in RS, caused by the heavy rainfall - 600 ml in 72 hours.

    Undisputable proof - not my 'opinion'....just fact.
    Perhaps he would like me to post a video of the tragedy ?

    Ah yes, of course, I forgot, his dear old Ma doesn't allow him to have TV in his smelly basement......it makes him excited and he attacks the cubpoard where his inflatable dolls are stashed.

    But we all know that F*ckwitt does not like the facts, they go against his sick, lying lefty narrative .....he feels he must defend nine-fingers at all costs.....like most of his brainless supporters, despite the evidence he is all talk, and no action.

    Once again, F*ckwitt can't resist providing definitions to explain his wonderful choice of words....“clinker”.....what would we do without him ?

    Pugol, aren't you overestimating F*ckwitt's intelligence, by thinking he might learn, or even understand the little ditty you posted ?

I hate being gross in my blog, but its a gross thing, believe me. For some unexplained reason, Brazilian piping and sewage is not compatible with toilet paper so people never flush the toilet paper down their toilets. Instead, they provide little baskets, sometimes with lids and sometimes without, beside the toilet for the toilet paper. If you refuse to use them, as I did at first, you end up blocking their entire piping system.”

    Pugol-H,

    I see that Terrence F*ckwitt, or Terry DungHill, carries on resurrecting his claims that all households in Brazil, or most, by what he implies, still use bins beside the potty to place soiled bumf.....as I've told him before, but he refuses to listen, is that it is probably true about old construction, but since I've never lived in shitty homes, or basements, I have not had the opportuniuty of having that enlightening experience. I must be spoiled.

    Electric showers ? yes, they abound in poor neighborhoods and in old buildings, because when built they did not foresee natural gas for showers. When I moved out of my parents' home, sometime ago, my first flat had an electric shower, wasn't very nice. Over time, much better and safer electric shower heads have come on the market, but nothing like the large flow of water from a gas powered shower....something I'm sure Terry does not have in his basement...probably only a bucket of water and an aluminium mug.

    But getting back to RS, the F*ckwitt has either checked the news - and seen that what I said about the rains being catastrophic, was true - or, refuses to acknowledge that he's an idiot. Either way, true to his sick personality.

    He resorts to ad-hominem attacks when his arguments fall to pieces, and beats around the bush like he doesn't know where he's going.

    F*ckwitt writes “Narcissists and their flying monkeys often repeat lies as if they believe telling a lie often enough somehow transforms it into the truth. A lie is still a lie no matter how often it is repeated or who believes it.”...........
    It's a shame that he does not realize that is exactly what he does...all the time.
    He can't even forget Chicureo, who hasn't posted on this link...signs of a disturbed mind, one that believes everyone is out to get him, that he is a victim....of what ? his own stupidity perhaps ?

    Well Pugol, please keep it simple when giving advice to Terry, his mind only evolved to the level of a six year old.

    The issue has never been how Brazil handles its toilet practices it was resisting your claims that I had never been to Brazil. The release was because I had never known of the practice until I went to Brazil. Thus giving veracity to my claim.

    “carries on resurrecting his claims that all households in Brazil, or most, by what he implies, still use bins beside the potty”

    Your original claim was another lie

    Oh and don’t forget the ‘little sticks’ to put in the wheels of bicycles as they wizzzzz by, after ‘Pie Face’ battered you, remember that, the cheering children lifting you on their shoulders and throwing you over the school fence into the mud.

    Given the definitions of ‘fingers’ as listed below:

    Cambridge English dictionary:
    ‘any of the long, thin, separate parts of the hand’.

    Oxford English dictionary:
    ‘One of five terminal members of hand’.

    merriam-webster English dictionary:
    ‘any of the five terminating members of the hand’.

    wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand:
    ‘The human hand usually has five digits: four fingers plus one thumb, these are often referred to collectively as five fingers’.

    Not only is ’10 fingers’ grammatically correct but ‘common parlance’ in English around the world, now that is irrefutable proof.

    Oh and for religious references see:

    Terry F*ckwitt,

    Your above “revelation” is quite surprising...backtracking on previous allegations, eh ?

    “The issue has never been how Brazil handles its toilet practices it was resisting your claims that I had never been to Brazil. The release was because I had never known of the practice until I went to Brazil. Thus giving veracity to my claim”.

    Oh Terry, you misled us all....tut, tut....so all your indignant claims had little or nothing to do with soiled bumf clogging bogs, but were about your trying to prove you've been here....a bit of an odd way to try to prove something....I mean, alleging one thing (insisting all homes use bins beside the toilet), to prove another (that you've been here...)....but unfortunately, it still “proves” nothing, other that you read about it and presumed it was true...

    On the other hand, saying you've “been here” is definitely not the same as “having lived here”......anyway, whichever it was, it does not support your claim about the bumf/bogs, unless of course, while you lived here, you travelled extensively throughout the country, which if you had, might have enabled you to see clogged bogs ....and which would not be found in upscale homes.....but in lower class ones and in public bogs ( into which the plebs throw all kinds of shit, thus the need for bins )....

    But the question persists, since you now claim “you have been here”......is it you've “only” been here, you know, passing through, or did you live here for a reasonable period of time, during which you either lived in, or visited, many homes all over the country.....you know, just to “give veracity” to your claims....I'm sure you'll understand, we cannot just accept your word.

    Well, now is your chance to clarify the “confusion” once and for all...would you care to detail what your experience was all about in Brazil ? perhaps you were a bog inspector, something similar to your occupation while allegedly in the RAF ?

    Your 'fraud by omission', as the citation you are relying on says, specifically.
    “any of the long, thin parts of the hand that bend and hold things, esp. one other than the thumb”

    So your çlinker behavior is revealed to all a sundry, and you are barred from any further part

    I see, no comment on ‘little sticks’ or ‘cheering children throwing you in the mud’, or indeed ‘winged monkeys’, just more about ‘bags of soiled bumf’ which shows how your mind works.

    There are four definition from reputable source that all say the thumb can be included as a finger, the only ‘omission’ here is you admitting that.

    And you offer no evidence that the thumb cannot be called a finger, do you, no you don’t.

    Also you have previously on here repeatedly refused to say whether you have ever been to Brazil, have you not:

    The F*ckwitt, as always, sidetracks the issues when they become hairy....he brings them up, then when shown to be exercises in idiocy, he carries on lying about them, when not simply disowning his stupid statements - as he did above.

    Don't know whether his allegations about having “been to Brazil” are blatant lies which he believed he could get away with, or whether he embellished them to try to give his lies, or his claims, a bit of “veracity”.

    Nevertheless, afaic, it's clear sign that he is a liar and a first class bullshitter, because the evidence he provided - his articles about “where do I put my toilet paper - prove absolutely nothing. Anyone can search the internet to provide articles to back up one's claims, even if they are contradictory ....choose the one that suits your narrative.
    The only problem with that, is that someone who has actually lived the experience, can see through his BS.

    He indeed fits one of his favourite phrases, ”no proof, no truth”.

    Until he produces real evidence that he was ever here - just visiting, or actually lived here - such as an address, or when/during what period, or even a Brazilian Immigration stamp in his passport (if he ever had one).

    While he expects us to take his word when he asserts something (without backing it up), he demands proof from others...typical brainless, supercilious lefty.

    C'mon Terry, give us some proof.
