#so oscar pistorius was in the news this morning#and like i have nothing to add in a conversation about him being granted parole#but it did remind of the trial and the general coverage of reeva steenkamps death#and i was like i have a vague memory of one betting company letting you bet on the outcome of the trial#because i remembered it being on the last leg and adam hills very passionately condemning it#but i was kinda hoping id either dreamt it up or it was more satirical#but i looked it up anyway#so uh#fuck paddy power#not only did they offer bets on the trial with ''money back if he walks'' (AS IF REEVA STEENKAMP WASNT BRUTALLY KILLED)#but theyve also offered bets for potential extinction of polar bears in 2009 or which species will be driven to extinction quickest by the#deepwater horizon oil spill#oh also on prospective assassinations of barack obama#oh they also had an advert for ladies day at cheltenham festival - whatever that is - where they said they were going to send in some#''beautiful transgendered ladies'' and basically encouraged you to ''spot the stallions [among] the mares''#which yeah fuck that you transphobic assholes#oh and they also apparently made an error when they offered odds in 2017 on ugo ehiogu - who had died earlier that year - becoming the#new manager of brum city footie club#which hell of a fucking cockup#most gambling companies are immoral nightmare corporations in one form or another but wow way to go paddy power to use borehole technology#to limbo under an already subterranean line
