Curling - WTF is That About?
Gentle typographical WTF design WTF, an internet slang acronym for “What the fuck?”
Internet slang (Internet language, netspeak, or chatspeak) is slang that Internet users have popularized and, in many cases, coined. Such terms often originate with the purpose of saving keystrokes, and many people use the same abbreviations in text messages and instant messaging. Acronyms, keyboard symbols, and shortened words are often methods of abbreviation in Internet slang.
Curling is a team sport with similarities to bowls and shuffleboard, played by two teams of four players each on a rectangular sheet of carefully prepared ice. Teams take turns sliding heavy, polished granite stones down the ice towards the target (called the house). Two sweepers with brooms accompany each rock and use timing equipment and their best judgment, along with direction from their teammates, to help direct the stones to their resting place. The complex nature of stone placement and shot selection has led some to refer to curling as “chess on ice.”

A SLIPPERY thief who stole a refrigeration trailer from a Docklands ice rink made off with more than $55,000 worth of curling rocks.
The 58 rocks, worth about $1000 each, were used in the Victorian Curling Association’s competition. Each rock weighs about 22kg.
The theft of the rocks, which happened sometime between Tuesday 16 June and Tuesday 7 July, was discovered after the competition resumed following a school holiday break.
Police said the trailer, valued at $7,500, was stolen from a secure car park at the ice rink at Wonderlands Park at Docklands.
