Kalli is sitting opposite me at the kitchen table watching bits of episodes from “Yes Prime Minister” when this one comes up. Sheer brilliance!
“Hacker: Don’t tell me about the press. I know exactly who reads the papers: the Daily Mirror is read by people who think they run the country; The Guardian is read by people who think they ought to run the country; The Times is read by people who actually do run the country; the Daily Mail is read by the wives of the people who run the country; the Financial Times is read by people who own the country; The Morning Star is read by people who think the country ought to be run by another country; and The Daily Telegraph is read by people who think it is.
Sir Humphrey: Prime Minister, what about the people who read The Sun?
Bernard: Sun readers don’t care who runs the country, as long as she’s got big tits.”
I do not seem to be publishing stuff here very often anymore. This is my first blog and the one I hold most dear. It is just that I have branched out. I now also, apart from my pedagogical blog, hold a food blog where I am just about to write about tonights dinner. Cheerio!
I have 48 carefully selected RSS feeds. A lot of work-related stuff, some comics, and blogs like Boing Boing, Cynical-C Blog, Swissmiss and what have you. I am quite good at keeping up with it all, and I check everything out daily, even though it adds up to far over a hundred posts. Where I am getting with this though, is making the point of where my heart lies when it comes to my feeds. Fact is that if I had to take all of them away but one, I would keep “The FAIL blog”. The childishness in the humour of this stuff is just absolute dog’s bollocks (to use a crude idiom which I incidentally just learnt). The here posted clip from the FAIL-blog, I watched four times over, laughing out loud.
PS If there was one more feed I was allowed to keep, was I to loose all the rest, it would be “Cyanide and Happiness“.
