Wonko the sane

Terrorists are being compared to Kubrick, thousands of people around the world are dying of war and hunger a day, Bush is pardoning chickens and assaulting Chilean security and most depressing of all, France loses to Argentina in the rugby…at home…in France… in the homeland of French rugby, Marseille…to Argentina…and all the news I can hear, read and download is about a soppy, delusional, career destroying talent show.

There are some at work who are claiming to be depressed at the outcome. So, a disgusting shift to conservatism, a war, countless dead, people being beheaded, refugees being interned in concentration camps, human rights going the way of the dodo and only NOW are you depressed? Simply because Anthony didn’t win Australian Idol? Because Casey will get the record contract? Let me tell you about depressed. I have not watched one episode of that hackery, nor engaged in a single conversation about it and have done all that is humanely and supernaturally possible to avoid any contact with it and I STILL KNOW THE CONTESTANTS’ NAMES. It’s criminal.

And the next person who asks if I can enter The OC competition for them, will get ninety thousand, two hundred and ten Australian idols shoved up their Melrose place. You know what I am saying.
