Very good. Here's a quote from ANOTHER Fry.


It's just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus. All year long, the grasshopper kept burying acorns for winter, while the octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV. But then the winter came, and the grasshopper died, and the octopus ate all his acorns and also he got a racecar. Is any of this getting through to you?

One man's opinion whining about the opinions of others. If this isn't the pot calling the kettle black ......

One may assume you find hypocrisy "beautiful"?

Indeed, one could say this for so many things though, to moan about moaning, whinging about whinging, to be intolerant of intolerance etc, but don't lose yourself in the words and in turn miss the brilliant point.

Because 'Offence' and 'Respect' are the two ingenious weapons that idiots like Muslims can use to deviating effect.

Also it just occurred to me (rather late in the day I know)...you're whining about a guy whining about people whining? Beautiful hypocrisy indeed ^,^
