Life on other planets
You know, I know I’m not the most in-touch-with-reality person. I spend my days wishing we could just all be a little bit nicer to each other. Nobody ever got in life with that kind of attitude. I’m an underachiever on that score. It’s sometimes a matter of regret.
Then I read this by Tim and I realise that I just don’t care. I’m quite enjoying life on what-planet-are-you-living-on as it turns out.

Unfortunately the recession is not likely to leave the what-planet-are-you-living-on crowd untouched.

“Unfortunately the recession is not likely to leave the what-planet-are-you-living-on crowd untouched.”
And there was I thinking the recession was the fault of greedy corporate bankers chasing mega -profits and multi-million pound/dollar bonuses to be spirited away in the Caymen islands etc.
Well, you live and learn. I never realised it was the fault of the young?
What next I wonder? The burning of anyone over a certain weight for eating too much food perhaps? Or maybe we can blame the over 65’s for the pensions crisis.
Heaven forbid we should criticise or blame the the rich and powerful for anything. Far easier to find an easier target.
What’s it like to be an intellectually lazy slob?
Personally I like this planet.
It’s the people on it I have a problem with.
Of course. I’ve nothing against this planet, per se.
Well, I don’t know. I seem to recall hearing something about the plainness of its ecliptic.
And right on cue BBC Teletext in our local news section reports police investigating the assault by an adult on a 10 year old playing in the street with friends in Lincoln.
The force of the blow to the head knocked the boy to the ground. Police think the man may have been drinking in a nearby pub.
Perhaps he thought the lad was personally responsible for the increase in his gas bills?
