Lady Di's death did affect me personally. I frequently had to drive past Althorp on my way to Northampton, and the traffic was terrible.

In which case, I am sorry for you.
Actually - bollocks - I've never met you. I don't care. Sorry.

Hehehe
It's easy to make nasty jokes about people you don't know, but it also works in reverse too eg;

*turns on news*

"....and other news tonight was the passing of Jade Goody. A normal mother who became a nation's favourite finally lost her battle to cancer this morning..."

Firstly, never met the girl. Secondly I never will meet the girl. Thirdly, I never really wanted to meet the girl.

So thankyou Mr Reporter for trying to make us all publicly mourn the passing of this Nation's Treasure. Yeah, dying and leaving kids is a bad thing, don't get me wrong, but if the same situation happened to a family in the same suburb as us the reporters wouldn't give two fucks about it.

However, then it goes full circle.
There is/was an awful underground "magazine" in the punk and anarchist community called "Class War", which pretty well did exactly as it said on the tin - full of articles written by idiots about how they were at war with ... well - everything, especially those they perceived to be middle class, because ... well ... they were fucking middle class, innit. Why? No real idea (these people generally don't) but there it was and that was that.

They used to feature a Page Three Dead Copper Of The Month.

Dear God, Vag.
If I didn't know better, I'd think you were some kind of cynic!

I used to be a cynic, but I grew up.

I used to be a doe-eyed idealist, but I grew up.

We all do, sadly.
Except me.

I have An Agreement.
