Spoilt BratsMr Newton sighs, "ever known anyone so spoilt you would love to strangle? I lived with a Paris Hilton-a-like who complained about everything, stomped her feet and whinged till she got her way. There was a happy ending though: she had to drop out of uni due to becoming pregnant after a one night stand..."
Who's the spoiltest person you've met? Has karma come to bite them yet? Or did you in fact end up strangling them? Uncle B3ta (and the serious crimes squad) wants to know.

I made no sweeping generalisationI said that there were some parents living off the state who took the piss and let their kids do so - I, at no point, said "everyone on benefits is a pikey". Those were sentiments that others have attributed to me without actually reading what I said properly.
I've got no problems with helping those in need, but there are those who are being helped purely because they feel like it, or because they are too lazy to work for their home/food/luxuries. That's what I object to and, no doubt, you do too.
If you are of working age and fit enough to work, then there is no reason you cannot be found something to do to pay the bills, similarly, if you are of school age and sitting in a bus shelter drinking cider, then you are taking the piss and the state which is paying to keep you should be able to exercise some sort of punishment, or remove the funding you are taking.
If you are a decent human being, who happens to be injured, sick, or down on your luck, then it is our duty as human beings to help you. I just think there is too little come-back on those who take the piss.
