Sir Salman

Salman Rushdie getting a knighthood is a justification for suicide bombings. Damn right. Fury was terrible - nowhere near as good as his hilarious Satanic Verses.

Mosquito

A mosquito is a device that emits a high pitched sound that only young people can hear. Its purpose is to prevent young people from congregating in public places. I am really surprised to hear that some people think this is acceptable.

Firstly, young people congregating is not a crime. Young people hang out and talk. That's what they do. They're too young to go to pubs or clubs, and their pocket money doesn't stretch to constant trips to the cinema or restaurants.

Secondly, there are many devices for preventing public congregation if there's a problem with congestion. This is the only one I know of that only prevents one section of society from congregating. It's no different to finding a statistic somewhere that says most muggers are black, and putting up signs saying 'no blacks' on the tube.

If anyone can think of a reason why these evil little things are acceptable, please let me know because so far I'm struggling...

Meg is...

I am a new devotee to Facebook and have become slightly obsessed. It's a combination of being able to share news and photos really really quickly with lots of people, and a sort of guilty nosiness in seeing what other people are up to. I've joined all kinds of exciting groups from the Gok Wan appreciation society to It's Called a Migraine, Bitch. I'm currently toying with the idea of joining I wish David Tennant was my Doctor.
It's great. If you haven't already, please join. I need more friends.
