.... mainly because I hate pointless snobbery (newspaper / supermarket etc...)

However, while browsing through the front page on a break, this article came up which I found staggering for one reason - It is so mind numbingly unimportant and pointless that I am struggling to find a reason for it even exisiting in the mind of a human being...

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1265280/CH... - WHO CARES??!

Possibly the only other thing in this world that I have found equally as pointless in terms of a news story, is when Sky covered Wayne Rooneys wedding for the best part of a day, I personally find football so boring that I would rather amputate my wiener than watch a game, but even the hardcore footballers could not see a point.

I guess it is down to perception of what people see as important or newsworthy... I must be very intolorant on that basis.

That topic is actually about something REAL hehe (well partially anyway)

My link is the product of the dribbling imagination of some gay journalist while pruning his lemon tree.

Well, the breasts do need evening up a bit, so i'd go with "not totally happy".

I also like the bit:

dailymail.co.uk/femail

And therein lies the problem. It beggars belief that people are actually employed to fill that section, let alone that drivel of an article.

It shows the calibre of the paper that crap like that makes it to the front page.

Didn't mention the people that read it. The insult was aimed at the paper/website and the people that write it. smile
