To us maybe, but not to the millions glued to soap operas each evening. Maybe they should lay off the glue seeing how he hasn't been in it for about 25 years.

Not if they criticise the organisation, or the approach it takes. Those are the things they did criticise and still got accused of racism.

If alcohol were narcissism, WE would probably never be out of the Betty Ford clinic. I accept, on reflection, that was a silly thing to say. I did though get under the skin of several regulars there and cause the moderators to have to intervene to get them to calm down. I wasn't though alone. It was largely pro-choice v "pro-life" exchanges that caused it, for which some have a black and white viewpoint and simply cannot see the opposing viewpoint, rather than just disagree with it. The paper didn't have the resources to manage it, so closed down the section.

Or perhaps the Catholics who must tremble when you put pen to paper.
Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

Tips hat I am secretly sure that Boris resigned because he knew WE was after him for a perceived financial loss suffered rather than the pressure from his own party. We are lucky to have such a demi-god present in our humble chat. Edited by HKOwen (09 Nov 2022 10.59am)
