Two Repressed Egotists

Is this like knee-jerk reversalism?

We were wrong about Obama, so let's all run clear to the other side of the room?

We figured Bush was dumb because he sounded dumb. Obama sounded smart, but turns out he's probably dumb, so maybe Palin's smart cause she sounds kinda dumb? She's got two kids named "Track" & "Trig", so how smart can she be?

Joe Swash narrowly missed being the inaugural post of the ‘Unremitting Bastard’ blog, but the guy is rendered benign by an inordinate lack of intelligence, and can’t be held to account. That said he really is pushing his too thick to be harmful credentials with ‘Joe Swash: I Believe in Ghosts.’ I wouldn’t raise an eyebrow if I was told Joe Swash has commissioned a special net with which to catch Father Christmas, and thusly I do find it hard to understand the rationale behind allowing him to mediate a potentially interesting argument between spiritualism, religion and science. Unless the rationale was cynically; who is thick enough to allow even the kind of person that watches a programme on ghosts on BBC 3 feel superior? (I do realise that I fall squarely into that category.) Perhaps a producer overheard him pronounce poltergeist.

Take a look at this frankly ridiculous promotional webpage for Canon camcorders over at The Guardian .

It's trying awfully hard isn't it? Freecording! Apparently, that's "living and shooting at the same time"! Who'd have thought that was possible?

Following on from last week's post on PR bumf masquerading as credit crunch news, another offender has appeared in today's papers.

Apparently, according to The Guardian, "the old-fashioned high tea is enjoying a credit crunch revival"...

Currently there are three people in my office who seem to be competing to be the first to say 'bless you' whenever someone sneezes. It is unbearably annoying especially as everyone seems to have a cold at the moment, and so you can more or less guarantee that someone is going to sneeze at least once every ten minutes. This is making my office environment even more unpleasant than usual - not only am I made extremely aware that the very air that I'm forced to breathe is a toxic cloud of snot particles destined to make me ill, but I'm also prevented from concentrating on anything for any prolonged period by a barrage of shouted 'bless yous' every five minutes or so...
