And in local news, respected family doctor and Veritas MP Dr. Sir Basil Anthony Lawrence Sulkington-Dodds MP has admitted to allegations of indecent liaisons with a younger lady. He claims that the paparazzi hounded him and that some are in possession of pictures with which they had intended to...
"...millions of compassionate people have decided to leave meat off their plates for good."
Subtext: if you eat meat, you are a complete bastard of the highest order.
I have no problem with vegetarians (some of my best friends, etc.), but it's the smug, holier-than-thou arseholes who...
Well said, Eejit.
