Torture Is Illegal
In an ideal world, every person who buys the Independent would be crucified either side of the M4, as far as Swindon. For surely no sane, normal person could possibly buy a newspaper which advertises as an auction item a day in a studio with Richard Bacon – a man who has the charm of Fernando Alonso, the humility of Barack Obama and the personality of smallpox.
For out-of-town readers of this blog who might not have heard of the man, try this (disturbingly obsessive) sweary Richard Bacon hate site for a primer.
The Independent; a newspaper for the type of person who would want to meet Richard Bacon. No wonder their sales are so poor.
Ta for pointing me in the direction of that site. Bacon’s voice is a bona fide nerve-irritant, without even mentioning the shit he spouts.
That site is on my list of daily checks, but I should consider putting it on the blogroll. It’s good value.
Why limit the crucifixions to Swindon?
As it happens the road to Swindon was actually the road which the Romans used to make an example of people alongside of.
In this case, though, there aren’t enough real Independent readers to get much further than the shop on the corner.

Which explains why the Romans built arrow-straight roads, without corners in the first place .. 😉
Suicide. Text book case.
Love the site link. Was feeling glum, but no more. Cheers.
