While I've got time on my hands (but no money) allow me to recommend some worthwhile sites. Apparently there's a popular series of films called Star Wars something-or-other which are getting a lot of attention at the moment. One of the main characters has been keeping a weblog which is certainly worth a look.

On a slightly different note Modern Toss is great, particularly if you like swearing. I've only ever met one person who didn't.

Well, that's it then.

Yesterday saw the end of my degree (although I've been celebrating this intermittently for some weeks now) so before too long I'm going to have to find another way to occupy my time. What better way than to visit mediawatch. Ah, satire is alive and in reasonably rude health if this is anything to go by. An exerpt if you will:

Arse. Cock. Shit. Bugger. Bollocks. Bastard. Bitch. Wank. Twat. Fuck. Cunt.

All these words are highly offensive and the mere utterance of any one of them could cause the complete collapse of civilisation at any time. Here at MediaWatch-UK we are acutely aware of the damage foul language causes on a day to day basis, in fact recent studies1 have shown that swearing causes more deaths worldwide every year than war and famine combined!

It is essential for the good of all mankind that swearing be prevented immediately. MediaWatch-UK volunteers have done extensive research into the causes of swearing and have discovered a highly worrying trend.

Every swearword in the English language contains alphabetic characters!

It has become alarmingly clear to us that the root cause of all swearing and therefore all problems inherent in British society is this so called "alphabet." We are therefore calling on all good white Christians in the UK to write to their MP's and local newspapers urging them to support a ban on the alphabet forthwith.

Whilst liberals, socialists and other commie scum are almost certain to moan about the "erosion of civil liberties" and "freedom of speech" is it not worth giving up a tiny amount of freedom in order to protect future generations of children from all the problems caused by bad language? It is obvious to us at MediaWatch-UK that it is.

By banning the alphabet the only way to swear will be to do so in a language which does not use the traditional English character set. After extensive research we have discovered that such languages include Chinese, Russian and Arabic - the languages of communists and terrorists! Proof if further proof were needed that terrorism and swearing and intrinsically linked.

As such we at MediaWatch-UK are also calling for the restoration of the death penalty for the crime of swearing in a language other than English. Only once these goals are achieved will society be truly safe.

1 We actually made this up but hopefully that won't stop the Daily Mail from publishing it as fact anyway.


There's more where that came from. Have a look. Like you've got anything better to do.
