It made me snigger - Guess who?

Yesterday I posted this blog The Great Masturbator with the following comment next to Dali's masterpiece.

If you want to shock people and be controversial, having talent makes it far more effective.

Now I would have thought that it would be hard to argue with that statement. I noticed that someone had checked the "Rubbish" box. I wonder who thinks that they are talentless and that I am having a go at them? Truth hurts !

Yup, I'm stupid !

If you've been following my blog, the you'll have seen that I took exception to some statements posted in someone elses blog on the subject of parenting methods.

Anyway my 13 year old daughter saw the offending blog and suitable chastised me having read it. "Dad, why are you getting so wound up. I don't think he's got kids and he probably hasn't got a girlfriend"

Yup she's right, I'm wrong. Ignore them, no one reads their blog.

Wierd or just plain sad?

A few writers such as Simon Hoggart at the Guardian are very funny. Most aren't. Most political blogs aren't (intentionally at least). Maybe it's just me but the saddest thing are these blogs, clearly run by political zealots who say "You must check this out, it's hilarious". You then go and have a look and it's a diatribe against whoever with a few supposedly humorous quips, that in truth just don't cut the mustard.

I wonder whether the authors think we are simple or stupid or whether they are just wierdo's who really don't understand humour.
