Do not panic, Citizen. Troubleshooters are on their way
While the UK Government is spending our money on producing a leaflet on surviving a terrorist attack, it's nice to see that hilarious parodies are being allowed to stay up
Hmm. Short post. Maybe more later.

Stupid People
I appreciate (no, really, I do) that not everybody is of equal intelligence. And, I'd go so far as to say, that's probably for the best. But some people are just so dumb, I can't let their stupidity pass without comment.
Take my dear colleagues at WeBuildNetworks. A group of them, today, were talking about how unfair it was that one of them had been fined £60 for travelling at 10mph over the speed limit through the town centre. Yes, at 40mph, through the centre of town. It's unfair, you see, because speed cameras are just there to make money for the Police. Still, I suppose they have a point, speeding is already an expensive hobby. And perfectly safe... a victimless crime obviously.
Oh, and no, none of them voted in the last election, nor could they tell me which parties if any were for or against more speed cameras. Good, eh? I bet they all pay the stupid tax, too.
(For what it's worth, I speed at times. I wouldn't bitch and moan if I got a ticket for it, though.)
