It's too late at night to come up with a pithy title
Now I'm working on tonight's post. That'll make more sense once you've read Monday's post.
Curiously, I'm doing two posts today and I'm still getting them done earlier than when I normally do one. Must be something to do with the extra pressure making me work harder. I'll use that as my excuse for revision work as well. Now, onwards to a topic!
You know those anti-drug adverts and educational videos where they have stories of people who died and interviews with people whose lives have been ruined? What if those start really working? I mean, what if they're so effective that nobody takes drugs any more? Where are the next generation going to turn to get the shit scared out of them?
Personally, I plan to let my hypothetical future-kids think about the matter and, since common sense seems to run in the family, they should be able to conclude that sticking highly dangerous and toxic substances directly into your veins is a bad idea. If that doesn't work, I'll just tell them that I did drugs. Kids hate to follow in the parents' footsteps so that should work.
Of course, I'll have to let the eldest take all kinds of enhancement drugs so that they can win the fight to the death against Sam's eldest child.
On second thoughts, maybe it would be best for everybody if I don't have children. Of course, that'd mean Sam would win by default and there's no way in hell I'm letting that happen.
As usual, I've completely forgotten where I'm going with this and since the time for posting is rapidly approaching, I'll leave you with the knowledge that Skippy is planning to post a New Word at some point soon. He advises that the best plan to make him post more often is just to club him with something. I don't know where he is exactly, so I'm just going to get out Citizen Cane and swing it around wildly. If he's in the country, I'll get him.
One final note. I was watching BBC 1 comedy tonight, QI and Have I Got News for You, specifically, though there was a gap between the two, which is when the funniest thing I saw came on. What was it? A BNP party political broadcast. The best part was when, after five minutes of slagging off every other major political party and putting up low quality images of their logo, the standard BBC disclaimer came up pointing out that what party it was for. Those crazy racists.
