And Then Another Head Shaker...

As I’ve said before, every night I retire I think to myself, after that days lunacy, things can’t get any more unreal. I then wake, which in itself is good, to a new day, browse the news and end up shaking ma heed at yet more lunacy.

Wot got me a-shaking in wonderment today? It seems a vegan – I say again a vegan, that’s one vegan, not the whole tribe nor even the chief but just one ordinary{?} vegan, has taken offence to a nursery rhyme tune being chimed - that’s chimed so obviously sans vocals. The so sad kicker is that the one lone vegan voice has won...

From the link to Westmonster below, follow the link therein to the main article a taster of which is this:

“A town mayor granted relief to a local vegan woman who was offended by the lyrics of a nursery rhyme played multiple times a day. The fact the version of the song contained no vocals was no consolation.”

The Westmonster piece ends with this paragraph:

“The slow deterioration of normality in Western society ebbs away as the perpetually offended continue their clamp down on any semblance of normality.”

To end on a lighter note, I honestly can’t stand any and all TV cooking programs. There is, however, just the one show that shines through for me. You watched it? You Gotta Eat Here. Oh the dribbly joy of ‘normal’, heart stopping food!

“Those who are determined to be ‘offended’ will discover a provocation somewhere. We cannot possibly adjust enough to please the fanatics, and it is degrading to make the attempt.”
