Not surprise.. just pointing out that it's a little perverse.

OK. Have fun with that

Anyway, I don't 'trawl' the Guardian - as has been noted here many times, I read the Guardian. For all its faults, it still has the best news coverage for a UK newspaper.


Unfortunately (though often amusingly), it also has the most bats**t-crazy and reality challenged columnists and opinion writers for a UK newspaper. And, yes, they do print things that deserve to be highlighted and mocked on a semi-regular basis.


Besides, I think any sane person would think Alanis Morrisette's advice was dangerous and should not have been printed.

Blimey, it is easy to wind up Guardian readers.

Nicely done.

I don't believe in God, but I do read the Guardian (and the Observer)


Both are in their own 'world' of bonkersness, but there's nothing close to them that I like to read


And the food sections of both are 'word' for the industry


The weekend FT is my anchor to a harsher reality and it's a pretty colour
