I should really keep some things to myself. :o I have a habit of calling Ken Livingstone Ol' Adolf Kensington. I have absolutely no recollection why I started doing this, but I [i]do[/i] recall that there [i]was[/i] a mind-bogglingly brilliant reason at some point. I'm sure I thought I was being clever, but now I've read it, I cringe a little. It wouldn't be the first time I countered a moment of mental boredom with an impulsive and regrettable expression, statement or act. In fact, I can be quite creative regarding methods of self-humiliation in pursuit of my own sardonic amusement. I either take things too seriously or clown like a loon (or fail miserably to meld the two into something resembling wit). It's a curse. To be perfectly honest though, every time I look at that monstrosity, I hate it a little more. To me, it increasingly represents so much that is wrong. If this country is all about throwing away money on meaningless crap; (poor) style and publicity over substance; being a loud and careless belligerent; ignoring the opinion of the common tax-payer; Big Brother topping popularity charts... [i]then the logo speaks volumes to me[/i] and should probably stand at the very least as an icon of my ire; symbol and Day-Glo example of that which causes my discontent. If there is an ounce of decency left in any of sufficient authority, then this whole branding catastrophe would be scrapped in preference of something more tasteful; more positively representative of this advanced, vibrant, culturally and historically rich, diverse and dynamic city. Perhaps this will happen and a little of my waning faith will be restored. Maybe I'll have a reason not to spout such tired crap any more. Instead, just maybe, they'll replace it with something that a Londoner, and a Briton, could be proud of. _____ [small]I just had to get a random dig at BB in there. If 'it' was a real person, I'd shake him warmly [i]by the throat.[/i][/small] [small](Edited by [url=http://www.ozoneasylum.com/user/4663]White Hawk[/url] on 06-08-2007 00:43)[/small] Loading...
