Modern life made me a racist.
I had "lunch" in a well known motorway "food" establishment today.
Sat opposite was a chap of possibly middle eastern descent. Possibly. But he wasn't eating. Or drinking. He was just staring intently at his rucksack, placed in front of him on the table. Occasionally he'd motion a hand towards the bag, only to quickly pull it back - as though he couldn't quite go through with whatever he was doing.
This went on for about an hour. Obviously, being British, the nagging thought that he might (but probably not. But, what if...?) be a suicide bomber wasn't enough to move me to speak up or complain or even get up and leave. No, the overriding thought was what a lousy final meal this was going to be as I grudgingly went through the motions, resigned to my fate.
I didn't even bother to ponder the ways in which I'd wasted my life. I've done enough of that over the years. I just regretted not ordering the side dish of onion rings as they cost a bit extra and always sound nicer than they actually are. Maybe today, of all days, I should've just taken a chance...
As it turns out, he was reading a Kindle, propped up against his bag.
But it was probably some terrorism shit.
Probably.

Re: Modern life made me a racist.
Oh yeah, I'm all racial. I'm all like 'there's a shit driver in front of me. Arab or African? Ahh, African. Probably'.
Re: Modern life made me a racist.
No, it was the same guy both times. And he's from Wellingboro.
He sometimes goes out on the motorway to forget all about Northants. With only his rucksackin' kindle to accompany his sad flight. Hogging the road all the way. But he can't help pulling in at the pitstops - far more often than he knows he should - to read his guide to Northamptonshire all over again.

Wouldn't it be great if I was the Northampton clown? Like, if I'd been doing that whilst pretending I didn't know shit? I'd be like a superhero, only less gay.

In general - no. The sightings are still occurring.
On here - no. He's still the biggest clown going.

Re: Modern life made me a racist.
ok...while I am not the clown (and have never heard of him/her) I concede to antipathy to "Australian values"
...for several years now if I have to purchase anything and there is a non Oz alternative I will buy the overseas product - is this racist?
...the election of the madmonk represents the hegemony of QBilly culture in this the richest and whingiest country on the planet

That's hardly patriotic, Horace.
Imagine if Abbott had a Joe McCarthy in his ranks.

Re: Modern life made me a racist.
good heavens young laddies...we have had Skully et al whimpering for years about the equally gruesome Gillard and Krudd...I mad e no bones about what merde they were and how this country's values were being chucked down the toilet and replaced by qbilly fascism....and this was under the ALP...
you misunderstand the difference between legit criticism and Skully and BD's animist barking at a full moon...
the filthy madmonk is a natural progression from the wolf whistling of gillard, carr and krudd...
now we of course we sink the boats which was what the majority of whitey Oz voted for...inevitably turn back the boats was code for sink the boats

The boat set sail from Indonesia with an Indonesian crew & sank in Indonesian territorial waters. Sounds to me like its Indonesia's problem.
