I give the Daily Mail a lot of shit.
If you look back at some of my old posts, I have accused them of bad journalism … hypocrisy … racism … and while that is all true, I have come to the realisation they are not all bad.
In fact, they might have a heart of gold.
Why?
Because it’s become apparent to me that the reason they end up doing the things they do is not mean spiritedness, but disability.
Yes, disability.
Not of the brain, but the eyes.
I know … I know … you’re wondering what the hell I’m going on about.
Well the answer is simple, what other possible reason could there be for them to write an article like this:
No offence, but I don’t think she looks ‘exactly’ like Elsa from the movie Frozen.
She’s a human and Elsa’s a cartoon for a start.
But hey, I don’t want to mock the blind – after all, after my retina collapsed, I am not that far off being legally defined by the same term – so please accept my apologies for all the ridicule I’ve thrown your way Daily Mail, including the time I mocked you for another looks like article [when it looks nothing like the person you were describing]
You’re a guardian for the disadvantaged.
A pillar of society
A beacon of hope.
Or you could just be a bunch of fucking idiots.

you talk about the daily fail as much as you talk about fucking queen. i fucking loathe the merchants of wank but they make you write slightly less shit blog posts so i like the fuckers a little bit more than i did before.

Comment by Northern July 22, 2014 @ 9:16 pmThat’s the first good thing to come from the Daily Mail in years then …
Comment by Rob July 22, 2014 @ 7:58 amas much as i fucking hate agreeing with you, i agree with you. id give real life elsa the best 3 minutes of her fucking life but i wouldnt even touch cartoon girl. billy would though but then hed fuck a cockroach if it was in a dress.
Comment by andy@cynic July 22, 2014 @ 6:37 amAndrew. Maybe a more appropriate reason for not “doing” cartoon Elsa is because she is actually a cartoon.
Comment by George July 22, 2014 @ 6:42 amGold. Though Andy’s right about Billy.
Comment by DH July 22, 2014 @ 7:10 amExcellent.
Comment by Rob July 22, 2014 @ 7:59 amAll of you would fuck Jessica Rabbit in a heartbeat.
Comment by Billy Whizz July 22, 2014 @ 7:35 amNot the best counter argument Billy, but a fair one.
Comment by Rob July 22, 2014 @ 7:59 amfucker.
Comment by andy@cynic July 22, 2014 @ 9:04 amI don’t know whether this story shows how hard it must be to fill the Daily Mail with “stories” or how little they care. They make TMZ look like The FT.
Comment by George July 22, 2014 @ 6:44 amThe mail is TMZ.
Comment by DH July 22, 2014 @ 7:10 amWhy has a link been connected to my name? I didn’t add it and it takes me nowhere. What evil shit are you up to Rob?
Comment by DH July 22, 2014 @ 7:13 amcampbell is fucking julian assange. emphasis on the fucking ass.
Comment by andy@cynic July 22, 2014 @ 9:03 amIs he even alive any more? BTW, did you see the movie on him? It was utterly terrible. If that was done to secure his legacy, he showed as much bad judgement as he did with the Swedish authorities.
Comment by Rob July 22, 2014 @ 10:31 amWelcome back Rob and congratulations on the news you’re having a little boy. There’s nothing to add about DM, you know they are the antithesis of news without needing these sort of pointless stories.
Comment by Pete July 22, 2014 @ 6:52 amThis blog makes dm look like wikipedia.
Comment by Billy Whizz July 22, 2014 @ 7:36 amThanks Pete and I know you’re right, but I guess I am just addicted to car crash journalism.
Journalism being used in the loosest sense of the word.
Comment by Rob July 22, 2014 @ 8:00 amRaising the bar is what I would say.
Comment by 3rdeyebrand July 22, 2014 @ 2:11 pmYou mean compared to their usual prejudice and hypocriticalness? Yeah … you’re probably right.
Comment by Rob July 22, 2014 @ 3:34 pmUncanny.
Comment by Marcus July 22, 2014 @ 4:38 pmTraitor.
Comment by Rob July 22, 2014 @ 4:39 pmA wee bit harsh that, Campbell.
Comment by Marcus July 22, 2014 @ 4:41 pmIt’s like love, in the eye of the poisonous beholder, ha.
Comment by Rob July 22, 2014 @ 4:48 pmWhat if the eye of the beholder is blind?
Comment by Marcus July 22, 2014 @ 4:51 pmThen they are a politician.
Comment by Rob July 22, 2014 @ 6:11 pm[…] In all honesty, can anyone tell me who would give a damn about this or this? […]
