Today's Sun headline - Dog Bite Yob is Killer

The Sun reports that one of the Rangers fans involved in clashes with police in Manchester is a convicted murderer.

well ... there's a surprise (not !)

This kinda thing reminds me why I never read the sun. I occasionally pick it up in a pub or when waiting for a take away (i.e. someone left it there). It is like a comic. I really don't understand how it finds an audience but then I don't understand how some people manage to breath and think at the same time.

Here is my guide to newspapers and their readers:

The Star: ADD? No problem, few pages, few words, lots of tits.. Ay...

The Sun: Feel slighted by people who worked harder to get a better standard of living? We make you feel better by destroying them. Oh, and we have tits.

The Daily Mail: Sun readers who pretend to be educated. News is usually a couple of days behind the Sun, but has more words involved (I guess they needed more time to run it through the spell check). We are tits.

The Daily Express: The worlds greatest newspaper, and also the worlds greatest tits and I am not talking breasts.

The Times: I could never read the Daily Mail, but broadsheets are so troublesome on trains. Nice feature on bluetits.

The Daily Telegraph: Now you are playing with the big boys. Our crosswords are better too. TITS? Is that an Acronym?

The Observer: Nice Tits. Mostly Harmless.

The Guardian: Tally Ho! TITS? What What?

The Financial Times: I own you all, tits included.

Not much choice left for you then is there, Mr Superiority? What do you read? The Metro because its free (of tits) or the Dandy!?

You are a real mister grumpy now aren't you! I wonder how many more of my messages you have replied to such vigour.

I read some of those newspapers (mainly telegraph and times, but have been evil enough to read the daily mail on occassion). It was an attempt to take a lighthearted comical look at newspapers - that is all. The fact that you took offense means I wasn't obvious enough. Perhaps I need more smiley faces in my messages but maybe that would offend too.

Sense of humour bypass methinks! I was in fact joking too, hence the exclamation mark at the end of the post. Nevermind.
