About Me

Isn't this meadow soothing? Let's pave a road through it! I'm James Riswick and these are my random thoughts published daily.

Dec 8, 2008 - Scenes from the Internet: Somebody Hand Me a Shotgun

This is hardly news, but it is just so offensive, I couldn't let it go without commenting about it here on Thoughts. When Magrath (or Kurt Niebuhr, I don't remember) sent me this, my loud vocal responses of revulsion filled the office.

"Are you OK Riswick?" someone asked. I wasn't, not when the world allows such atrocities to happen. I don't even particularly like the Veyron, but this is just wrong. Not quite drawing a mustache on the Mona Lisa wrong, but a crime nonetheless.

This hideous $1-million-plus abomination is brought to you by fashion something or other Bathing Ape. They also brought us this.

I just threw up in my mouth. I really hope Rolls-Royce has more self respect than to aid in this insult to Frederick Rolls, Charles Royce, the Spirit of Ecstacy, the United Kingdom and Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

Somebody hand me a shotgun, somebody's got to take these idiots out before they spoil something else.
