I Care About Everything Except PM Fanta Pants and Mr Rabbit

It’s been a red letter day for the rational among us.

In the news, some fishermen spent a crap night out clinging to the hull of their boat after being submerged by a bad storm. On their safe return to land, thanks to highly skilled rescue teams, the leader (can’t go with captain) repeatedly said, “All I can say is, 'Thanks to God. Really. Thank God'.”

This is not only rude to the guys who risked their lives to save the fishermen in foul weather, it’s ignoring who’d nominally be responsible for bad weather to start with.

In other news - a woman claiming to have supernatural abilities went out looking for the body of missing six-year-old Kiesha and, after finding the decomposing torso of a grown woman, is now being feted as the next important psychic phenomenon.

That’s like being sent out for basil and coming home with a book about whippets.
