I was looking at yesterday's Guardian. I *love* their reaction to the election: the G2's front cover is a completely black page with just the words "Oh, God." in the centre. (I'd've gone for 'oh, fuck' myself but I'm not sure they're allowed to print it.) I also love the journalist's comment about staying up "till 4:30 in the morning; long enough to cry like a girl."

Meanwhile, the Daily Mail smugly applauds Bush's wonderful victory for the 'moral majority' and manages to come out with the stupidest thing I've ever read in their paper, which is quite a feat:

"Not only would [gay marriage] undermine the institution of marriage itself, but it further called into question what it meant to be human."

Leaving aside the confusing mid-sentence change from future to past tense: what the hell does that even mean?

The Daily Scaremonger Mail? This is the same paper that has had the headlines "Danger: Jam Sponge" and "Beware The Swan"? Yeah, I wouldn't pay attention to anything they have to say...

Danger: Jam Sponge is the best headline ever. I realize it wasn't intended as humor, and is therefore terrifying, but I'm adding it to my list of things to name my journal someday.

It was an article about how the Women's Institute were taking contaminated cakes into hospitals. Clearly, they're terrorists.
