Announcers are all the same...

Postby matmat » Fri Jun 25, 2004 2:23 pm

there is a televised car chase right now. The driver is possibly armed, has broken numerous traffic laws (surprise!!!) and is being chased after making his getaway from an armed robbery. The TV announcers, however, continue to call him a gentleman... argghhhh.... just call him a man, a suspect... what's next? calling him a saint?
Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day, teach a man to fish and he'll drown because you forgot to teach him to swim.

Yes doctor, I am sick.
Sick of those who are spineless.
Sick of those who feel self-entitled.
Sick of those who are hypocrites.
Yes doctor, an army is forming.

If they watched NYPD Blue they'd know enough to refer to him as dirtbag or scumbag or even perp (I kinda like sh*trat myself)
