Every time I read the local paper, I generally read:

"This house was broken into."
"This car was smashed. £#### worth of goods was stolen."
"There was a crash here."
"We are the local council and we're making yet another stupid building plan that'll crush more green spaces and will ruin the area even further."
"This area was vandalised."
"Some dude was stabbed yesterday."
"This school is running a charity event. Here's a mid-page spread with photos of kids painting pictures."
"We've run out of news. This is a report on a cat that got stuck up a tree."

Every. Day.

Same. Drudge.

And it pisses me miles and miles of off.

I'm not even gonna mention the letter's section. People are so narrow and stupid here.

Well okay, there was once this letter written by a guy who associated the local college logo with buskers because it looks a bit like a guitar plectrum.

And there's a bunch of other people who think that building a useless road (everyone else has proved that the plans are useless, stupidly expensive, and wouldn't do a smegging thing to ease congestion) over the most significant and best-preserved anglo-saxon burial site ever to be found is a really brillant idea.

Parts of Essex are really nice, but why, WHY do people here have to be so goddamned stupid? Gaugh.
