All seems a bit eye-swivelling from a quick glance. As somebody who wouldn't want to pay much more for a load of old Murdocks instead, I'm not convinced by the resist the fascist/communist/ delete as appropriate BBC lot. Especially since so many write for the Tory Press.
Can't really disagree with you on that. Like so much else on Webside Gleanings, this item was included for its interest value, not because it's my own view.
What three otherwise sensible people have said about Webside Gleanings
It is a treasurehouse of the bizarre and the offbeat, and it could quite easily eat up 30-60 minutes of your day every day unless you approach it with caution. So - be cautious, be self-disciplined, but do go and have a look. It's a gem.
A charming compendium of the amusing, irritating and obscene, often in the same link. Its cross-eyed editor is an unsung genius who provides a happy meeting place on the net for the disillusioned, the slightly sociopathic, and people with a laptop who have a long time to wait for their train. A familiarity with the more arcane reaches of Church history may help the reader with the less obvious jokes.
It's like wandering into an emporium with lots of choice trinkets and ornaments that you never knew existed and would look just lovely on the mantelpiece.
Not only is it difficult to know the truth about anything, but to tell the truth when one knows it, to find words that will not obscure or pervert it, is in my experience an exhausting effort.
