MGM·Lion	Queen's 90th (114* d)	RE: Queen's 90th	13 Jun 16
"That's not envy - it's justifiable resentment." .,,. Indeed a very tenable pov, Jim; but we happen to perceive the same phenomenon a bit differently. A bit like those old 'irregular verbs' they used to ask for in New Statesman competitions & so on -- I think I won one for such a verb once: things like 'I am firm. You are obstinate. He is a pig-headed idiot.' So in our present instance 'I justifiably resent unearned privilege. You think you have as good a right to respect. He is green with envy.' Wish I actually had this 'silver spoon' you keep saddling me with btw! ≈M≈
