Thread Name: BS: Looks like Paul McCartney...
Subject: RE: BS: Looks like Paul McCartney...
McCartney and Mills have been subjected to a torrent of bitching in the Brit press. If certain mudcatters need to add to that, I suppose they have every entitlement. For most of my seven years here, Mudcat was an interesting forum, so I shouldn't complain. But I do find it hard to stomach Desdemona and Giok rebranding their bitchiness as the high watermark of British humour.

Perhaps they haven't noticed, but money is not the biggest thing in McCartney's life. He sent his kids to state schools and he seems perfectly happy for Heather to have a couple of hundred million. What a peculiar attitude, the cash-obsessed must think.

Bruce Baillie:

If you think there's any merit in disabled people wanting to be treated as human beings, try to move on from the "we" and "them" mindset, in which "we" equals normal people like you, and "them" equals those who fail your normality test.
