January 2011- Dim posh former intern illegally advertises for a (below minumum wage) intern.
April 2011- Dim posh former intern denounces system of internships.
Dim posh former intern is of course a beneficiary of internships.
* The parody horizon is when a piece is impossible to parody because the parody would be indistinguishable from the original.
I'd assume that once you cross the parody horizon, you reach actual parody singularity, a place devoid of logic from which no fact can escape.
ReplyDeleteThere are many things LP could be criticised for - but why resort to sexist sneers?
ReplyDeleteSarah- I take your point.
ReplyDeleteThe explanation is that I used the the sexist phrase- "posh bird"- because:
- I felt that it made my post sound more dismissive of her, which is what I wanted.
- I've been watching too much "Ashes to Ashes"
But you are quite right to pick me up on it. I'll edit the post accordingly.
Thanks Ross. I don't think she's dim either - though that's obviously just a matter of opinion, and she's certainly sometimes very annoying.
ReplyDeleteNot dim, in that she's getting exactly what she wants out of life, as a far more perceptive woman has noted.
ReplyDeleteWell she pontificates confidently on subjects where she has little or no understanding of the issues involved so the way I see it she is either:
ReplyDelete- Dim
- Playing a role for attention.
- So narcissistic that she doesn't feel she needs to understand something to feel very strongly about it.
Of these assuming she's dim is the kindest interpretation.
