These persons, I suppose, pay their taxes (just), feed their fish (maybe), been through puberty (just, perhaps); but come out of their education process to wilfully fritter our money and our lives away whilst they dissipate and squander the resources of this planet making the most ridiculous, gelastic, trumped up, over hyped, goofy crap in the whole wide world.</p> <p>These designers, and the companies they work for, are the decay of human society. They are the knurled faeces covered hair on the capacious discharging yellow pimple on the zit on the wart on the polyp on the boil on the anus of society and I hate them. &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.stephenfry.com/bb-content/plugins//bb-smilies/default/icon_twisted.gif&quot; title=&quot;:twisted:&quot; class=&quot;bb_smilies&quot; /&gt; </p> <p>I’m reminded of the scene from Douglas Adams Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy – shuffle all these ignominious, puss spewing, snot covered wastrels into a box and fire them off into deep space.</p> <p>There, I feel much better now &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.stephenfry.com/bb-content/plugins//bb-smilies/default/icon_mrgreen.gif&quot; title=&quot;:mrgreen:&quot; class=&quot;bb_smilies&quot; /&gt; </p>
