Outrage!
There's been a lot of terror porn around lately; endless programmes on the tv about how we're all going to die the next time we go anywhere near London, newspaper articles about how we are turning into an Islamic state which use the term Londinistan un-ironically, and radio talk shows where people are allowed to phone in and explain just how fucking scared they are of people with rucksacks.Given the idiotic views splashed carte blanche all over the newspapers right now, there's one story that I'm surprised has not triggered faux outrage in the likes of the Daily Mail, and that's how Scottish Opera is not only showing a production of an opera about Palestinian terrorism (gasp) at this "sensitive time"(tm) but that the chorus will be hidden amongst the audience and at one point will burst forth brandishing machine guns and rush the stage. A dramatic act that, while being undeniably tacky, will hopefully shit-up some unsuspecting audience members. I'm all for shitting-up audiences. It amuses me. Not enough shitting-up of audiences happening right now in my opinion.
