And while I'm on the subject I think it's marvelous that the spirit of Mary Whitehouse lives on. That lovely bunch of people over at One Million Moms want to ban the current version of the Muppets because it's "promoting interspecies romance and promiscuity".
You couldn't make it up.
In the interests of accuracy One Million Moms actually have around three thousand twitter followers while Kermit (who, for the hard of thinking, is a puppet) has more than seventy six thousand.
Would you like to hear my conspiracy theory?
I think they are actually a
secret advertising agency. Anything at all that they want to ban, I
want to see. A Million Billboards couldn't be more effective
publicity.
In another campaign it was nice of them to bring to my attention the bizarre series "Black Jesus" of which I had previously been unaware. Thanks 1MM!
