The latest fan mail comes from long time reader Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe who writes: "so that’s your idea of hypocrisy? I don’t think you know what a hypocrite is…"
Mr. Mugabe is responding in respect of TV Critics, Lawsuits and Hypocrisy at Fernbrook Resort Freelton over Mini-Series.
Let’s elaborate.
Citizens of Fernbrook Resort complain. In fact they complain so much that the number one reason for a staff member to depart Fernbrook Resort’s employ is because of the constant non-stop stream of complaints. It is very rare for a staff member to last longer than three years at Fernbrook. And those that do stay longer than three years, it’s only because they’re buried here.
But worse is what the citizens complain about. Because they don’t complain over normal things. Like the constant smell of homegrown pharmaceuticals wafting in the air. Or inebriated children driving golf carts while blind-folded. Or other serious issues. No. They have other more important things on their minds. Things like:
- the tapwater being a mite too cold
- the grass being too green
- that my neighbor has more potholes than I do
- about why everyone on Coronation Street speaks with an English accent
- and about their stool being excessively hard and a tad gritty
Yeah, the citizens of the Fernbrook nation complain over things that nothing but a good over the counter stool-softener might help.
And that, Mr Mugabe of Zimbabwe is where the hypocrisy comes in.
The citizens of Fernbrook complain over things that are more than a bit silly. And even if they weren’t silly… well the staff can’t change them. Yet complain over something that isn’t silly and something that could be changed, like the flinging of dog feces or vandalism or theft, and the citizens of Fernbrook have something else to complain about.
But they don’t join in and complain over the flinging of dog feces or vandalism or thefts.
Nope.
The folks of Fernbrook complain that you’re complaining. And they complain that such complaints are embarrassing them and the fallen Nation of Fernbrook Resort.
And that Mr Mugabe of Zimbabwe is hypocrisy.
Cock-a-doodle-don’t do as we do just do as we say.
PS – as honoured as we are by your presence Mr. Mugabe, perhaps you should spend more time working on solving your nation’s political and economic woes and less time surfing the internet.
