Today's peeve

People using the word "Britain" instead of "Briton", as in "his fellow Britains had this to say...".

On two separate bloody BRITISH websites so far this week. That I've noticed.

I despair.

Drat.

Headlines to get your hopes up, waaaayyyy up: BBC to show comedy via broadband.

A reading of the actual article reveals the sad truth: "BBC to trial ONE crap comedy show you've never heard of and wouldn't want to watch, on broadband because even with like seven TV channels they can't justify kicking anything else off air to make room for this dog".

Sigh. *pines for proper British TV*
