Apparently I'm An Illiterate, Slack-Jawed Yokel, And No One Told Me?

Is it wrong that I want to change my citizenship just so that I can use this icon?

I would also not have to endure this on the news reports:

-"The British authorites seem to have all suspect terror groups well in hand, and are conducting a thorough investigation . . ."
-"Well, yes. BUT. The British authorities are clearly wrong/stupid/ill-informed since they didn't ask me to analyze the situation for them. [lame rhetoric wherein many key meaningless phrases are repeated]"

And variants on this:

"Attacks on the London Underground Metro system, THE SUBWAY *hemhem* --"

STOP IT. YOU CONFUSE ME. WHERE DID THEY PUT THE BOMBS?

. . .

(It's called a tube station, for fuck's sake. CALL IT A TUBE STATION. (Or will the FCC fine them for that?))

*smites news media*

the world is scary, london, public broadcasting
