Look away now if you’re easily offended

I didn’t realise I was this powerful- I think by adding a caption to the picture above I’ve instantly offended millions of people- hooray! I try so hard to try and offend say, Charlie, yet I could have made less effort for far more results.
I think what annoys me most about this whole fiasco is that the cartoon that everyone’s offended by is terrible. If you see the actual thing, you’ll see that its not funny and looks a bit offensive- implying that all muslims are suicide bombers or something. This is infinately more offensive than “oh no, an illustration of a human who you could probably have a bit of a guess about how he looked”. I mean, unless he had no nose or something- but that’d probably be mentioned somewhere in the Koran as it’s quite important. Terrible!
Tomorrow my guest will be Chairman Mao, and I’ll be trying to offend my Chinese readers.
