SACRED COWS


Dith Pran	Heroic journalist and survivor of Cambodia's disgusting Khmer Rouge regime, Pran's story was brought to life in the Oscar winning film 'The Killing Fields'. If you ever have contempt for celebs going into rehab for their dead puppy or ever feel you might work too hard, thank people like Pran that we know what it's really like to live in a world of starvation and torture. RIP and saved many lives. How many can you say that about?

		DKP4 on Mon 31 March 2008 said... The Khmer Rouge weren't so bad.
		MrsMoon on Mon 31 March 2008 said... You have just reminded me of the end of The Killing Fields, and i am blubbing like a baby...
		MrsMoon on Mon 31 March 2008 said... ..or am i clinically depressed?
		kwebb on Mon 31 March 2008 said... Spare a thought for poor me. I went in the shop last night. Disaster scenario - they'd sold out of Frazzles. I sobbed for at least an hour.
		bystander on Mon 31 March 2008 said... Cambodians always moaning about a lost hour here or there, they don't know they are born.
		GayBowelSyndrome on Mon 31 March 2008 said... Lay off the Gin MrsMoon, for a few nights anyway, at least until your period is over...
		GayBowelSyndrome on Mon 31 March 2008 said... I'm also reminded that we had some "boat people" come and live around the corner from us when I was a kid. The girl, who was about year or two younger than me turned out to be a right goer.
		SaleoftheCentury on Mon 31 March 2008 said... sorry to be pedantic, ahh fuck it, a pedant am I but the "boat people" came from Vietnam, not Cambodia. lol
		Beeker on Mon 31 March 2008 said... the head of the Khemer Rouge didn't he go on to win the first series of Britains Got Talent? a singer, terrible teeth a bit unsavoury looking
		kwebb on Mon 31 March 2008 said... That's him! 'Pol' Potts from The Mumbles. There's lovely - isn't it.
		Geushky on Mon 31 March 2008 said... HM Fact Fans: Dith Pran's character in the Killing Fields was played by Haing Ngor (also a survivor of the Khmer Rouge) who was subsequently murdered during a robbery whilst living the 'American Dream'. sighs
		everblazin on Mon 31 March 2008 said... After reading this eulogy...i think i'm gonna stab robbie williams to even the karmic balance. One dead cunt to balance one dead hero.
		MrsMoon on Mon 31 March 2008 said... Pol Pot won Britains Got Talent? We're too liberal in this country by a long chalk...
		Geushky on Mon 31 March 2008 said... Can we still say 'chalk'?
		kwebb on Mon 31 March 2008 said... "Britains Got Diabetes, Asthma, More Teenage Pregnancy Than Anyone Else, And Is Full Of Plebs." And it's all down to Paul Fucking Potts I reckon...
		ClimeySunt on Mon 31 March 2008 said... Pol pot was fucking ace at keeping order, makes you proud to be british whatever the fuck that has to with anything
		stun on Tue 01 April 2008 said... So fucking what he saved all those zipperheads? I switched off my bathroom light yesterday and had a spine-shattering shit in the dark and saved one trillion penguins. Or summat. When I croak, is anyone gonna come on here and fluff my corpse up? Fucking hope not.
		stun on Tue 01 April 2008 said... Oh, and to add to the above, the missus was having a cold bath at the time. She heard every splatter and pop as I let go a roughly a hundredweight of wet soil. I have to confess that it took seven presses of the big flush button to get the fucker going and I had to set fire to a bathtowel to get rid of the smell, mainly because I'd put sixty shit-tickets down first as padding to prevent my arsehole getting prewashed by piss and water first.
		Geushky on Tue 01 April 2008 said... Stun: Oh how I've missed you...
		Barbersmith on Tue 01 April 2008 said... I've stopped reading the obituary pages in the paper, I just read this section. But this chap was divorced - so he can't have been all good. Probably a little too ready with his fists.
		kwebb on Tue 01 April 2008 said... I've just had a Pol Pot Noodle.
		MrsMoon on Tue 01 April 2008 said... Stun, your work in akin to poetry...just beautiful.
		Geushky on Tue 01 April 2008 said... Dith Pran was a fat-handed twat.
		Absolutmod on Thu 03 April 2008 said... I'm getting my mum a Pol Pot plant for her birthday.
