    Philatelists are bad people.

    I agree. They should be stamped down.
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    There is no need to go postal on them.

    I agree. They need a good licking. Only go postal on the mail of the species though, otherwise the whole package might feel PO'd and Boxed in.

    Leftists, fascists, communists are only thought of as "bad" by people who don't think that they are "good" (funnily enough).

    Once more, all lists are OK. Philatelists shouldn't be dispatched.

    It's enough to make a postman cancel his holiday.

    Well, Banquo's Ghost's antedated view of philatelists is more than a notch below the watermark and shouldn't be rubber-stamped post-haste.

    Dentists are clearly evil. Is it safe?
