now we bloggers are grumblestiltskin

oh great! after being labeled as liars and one who dislike national unity, now we have another not so famous person (but still a famous name) person heaping labels on us.

"The local blogosphere is the domain of life-challenged grumblestiltskins and disenfranchised pundits whose asinine maunderings only show why they should never have had day jobs in the first place.

"Rumour, inuendo, half-truths and damned lies are their stock-in-trade, and previously sacrosanct standards, principles and ethics are now laughable.

"Are they not entitled to their opinion? Of course they are, as much as everyone is entitled to ignore them. I would venture, however, that everyone has an opinion and a rectum, and not that many seem capable of telling one from the other."

this came from journalist, rehman rashid. you can read his full article in the NST online. no, i did not came across his article from NST (i don’t read that new shit times, see) but came to know of it via rocky’s bru blog.

oh well, since he is not a minister in the government, his opinion doesn’t really matter, as after all, yes, rehman rashid has a rectum too. i’m bringing this up because i was amused by his reference of bloggers. the ‘powderful’ engrish, the names… oh the rectum. :)susan loone had taken upon herself to translate rehman’s powderful engrish for us here.
