I ask myself, what the fuck is wrong with people?

No doubt these are the same fuckwits with spare rooms full of toilet roll.

Can we open up an island and send everyone there to continue their parties and gatherings perhaps?

We've always had some dumb and irresponsible people at one end of the curve who have to be carried by the rest, but now we're just hearing more about them so it's probably not as common as it seems.

On the other hand many people - even on here - think it's a source of pride to be an idiot. Lots of boasting that they are too independent to follow laws intended to make them safe. I hope there are enough Darwin Award certificates to go around.

I also read about 1000 parties being broken up around Manchester alone. Hard to think it’s not that common with those figures!

I’d usually just leave them to it if they’re not bothering anyone else, but their actions have implications for all of us and that’s really what makes it so extraordinarily disgraceful.
