Translation: Curtis is fully entitled to express his perspective, but if Judy does so and it happens to be different from Curtis's, she's to be put down for "shaming" him. Curtis, of course, *never* tries to shame anybody... he would never tell anybody, for instance, that what they've said to him was "shitty." > Judy: > > No matter *how* much contempt one has for a person, > > and even if that contempt were completely justified, > > one doesn't mock his death, > > me: > Yeah, one does.

It's only the Brits who use the term "class," right, Curtis? Nobody *ever* uses the term except to refer to social status, right? You betcha! "OTOH the classy move would have been for Palin to step up and say that she knows he didn't mean it that way." "I did think Matt was a very classy winner." Etc. Gettin' a little hard up, are ya, hon?
