What do they mean by diverse guests? What is a diverse guest? Does it mean that drunks as well as sober people will be invited on as guests, because I haven't seen many drunk people being interviewed on the TV, not since George Best.
Also there's a real lack of smack heads giving their opinions on the World. More smack heads needed to fill the diversity quarters. Ok, I jest. I know that diversity is just racism and means less White people. |
