Big up all the slack arseholes on the Sinister list! J.D. Salinger wrote: "All this village malarkey reminds me of an experiment formulated by top fop poets Worsdworth and Coleridge in, oh, about 1540 probably. They decided, little poetic scamps that they were, to up-sticks to America and start a new life in a simple self-sustaining village community: ...As it happens, they only got as far as Wales, where they lived off the land for about 3 hours before giving up ("Sod this for a game of soldiers, Mr Wordsworth. Let's get lashed"). & I thought to myself, he must mean Coleridge & Southey, who laid plans to form 'Pantisocracy' in Pennsylvania during the 1790's. That'll be me for the village pedant, then, an activity I can subsidise from my sales of infra-red binoculars to the Sini-pervs from my stall down by the lake.
