Asymptosis

Responding to a U.K. tax on bank bonuses:

“This is extreme victimisation,” said one senior investment banker. “A lot of people have been working their tails off, never seeing their families to try and fix the problems of the past and now they are being discriminated against. It just makes me want to quit the job.”

So that’s it! They do all that work for us! To solve the problems of the past! They’re so generous, so self-denying. They deserve those bonuses! How can we be so churlish? Somebody call the EEOC.

Human beings will never cease to amaze me.
