I remember when I was a kid, my dad disliked people who play mahjong. Someone told him about how a son continued to finish with the game after he was informed that his dad had died.
To add to his displeasure of the game, the father-in-law of my eldest brother (who was too fond of mahjong) once told my dad that those who cannot play mahjong are stupid!
Anyway, people who are obsessed with certain games can be insensitive…a joke from Drive magazine published by AAM:
Tommy got home from his Sunday round of golf later than normal and very tired.
“Bad day at the golf course?” his wife asked.
“Everything was going fine,” he said. “Then Jimmy had a heart attack and died on the 10th hole.”
“Oh that’s awful!”
“For the whole back nine it was hit the ball, drag Jimmy, hit the ball, drag Jimmy.”
How should we judge a government?

"If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." - Malcolm X
Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience - Mark Twain
Why we should be against censorship in a court of law: Publicity is the very soul of justice … it keeps the judge himself, while trying, under trial. - Jeremy Bentham
"Our government is like a baby's alimentary canal, with a happy appetite at one end and no
responsibility at the other. " - Ronald Reagan
