Resentful Misery AKA Twit
If misery no longer existed, I sometimes wonder what some people would do with their lives. Despair is the tool of the devil, and a particular disciple of despair named Jan Egesborg has dedicated his life as an artist to dealing with the misery of world the only way he knows how–by spreading it. The idea behind Surrend.org, his website, is to make fun of the world’s powerful men and crazy ideological conflicts by using the street as it’s exhibition space with stickers and posters to express themselves. His latest project was created specifically for the Polish speaking Catholics as he slandered John Paul II by placing him in hell with notorious Nazi’s. Egesborg commented that the initial response from Poles has been a strong reaction to his “satirical” webpage, “for Poles it is just as controversial as the Mohamed cartoon was for Muslims,” he said.
Based on his exploitation of real victims of repression and abuse, this guy revels in his own vain glory while at the same time he redistributes his own anger and resentment on to those whom he despises. Join us in congratulating Jan as today’s C-L-S Misery Loves Company poster child.

I married a Pole…
That twit better hope he never gets within range of one of the “irritated Polish” he speaks of. He’ll survive, but he will wish he had not.

Shelray, I thought “twit” was just right for a title.
My husband is a Catholic who is both 1/2 Polish and 1/2 Persian. He’d joked that old Jan wouldn’t be so thrilled to see how they’d respond to him in Iran if he tried making fun of Mohommed like he has JPII. Of course, he wouldn’t survive that.
