No food in the house this morning, so I got up early and went to the supermarket. On the way home a TV crew stuck a camera in my face and asked what Easter meant to me.
What I meant to say: "It's a classic example of a pagan fertility festival being co-opted by Christianity, then being co-opted again by consumerism. Basically, it's sex and chocolate via the Crucifixtion."
What I actually said: "Uh... not much."
Well, you trying being all clever and witty at 10am on a Sunday morning when you haven't even had breakfast yet.
