Drugs: Can't fuckin' stand 'em, principally because people on them wind me up something rotten. There's a social argument that I have on and off with raggedhalo, but it's too long for me really to type out again here.
Clothing: Sweatshop labour clothes were one of the things I was going to put on the list but couldn't think of a neat one-or-two word synopsis for them. I covered sweatshop labour in Vietnam about 4 or 5 months ago here and had a good old ding-dong with the usual suspects who try and argue the lefty economic POV at me.
Hunting: My sister rides to hounds and I follow the hunt. Just because something was on the list don't mean I'm against it. Other peoples prejudices are my interest, because most people don't think about what they believe - they just receive the wisdom and act as if it's true because it's what all their mates think too.
Democracy: I'm with Churchill on Democracy - worst form of Govt, exceptiong all the others. The Australians seem to have got it about right.
