The nasty euro
Seen the euros? They are ugly, gross, and I hate the fact that Europe is linked into the Hive-Mind, I mean money. Maybe it's because I always liked the exchange rate when I went to Europe before the euro, but I didn't like to use them in December. There's something subatomically wrong with the concept. So I'm very glad that Chancellor Brown in the UK has decided that Britain isn't ready for it. I don't care that the pound is 60% more than the dollar; London just wouldn't be the same with an... an... *ugh* euro. I wouldn't go as far as stating that it is communistic, as my friend in London believes :), but then, there is a certain quality of borg-likeness to the whole thing. Here's the London viewpoint as well.
