The Hypocrite Awards (part 2)

I'm not a hypocrite or anything, but people who start sentences with 'I'm not a hypocrite or anything,' really annoy me!

On a related note, this week the Charles Fudgemuffin blog highlights another batch of some of the many hypocrites found in the world.

1) Hypocritical run

Here's a mini marathon where the organisers are encouraging people to 'run for gender equality'.

If you're interested in entering, the men's race is 10 km, and the women's race is 5 km.

2) Hypocritical sign

At first glance, the following sign offers good advice.

"Give cyclists space."

However, I couldn't help noticing that the sign is blocking the cycle lane. This looks like a clear case of 'Do as I say, not as I do.'

3) Hypocritical software

Why do Zoom have offices?

If you'd like to contact Zoom, then their offices are located in San Jose, California. Or alternatively, just use Zoom!

4) The Associated Hypocrites

The list of ridiculous words which offends people seems to grow every year, and it reached an all-time high for ridiculousness when the Associated Press decided that the word 'the' was offensive.

"So then why do you call yourself "The" Associated Press?"

 Just to reiterate, 'The' Associated Press decided that the word 'the' was dehumanizing.

5) Hypocritical printer

Please don't waste printer ink.

For example, by printing a message on a multi-coloured background.

6) Hypocritical hypocrite

Finally, Bernie Sanders recently published a book entitled, 'It's Okay To Be Angry At Capitalism'.

If you'd like to buy it, it's available in hard cover and paperback priced at $22.40 and $20!

Editor's note: "Shouldn't the book be called, "How to Use Capitalism to Get Rich, by Complaining About People Using Capitalism"?
Charles: "I suppose so, but then gullible fools wouldn't buy the book."
Editor: "Fair point."

I'm sure you'll agree that all of our hypocritical winners were worthy wonners, but who did you think was the biggest hypocrite of all. Who would get your vote for the overall hypocrite winner?
