    It's one thing to contribute, it's quite another to publicise one's generosity, which makes me think it's nothing of the sort.

    This is narcism.
    I am quite a looker even if I do say so myself.

      Being modest about one's generosity is a relatively recent idea - back in the Renaissance it was absolutely the done thing to boast about what you did for others - the idea being it would shorten your time in purgatory.

        I had to cross Park Row in Leeds five times last Friday to avoid the beggars. One's even got two dogs. Isn't their a second dog tax or something for poor people?

          It's quite rich for a contractor to point out the moot in another's eyes. Least I pay proper taxes to support the economy.

            I sometimes let the hairdresser keep the £2 change from my tenner. All things are relative and, when you consider how mean I am, it is me who is the more generous.

              No, it's worse than that! It's narcissism!

                Maybe Scooter was implying that MF is some sort of informant for the DEA.
