THE BOOK OF BLOODY
BRITS
OTHERWISE KNOWN AS THE BOOK OF THE WHITE MAN’S BURDEN
The Brits invent fairness
Chapter 9
In fact, the Brits had pretty well decided that they should rule the world even before the Renaissance,
2jWhich is when everybody else got the idea,
3kBecause they had already figured out that practically everybody else had a nicer climate to live in,
4Which wasn’t fair,
5And nobody has ever cared more about fairness than the Brits,
6Although they have a slightly different definition of fairness than anybody else does,
7Namely, that fairness consists of recognizing that Brits have good and sufficient reasons for doing what they do,
8lAlthough it’s never fair to ask what they are.
