‘I don’t want to share philosophical meditations about life on Earth. I’m always asking: What do I feel about this? Why doI feel like this? What do I do if I don’t want to feel like this? How do I make it go away? You could say to yourself: Well, I must develop more mature reactions to this feeling. Or you think: I could just burn this thing to the ground. And a lot of us want to do the latter. Plus, I think angry people are funny. I always have. What’s funny about anger is that you’ve basically got somebody saying, in a spoilt voice: “I want the biscuit!” However, the irony is, their behavior is guaranteed to keep them many miles away from the nearest available biscuit. And they can’t see that. They are the ones putting a glass box around the biscuit, putting it into a safe, then throwing the safe into the sea and swimming in the opposite direction. I love watching that. It’s a glimpse of what it means to be human – that with so much reason and speculation and amazing social structures, humans can still fall victim to this.’ Dylan Moran I conclude
