Franny Armstrong

Franny, as you may or may not know is the veritable fool that put together that horrendous video for "Campaign 1010" where they're blowing people up.

Now, I did not read the article above, I just looked at her picture and I think it's once again time to play....

"What Can the Captain Guess?"

Given what we know about the disease known as Crusaderism (yes, watch the whole damn thing, just pour yourself a martini first) and young Ms. Franny is obviously infected by it, I shall go out on a limb and predict;

1. She majored in a worthless subject
2. She has little to no real world or private sector experience
3. Her entire career is constituted of activism which is just a euphemism for avoiding real work
4. She is from a family that is not poor, probably well off to the point she could pursue such lofty and arrogant endeavors as to tell the rest of us how to live our lives.

Am I right?

Cap, thats like predicting the sun will rise tomorrow morning. my personal assessment, after watching her picture, is that she never got laid.
from wikipedia:
"On 2 November 2009, Armstrong was threatened in the streets of north London by three girls whom she described as looking "like something straight out of central casting". They pushed her against a car and pulled out an iron bar. She cried for help and was rescued by Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, who was cycling by. He chased off the attackers and then insisted on escorting Armstrong home. During this 20-minute journey, she suggested that he adopt the 10:10 policy for the tube and that he pedestrianise Camden Town. He replied that he wanted to pedestrianise areas across London.[8]

She thanked him with a 10:10 badge and a copy of Age of Stupid. When interviewed afterwards, she praised him as her "knight on a shining bicycle". Politically, she still preferred his predecessor Ken Livingstone, for whom she had campaigned but allowed that "If you find yourself down a dark alleyway and in trouble I think Boris would be of more use than Ken"

What is it with these people? They are doing their best to play Dodge Ball! Once again I click on the link and once again the page is not available.

So I googled her name and found the link below which tells me all I need to know about Tinkerbell in the first 3 paragraphs. I especially like the part about great organizations not existing to make money - which is fortunate for her because when she squanders Daddy's fortune on this loser enterprise she can still feel good about herself!

What a sad and ultimately meaningless life.

What will happen to this woman when the realization dawns on her that:
1. Her life spent trying to get humans to act against their nature was a futile task
-and-
2. Her goals (especially a 10% reduction) are so incredibly insignificant they might as well be meaningless.

I will bet the "bright energetic" staff she has running around the office come and go on a regular basis as they realize activism is not going to pay the bills. The longer Franny insists on ignoring that simple fact, the harder the crash is going to be when it happens.

Here's her wikipedia page:

1) A degree in zoology. Maybe useless, but it is better than woman's studies/sociology/etc.
2) Certainly possible that she hasn't worked in a productive industry. Her first documentary was in '97, when she was 25. Not much time between college graduation and film making to fit in a period in the for-profit sector.
3) Yeah, total activist.
4) No information points to this, but I'd bet that she has some connections to wealth. Film making is time-consuming and expensive. The money has to come from somewhere. Willing to suspend judgment at this time.

" She spent most of her 20s making her first film, McLibel, a passionate documentary about the attempt by McDonald's to sue two penniless activists"


'Nuff Said


Oh, and she was a zoology major at the time. She switched out of that to film making. She likely graduated at 25.

Can we explode her like she wants to croak everyone who disagrees with her.

A zoology major?

I'd say more like a zoological experiment.


What an ugly woman - ugliness and liberalism are highly correlated in chicks.

That Zoology part is meaningless:

"Are Humans suicidal"?????

What kind of crap is that?

How did the university allow such a Thesis? Did she actually get a degree out of it or did she just "Study" zoology?

That really reflects more on general state of affairs as well...
