"* Of course having guests in your house is terrible but there's nothing worse than when you're a guest in someone else's house. You've only been there for four weeks and they're dropping not so subtle hints, such as moving their screaming baby back in your room, that you should go. They should be happy to have you! You're a great guest! You're polite, considerate, you don't complain about how awful the food is or how little effort obviously goes into making it as though they don't care that you're there! That you have the courtesy to bestow your shining presence upon your hosts' puny, unworthy home in return for just a few weeks of doing absolutely nothing in the midst of your overwrought existence. You even have the kindness to stay up well into the evening with them, amusing them with your jokes, giving them advice on the best evening television. I mean really, if it weren't for you they'd be rotting their already atrophying minds with Coronation Street for God's sake! But after about a month of sheer, habitual rudeness on the part of your hosts, you decide to leave because you can't put up with it anymore. Some people just have no sense of social graces." I found this under "real life" examples. Does this even belong there?

I think it's an example of a Self-Demonstrating Article. It's quite funny. I think I'll put it back in and see if anyone minds.
