Today on Twitter I noticed that trans activist Juliet Jacques was speaking at a meeting of a group called The T Party. My initial reaction was one of embarrassment that a trans group should have a name so similar to that of those people. However, Juliet explained that the name was something of a joke, and I began to see the comedy potential in it. Because, you know, people could get confused.

Just suppose that Sarah Palin was addressing a Tea Party rally in Washington, when all of a sudden the Westbro Baptist mob turn up under the impression that they are picketing a group of trans rights activists. I feel that The Onion could do something with this.

I suppose I could do the fashionable thing and auction my story idea on eBay, but it is a bit late for that as I have told it to you now. Apologies if anyone loses their coffee as a result.
