With all this talk of smugness, I think it's time for us all to admit to the smug scamp hiding somewhere deep within us.

As I'm not (yet) a famous *cough cough* celebrity, I can't display my intense smugness parading around a dancefloor at the BBC every Saturday. Instead I get my smug kicks when I walk outside in the rain armed with an umbrella and see all the poor sods who have forgotten theirs. I give them the most smug smile imaginable.

How do you get your smug kicks?

I smiled smugly when David Cameron accused Gordon Brown of being smug at Prime Minister's questions this week.

....said the Right Honourable Pot to the Right Honourable Kettle.

I convey my smugness in the realm of cyberspace using the power of smilies:

I'm feeling smug cos I managed to keep a stoically manly expression going this afternoon while I was having a tooth pulled The dental nurse was well impressed but little did she know I nearly wet myself on the way up there and almost ran away when I got to the dentist's chair

Ah, but is that smilie as smug as this one?



Or even this one?

:yawn::yawn::yawn:

And don't even get me started on this one...



OMG! All the smilies are so smug!

for the truly smug, the opportunities are endless

the smug commuter

watching those poor non commuters trying to figure out the ticket machine before you smugly step in and show them how it's done

smugly standing at the exact right spot where the doors open so you get a seat. then you can sit smugly and watch them stand all the way to waterloo

smugly standing on the right side of the escalator and watching the unitiated stand on the left hand side and get told off OR to vary the smugness, smugly walking down the left hands side demonstrating that you're not the kind of lazy person who would stand on an escalator

and that's before you even get to work

I vote this smilie ----> to be the smugiest. Is that a word? Nope. I meant smugest, not smugiest. I need to go back to primary school!

Just got myself a winter's worth of Oak logs from the railway foresters - for free. And my neighbour reckoned they wouldn't let me have any, he said I was wasting my time.

Oh, I'm am bathing in glorious smugness right now.
He's such a righteous old s*d
