The day I finally went completely off Mister Chip on Twitter (having thought he seemed a bit of a dick for quite some time before that) was when Diego Godín scored in the European Cup final and Señor Potato tweeted that he was the first Uruguayan to do so, then clarified that 'I'm not counting Schiaffino as Uruguayan because he was Italian by the time he scored in a European Cup final.'
The number of people who don't understand passports of convenience (or who think that as soon as one passport is taken, any previous nationality based on birth, parentage, life lived up to that point - you know, who a person actually is - ceases to apply) never fails to irritate me.
