Sorry - it's just incoherence at discovering that Margaret Thatcher wrote fanfic. 'Yes Minister' fanfic.

It's absolutely dreadful, though not in a particularly interesting way (No slash, MPREG or anything like that - just economist bashing, and she gets Humphrey's degree crashingly wrong, so LOL NOOB. Also, it's not actually funny)†. But still. Thatcher. Fanfic. Fanfic. Thatcher.

I think my brain just broke.

†Proving that there's no justice in the world, it was actually made.

That was my opening to Bernard the Thesis. ^_^

(IIRC, the skit was actually written by Cabinet Secretary Sir Robin Butler and Press Secretary Bernard Ingham. But Thatcher still performed it, so does that make her the ultimate self-insert?)
