Bletch - an awesome read of considered argument and correct punctuation of genitive collectives. BTF - a passionate response of heartfelt frustration. It's nearly two years since I left UK, I do wonder in another two years if I'd be let back in! I just think the place may be run by Dunists. I consider him to be an intelligent and erudite person, but I suspect he may be propelled into a postiion of power and obliged to execute Deppo in order to satisfy his cronies. Could happen!

So in times of spending cuts and job losses left right and centre..
tpbury replied to LGTL's topic in The Lounge
Blimey, this looks like a thread filled with thoughtful and well considered and educational posts. Well done guys, I am learning, though can't contribute due to lack of knowledge. From personal experience, making friends with your perceived enemy works better than pursuing the enmity over years. -
Anyone getting up early to watch the Charlton Match on some stream or other?

The right arm does look like it's been done by the original Ted Bates statue mongerer. May be the perspective. Anyway, it will have bog rolls, condoms, beer bottles, bird **** all over it shortly no doubt. -
Well, I imagine Deppo and BTF are working through some issues right now, possibly involving Om and heavy breathing. They may both be weeping tears of release. Who's to know? Fact remains there are more than two intrasigents on this thread who are winding up owners of kids. I don't know whether they are survivalist types ('keep'em in the pound!') or just blummin so perfectly in control of their lives that getting kids to school/nursery is not a problem at all - if so, send me the manual. Or else,perhaps you don't have kids. There was a time when I didn't have children - it was the first thirty years of my life. During those years I didn't start hating people with children, or start crying when a baby cried in my fave restaurant. I'll say this - people who don't understand the travails of getting children to school whilst incorporating all the other daily activities of life are wilfully ignorant.

Surely it's time to crack open the 'what do you call a bloke with....' barrel. Here's some: no arms and no legs in Swimming Pool - Bob wearing brown paper bags - Russell with spade in head - Doug without spade in head - Douglas rabbit up backside - Warren buried in mud - Pete fish with no eyes - fsh And hamster, you're obviously not monitoring this page closely enough as I already did the 'fairer than that joke'

How do you get your kids to school Pancake? If you lived next to a train station you'd expect a lot of traffic at peak hours - a narrow access road like many in Hants stations could be blocked by Chardonnay dropping Robert off for the Stockbroker Run. Yes I did complain about you as I object to being classified. I think this is essentially a category error - yes some people are lazy and take the mickey, others understand the situation around the school and attempt to minimize disruption to the local residents for the three or four minutes they are there. If you don't choose to discern the difference, then you are likely to just go around calling everyone an arsehole which can only lend weight to the conclusion that you may be one yourself. For the record, we bought a house next to the school because we didn't want the hassle of driving the kids to school - it was one of our main search criteria. Strangely, at school time, there were many cars parked on the pavement. Quelle surprise! Some of the people dropping the kids off were prime d-heads - e.g accelerating off to 50 while there was loads of kids around - but it's ok, fast cars are cool.

My dad took me to the pub at lunchtime for 4 pints of HSB and a few games of darts - best birthday ever!

Oh god, I feel compelled to do this: Chinese Restaurant - waiter asks "How was your Duck?" - punter says "Rubbery",waiter says "Wonderful!"

Oh Gollygosh, Dune, can you not wait 20 minutes to do your tip run? They must have built that school behind your back when you were complaining about the liberals! I remember a cantankerous old man who always complained about people dropping off the kids near school. Everyone thought he was a hideous cantankerous old man - is that you Dune? What are these parents doing, dropping their kids off and firing sidewinder missles into you rhouse, or simply dropping your future health care workers off? Yes, buddy, every time you need your arse wiping, it's entirely likely that one of the kids will be doing it - and they'll remember your face - and they wont care how rough they will be!!!!
-
Cool. I suppose you can make the best of your talents and show your kids how to make the best of theirs, just like your dad did - that makes the ending of life worthwhile I suppose.

Read Porno by Irving Welsh - that'll do you. If you're not going to use drugged up/abused eastern european slaves, then you will require some social skills in order to get the 'talent'. You'll require a unique selling point, Saints is probably too specific, but soccer sex can work - maybe introduce a gay angle? Perhaps a montage of post training sweaty penetration? "Oooh, Adam, I loved your (p)ass as I smacked my ball into the net" kind of thing. Show me the rushes and I'll let Big Sam know if it's any good.

I cannot understand why doctors let pregnancies go post term. I know half a dozen cases like this when a c-section would have kept the baby alive, but they died due to strangulation/infection. Maybe it's impossible to perform the operation when the baby is engaged, maybe just too expensive? I don't know, but this is the kind of death that has a real impact on me - because it oughtn't have happened. As a boy, I had a wonderful cat that I loved but got poisoned - I didn't react at all. A year later a hamster of ours died and I was blubbing like a baby, but I didn't give a rat's arse about the stupid hamster, I was crying about the cat!

What I'm saying is: a) Earthquake in Japan b) Japan government pays loads of money to keep Yen value. c) Bunch of FKKKKINNNNNNN CNNNNNNNNTSSSSSSSSSSS collect money - spend/invest it in their home countries. d) Japan - or any other country that has got rolled - tries to rebuild itself using loans that it already paid for.
-
The Japanese central bank has pumped billions of dollars into the yen market and share prices for various companies have changed. There's going to be a whole bunch of people making a stack of cash on this - I'm sure many porsches have been bought and paid for in the last couple of days. Is there any point where rich people wont consider making themselves richer still? So, Japan bankrupts itself keeping the currency going and asks for aid at the same time - because it has to. Why not the billionaires say - hold on, we'll not take advantage of your weakness, we'll cease trading yen and affected stocks for a while? Why don't we pay for some aid? No, they'll take massive profits, make some tokenistic contribution to a rebuilding programme, encourage 'normal' people to contribute to a disaster fund and ensure the system stays in place for the next time there's a buck to be made.

I'm guessing evryone's stil on the pi 5 5! I had a thought that the Roar could issue a quartered shirt with 'your UK team' in maybe the bottom right quarter. After all, it's not only saints fans who follow them - seen plenty of Leicester and other fans about. Might have to get 50 or 100 orders. Would mean we could be 3/4 Roar and 1/4 Saints at the match!

Laboured attempt at social commentary, whilst having some remnants of truth, only funny to DailyMails.

Good crap joke - keep it up.

Tell me you're not talking about the teenage boy biscuit game?!?!
-
Great build up, if only there was a punchline not obscured by the swear filter.
-
The final score will be 3-9

As the youth and local season is about to start, I just noticed a team near Logan who call themselves 'The Mighty Saints', complete with a stickman + halo Saint badge. They're at Regents Park which means I'll never see them, but if they were local I'd join my lad up straight away!
-
That this is a discussion topic is testimony to our fall and the rise of the B&B(HA). I will always be pleased about our neighbours manfully getting out of the third tier, so long as Saints are frkin stratospheres above them which we AREN'T AND THAT MAKEES ME ANGRY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is two and a half men shown in UK? If so, how popular is it? Reluctant admiration for him, he's always been trouble. If I had his money, why would I want to bed porn stars who've had more traffic than the mersey tunnel? The George Clooney route of knobbing leading actresses is surely more dignified?

Good work people, the standard of crapness is going up! I can only think of crap racist jokes from the 70s involving ethiopians, golf clubs, breakfast cereals, ovens. What a nasty and oblivious undercurrent existed then! I think joke dynamics vs BNP is a an interesting subject in itself.
