  1. So now you are suggesting there may be "auto-correction" for gays ?
  2. The question posed, as presented, makes sense.
  3. Reading examples of British understatement and subtle wit. I have read an article about Leila Khaled, the Palestinian woman who was part of a hijacking group in the early 1970s. When she tried to hijack a plane from Amsterdam to New York she was overpowered and the plane diverted to Heathrow, where she was handed over to the Police. An immigration officer visited her in jail, and asked her "Why exactly did you enter the country without a valid visa ?". The Royal Navy is a great source of such things. For example, there was an alleged exchange between the USN and the RN as the allies closed in on Japan. An American ship signalled a British one, " How's the second largest navy in the World getting on ?". The RN commander replied "We are fine thankyou, how's the second best ?".
  4. It is what gets left in the dressing room 2 minutes before the Saints take the field.
  5. Stop stealing my lines !
  6. Too old and don't fit the high pressing system.
  7. It is amazing how many players being paid tens of thousands of pounds a week in Europe's top divisions are rated as "awful".
  8. Just because a prawn is pink, don't assume it is gay.
  9. Exactly - 3 matches before the end of the window.
  10. I do not belive that anybody in this country is 'constantly' being targetted.
  11. Too little money

    Prefer them over Corbyn's Labour at a GE.
  18. Would explain the 0 but the midfield and defence are to blame for at least the second of the 2, ( assuming you blame Long for the first ).
  19. Shop window ? ;-(

    CD would have a different story to tell.
  21. Of course not you twonk. I don't need to be told that racism is wrong, that is something that is patently obvious. The difference here is that rather than reinforcing a message to an individual who doesn't comply with the norm, everybody is being forced to loudly and forcibly demonstrate that they are in fact in agreement. I believe that all forms of discrimination are wrong, and I also believe that the vast majority of people feel the same, but they would rather simply get on with their lives without having to make pointless gestures of visible compliance because a vocal minority of Social Media loudmouths will otherwise point the finger of shame at them. Stating that "the knee" is gesture politics does not make me a racist, but I hope it indicates that I am a realist.
  22. Precisely. People object to being lectured to about how they are meant to behave or think.
  23. To be fair, many men have suffered indirectly from these things, and have been told most vociferously how they feel.
