It seems to be a way to try to kid on that the queen, and now the king, had/have a purpose. You can symbolise, personify and represent as much as you like, you're still not actually doing anything. We should all pick a noun to personify. I'm going for ennui. Sigh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, the old German biscuit/Empire biscuit debate. Had this very discussion with a mate yesterday at a cafe in Edzell. Raised voices but German biscuit for me. A fight was averted because he pointed out to the server "that's no an Empire biscuit, there's nae cherry on top". Biscuit wars, eh?

I had you down as an "anomie" kinda guy. I'll go for the Marxist classic "alienation". I will personify alienation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will personify alienation. I used to be the very definition of anomie, but I just can't be bothered with that kind of thing anymore. Perhaps the mods could stick you on everyone's ignore list for a while to help with the alienation. Pretty sure they did that with me once and, if not, they probably should. Sigh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No wonder Patel resigned, the ‘No Alien’ policy was a complete failure. The dead David Bowie must be pissing himself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clown Job Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 I do kinda laugh at people being outrage at individuals being arrested for being “offensive” by protesting…. While the same people supported the OBFA which done the same thing to football fans deemed “offensive” by the police 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering there's actual footage on Twitter of them assaulting somebody, you'd imagine the Growly McBeergut twins should be expecting a chap on the door. Back in the real world, they'll probably be in the new year's honours list...they could always rename the Order of the Garter to the Order of the Training Bra and give it solely to nonce enablers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
