    That aside I thought in life people are usually encouraged to take chances and venture into the unknown. rather than play it safe.
    Also I think the votes should not be counted during the night I've done some night shifts in my time and it's not a place for complicated tasks like counting.
    Sadly, a lot of people are cringing, unprincipled cowards, f. They do what they're told by the big man from the government/bank/whatever because he tells them terrible things will happen otherwise.

    I know what you mean about nightshifts. I used to do nights in a refrigerated warehouse. It was the most desperate place you've ever seen. The poor *******s were so cold, knackered and miserable, they used to cheer themselves up by howling 'CUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNTTTTTTT!' at the tops of their voices so it echoed round the place.

    I was once given a lift home by a black bloke called Socrates. Being a fresh-faced 19 year-old I said: 'Like the philosopher, you mean?' He'd named himself after the footballer when he was young (?!), had never heard of the philosopher and thought I was taking the piss

    I always felt the hours between 3 and 5 were the worst. Worked nights in the hotel a few times and had a stint as the spare night manager Then did security.

    One day I was sent to another site to cover. did the patrols and that then this over enthusiastic fella who worked there showed me his photo collection of castles. I said that's a nice castle. 'THAT'S NOT A CASTLE IT'S A FORT!' :That told me

    After ages of these photos he then said to me it's time get the party started. He then started playing episodes of Sharpe on his laptop.

    Quality. Mind you, Sharpe is ace. It has Sean Bean in it saying things like 'Me mother was a whore and I were born in a brothel'. Doesn't get better than that.

    Exactly. But with fewer tedious jokes and more killing of Frenchmen, besting of cowardly toffs and bedding of posh totty (that's basically the plot to every Sharpe episode ever, btw).

    He's alright. Overrated, though - like all these comics.

    You joke, of course, but it's actually how we end up with every single government we get. Every election, people choose that which they think will suit their pockets and that which they find least scary. And then these self-same voters spend the next five years moaning about how ineffectual and unprincipled they are and how they're all the same no matter who you vote for, etc, etc.

    OF COURSE THEY ARE, DICKHEAD - THAT'S WHAT YOU VOTED FOR!
