Loads of awful goals against Arsenal. I’m having a proper good moan at all of them :cloud9:

The chicken had clearly come straight out of the fridge and they served it with bacon-flavoured crisps, ffs! It was abominable, but I'd sexually molest an alligator to be able to do that now. :-(Quote:

You're on to a movie there B. 'The Before Time' It will become the new BC. On a lighter note (I think) I haven't had a fag for 3 weeks. Do they go off?Quote:

Then they'll book us in for our appointment to be turned into Soylent Green. :-(Quote:

The fúcking Chinese are going to pay, la. You mark my words. :furious:
And even if we realise our mistake we cannot go back. Our politicians dare not concede they have made errors because they'll quickly be annihilated by Twitter.Quote:

I blame you b. You thought it highly amusing when Trump decided the world could be governed by a string of facile Tweets.
Excuse me? I was questioning whether the response to this was proportionate weeks ago! You've only just caught up with me.Quote:

And what's increasingly clear here is that it's the health experts who are calling the shots rather than the politicians.
:hehe: Spot on H. In our tragic future PC world (Post Corona) our government will just click it's fingers whenever it wants and just say 'you know the drill folks, everyone inside' Maybe we should be grateful we lived most of our lives in a normal way...Quote:

One hopes we have leaned our lesson b. However I see the BBC already leading the big hug for the yellas.Quote:

The determination with which our media classes have refused to acknowledge that the Chinese have been telling barefaced lies about their numbers is actually shocking. If we're to believe these cretins, the Chinese cases hit a peak and then basically stopped. This would be in direct contravention of absolutely everything we know about the spread of the virus, of course, but still this blatant propaganda from a viciously authoritarian state that currently has a million muslims in concentration camps has just been parroted unquestioningly by our supposedly progressive media.Quote:
