Well, obviously we'd need to make sure true Brits were able to continue parking as recklessly as they like, having implanted in the memory they'd always been this thoughtless and anti-social and in no way was it the passive-aggressive result of the ever increasing number of injuries suffered from life's slings and arrows showing no sign of slowing down, despite their recent revelation that they are, and had always been, members of the chosen race..

I'd propose some sort of sticker for their cars, notifying service workers and other ethnicities that they bear the responsibility for ensuring there are no additional delays.

Probably it's easier to scrap ambulances altogether! Running to the hospital would do a lot of obese lazy types good. This being an inner city problem, I would also suggest we would be justified in banning young non-white people from driving.

Also no more cycling. It's a very European thing, needs scrapping.

dunno if this belongs in this thread or the gay crisps thread,
but here goes...

sid vicious invented the punk pogo dance because he was playing the saxophone in a band in '76 and whilst doing so he didn't know what else to do but jump up and down like a lunatic as a way of dancing.
or so says viv albertine of the slits.

around?

lazy calculations are not interesting...
a million seconds is 11days 13hours 46mins and 40secs.

and billions are dull,
let's talk quadrillions of seconds...
31,688,087.81402895 years

edit:
and zillions don't really exist.

Rescued Fruit Bats in a sanctuary in outer Brisbane. These have a wingspan of about a metre. First one's I saw were in Brisbane city centre at dusk flying around some huge trees, freaked me out a bit.

A 16-year-old schoolboy Francis Seldon made a pun about Louis XIV’s baldness during a royal visit to a school in Clermont. Louis had the boy thrown into the Bastille, where he remained in solitary confinement for 69 years.

In 1674, the time of the king’s visit, Francis Seldon was the son of a rich Irish family who had sent him to France to get a first-class education. His crime was putting up a poster mocking his Jesuit teacher’s habit of holding king above God.

For this Seldon was imprisoned, and his parents were informed that the boy had disappeared. They died still believing this, at which point Seldon inherited the family fortune.

But Seldon wasn’t released for 31 years, and only then because a Jesuit priest petitioned on his behalf, in return for 98 per cent of his assets. Seldon returned to Ireland, physically broken but a wealthy man, at least until he honoured his contract with the Jesuits.

it's an interesting story but is there a moral?
