Lists...

Go see Warrior King. Brilliant film.

Things that have been getting my goat lately:

-The weather
-The German
-The cock in my office who wears shiny polyester suits
-The whole 'taxes and charges' thing that adds about 30% to the price of an airline ticket
-The rudeness of not RSVPing to invitations
-The people against profiling by airlines. I'd like to be able to take a book and iPod on board
-The people who should remain silent and be thought fools but who speak and remove all doubt
-The people who describe themselves as having a 'rugby build' when they are, infact, just plain fat
-The people who say they are into bondage and sado masochism but really aren't
-The fucking bitch at the cinema yesterday who talked through the film. Very satisfying watching her get splashed by a car
-The misguided cu nts known as 'animal rights activists'
-The absence from Oxford of Big Straight Phil and Tom the Gay
-The self-important bint in the office who doesn't realise her job can be done by a monkey and is going to be automated when she retires next month
-The people who refer to single entities in the plural- "the University are hoping to..." or "Nat West have raised bank charges..." instead of the correct- "the University IS hoping to..." and "Nat West HAS raised bank charges..."
-The people who go on and on about the size of their stipend but never buy a round of drinks or bring wine/anything when invited to supper
-The people who get offended when you point this out to them

I think you're in the wrong country. As far as I can tell, most things you don't like are pretty much peculiarities of this here nation. Like Jim Davidson.

Marwood, you are so wrong.

A pop group is a single entity and therefore, as much as it pains me to say this, the US music reviewers are correct in referring to it in the singular.

You were right, it is a good film.

Say, why don't you come out of hiding now?
