I'll third that. I like when people's lives are going as well as they possibly could. Too many people moaning.

Absolutely. I'll add a fourth for NEWM.

Fifthed. I'd call it life affirming if it didn't sound so gay. Fair play MEWM.

Yep, I'll back that one too. It can be hard to gauge some people on here at times, but NEWM has come across as a top bloke from day one. Really good to see that every aspect of his wedding and honeymoon went well.

I hadn't seen that post until coming here and it is nice to see someone having an excellent time. Marriage is supposedly not fashionable these days but it's the best thing I ever did, and seemingly NEWM too.

Putting in this post from Vamp - it's just made the last few pages of the politics thread worthwhile.

The simple truth about the violence of the streets is this, its not soley anyone's fault. I think the media, both left and right, is looking to point the finger at specific groups and go "yeah, its all their fault" but its pretty obvious who should get the blame for the violence on the streets; the Government for lying and then not being able to win people over through rational arguments, the rioters who should never have gone to that level of violence, the police who have made questionable decisions from the start, the media who have shown that the only way to get so much attention is to be violent and controversial and those who have given any money to the media which continues, on both sides of the political fence, to be nothing short of awful.

So it isn't those 'bastard' Tories who are to blame, or those 'lying, treacherous' Lib Dems, or those 'sulky middle class' students, the violence on the streets of our nation's captial is essentially the fault of our entire country (or at least those over the age of 15 or so). People arn't going to like admitting it, and I dare say that my view will be met of "oh, how is it my fault", but it is. We've had, in the past two years or so, an expert come out and explain how the reporting of murders has celebrated murders to the point where it can be seen as appealing to certain people, and what he said made a lot of sense, and there's not a single person who can rationally argue that the student protests would have gotten this much attention if they didn't act so violently. The media has encouraged it, and we've all supported the way the media have been and will continue to do so. Not that I condone people who have used violence to get attention, personally I'd rather people used sheer numbers and words to fight their battles, but I'm certainly not shocked (and nor should any rational person be) that people felt that violence was the only way of getting their message across.

So there you go, that's the violence explained. There's no one section of sociey to pin this all on. Even if you do agree with the government's policy I find it hard to believe that anyone would argue that they did a very good job of getting their message across. People will no doubt argue this with "oh, well, these sulky students just put their fingers in their ears and didn't listen because they were too busy shouting' but in doing so they'll just be part of a rhetoric which has become a major problem with this country today; the fact that youngsters are constantly derided. The more and more you put down a section of society, the more and more you pin them as something, the more and more likely they are to take on your words, take on your comments and then throw them back at you, taking on those negative connotations and throwing them in your face. For years people have suggested that 'violent youngsters have taken over the streets at night' making them feel its unsafe to walk about town, the student protests ended with a mass of youngsters taking on that image and chanting about the streets being theirs.

The only part of this that has shocked me is this basic assumption that all students are middle class, or that it's only the middle class complaining. I'm a student from a working class background and I'm deeply concerned about the new cost of tuition fees. My reason is simply this; I'm a Beaver leader and I know that one day those six year olds will grow up, and some of them will want to go to Uni and some of them won't, but I live in a working class area and I know for a fact that the new numbers that students will now have to face would have put me off from going to University. I would have had second thoughts. Some of those kids will have to see those figures and face such high debts and make a decision; go to Uni or not, I would hate it some of those kids decided not to persue their dreams because of those numbers. And I know for a fact that some of them will. That's not debatable. Of course the debts that the entire country must face have be taken into consideration, but there are those out there who have simply brushed any problems with all this aside as "they haven't got a point at all, this isn't going to stop anyone from going to uni, its just the middle class sulking" which simply isn't true. An entire country is, of course, more important that one simple person, it would be foolish to argue that it wasn't but we must all face the fact that the decision this government has made, a decision that by and large it seems this country agrees with, will stop certain people from doing what they want to do with their lives. This generation is guilty of stoping people from achieving their dreams. Whether it was the right decision or not will still be debated for a while but anybody who's tried to wipe their noses of this guilt must face those facts. Not all right decisions are easy, I grant you, and maybe there was no choice but the fact still remains, those who claim that it won't really have any effect are as blind as any leftist cries that education should have been made free.

I was going to nominate that but, (i) the thread became really shit very soon thereafter and nomination would only encourage people to read said thread, and (ii) RepoMan belittled this post and I was afraid of incurring a belittling myself should I nominate it.

Seconded, is what I'm trying to say.

Oh and sorry its a bit late but congratulations on the wedding MEWM.

I've just checked, and no, you didn't actually - my apologies if I have besmirched your name. You'd said the thread started suit and got shitter, I must have just inferred from there. My bad!

The painfully unfunny nature of your username really does suit you, fairplay.

But yeah I'll nominate Triple A too, genuinely decent gag. I was surprised.

I nominate, for your consideration, an early contender for 2011. From, and about, 'Coming Of Age':
QUOTE (Chilli_Dog @ Jan 11 2011, 0:25) *
you are fucking kidding me, who recommissioned this fucking shite.

I watched the first ever episode the other day. It was called "B...lowjob". Verrrrry WITAY.

The show starts with two lead characters having anal while doing homework, there's talk of having a "comfort wank" in the library. One of the characters is Welsh (cos they iz funneh), there's a character called DK who fancies and I quote "fat mingers who let me put my jam in there doughnut" which is then followed by a million fat jokes (not a million, but it felt like it). By the way I should point out here to explain the plot of this episode it mainly hubs around the students planning on sucking there teacher off so they can get better grades.... ANYWAY back to the roflcopter, a male character then says he has "Men Problems" involving "bleeding out my knob" and "plugging a pencil into my japseye", YES you fucking read that. Following more hijinks with DK in which he raps about something to do with cock and women's "twats" and all of the characters continuously making fat jokes, we then have the teacher being confronted by female lead character Jasmine Brown (possible relation to Divine) who wants her E grade changed to an A.

She pitches her idea by saying she wants to make him "E-rect and E-Jaculate with her F-tits" (somewhere John Cleese is loading shotgun into his mouth) as we saw some hilarity as she leaves him in the pool naked to be caught by the whole school. FUCKING LOL eh............ LOL. And as for our mate DK well to get this fat girls attention by throwing and I'm not kidding, a pork pie at her window and then reading her a poem. I have decided to re-print the poem in verbatim just so you can get the downright hilarity of it all.

Roses are Red
You are very Fat
Invite me Inside
And I'll lick your Twat

It's safe to say nobody needs to read the Whitsun Wedding's after this.

So "Coming of Age" has somehow managed to go for not just one series but for TWO bloody series with an average of 1 million viewers. 1 MILLION people watch this show, greatly amused by the hilarious episode titles including "Dick and Fanny", "I Suck Coppers", "Up the Botty" and ahem "Pussy Boy". I don't fully comprehend the brain disabling aspect of "Coming of Age". It's not a show that makes you lose IQ points, it makes you go flat out retarded, I've become more stupid after watching it. I don't know right from wrong, I'm so stupid after watching it that I actually wrote a massive rant on it. "Coming of Age" is a fucking awful show, it's the most dire show I have possibly ever witnessed, I hope everyone involved in it dies and there bodies are then piled up and set on fire as an example that nobody ever tries anything like that again, fucking tossers... good day to you all.

That's exactly what I was going to post. My opinion, 'All press is good press' and all that jazz. How many of us can honestly say they haven't clicked his link from this thread? Honestly. I did. Big whoop kid, you're a webstite designer. So's my mate, and he's done work for massive companies. Bully for him, bully for you and bully for us all. Crawl back up your arse and stop thinking you're important enough to warrant a whinging thread on an on topic forum. At best it was for off topic, but realistically, just grow the fuck up.

People don't like me in REAL life. I can't remember the last time I didn't cry myself to sleep because of it! Oh by the way, i'm selling friendship bracelets for cunts, and you can buy them at www.whogivesafu... yadda yadda yadda.
