    Re: The General Election

    We've just been warned at work that we may not use any official resources for campaigning. I hereby state that I'm not an election candidate & have no connection to any.

    However I'm going to stick to posts about mongs, poo, yummy mummies & grammar nazi-ism when at work from now until the election...
    ARRSE - Not as funny as it used to be since 2003.

    Any state which has a permanent staff of officials, they begin as our servants and end up imagining themselves our masters.

    Shouldnt that be 'new media'? Just saying. Although internet forums (Fora? Foras? Foruimviea?) have been around for 12 years or more, if one includes UseNet, they aint exactly new.

    But you're the Boss. If you say ARRSE is 'a relatively new medium', I'd just make the rules up as you go along. Thats what I do with new mediums.

    IronDuke, medium is singular, media is plural. Similarly forum & fora...

    I must say I am amazed to find out that apparently we are now out of a recession now that the Liabour party are canvassing for votes.

    How did I miss that little gem of information?

    I missed that little insult earlier, However as its people like you that cause certain right wing political parties to gain voters would you describe yourself as a sock puppet?

    So people only vote BNP because someone has called them racist or fascist? Don't they have a mind of their own?

    Re: The General Election

    Some cnut of a Lib Dem keps sending me propaganda bites on Facebook about the LDs mighty achievements. Which I find annoying so spend some time thinking of apposite responses like "As the election has been called, is it too much to ask that Vince Cable can be dry-cleaned or at least pressed?"

    The other day he asked why I was replying to his helpful points of information in this way. I replied because he was using social media and broadcasting it to me. I asked if he approved of free speech and he almost said "No." before remembering that he was a LD not a National Socialist...

    There is no humour in politics, it along with charity, faith and hope has been squeezed out by self-serving agenda.

    They used to say if an infinite number of chimps typed we would get the works of Shakespeare, the internet has proved this is NOT the case...

    You're going to vote for them anyway. Everyone else thought it was funny.
