Thank you but I'm an educated philistine. How else am I meant to know what culture to scorn?

Does this mean you're on a higher plain again now?

It's a shame how this one seems to be giving up just as a little progress is being made.
I mean, I'm a little sceptical of new ideas due to my long tenure in the Matrix, but it has occurred to me that I do quite like not paying for things.

Do you think it would be a diabolical liberty to ask a passing mod to change it to something more accurate?

Posted in 2010. I'm absolutely sure Stephen Barry hasn't paid a penny in council tax since then.

Edit: In fact... ‘Freeman on the Land’ jailed for failure to pay council tax

 

[Poi E]

Not so Freeman no more

 

[Wilf]

Actually, I might have the wrong idiot. That one ^ is Mark Mackenzie, also a Freeman, also not paid anything since 2010.
Man tried to use ancient legal loophole to avoid paying council tax
Hard to tell of course when legal names are so fluid.

Yeah, different guy & council, anyway, good find for the lolz.

Freedom from the oppressive council emptying your bins and providing other services.

The smell of freedom has never been so rancid, especially on a hot day.

Governor: 'Right, welcome to Manchester Prison'
- I am not a prisoner, I am a Freeman!
'Sigh. Look, let's start with the basics. What's your name?'
- 'Aha! My Legal Name is distinct from my real name!
'So, there's no prisoner here called Mark Mackenzie?'
- Correct!
'So, you'll not be wanting your tea'
- Give me Liberty or give me Death!
'Well ...'

They think A Rush and a Push and the Land We Stand On is Ours, it has been before etc.

The politics of sixth form poetry.

There is a Council Tax Bill That Never Goes Out.

If your legal name isn't your name then what is?

 

[Wilf]

I don't owe you anything.

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

If your legal name isn't your name then what is?

Spartacus?

I wonder if actually being in prison is enough to convince these people that just maybe their foolproof legal getout isn't quite working out how they expected.

Old but gold

I know of someone that when in crown court refused to recognise their name. The judge had him arrested for failing to attend court

The ‘System’
The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy, and when you’re inside, and look around, what
do you see? Businessmen, Teachers, Lawyers, Carpenters, the very minds of the people we are trying to
save. But until we do, these people are still a part of that system and that makes them our enemy. You have
to understand: most of these people are not ready to be unplugged, and many of them are so inured, so
hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it. – Morpheus – The Matrix

Have you ever stood in a phonebox and dramatically slapped your hand on the window fixing your intense gaze on someone outside ala The Matrix? Love that shit.

I've taken a lot of red pills. Does that count?

The cake is a lie

 

[JuanTwoThree]

Traditionally one thinks of Admiralty Law as "the law of the water"; though in 1933 it was adapted for everyday use on land by fictionally converting all people to vessels through the birth certificate

Which is why they end up in the dock.

More maritime gaol jokes on the way.

I saw that Baudrillard walking past and gave him the finger. Anyway, did somebody mention cake?

At the end of the day people what it all boils down to is we have been unknowingly deceived by the world as we know it!! I just hope that the future generations realise our mistakes and make them right!! Educate your children and let them decide what's right and wrong!!! No the despotic leaders we all blindly follow...........
