Official: Prince Philip is Dead, 9th April 2021

[cupid_stunt]

My mum got me a subscription to the evil Murdoch empire in lockdown so I have been watching tons of Premier League and Championship games. It's a real pisser that the lionesses aren't on BBC Four.

Murdoch lost the battle to take over Sky, and sold his shares, he hasn't had any involvement in the business for years.

 

[danny la rouge]

Weak.

Really? Well, I have no respect for any of them or their milieu. They’re all entitled takers. Philip was a “womaniser”, which today we’d call a sex pest at best. I’ve no doubt he was Andrew’s role model.

Their personal behaviour isn’t my main complaint, though. The existence of the institution is.

 

[Pickman's model]

I think that’s in poor taste. Think very carefully about calling people nonces because if you cheapen the term you do a grave disservice to real victims. Prince Andrew, yes. Prince Philip met The Queen when she was 13 and he 18, they then exchanged love letters for years, and had a marriage that lasted seven decades. If that is your definition of a ‘nonce’ it’s meaningless.

I think that ship has sailed if today's teenagers do as many people did when I was a teenager and use the word as a mild insult. Not sure that prison slang, as nonce originally was, takes victims much into account

 

[cupid_stunt]

Thanks for the link. Just left an online complaint.

Only one?

I've made six complaints using all my various different e-mail addresses.

 

[Orang Utan]

Fucking hell I thought BBC Four was safe. This is disgusting.

Game Of Thrones and The Sopranos are on some Sky channels, which seems appropriate - toxic families with big big problems

Teenagers are shouting that at you because they’re accusing you of it, not because the term has changed meaning.

Is this thingy, that street sort of parallel to the Wicker, a bit north of London Road, and that gym used to be Pow! gym what was owned by a dodgy boxer for a while?

 

[Idris2002]

Andrew has some naval experience

Won't he be on the "demonstrating keel-hauling" detail?

There's a PM group, I'll add you.

 

[cupid_stunt]

Don't bother adding me, cheers.

OH NO THERE ISN'T!

There's deffo a specific term to describe adult nonces who express a sexual interest in young teenagers. Enough to get put on a special wing these days.

no, no one's shouted it at me. When I was younger many people used ponce and nonce interchangeably to express mild insults. It wasn't used to suggest 'you're a paedo', certainly not when used by one girl to another as was then most often the case. Simply put, the term doesn't I think have the value you place on it

The draggee as it were

Nah, it's the A61 roughly parallel to Kelham Island. Near Shakespeare's pub.

 

[kenny g]

Just switched to BBC1 stream for a minute. Grotesque.

For sale, one careless owner

Hah, I was proper certain of myself there, this why you should never ask me for directions ever. And now that I look it up, I can see that I was getting the Moor mixed up with the Wicker as well. Although it sounds like it must have been closer to the Wicker than the Moor anyway? Christ my geography's shit. Anyway, I wish Prince Philip good luck with his reincarnation anyway.

A new earthworm was born today

Stuck at Felixstowe.

I served my apprenticeship and later worked just further along Penistone Road when it was all tool works, heavy engineering and Fletchers Bakery. Brenda and Phil drove along it in 77, lots of workers stood outside their factories with their backs turned to the road.

 

[MickiQ]

Briefly turned on the TV and it was banging on about his visits to the East Midlands so turned it off again.
Mrs Q: I reckon that Brenda will step down and let Chucky be King but no-one will like Camilla as Queen (OK Mrs Q actually said the Queen and Charles)
Me: Camilla won't be Queen
Mrs Q: She's the wife of the King of course she'll be Queen
Me: They've already said she will be just called the Princess-Consort, Diana will be always be the People's Queen
Mrs Q: Who the fuck are you and where is my husband?

Yeh people affecting special insight into and knowledge of the foul Windsor clan will be a plague of the coming period

What time do we have to go out and clap the cunt?

 

[ruffneck23]

As a special dispensation the royal family have requested only one hand be used by clappers

Was it somewhere round there where there used to be a pub called something like T'Ole in T'Wall, named in honour of some occasion when some big thing had rolled down a hill and made a big hole in a wall somewhere?
