Why Do MPs Not Know When To STFU?

"I personally believe it's quite likely to happen"

Who invited the personal beliefs of MPs into this debate?  I personally believe it's unlikely to happen - does that matter?  What does BoatmanJoe of Margate think?  What does anyone's personal belief matter one jot?

"It's a comparatively easy way of..."

And there's the weasel word that saves this from being out and out bullshit.  "Comparatively" easy to LAUNCH INTO SPACE a NUCLEAR WEAPON and DETONATE IT.  Compared to what?  Detonating a nuclear weapon through a known, functional launching mechanism?  You know, like the ones that are routinely tested all the time? Comparatively easier than launching a manned vessel into space?

Seriously, why do we allow these arseholes to speak on our behalf?

Happy Valentine's Day

This is what happens when you share Valentine's Day with someone like-minded.

You can be certain we had reservations at a very exclusive and expensive new restaurant afterward.  I had to cut our evening short however as I... ...had some videotapes to return.

Passing The Working Day: Amusing and/or pissing off over 1300 unique visitors per year since 2007!

Woop Woop!

That's more than three and a half unique people per day!  HAHAHAHA!

Sure, we could piss off more people in one go by farting on the train, but this is like some kind of sustained onslaught that no one even knows is happening.

We are the Comedy Insurgency.

Why Words With Friends Sucks II

Q.E.D.

"When the Daily Mail calls rightwingers stupid, the result is dumbogeddon"

Oh Charlie Brooker! You continue to effortlessly do what I strive to.

Why Words With Friends Sucks

at least when playing with a stranger.

...looking at you, "Gazeroni", you semi-literate cheating piece of shit.

Captain "Coalition" Obvious

Hot off the back of the government's last health warning: My MP, My Doctor, comes their latest ill-advised, [each letter was meant to link to it's own retarded reader-comment, but I got very bored so there are only five links in the previous word (check each letter)] condescending blurb: Drinking 'little too much' alcohol.

As always, some commenters on the BBC are more backward than the article itself: "We have recognised the dangers that motorcycling represents through enhanced testing and increasing the minimum age for their use. Perhaps, as young peope seem unable to drink sensibly, we should increase the drinking age to 21. [sic]"  But you can still fuck at 16?  Good job.

Edit: (it's not even a true edit)  While writing this, the editor at the beeb chose the comment I linked to via the first "i" as an "editor's pick."

nPower's Understanding of "Going Paperless"

You're doing it wrong.  Three letters in three separate envelopes, two of which including the same leaflet showing the same young couple just absolutely vibing off being able to submit meter readings via their smartphones.  /civilisation.

...and I even signed up online.
