To be fair, you're "NY based". I'm sure unannounced visitors are given short shrift and heavy use of the word "asswipe" applies. In Britain we're slightly more refined. Tea, milk, coffee, sugar, port, brandy, gin, whisky... it's good manners.

I doubt you have to worry about dealing with children.

Harsh isn't it. How I'd love a flat stomach. But that would mean eating healthy and it's frankly not a price worth paying.

Lol there is no correct size when your stomach is like mine. If I get the right size they slide down to my hips and are far too big and fall down!

Just an inkling. Nothing more. British descent, white, from Australia, New Zealand, or South Africa, humourless.

Almost as if the sort of Brits that emigrated to the colonies were the miserable, humourless ones. Explains a lot.

I had to do it with a bloke who looked like one of the Dingles off Emmerdale. So it wasn't so bad.

I had to say that to an employee once. Most uncomfortable conversation I've ever had.

Surely that's part of the point of most films.

Can't really argue with that. That, and the second Iraq War are probably the two key historical events that have given us the world we have today.

So they say, but either way they don't anymore so the flavour should be renamed "old fashioned banana flavour"

But then nothing "banana flavoured" could ever be rendered thus

Not to underplay the racist element which is obviously worse. But they are essentially just unpleasant people looking for any excuse to be unpleasant

To be fair I suspect she also sees a dirty Fenian, a northerner who should know her place, and I'm sure she'd find some reason to judge the Governess. That's the thing with these people. They're obviously racists, but they're also basically misanthropes.

I'd argue she's a fuckwit. But I'm willing to cede the ground on this one.

I mean apart from the obvious, it also suggests that advertisers - loathsome though they are - don't know how to do their job. It's just a party for the thickest fuckers in society. As if the most amoral industry ever created might do anything for "woke" reasons rather than money.

They're all good, even very good, but there's something raw about Cabaret - which is an odd thing to say for an electro album - that for me puts it ahead any of them. It just captures a time and a place; grubby, seedy, but yearning at the same time.

Their first album is an absolute classic. I would say under-rated, but it's more unrated these days. Easily the equal of Lexicon of Love or Dare.

You don't have to take my word for it though. Just Google "is the private sector more efficient than the public sector". Plenty of studies have found otherwise.
