Tell me about it.

6 months on JSA is pretty crippling. And if you live at home.... forget getting any extra help.

If only I could speak fluent French! Sacrebleu!

[citizenED]

Tickled me, for being on the BBC. Daily Mash surely? Marmite Jesus

[Eliza.D]

it's a sad story really but i had to laugh. 80 year old who kept her mum in a deep freeze for 30 years.

Lets hope she doesn't wake up. Or does that just happen in the movies?

Don't put her on the BBQ until fully defrosted...

Oh for fuck?s sake! http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/8094515.stm

What?s the point of going to a festival if you, ?Don't drink too much? don't take drugs, drink plenty of water, wear sun screen when hot and keep your feet dry??

And now you can?t crowd surf because apparently, ?Joanna Squires, aged 30, from Essex, was knocked over and sustained bruising to her head??

Balls.

[Brendan]

Does this cunt actually expect us to buy this?

More accurately reported by the Daily Mash:

Or could have perhaps been entitled, Man in charge of excuses thinks you are an idiot.

Apparently it's illegal to be in possession of a 16 year old boy from Norwood.

This Is Local London

Also arrested were a 25-year-old financial insurance broker from Sheffield who was cautioned for possession of an offensive weapon and possession of cannabis and a 16-year-old boy from West Norwood.

Journalist from Southwark Life perhaps?

I light of all the recent hand wringing on here, this is worth noting; Killings down

[Brendan]

That?s the recession for you. You just can?t buy good quality shot at Lidl so the people of Surrey are having to resort to knobkerries to chase interlopers off their lands.

Loving current issue of New Scientist.

Willing to think that 'Falling out of love with Market Myths' and 'Are you a Believer' about climate change denial and subjective dissonance even among 'beleievers' won't be bedtime Reading for our own dear (and respected) Marmora* Man.

What is the sixth most earth-destroying, future-raping postcode in the country? (sort of)

[SeanMacGabhann]

That's not all Ted - I found out that the Bossanova setting on a Yamaha P43ICY organ uses 10 times more power than the Rock setting.. so... you know what to do

Has anyone seen that freaky Daily Mail front page from yesterday I think where, apparently, people who have a patio are going to have the jackboot of the state repeatedly stamped in their face?

or something

[annaj]

How can anyone possibly write the phrase "Hasn't middle England suffered enough?" without irony?

Bonkers.

[SeanMacGabhann]

that was my favourite line too annaj

Just remember peasants - just because you work 10 hours behind a beeping till in Sainsbury's and then possibly a cleaning job at night to make ends meet, that's NOTHING compared to the hell of the middle classes who had to read a story like this yesterday. possibly sitting on their patio. In the sun. Eating freshly baked croissants, gourmet coffee and freshly squeezed orange juice...

Us middle-classes - our life is unbearable I tell you

[Brendan]

You used to get freshly baked croissants on the NHS before the immigrants ate them all.

[Ted Max]

Settee - serviette - lounge - pardon? - patio.

Sofa - napkin - sitting room - what? - terrace.

[mockney piers]

Oh that's sooooo middle class of you annaj!!

Pain relief, Brendan? I said, pain... oh never mind.
