  1. You need to get your prostate checked
  2. Toy Story for me Pre CGI Fantasia (I am old)
  3. Strangely after posting the Hitler v Stalin thingy I had a bit surf and one source reckoned living under Stalin your chances of being murdered by the state were 1 in 222, whereas developing cancer as a smoker was 1 in 273. Russians who smoked I guess were doubly fucked !! Death's attributable to Hitler are nominally circa 12 million (inc the holocaust) wheras Stalin is described variously as between 20 and 60 million but it appears to be gereally accepted around the 40 million mark. So I guess I'll go with the Motorway and VW Beetle bloke
  4. Would you rather Hitler or Stalin had never been born
  5. That rules out Catholic churches and mosque's then
  6. If that's a euphemism then the former. Gemmill dons crash helmet
  7. Depends on the type of church, and old woman for that matter Charva gran'd get it everytime
  8. Hermaphrodite as you can be one then the other. You can go fuck yourself as well
  9. You'd wear your arm down to your shoulder writting the list
  10. For the good of the planet and reducing global warming etc etc, I'd have to say fuck the billion
  11. Not that arsed about being famous really. Depends what you're famous for as well - if the reason I'm famous after my death is because I was found, asphyxiated, in lingerie with an orange in my mouth, I'll pass. If you're concerned about being found in that state when you're deceased I have to surmise it's a regular state of being for you ? Hands where I can see them, mincer! Why?, what citrus-esque, lingerial perversion have you in mind ??

  13. Be completely bald - got to be more attractive than a pube head. Have them find me. They'd never recognise me in the gimp mask anyway. Rascist tbh
  14. So what? It was racist then and it's racist now. That's like keeping a black man chained up in your cellar then defending it on the grounds that slavery used to be legal. Absolutely, but I'm saying I don't think it's like they guy at the sofa shop saw the sofa and said "What's a good name for this kind of brown - I know, nigger brown, niggers are this kind of brown", more like a the chinese supplier had an horrifically outdated english language colour chart and labled the colour from that without knowing enough (or any) of the language in order to know it was offensive. tbh in large parts of the world it probably wouldn't even be recognized as offensive even if they understood it, it's bizarre how we assume the rest of the world is as PC as the West, it ain't. They thing that amazes me most in all this is the seeming resurgence of "Poo Brown" furniture and paints as "trendy" colours in the last few year, it was vile in the 70's and it still is. Poo Brown will always be a shit colour

[1950's post]Stupid name for a colour anyway, everyone know's niggers are black it's the wogs that are brown [/1950's post]
  16. So what? It was racist then and it's racist now. That's like keeping a black man chained up in your cellar then defending it on the grounds that slavery used to be legal. It's not really like that at all, and unless I'm mistaken, Bluestar isn't defending the continued use of the phrase. I don't think he was either, it's just that I've heard the 'well it used to be a recognised colour' as justification for calling something nigger brown before and I think it's complete bollocks. As I say, it was racist then and it's racist now, the fact it was the done thing 20 years ago makes no difference whatsoever. 10/10 on the PC front but your maths is shit

    Isn't that the point? My point being that the feat has it's impressive-ometer needle dampened by the fact that they weren't fighting against the Persian SAS... It's still impressive, but the "facts" detract from the legend. The Persian army at the time was the greatest army on earth (having conquered a huge swathe of the planet) irrespective of it's make-up, therefore I think the feat of holding out for 3 days deserves a raise in the "impressive-ometer needle " IMO

    Was meant to be getting turned into a film directed by Michael Mann, but seems to have slipped off the radar. He went and did Collateral instead. Shame that, it'll probably never be made now because of 300 which better be good because if it's not it's a disservice to one of history's great stories. The Spartans were sort of the Nazi's of the ancient world and are a compelling subject. I don't think Nazi is a particularly fair comparison (except in the most indirect military sense, some thing Alexander and the Roman’s repeated really), both because the world was a vastly different place, and because Sparta did both somewhat directly and indirectly influence Athenian democracy (in some ways they were much more liberal and equal than them, in fact, although in many ways not), which is pretty much at least the barest ideological framework of the modern idea. But they are fascinating though definitely (as is most of Mediterranean history of that time period tbh). That's why I said "sort of" Nearest contemporary comparison IMO though, much more so than the Romans or Alexander
  19. As you say apart from clothes and food, I reckon I buy virtually everything else on-line. Especially anything electrical, bought a small tele from Amazon for £249, was £349 in Currys

    Brilliant historical novel about Thermopylae, highly recommended for anyone who's interested - Gates of Fire by Steven Pressfield [
  22. AYe, that's him, I see he looks the part as well. There's an obesity epidemic at Talk Sport towers. They obviously live on good ole white-man food, pies, mash and chips etc, [talksport]none of that darkie fruit and veg rubbish !!!!!!![/talksport]
  23. John Gaunt Writes for the Sun and looks like a bloated Landan cabbie
