luckyluke 1 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 It's really striking how juvenile the language if the tabloids is, "farting" indeed. I read about Gus Poyet investigating "who did a poo" in the palace dressing room in the Sun at work. I know the readership isn't generally the brightest in the world but they're not five year olds.

NJS 4010 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 The recent adoption of "poo" is one of my major annoyances - as you say very juvenile - as if use of faeces/defecate would be beyond people. it would also provide the perfect response if someone did query the use of the proper terms - legitimate use of "you're as thick as shit".

I'm never surprised how thick great numbers of the population are but I don't think dumbing things down helps - I might be idealistic but we should be trying to drag them up.

The Fish 9240 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Dunno where some of our London based people live, but don't count on driving through Woolwich any time soon.

catmag 336 Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 There's been a police helicopter hovering over the hospital for about an hour in the midst of a fucking mental storm.
